... . David Rohl: The Greek Colonisation Movement - When and Why? 9 In exploring the reasons why the ancient Greeks went overseas, founding colonies in the Aegean and Italy, David Rohl also asks the question when they did so. By removing the Dark Age and adopting a low chronology, he is able to solve many current problems and anomalies. Dr Trevor Palmer: The Erratic Descent of Man 14 In studying the evolution of one species there are lessons to be learnt about evolution in general. Here, Dr Palmer concentrates on Man, discovering that although Man has been particularly extensively studied, surprisingly few firm conclusions can be drawn concerning his descent. Dick Atkinson: Interdisciplinary Indiscipline ...

... theory, which underpins modern Continental Drift theory, even granite will flow like a liquid given enough time. Prof Cook offers his alternative based on the science of rock mechanics, a rapid split of the primordial super-continent. Bob Porter: The Archaeology of Shiloh and Pottery Chronology 21 Bob Porter examines the excavation reports for Shiloh, noting some chronological anomalies. In resolving these he produces a radically new interpretation of pottery chronology for the MB/LB/Iron ages. Horizons: 1991 ISIS Fellowship Lecture given by Prof Manfred Bietak 28 Jesse Lasken: Should the European Oak Dendrochronologies be Re-examined? 30 In the first of three articles reviewing dendrochronology and calibrated radiocarbon dates, Jesse Lasken questions the ...

... of the Society for Interdisciplinary Studies 1992 Issue (Volume XIV)Contents John D. Weir: The Venus Tablets and Climate 2 The Ninsianna tablet observations are re-examined taking into account climatic factors which might have influenced ancient sightings of Venus. The data would support a change in the latitude of Babylon since ancient times. Ian C. Johnson: Anomalous Occurrence of Crocodilia in Eocene Polar Forests 7 The first of two articles on the curious flora and fauna of the Canadian High Arctic islands in the Eocene epoch concentrates on the flora. How did abundant vegetation grow at polar latitudes? Conditions which might account for the pattern of plant life would be lethal to the fauna, which included reptilians ...

... their observations, which seems to coincide with that of the Panchasiddhantika and the construction of megalithic monuments such as Stonehenge. The reality of a one-time 360 day year is confirmed. The Ninsianna tablets record a series of catastrophes of extra-terrestrial origin in which Earth's spin rate altered and there was a mild Solar System expansion. Ian C. Johnson: Anomalous Occurrence of Crocodilia in Eocene Polar Forests 7 The second of two articles on the curious flora and fauna of the Canadian High Arctic islands in the Eocene epoch concentrates on the fauna. The conditions required for the survival of the flora in polar latitudes would result in often-freezing winter temperatures and prove lethal to much of the fauna, but especially ...
365. Velikovsky & Saturnists & the Gods [Journals] [SIS Internet Digest]
... 00:28:16 -0500 On September 23rd, Tim Thompson offered a lengthy reply to Ian Tresman in which he discussed the Saturn-thesis at some length. Here I would like to offer the following remarks in an attempt to clear up some of the misconceptions present in Thompson's discussion of our position. Although it is fair to say that the anomaly surrounding why distant points of light were identified with the greatest of gods is central to Velikovskian thinking, it is not correct to say that this is the major motivation for the Saturn myth. It isn't. Rather, it is the combined weight of many different lines of evidence that form the basis and motivation for the Saturn-thesis. Here ...
366. Seeing Red: Book Review [Journals] [SIS Internet Digest]
... . It is not surprising that the consequences of the total destruction of all their present smug certainties is too horrible for astronomers to contemplate. They react to the evidence ". .. like people viewing a grisly automobile accident .. ." , Arp writes. To complete the ruination, Arp then demonstrates that some stars also exhibit redshift anomalies. So we don't understand stars as well as we thought either. Concerning the birth of stars, the standard model requires the collision of clouds of dust and gas. "Now my co-author, Jack Sulentic, and I were disrespectful enough to suggest that smashing two lumps of gas together was the worst possible way to make stars. ...
367. The Time Detectives by Brian Fagan (Reviewed) [Journals] [SIS Review]
... variety of peoples and locations, such as the Anasazi people of the Pueblos and the Chumash of California. The latter developed a society adapted to fishing and Fagan describes how archaeology has catalogued their gradual transition from hunter-gatherers into a progressively more technical boat-builders. As the population grew, the annual catch had to keep pace. During phases of climatic anomaly, the fish shoals changed their habitat and the Chumash had to hurriedly adapt, building boats to go further out to sea. Fagan also claims there is evidence of syphilis endemic among the Chumash hundreds of years before contact with Europeans, contrary to recent claims that seek to trace spread of the disease in the opposite direction. There is ...
368. On Number As Artifact (Part 1: Introduction) [Journals] [Horus]
... . The synodic month of approximately 29 ½ days represents the period during which the moon returns to the same position with respect to the sun. The sidereal month, about two days shorter, refers to the time in which the moon returns to the same position with regard to the stars. There are also the draconitic, month, the anomalistic month, and so on, each measuring a somewhat different aspect of the lunar cycle. One society or culture might base its principal lore and behavior upon sidereal measurement of the moon, whereas others might choose the synodic period. These might cause remarkable divergence in cultural norms, but the phenomena themselves remain unaffected. The "Pythagorean scale ...

... extinction of prehistoric fauna due to celestial bombardment has now captured the imagination of scientists and laymen alike. Yet Peter Michael James is of the opinion that, while these extinctions were the result of catastrophic events, they were caused by an entirely different mechanism. Page 67 Whence Homo? Man's family tree is examined by James Strickling who points out anomalous evidence in the presently accepted system of evolutionary descent. Page 75 Alexander and the Amazons: Ancient Belief and Modern Analysis Did the Amazons ever exist? If not, why was their meeting with Alexander the Great recorded by ancient authors? Tammy Jo Eckhart analyzes Classical sources and comes up with the logical answer. Page 87 The Book Shelf ...
