22. Cataclysms of the Earth [Books]
... the formation of carbohydrates in the chlorophyll containing tissues of plants exposed to light. Coal is a mineral rock that was once vegetable matter and is found sporadically in all parts of the world, at different depths in successively created strata of the earth. The minerals silica and calcium are now found associated with former vegetation in the form of petrified trees and granitic rocks. Silica sands and calcium limestones are created in the oceans. The association of these minerals can be explained as being one result of the recurrent great cataclysms of the earth; these occurred when polar areas, overburdened by ice, rolled to the tropics and tropical areas were moved to the poles, and, they marked ...

24. Part III: The Legends [Ragnarok] [Books]
... can stop the growth of the ova within her, or arrest the fever in the blood which forces her to incubation. The man who wrote the Shakespeare plays recognized this involuntary operation of even his own transcendent intellect, when he said: "Our poesy is a gum which oozes from whence is nourished." It came as the Arabian tree distilled its" medicinal gum"; it was the mere expression of an internal force, as much beyond his control as the production of the gum was beyond the control of the tree. But in primitive races mind repeats mind for thousands of years. If a tale is told at a million hearth-fires, the probabilities are small, ...
25. Maya Cosmos: A Saturnian Interpretation [Journals] [Aeon]
... /or observation of current celestial occurrences. They have made the common and fatal uniformitarian mistake that the tranquil sky of the present day is the same as that of the past. If their theory becomes generally accepted, all new discoveries will be viewed through very narrowly focused uniformitarian glasses. Instead of reading about the Cosmic Serpent, the World Tree, and the portal to the Otherworld in the proper context intended by the ancient Maya, we will be obtaining mundane translations that refer to the ecliptic, the Milky Way, and the Zodiac. [4 ] More will be said about this later in the Appendix. Actually it amazes me that mythologists can read myth after myth about ...
26. The Cosmic Double Helix [Journals] [Aeon]
... of the caduceus was a luminous column entwined by a double helix, not unlike the structure of DNA. This marvelous apparition in the sky was perceived by peoples in all corners of the globe. Various cultures expressed it in different symbolical ways. As is now commonly accepted in mythological literature, the world axis itself was frequently represented as a tree, a mountain, a pillar, a torso or spine, a serpent, or indeed a staff, to mention only a handful of some of the best-known images. The double helix spiraling around this column was symbolised as a pair of intertwined serpents in an overwhelming majority of cases, but I will demonstrate that it was also represented ...
27. The Spring Of Ares [Journals] [Kronos]
... of Mars in Mount Mamre, a name which cannot help but recall that of Mars/Mamer(s ). According to Genesis, it was on the site of Mamre that Abraham established his dwelling, in the form of a tent.(16) The site of Mamre was also renowned in Hebrew tradition because of a mysterious oak tree (or grove) which was said to grow there, a tree which scholars have recognized as being, in some sense, sacred.(16a) Of this tree, Josephus remarks that it had been around since creation.(17) One cannot avoid the suspicion that a valuable tradition has survived in the Mount and/or ...
28. Chapter 4 Scientific ? Radiocarbon Dating [Journals] [Velikovskian]
... problem facing this dating method: "[ A radiocarbon date] does not date a site or a grave or a level. The date is that of the sample and it is the task of the archaeologist to discover the true relationship between the sample and the area or place it came from."40 In this regard the provenance of trees for wood takes first place. If a piece of wood is found at a site in the ancient Near East one would have to know when the tree was cut down, how old it is, how long after it was harvested it was incorporated into the building site or elsewhere, and how many times it was 39 R. ...
29. The Legends of the Jews: Volume I - Adam [Books]
... fire; as I shall create the fowl of the air and the fishes of the sea, so I will do for Israel- I will bring quails for him from the sea; and as I shall breathe the breath of life into the nostrils of man, so I will do for Israel- I will give the Torah unto him, the tree of life." The angels marvelled that so much love should be lavished upon this people of Israel, and God told them: "On the first day of creation, I shall make the heavens and stretch them out; so will Israel raise up the Tabernacle as the dwelling-place of My glory. On the second day, I ...
30. The present state of Radiocarbon Dating [Articles]
... 03. What this means in practice is that the date of 800 BC published in Radiocarbon using this old half-life, is actually a date of 880 BC [? ?? according to my calculator, that's 824] , so we are already talking about quite a difference that needs to be accounted for. The third is that measurements of tree rings have suggested that the cosmic rays which produce this carbon 14 isotope have varied in the past and thus that the production of carbon 14 has not been stable and therefore that the carbon 14 dates need to be adjusted to take account of this. I will be dealing with this question in a lot more detail in a few minutes ...
