... , the moat forming blasts will not come statically from the centre of a large crater, but dynamically, with a rotary movement about the centre. Therefore I would expect some evidence of layered, non-radial ejecta just outside the crater rim, burying the rays which a few seconds earlier had pin-pointed the target for the return stroke of the interplanetary thunderbolt. Such a dark ring of ejecta around Tycho is easily visible from Earth, but may require an on-site inspection to detect the effect. However, while I wait for that, there is highly visible evidence for rotary arcing on crater floors in the form of arcuate rilles, running parallel with the crater floor-wall contact. By the way ...
352. Ice Cores and Common Sense Part 1 [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... or another. Critiques of the Worlds in Collision scenario began appearing even before its publication in book form. This may have something to do with the fact that Velikovsky never finished the books describing these earlier catastrophes, because they make Worlds in Collision look pretty tame by comparison. Some day his executors may release the manuscripts of Jupiter of the Thunderbolt and Saturn and the Flood. In the meantime, some articles in Kronos provide a few details. Ice cores also have implications for claims of these earlier catastrophes, which I will review here. Chief among catastrophes was the biblical Deluge, which Velikovsky ascribed to an explosion of the planet Saturn that he called a "nova." ...

354. Night of the Gods: Axis Myths [Books]
... ; and he rather thinks the trident was formerly not uncommon in Japan itself. The Gai-Bolga or barbed weapon of the Irish Cuchulainn, which he wields from below or from above, and with his feet or with his hands,20 seems to be an Axis-Trident, probably that double trident, North and South, which archaeologists call "the thunderbolt." When the Satyr attempts violence upon Amumone, daughter of Danaus and Elephantis, Poseidon throws his trident at him, and, missing the Satyr, implants the weapon in a neighbouring rock whence issue three water-jets (a Moses-miracle) that become the Lernian fountain.21 The (Phoenician colonial)"caduceus"of Carthage Y is ...
355. The Velikovsky Affair [Books] [de Grazia books]
... Herodotus speaks only of Typhon's place of burial, not of a battle.] THE TEXTS: I Velikovsky (Worlds in Collision, pp. 78-81): [The quoted sentence in Worlds in Collision follows almost three pages of a description of the battle between Zeus and Typhon, quoted from Apollodorus: Zeus pelted Typhon at a distance with thunderbolts... '] The Egyptian shore of the Red Sea was called Typhonia (Fn: Strabo, vii, 3, 8). Strabo narrates also that the Arimi (Syrians) were terrified witnesses of the battle of Zeus with Typhon... who... when struck by the bolts of lightning, fled in ...
356. A Harbinger of the Exodus? [Journals] [SIS Review]
... earth out of her place, and the pillars thereof tremble. Which commandeth the sun, and it riseth not; and sealeth up the stars. ' Sieff concluded that the writer of the Book of Job: "knew that the earth had suffered great global catastrophes, encompassing ice and water deluges .. . meteorite bombardments, earthquakes and thunderbolts, tidal waves and tides, orbital change, spin axis shift and mountain destruction. He further knew that these colossal events were connected with the movements of the planetary bodies observed in the plane of the ecliptic .. ." [63]. However, Sieff's stance was strongly influenced by reading Worlds in Collision: if writing today ...
357. The Ark in Action [Books] [de Grazia books]
... the cloud descended in the form of a mouse, a horde of mice would be drawn from the ground by the electricity. At all events, the Egyptians memorialized them by erecting a statue of a mouse (for they, too, opposed the Assyrians), at a city called, significantly, Letopolis, meaning "City of the Thunderbolt." At least two Greek towns were named Leptopolis (" Mouseville"). Josephus said that "Moses" should be written "Mouses."[80] This seems ridiculous; but let us ponder the matter. The usual Hebrew for Moses is "Mosche." The French version is "Moïse" but was once ...

... originated in the sky. [126] The Assyrians also extracted iron from ore, but, to them, the metal was said to have been "fragments from heaven." [127] In Egypt the name for "iron" was bia-en-pet or baat-en-pet, which translates as "metal of heaven" [128] (although "thunderbolt of heaven" has also been suggested). [129] And then, even if we were to grant Heinsohn the placement of the pyramids to a time-slot "after what is conventionally called the XVIIIth Dynasty," the problem would not be alleviated. As Adolf Erman showed, during that time, tools were still being constructed out ...
359. Velikovsky's Sources Volume Five [Books]
... to give brief biographical details of these so the reader can see that though they do relate to the glorification of the earth goddess etc, they do not relate very well at all to V's catastrophic scenario. Thus in v.6 and elsewhere we meet Indra, the god of the firmament, who is connected with clouds, rain, thunderbolts and storms. Insofar as he is noted for his continual fight against Vritra, the demon of drought (v .37), Indra is a god of battle as well as a god of rain. He forms a trinity with Agni (fire: see above) and Surya (the sun:v .24). The ...
360. Golden Age Canopy by Isaac Vail [Books]
... the serpent or dragon symbolized celestial waters, we simply have Tiharnat, the dragon of the deep and the source of the Chaldee flood, the same as the Hebrew Great Deep, which produced the Flood of Genesis. In other words, the watery foe of the Chaldee and Assyrian sun- god Bel, who finally slew the monster with a thunderbolt, was in Hebrew thought the Great Deep and I see no possible way of avoiding the proof that that "other deep" of the western Asiatics was the canopy, a watery heaven close to the earth. THE HIDDEN SUN. It is a very plain proposition drawn from the arguments thus far offered that the antediluvian sun was a ...
