... From: SIS Internet Digest 2002:2 (Dec 2002) Home | Issue Contents Is Rock Art a Sign of Universal Language?dsc.discovery.com/news/briefs/20020902/caveart.html [. .] "since there are so many visual similarities among prehistoric rock art around the world, it's likely that a kind of "primordial mother language," existed as Homo sapiens were getting under way "from which all the spoken languages developed," wrote Emmanuel Anati, founder of the World Archive of Rock Art, in a three-book series published recently by the Val Camonica Center for Prehistoric Studies. [. .] "Comparative analysis shows that ...
202. Compelling Insights: Concluded in Sorrow [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... : 1. Heinsohn, like Velikovsky before him, believes that planetary catastrophism continued into the historic period, with the greater portion of the mytho-historical record being attributable to that period. Contrary to this view, Cardona holds that planetary catastrophism came to an end before the mytho-historical period and that the greater portion of the mytho-historical record alludes to the prehistoric era. 2. Despite the above, Heinsohn and Cardona both believe that the ancient deities were personifications of the planets, as did Velikovsky before them. Zysman, meanwhile, differs by believing the ancient deities to have originated in a set of visual apparitions projected against the sky by comet-induced super-auroral displays. [3 ] 3. To ...

... models we have discussed here or if he is thinking of the model of Fomenko and other critical revisionists from Russia. Gunnar has covered so many interesting things that all problems which we discussed today, he understands what Russian researchers are doing and that these must be seen as relative problems. Remember, using Velikovsky's idea of Catastrophism he shortened the prehistoric time from 30.000 years to a very short period of a few thousand years, so 25,000 years have been cancelled, even more. We are forgetting that as it is not historical, it is the prehistorical world, but it is very important. The second step which was today presented to us by Mr Sweeney ...
206. On Number As Artifact: Part 2: Development [Journals] [Horus]
... human gestation. [5 ] The number 13 played a very significant role in Mayan culture These are not familiar numbers by present-day calendar-making standards. Where do they come from? How did the early scientists use them? An interesting study of Stonehenge by Alban Wall (HORUS, Summer 1985) suggests that Zuidema's 13 x 28 has echoes in prehistoric Britain: Many investigators of Stonehenge have pondered over why the number 56 was chosen in constructing the Sun (Aubrey) Circle.... 28 days and 13 cycles are whole number factors of 364 days. The 56 evenly spaced holes is twice 28 and simply subdivided the base cycle of 28 days in two. To count days ...

(See also, Update on Nabta, p.14). On a desolate plain in the Egyptian Sahara desert, west of Aswan, there is a very remote prehistoric site called Nabta Playa. There, a recently discovered complex of extremely ancient man-made megalithic structures have baffled the archaeologists who excavated them. An insight ...
208. A Comprehensive Theory on Aging, Gigantism and Longevity [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... size reductions. Many scenarios are tendered whereby man, with enormous population growth in some areas, systematically hunted the largest prey, obliging species to he "naturally selected" to an optimum (smaller) size. There are, however, severe problems with this hypothesis as well. To begin with, it is not at all obvious that prehistoric hunters were (a ) able, or (b ) inclined to kill the largest animals for meat. Keep in mind mammoths up to 15 and even 19 feet at the shoulders, bison 7 feet at the shoulders with horns to 10 feet in breadth, deer with 10-foot antler spreads, etc., with comparably increased fighting ability ...
209. Red Earth, White Lies, Native Americans and the myth of scientific fact, by Vine Deloria, Jr. [Journals] [SIS Review]
... facts, some new, others perhaps well known already to catastrophist readers but nonetheless refreshingly presented. Vine Deloria Jr. brings an open mind and a common sense approach, aided and abetted by an ironic turn of phrase, to the subject of North American Indian myth and its relationship to the current dogmas of human history, in particular the prehistory of man on the American continent. Although various sites in the Americas give dates which indicate that man could have been present on the continent for as long as 50,000 years, most archaeologists stoutly defend the theory that man only entered the Americas at the end of the last Ice Age, about 12,000 years ago, ...

... elsewhere in the Newsletter from time to time, as has been done in this issue for Franz Xaver Kugler. Information and suggestions from members will be welcome, and the correspondence columns - as well as the main pages of the Newsletter - are always open for discussion or further criticism of the items mentioned. COOK, MELVYN A.: Prehistory and Earth Models (Max Parrish, 1966) Cook argues that if the earth is millions of years old, all but the past few thousand years of scientifically readable prehistory have been erased, perhaps by world-shaping catastrophes. In substantiation, Cook discusses the observed imbalance of radiocarbon, the abundance and influx of uranium in the oceans and helium ...
