... actual process. He says that the "bicameral mind" as he terms it, finally broke down because world-conditions became unsettled and the gods that had satisfied the needs of the hallucinators such as Moses lost face. In reality it was the catastrophes of the world whose terrible stresses made hallucinatory leaders out of borderline cases and staunch believers out of normal people. (And elsewhere Jaynes makes this very point.) There is every reason to believe that long cycles of history occurred before the time of Exodus and Moses when there were "golden ages" of Saturn and Elohim, whose central and celebrated significance was the reduced role permitted to mosaic characters, that is, reduced schizotypical behavior ...
452. Perilous Planet Earth: Catastrophes and Catastrophism Through the Ages by Trevor Palmer. [Journals] [SIS Review]
... of the arguments that raged in the eighteenth and nineteenth century between the religious scientists, who accepted that the Earth and man's history was moulded by catastrophes brought about by the will of God, and the newer approach that was based on the idea that all changes take place slowly by mechanisms observably now. In geology this gradualism' approach is normally credited to Lyell and in biology it is credited to Darwin. Whilst giving full credit to their achievements, Palmer brings out the intensity of the debate and the contributions made by many scientists on both sides. To have gathered all this information in one book is a major achievement. There were, for me, many surprises. To ...
453. An Integrated Model for an Earthwide Event at 2300 BC. Part I: The Archaeological Evidence [Journals] [SIS Review]
... reported to be identical to the events in Anatolia and Greece. A summary statement is made by Thompson that ". .. the overwhelming observation drawn from both excavation reports and settlement patterns is that the end of the EBA was catastrophic, involving destructions of cities, widespread impoverishment, dramatic shrinkage of population, abandonment of large regions which were normally capable of supporting considerable populations by either agriculture or grazing, and the dispersal of population into areas which earlier had been wilderness and which were technologically difficult to farm." [37] At about this time, there is strong evidence of site destruction along at least a 100 kilometre north-south line on the eastern side of the Mediterranean in ...
454. Science Frontiers 1977-1978 [Journals] [Catastrophist Geology]
... work. [What a remarkable article to find in a magazine published by an organization that aided so materially in the attack on Velikovsky! Ed.] (Gould, Stephen Jay; "The Return of the Hopeful Monster", Natural History, 86:22, June-July, 1977). BLIND MAN RUNS ON LUNAR TIME A psychologically normal blind man, living and working in normal society, was found to have circadian rhythms of body temperature, alertness, cortisol excretion, etc., that were out-of-step with society's normal 24-hours schedule. The periods of these biological cycles were about 24.84 hours and indistinguishable from the lunar day. (How are these lunar influences communicated ...
455. King Ay and a "Tumult of Hatred". Part 2 (Oedipus and Akhnaton) [Velikovsky]
... stratagem of a temporary cession in favor of his brother. Then Tutankhamen was encouraged to meet his rival-brother in combat. No one who cared for the seventeen- or eighteen-year-old king would have sent him to the front lines, or even into a duel, but it served Ay's purpose perfectly. The succession of kings in Egypt was through the female line. Amenhotep III broke with this tradition by marrying Tiy, who was not a royal princess. However, Amenhotep III was himself of royal blood, whereas Ay was not and could not claim origin from Ra. He was concerned with this problem and he solved it. Tutankhamen died childless, after his wife had borne him two ...
456. Site Stratification: is it a Sound Methodology? [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... other fundamental methodological errors that have caused chronological distortions. Specifically, I questioned the twin concepts, so central to the relative dating' of archaeological sites, of a bronze/iron age progression in civilizations and site stratification [2 ]. Regarding site stratification', I argued that it is difficult to believe that the ancients, as a normal practice, would have erected cities or buildings upon the ruins of earlier cities or buildings without first excavating - a process which would eliminate earlier strata'. I suggested that no sane ancient engineer would have built a major building without first excavating to remove the rubble of earlier buildings. Without a solid foundation, buildings would sag or collapse ...
457. Recent Developments in Near Eastern Archaeology [Journals] [SIS Review]
... ANET pp. 287-8, 294]. The authors offer a compromise pronounciation for Achish/Ikausu as Akhayus' which suggests the meaning Achaean', i.e . the Greek' (p . 11). The word ptgyh is stated to be surely the name of a goddess of non-Semitic origin, perhaps some unknown Philistine or Indo-European female deity' (p . 11). Dr Rupert Chapman has made the interesting suggestion that the name is Greek and means Lady Gaia', i.e . the Greek earth goddess, thus perhaps relating back to the Philistines' early links with the Aegean. Alternatively it might be suspected that the yh ending was in some way ...
458. Nuclear Reactions [Books]
... radio-active decay) of unstable (or elements with emission of radiations. Such transformations (or transmutations) are called nuclear reactions. Nuclear reactions may also be produced by the splitting up of the nuclei of (even stable) atoms. This splitting up of nuclei will produce new chemical elements which are generally unstable and which will attain stability by normal decay. The `breaking up' (or rupture) of nuclei is called fission. Another kind of nuclear reaction consists in the combination of the nuclei of two chemically different atoms to form a new element which may be stable or unstable. Such a reaction is called fusion. 2. Fission may occur in two different cases: ...
459. Leonardo da Vinci: Rocks, Fossils, and Time [Journals] [Kronos]
... his technological knowledge and developed a passion for mathematics. For the most part, Leonardo da Vinci was a self-taught and sensitive individual. Yet, there is a distant and secret air in his unique and complex character. Although a handsome and strong man, he ignored the fair sex throughout his life (however, he did favour his two male servants Salai and Melzi). Leonardo's personal preference for the male gender provided Sigmund Freud with material for his unscientific and only study of paleopsychosexuality. The makeup of Leonardo's nature can never be more than dimly and incompletely conceived. To some degree, Leonardo da Vinci was influenced by seven major thinkers: Aristotle, Archimedes, Vitruvius, Pliny ...

Hathor of Denderah = Bouto of Unas. Hathor of Denderah = Sothis of Elephantine Hathor of Denderah = Apet Hathor of Denderah = Mena-t Hathor of Denderah = Horus (female) of Edfû. One variant is of especial importance in the present connection, and is emphasised in a special inscription in one of the chambers of the temple of Hathor- not, be it remarked, in the temple of Isis.
