... yet know. As a matter of fact, we know very little yet about the events and changes that took place when the dinosaurs felt the disastrous effects of falling bodies from outer space. But name me a field of learning, and I will give you a suitable subject for a dissertation in that field on a problem of quantavolution. Linguistics, for another instance, finds every language loaded with ancient words of disaster and electricity and punishing gods. A study by Hugh Crosthwaite tells us that about 15% of the words of Hebrew, Latin, Greek, and Egyptian are connected in some fashion with electricity. Quantavolution is not a theory that I can express mathematically. It ...
312. The Domination of Astronomy Over Other Disciplines ... [Journals] [Kronos]
... the units are the departments or disciplines themselves. The political form that we find here is doctrinal monarchy: Urania, or astronomy, has long been enthroned as the queen of the sciences'. This monarchical rule by astronomy is not restricted to the so-called natural sciences', but extends also to such departments of knowledge as folk lore, linguistics, art history, Egyptology, psychoanalysis, and even philosophy. (All of these, for purposes of this paper, will arbitrarily be called sciences', since they are included in the domain over which astronomy is said to be queen.) Let us take a closer look at the background of this monarchical structure within science, ...
313. Eastern Anatolia and Velikovsky's Chronological Revisions - II [Journals] [Kronos]
... Mitanni, strongly resembles Na'iri, the earliest Assyrian name for the Armenian plateau in the pre-Urartian period. As for the Kashkaeans, we have no evidence for their role in the destruction of the Hittites beyond the fact that they were constantly at war with them; the identification of the Kashkaeans with the Colchians is based on the belief of certain linguists in the existence of a phonetic shift from sh to l, a shift by no means universally accepted. It is also worth noting that Assyrian annals of the eighth-seventh centuries B.C . contain numerous references to the Kashkaeans, e.g . Tiglath-Pileser III accepted tribute from King Dadilu of the Kashka among other kings of eastern Anatolia ...
314. On Saturn And The Flood [Journals] [Kronos]
... with the Deluge. This catastrophe is said to have taken place during the Satya yuga, in the reign of Satyavrata, who is usually identified as Saturn. Actually, it becomes apparent that the whole epoch named Satya yuga was the Age of Saturn as well as of the Deluge. Sir William Jones, who occupied himself mainly with comparative linguistics and with Hindu lore, expressed this very thought. He wrote that the Satya yuga meant the Saturnian Age, and that this was the Age of the Flood.(5 )] Also in the Mexican codices it is said that the first world age, at the end of which the Earth was destroyed by a universal deluge, ...
315. Monitor [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... , p. 17 Ice age carnivores trapped in the tar pits at La Brea, California, greatly outnumbered modern carnivores in their proportion to their prey. Now studies of the rate of breakage of their teeth indicates that competition for prey really was a reality. ANTHROPOLOGY Polynesian origins New Scientist, 10.7 .93, p. 17 Linguistic and archaeological evidence suggests that the Polynesians came from the Lapita culture, who in turn had come from Southeast Asia. DNA studies relate the Polynesians to people of Southeast Asia but not to the Lapita culture. The latter appear to be more related to the Melanesians instead. Back to the trees New Scientist, 10.4 .93 ...
316. Catastrophe and Divine Fires [Books] [de Grazia books]
... stroke made its target sacred and approachable only by one of the powerful priesthood; today every eminence in Tuscany seems to reveal to the aerial infra-red camera a ruined development beneath its soil. The Etruscans gave the Romans Jupiter, who was Jove or Ioweh or, who knows, Yahweh; they originated in the Near East and some of their linguistic roots are in Sumer, their blood types resemble an Anatolian group, and they possessed creation and flood legends strikingly like those of Genesis. Throughout the world, altars were placed on eminences, where a "priesthood of the mountain" would collect and administer static electricity in the course of its rituals, orgies, and oracles. These ...
317. Comalcalco: A Case for Early Pre-Columbian Contact and Influence? [Journals] [SIS Review]
... , through central Europe and the Mediterranean, to western and northern Europe. According to Gimbutas, as the Old European peaceful, sedentary culture, with highly developed and long-standing traditions in agriculture, sculpture and architecture, became threatened and ultimately overtaken by a very different Neolithic people originating in the Volga basin of South Russia which, by means of linguistics and mythology, has been identified as the proto Indo-European culture, the Goddess religion and its symbols survived as an undercurrent in many areas'. The outcome of the clash of Old European with alien Indo-European religious forms was not a replacement of one culture by another, but a gradual hybridization of two different symbolic systems'. Although the ...
318. Plagues and Comets [Books] [de Grazia books]
... wanted the Hebrews to go out to the desert to sacrifice their first-born to him. The Pharaoh was frustrating this appetite of the god and hence Yahweh turned upon him to kill his first-born. This story, ways Gressmann, can be composed from the most ancient sources of the Old Testament [45]. Velikovsky sought to solve the riddle linguistically. Thus, Yahweh decrees that he shall kill the first-born of all of Egypt, from the Pharaoh to the maidservant, not excepting the cattle. Moses passes the word along; Pharaoh again refuses; the event occurs as predicted; the Pharaoh accedes to the departure from Egypt. Velikovsky finds a link between the almost indistinguishable Hebrew words ...

... past. Then we shall discover a human settlement older than 687 B.C . that has not suffered natural disaster in its history. We should also be able to produce fairly soon at least one test of time that can tell time for at least 30,000 years without being based upon uniformitarian premises. Also, some ethnologists or linguists or mythologists should be able to prove that none of your gods are clearly defined and therefore we do not really know whether they have had careers' such as you have given them. Certainly, nobody who reads this book should become a quantavolutionist in consequence. There are too many unanswered questions in it, even if one were to ...
320. Saturn's Children [Books] [de Grazia books]
... . In each of these three races, the surviving strains that rapidly bred were partly related to some common Uranian ancestors. Although they developed many special features they were still possessed of the basic schizoid humanness that incorporated the methods of survival in its madness. The population of Saturnia was large. It developed religious, political, artistic, and linguistic forms that were to persevere through the ages until the breakthroughs of enlightenment and science in the 6th century B.C . (2 ,600 B.P .) in China, India, the Near East and Mediterranean; that is, until the end of the Martian terror [26]. The archaic Mesoamerican cultures that Spinden ...
