61. Ice Age Anomalies [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... 20,000 and 14,500 BC and apparently came to an end before the appearance of Clovis flint work in the Americas. This was a conundrum that Stanford could not explain away, in spite of the fact that most Clovis sites cluster in the SE United States, nearer to Europe than Asia. Clovis points were used to kill mammoths and other large mammals of the Pleistocene fauna. The flint work of the Solutrean culture people is found in northern Iberia and SW France, roughly where the Basques can now be found. The difference in dates between the two cultures has been seen by most people as an obstacle and a coincidence and they have ignored the similarities because of ...

... could make a hothouse world, those same vapors in their final collapse must have buried all but the medial latitudes in a snowy grave, and we have the most over-towering testimony that some of those tropic periods ended in the stern rigors of winter. Arctic Mammals. Immediately prior to one of the great ice periods the woolly rhinoceros and hairy mammoth, and their congeners, luxuriated in pastures, at least semi-tropic, under the arctic circle. Today they are entombed in ice and frozen earth on the very spot they lived. When we recall the fact that we can place no limit to canopy snows, we can readily understand why these huge quadrupeds are sealed away in the eternal ...

... ago, but no evidence of large movements of people. The discovery of a flint spear-point at Folsom in 1926, buried in a thick layer of clay, marks the final stage of a flint tool tradition that began with the Clovis projectile points. These first came to light in road construction works in New Mexico. They are associated with mammoths but lie below the Folsom level. The Clovis point is larger than the Folsom spear but both are fluted to allow a snug fit with the haft. No fluted flints have been found in Asia, so it is presumed to be an American home-grown technique. Clovis points were designed to penetrate the thick hides of mammoths and have been ...

... which cannot have been fossilised [before] the existence of the soil out of which [the shells were] dug....(11) If the oyster shells had turned to stone, then so would the strata in which they lay. The soil has not turned to stone and contains innumerable oyster shell beds, along with mammoth remains, which indicates that the mammoths and the shells were deposited together recently- most likely by a gigantic tidal wave sweeping up from the Gulf of Mexico. In Cuba, according to Horworth, the remains of a giant sloth, giant extinct rodents, a crocodile and a tortoise, Testudo cubensis, were found together with the relic of ...

... frankly, it would seem to be the only feasible explanation of some of the observed facts...."7 Some astronomers and geologists have not been timid and have now begun to say unabashedly that these megafauna were destroyed by cosmic catastrophes. Sir Fred Hoyle of England, a Nobel laureate, now claims, "Whole herds of mammoths perished all in a moment. They did so by a sudden melting of the permafrost on which they spent their lives, causing them to become immersed in icy water, which then refroze within a matter of hours. Only a blast of heat from the sky could have had such an effect, a blast such as occurred at the ...

... drilled down more than 4000 feet without reaching rock bottom [158]. Entire forests have been found buried in this area, including plum trees complete with their leaves and fruits [159] and also palm trees and huge exotic ferns [160]. Animals are also found buried in this muck, the most notable of which is the mammoth. As George Gaylord Simpson was astute enough to realise, catastrophic events at the end of the Pleistocene were not only much more severe in North than in South America, they also affected a much larger proportion of animals [161]. Now here is the puzzle. As one writer put it, how do you get that thickness ...

67. The Reality of Extinctions [Journals] [Aeon]
... like 70% of the large animals of North America were wiped out. In South America, the percentage was even higher. The mastodon, lion, saber-toothed tiger, giant armadillo, all simply disappeared from the face of these continents. They were not alone. At much the same time, in Europe, the woolly rhino and the mammoth became extinct; likewise the Irish deer and Irish sheep, and very nearly the European horse. At that time, the traditional end of the last Ice Age in Europe, man was still living in scattered winter caves, so it does not seem logical to blame a voracious human appetite for these disappearances. If we step back an ...

... From: The Velikovskian Vol 4 No 4 (1999) Home | Issue Contents PART III Pole Shifts And The Arctic Ocean Ice Cover Charles Ginenthal In my book The Extinction of the Mammoths I made my position clear regarding the reasons that the mammoths could live in northern Siberia during the hipsithermal based on the concept that the pole of rotation was at about eight to nine degrees from perpendicular to the plane of the Earth's orbit. 95 I also touched on this topic in my "ICE" paper. If the pole was much more perpendicular to the plane of the Earth's orbit, for the most part, the Arctic Ocean would have been entirely or mostly ice-free in summer and ...

... No. 2) but, contrary to the impressions given by some of Velikovsky's supporters, there are also some deductions which have been, if not disproved, at least rendered less likely. For example up to now I know of no carbon-14 dates which come anywhere near supporting the idea put forward in Worlds in Collision - that the Siberian mammoths were exterminated either in the 15th or the 8th centuries BC. All the relevant dates are far earlier and extend over many thousands of years. So far, however, the score of correct predictions is far greater than those that have been disproved. In summary, Velikovsky has achieved a remarkable success in forecasting otherwise unexpected scientific discoveries. ...
