... k'an juyjuy, "anger, wrath", and k'an tiktik winik, "red". Again we see a connection between the color red (and/or yellow) and "passion" or "sentiment" kinds of meanings, a metaphorical or semantic relationship not only verifiable with our own intuitions and metaphors, but also in the linguistic data of sound and meaning change implied by the fact that Arabic qaani?, "blood red, deep red", is cognate with Hebrew qannaa?, "zealous; jealous". Words sounding like kan and meaning "dog" occur in the Mediterranean region. Thus we have Latin kan-, kan-is, "dog" ...

... period when all kinds of new courses were being pressed upon universities and colleges; standards were in general decline. Professors were wringing their hands and burying their files for safekeeping. Yet they consistently rejected the advances (never mind seeking the help) of quantavolutionists who had more respect for the traditional research materials of the culture- in classics, linguistics, foreign languages, history of science, philosophy, etc. and whose attractiveness to students would have erected massive barriers against the anti-intellectual and book-condemning feelings rampant in student bodies everywhere. A score of teaching heretics had managed to insert V. s materials into their courses under various pretexts and in several cases could even carry his name in ...

... and very little introduction is required. So my remarks will be directed mainly at those who know something, of his work but perhaps not very much of the man himself. Immanuel Velikovsky was born in 1895 in Vitebsk, Russia; the youngest of three sons of Simon Velikovsky, businessman and Hebrew scholar, and Biela Grodenski, a fluent linguist. Moving to Moscow he enrolled at the Medvednikov gymnasium where he excelled in Mathematics and Russian and graduated with a Gold Medal in 1913. He then proceeded to Montpellier in Southern France to study Medicine, sojourned briefly in Palestine, then enrolled for further medical studies at the University of Edinburgh. Home for the summer vacation in Russia at ...

... millenniums, from the second half of the third to the last centuries of the first millennium B.C ." 27 Without doubt, the Chaldeans must have written thousands upon thousands of clay tablets, just as did the Sumerians. But as Edzard explains: "Apart from a few personal names and some place names — not yet analyzed linguistically — there is no known material on the language of the Kaldu."28 This, too, is so highly improbable that it again strongly suggests that the Sumerians are, as Heinsohn claims, the Chaldeans. 26 James et al., op.cit., p. 281 27 Samuel Noah Kramer, The Sumerians: Their ...

... of the archaeological evidence for pre-Columbian transoceanic visitors. In a small cave in Oklahoma, Sunrise rays on the cardinal day cast a pattern into the cave, bathing a correspondingly patterned inscription in its light. As with the West Virginia petroglyph, the inscription referred to the event. Over the years Dr. Fell has amassed a large amount of linguistic and other archaeological evidence pointing to the presence not only of the Celts, but of other ancient cultures as well. Many others since have joined the research and have forged firm links between ancient scripts and artifacts found in the Americas and those from across the seas. The evidence for widespread trade and colonization by ancient mariners reaches back centuries ...

(9 ) According to Whittaker, "[ m ]ost scholars say [the runestone] is linguistically not what it should be- the runes are wrong for the date given, and the language reflects the [19th] century heritage of a Swedish-American farmer." (10) He states that the stone "implies exploration of the interior of America by Vikings, a difficult task with little obvious motive." (11) If the ...

... not only to recall bygone terror and bliss, but to be fully aware of what they are recalling. Such lucid recall is what Plato called anamnesis, or full recovery of lost memory. CONTINUITY, DISCONTINUITY, AND REALITY The quantal view of our past is as different from the uniformist view as is quantum physics from classical physics or quantum linguistics (usually called structural linguistics) from pre-structural linguistics. But discontinuity is no less characteristic of experience than is continuity: together, they constitute the warp and woof of reality. When the portion of reality is taken to be its totality, remedial thinking becomes imperative. For as Oscar Wilde once remarked, our only duty to history is ...

128. Anomalistics - a New Field of Interdisciplinary Studies [Journals] [Catastrophist Geology]
... From: Catastrophist Geology Year 3 No. 2 (Dec 1978) Home | Issue Contents Anomalistics - a New Field of Interdisciplinary Studies Roger W..Wescott Dept. of Anthropology & Linguistics, Drew University Madison, USA. Anomalistics is the study of all kinds of phenomena that do not fit the pictures of reality provided by common sense or by the established sciences. Although the term is my coinage,1 the area of investigation which it designates is at least sixty years old. The precursory genius of anornalistics, as I define it, was the British geneticist John B. Haldane. Fond of commenting on "the inexhaustible queerness of things", he is widely ...

... connection that they wish to make. If, as they explicitly state, there are no Chaldean documents, on what basis can they compare Sumerian with Chaldean, except on the basis of their stated position? The modern scholar has numerous Chaldean and Sumerian names- personal, god, and geographical- on which to determine that there are no linguistic connections between Sumerian and Chaldean. 48b The "tendency to form local, independent statelets and to enter short-term and not always effective coalitions" does not describe criteria sufficiently unique to carry any convictions vis a vis the Sumerian = Chaldean relationship. Heinsohn-Marx must show that no two other peoples ever had such tendencies to form local independent statelets, ...

... undermining Rose's reliance on them. Since he cannot refute Rose's numbers, he begs the question and devalues their significance. In essence, Spalinger is really threatened by Rose's numbers, and he responds to those numbers by attacking Rose and his numbers, but without refutation via counter-numbers or – evidence, which reflects his attempt to suppress them. The linguist Noam Chomsky explained this behavior quite vividly: "In my own professional work I have touched on a variety of different fields. I've done work in mathematical linguistics, for example, without any professional credentials in mathematics; in this subject I am completely self-taught, and not very well taught. But I've been invited to universities to speak ...
