... Poles twixt which this All doth on the Ax-tree move. (Drayton, Barons' Warres, vi, 5.) WE must now turn to the Axis as the trunk of the Universe-Tree, the Axe-tree as we might call it, reviving an old English alias for axle-tree. The Vedic habitable Earth is Jambu-dwipa, the island of the tree Jambu. Siva is the lord of the Jambu tree which is in the centre of the delightful plateau which in the puranas crowns the height of Mount Meru, the world-Tree which yielded the gods their soma, the drink of immortality. Its roots are in the underworld of Yama, it is so high that it casts the shadow on ...

... first time explained. The indication of the polocentric character common to the mythical systems of sacred geography among all ancient peoples will probably be new to every reader. The new light thrown upon such questions as those relating to the direction of the Sacred Quarter, the location of the Abode of the Dead, the character and position of the Cosmical Tree, the course of the backward-flowing Ocean-river, the correlation of the " Navels " of Earth and Heaven, not to enumerate other points, can hardly fail to attract the lively attention of all students and teachers of ancient mythology and mythical geography. To teachers of Homer the fresh contributions toward a right understanding of Homeric cosmology are sure to ...
7. Buried Forests [Journals] [Velikovskian]
... From: The Velikovskian Vol 4 No 1 (1998) Home | Issue Contents Buried Forests Charles Ginenthal One of the most significant forms of evidence for the timing of the last flood has to do with buried forests. No trees grew on the tundra during the last Ice Age. Large deciduous forest trees did not grow in North America, Northern Europe or Siberia because of the extreme cold at that time. Entire forests of such trees and others could not have been buried by floods, even from ice dammed continental glaciers during the Ice Age, since forests did not then exist in these regions. Furthermore, during the last interglacial, all the icecaps melted away and the ...

9. The Mixtec Tree of Origin [Journals] [Aeon]
... From: Aeon V:1 (Nov 1997) Home | Issue Contents The Mixtec Tree of Origin Ken Moss I was catching up on my reading one rainy afternoon (a not uncommon occurence in Vancouver) when I picked up one of Victor von Hagen's old accounts of Central American Indian civilizations. [1 ] Although his work is now somewhat dated, von Hagen remains an entertaining as well as an informative chronicler. In discussing various pre-Aztec cultures, von Hagen presents a diagram [2 ] that instantly grabbed my attention. It portrays a somewhat T-shaped structure that is broad at the base with a naked man emerging from a cleft at the top were the stem meets the ...

... the United States, W. Dort wrote that freshly slaughtered seals, when subjected to radiocarbon analysis, are dated at 1,300 years old. (5 ) In Science, M. Keith and G. Anderson wrote that shells of living mollusks were dated at 2,300 years old. (6 ) In The Physiology of Forest Trees, Bruno Huber wrote that wood from a growing tree was dated at 10,000 years old. (7 ) This is important because these living trees were growing next to an airport. The added carbon dioxide in the air produced by the planes' fuel exhausts made the living trees appear to be 10,000 years old. ...
