... the island. The founding of Segesta was dated by tradition to the years following the Trojan War, and was ascribed to a Trojan named Aegestes.(24) The eighth and seventh-century Geometric pottery from Segesta displays startling Mycenaean influences. "A good example is the schematized drawing of a bull, moving from the left to the right with horns butting against an unidentified object. This motif was a common one on Mycenaean and, more generally, Aegean pottery." Other motifs of Mycenaean derivation include stylized floral patterns and tassels with meandering lines; these motifs "are not paralleled in Geometric pottery".(25) The examples are many; and they are all the more ...

... of its symbols. It would be rash therefore to assume that the spiral was an exception to this rule. All symbols did not originate in the same way. Some were conventionalized natural subjects, or conventionalized living creatures, or simply characteristic features of these objects or creatures, such as a leaf or branch representative of a tree, the horns of an animal like the ram or deer, the wings of a sacred bird like those of the falcon in the Egyptian "winged disc", or merely a feather of a bird, or the impression of a "bee's foot" to convey the idea of the presence of a god, as a Buddha footprint conveys to Buddhists ...

... is recognised, by N.J . Higham for instance (The English Conquest, Manchester University Press, 1994), as remaining basically Celtic until a late date. Quite a large prominent enclosure overlooks the London to Oxford road, and this is associated with an old legend which involved a herd of bulls with lighted torches tied to their horns being driven along an old lane towards the Camp (as it is known). Hearing this story from an old biddy, I looked around and noted that on a nearby hilltop there is a Bulstrode House, formerly the home of the notorious Judge Jeffries. Nearby is a Bulstrode Court and a Bulstrode Way, Bull Hotel and Bull ...

... inscriptions might be quoted similar to the following one: - - "Salute a te, Hesiri, il signore dell eternitá. Quando tu sei in Cielo, tu apparisci come sole, et tu rinnuovi la tua forma comme Luno." [2 ] It has also to be borne in mind that the complicated headdress, including the goat's horns, is represented in connection with Thoth Chnemu and Osiris. [3 ] Later he was unquestionably a sun-god, but this would be certain to happen if the southern intruders worshipped the moon in the first line. Further, if in later times he represented both sun and moon, as he certainly did, it is not probable that ...

... rays of the sun, with H escaping- actually hydrogen has been observed in Venus' upper atmosphere. Whereas Venus' atmosphere is oxidizing, its upper atmosphere is reducing- a fact which when first discovered, seemed surprising (14). This also explains why only a small quantity of water is present in transition between the two reactions. The horns of Venus Another process possibly occurring on Venus is a bacterial transformation of hydrocarbons into carbohydrates and proteins (previously discussed by me in 1951, prior to the conversion of asphalt into food products by a similar action.)

... along the way. Hence, a ban on eating beef in everyday life in southern Madagascar may simply be a facet that has survived the millennia – a little like restrictions on the eating of pork by Jews and Muslims – and may only be a tiny fraction of myth that may have seen cattle as intermediaries, or avatars, of a horned god and suitable as sacrifice to such a god (see also Forum section, SIS Review VII:A , The Domestication of Cattle', by Jill Abery). It seems to be a little too glib to see, in modern tribal belief systems, a timeless connection to our own Stone, Bronze and Iron ages, as ...
