81. Catastrophism And Planetary History [Journals] [Kronos]
... we almost always retreat immediately to the traditional view of human endeavors originating in their most significant form in the Tigris-Euphrates valley system thus continuing the outmoded and narrow articulation of our history as predominantly western European. Some historians attempt to dodge the question by suggesting that "history" does not begin until there are written records and while the Chinese and Mayans claim some credit in this department, again the development of historical knowledge is understood as the struggles and triumphs of western peoples. In surveying the written records little consideration is given to petroglyphs and pictographs of non-western peoples because of the inability of western scholars to decipher them. The added difficulty with non-western, non-literate representations of history is that ...

82. Quartered At Yale [Journals] [Kronos]
... many years. It is said also that a new bright star was born in the days of Yao. All this, I demonstrated in my book, has exact counterparts in Jewish legends and traditions, as narrated in the Scriptures, Midrash, and Talmud, relative to the time of the Exodus, and in Egyptian traditions (and in Mayan) as well. The sole difference is that according to the Egyptian source the sun remained below the horizon for nine days, causing the "Egyptian darkness" - or for seven days according to Midrashic tradition. This shows there was no borrowing by the Chinese from Egypt or Judea, nor the other way round, by Egypt or ...

83. Problems With The Morning Star [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... warrior in the east, and the Evening Star, or Bright Star, placed in the west, is called Mother-of-all-Things and associated with creation[6 ]. However, in Mesoamerica the main deity to be associated with the Morning Star is Quetzalcoatl and his characteristics are far removed from those we have considered so far. Quetzalcoatl, and his Mayan equivalent Kukulcan, as Morning Star appears to be a protective god because he precedes and therefore brings up the Sun[7 ,8 ]. The Pawnee similarly regarded the Morning Star, which they associated with the colour red[9 ]. Conversely they regarded the Evening Star as evil and dangerous as it pushes the Sun down and ...

... a pillar or cosmic axis. Then Mars was introduced as having the connotation "tree of life" or mountain or pillar supporting heaven, eg Sinai = Moriah? = Moreh = sacred tree. Moses received the Laws at the spring of Marah. Various other legends about Moses were mentioned i.e . his face shone (cf a Mayan tradition re a man's face glowed like the Sun); he was crowned as king or god with a crescent crown or horns (cf Michelangelo); he did not die but ascended straight to heaven; Samaritans equate him with the Messiah.

87. Before the Flood, There Was No Moon [Journals] [SIS Internet Digest]
... Flood. However, if there was no Moon, then maybe there was another celestial body to fulfil its functions? Other sources say that there used to be two or even several moons shining in the sky. It is not ruled out that those other Earth satellites were "in charge" of ebbs and flows. The people from the Mayan civilization left reports, in which they said that it was not the Moon, but Venus shining above them in the sky at night. Maybe, Venus was absolutely different back in those years? There was an ancient Roman historian who believed that the Great Flood was caused by the change of Venus' color, size, shape, ...

And most importantly, why do so many disparate and far flung ancient cultures, peoples who could never have been in contact with one another, such as the Sumerians, Egyptians, Chinese, Native American Indians, Mayans, Babylonians, Australian Aboriginals, and many others, all tell the same story and draw similar pictures. Planets in the Northern sky: If these ancient writings were based on valid observations rather than fantasy, what do they tell us? Cochrane, Cardona, and Talbott theorize that Earth formerly moved in an assembly of planets having no ...

90. Star Words [Journals] [SIS Internet Digest]
... relation between early words for "star" and Venus, since Venus presented the appearance of a giant star against the backdrop of Saturn. In this sense, Venus was the original prototype for "star" and could serve as the "star" par excellence in ancient nomenclature. As I have documented elsewhere, in various languages- such as Mayan and Polynesian- the word for "star" also means "Venus." Thus I would love to see Dr. Wescott (or anyone else) prove that the IE word "star" is cognate with Ishtar/Astarte. DAVE TALBOTT adds: Here is a personal opinion concerning S-T-R roots in the Indo- European languages. Virtually ...
