... with other combinations at other eras) does nowadays appear to offer a more promising basis for ultimate understanding of very ancient history, though one must certainly concede that "astrological conceits" did also play a part in the shaping of history. Amongst the minor points cited by del Mar which appeal to the present reviewer is a hint that the Mayan people may have derived their name from Maia, the (? Indian) mother of the Gods. Del Mar's work abounds with such intriguing asides and there are doubtless many more such which will appeal to individual readers. I certainly recommend this book as a source of ideas' for all concerned with ancient history - but it does need ...

... centuries." Workman(7 ) even considers this great ash-fall could have caused migration and strife among the peoples of the sparsely populated interior, yet still it is forgotten. He considers the long term effects of volcanism on more populous and settled communities to be of no great significance. Another large-scale historic eruption was that of Ilopango in the Mayan highlands (now El Salvador) in the third century AD. Lava-like ash-flow occurred up to 43km away and ash-fall deposits almost one metre thick were found up to 77km away. Archaeological work(8 ) shows that the surviving highland Maya had to find refuge with those of the lowland and the highlands were not recolonised for 200 years. ...

... way in WORKSHOP, and evidently considered heresy, but to me, after a second careful reading, appearing a truly remarkable work. The second book is Otto Huck's The Secret of Atlantis' which I do not think has even been noticed in REVIEW and WORKSHOP despite its accent on catastrophism, and his deep knowledge of Sumerian, Semitic and Mayan sources. The third book is The Other Atlantis' by Robt. Scrutton, also treated, I fancy, in quite a sneering and offhand manner, again as heresy, though to my mind worthy of respect and careful thought.

... appearing to be their configuration. Figure 5, above, is from an unpublished manuscript from the 16th century. The goddess Hope wears a headdress of trismatic reeds. While still retaining their more traditional forebears, allegories such as Love, Hope and Charity became important gods or goddesses of the Renaissance. Figure 6, is my sketch of the Mayan goddess of corn from the Dresden Codex or Codex Dresdensis, a pre-Columbian Maya hieroglyphic writing which illustrates well how the trism form proliferates in certain works of art. Both the ear of corn that the goddess holds and the flame-like apparition on her nose are trismatic. Figure 7, is my depiction of a trismatic Egyptian lotus as it is ...

... stations) of the new moon and the distances our satellite covers from one new moon to another. My explanation of these various systems of celestial motions and positions was in harmony with what is found in the lore of other peoples of antiquity and was reflected in the calendar reforms of the Chinese, Hindus, Persians, Israelites, Egyptians, Mayans, and others- namely, that these systems represent true observations at various epochs, before and after the repeated disturbances of the seventh to eighth century B.C . I consider the parts of Worlds in Collision, pages 120-25,313-59, dealing with the calendar observances and reforms the most valuable from the point of view of science. ...

... and Uranus Frederic B. Jueneman, from Newark, California, writes: In relation to Eric Aitchison's piece on calendrics- "Historical Day Cycles and Ancient Calendars"- in AEON VI:2 , I might point out that at the 1980 Symposium in San Jose the question was raised during an informal colloquium as to the provenance of the Mayan 260-day calendar. I there suggested that the 780-day synodic period of Earth-Mars was the trine of this period, and that perhaps the Maya had a much deeper interest in Mars than we had previously suspected. (Also, as an aside, the prime number 73 is one-fifth of 365.) In addition, one could ask: Is ...

... and originality of your manuscript. Our basic reason for not going ahead is that we do not believe Worlds in Collision to be a book for the general public, and we are publishers of quite a small list aimed wholly at this market. The admirable erudition displayed in your discussion of Egyptian, Assyrian, Greek, Babylonian, Chinese and Mayan records does not seem to us in any way designed for the general reader but wholly for specialists. It seems to us that in its present form, the book would be an admirable one for the Smithsonian Institute [sic] or some university press to publish. A popular version would require almost literally a translation directed at the minds ...

... approximate" when describing alignments destroys their credibility. The claimed alignment of Teotihuacan on the setting of the Pleiades turns out to be "within I degree" of this event, a difference representing a sizeable slice of the horizon. Misunderstanding of archaeological data in this chapter results in Aveni using Flannery and Marcus' application of central place theory to Mayan settlements as evidence of geometrical and possibly astronomical location of these sites. Krupp's chapter on Egyptian astronomy, mainly descriptive of previous work, is followed by his attempt to debunk von Daniken and the rest. His handling of the leyline controversy and the Glastonbury Zodiac lacks conviction, since he frequently ignores the most obvious line of attack; for ...
