... the results not of vertically composed groups of experts of identical disciplines, but of horizontally organised teams able to produce less assailable, perhaps even watertight portrayals of a chosen theme. PETER JAMES: Walk, don't run I fail to see how Mr Marx can deny that a discussion of the revised chronology involving historical methodology, Biblical studies, Anatolian archaeology, Egyptology, Astronomy and Radiocarbon Dating is interdisdplinary! (And this, not counting the debate on celestial mechanics held the following day.) I am also curious to know what Marx means by "quasi-disciplined", particularly in view of his bizarre statement that the "Velikovsky Affair" has demonstrated that "the so-called scientific method is ...
662. Editor's Notes [Journals] [SIS Review]
... a major reappraisal by Trevor Palmer of the contributions and thinking of Darwin, Lyell and the other major Victorian scientists in the middle of the 19th century - developing the ideas outlined in his book Catastrophism, Neocatastrophism and Evolution. Benny Peiser questions orthodox thinking about the dating and origin of Homer, and Gunnar Heinsohn asks some awkward questions about the archaeology of the Middle East, focussing on the site of Hazor. Phillip Clapham suggests a radical solution to the identity of the mythical substance shamir and I have included a brief review of current debate on Einstein's relativity theory. This issue also features a major review by Geoffrey Gammon on David Rohl's A Test of Time, a book which brings ...
663. Editor's Notes [Journals] [SIS Review]
... From: SIS Chronology & Catastrophism Review 1998:1 (Sep 1998) Home | Issue Contents Editor's Notes Bob Porter's Special Report on Thera in this issue has potentially great significance for everyone working on ancient history (Recent Developments in Near Eastern Archaeology, p. 27). The eruption of Thera is a key marker in the history of civilisations around the Mediterranean and it gives the opportunity to link historical records and archaeological finds with the dates derived from tree ring studies (dendrochronology) and ice cores. The consensus' date for the eruption in recent years has been 1628BC - a date which suits the conventional chronology (although it is actually a little early for it) ...
664. Greek History Begins in the Sixth Century B.C. [Journals] [Aeon]
... C . J.P . Mahaffy (1882) (6 ) To this very day no other problem of Greek and, consequently, of ancient chronology in general might possibly be more controversial that the crucial question about the truthfulness and reliability of old-world chronology which was compiled and recorded for the first time by ancient historians and chronographs. The archaeological framework still is entirely based upon these decisive dates. Since chronography plays a fundamental role for national and religious identity almost every scientific attempt to separate the reliable from the implausible tradition, and correspondingly, to reject mythical accounts and dates has always been treated with hostility by the general public, scientists included. This is especially true for European ...
665. Archaeological Cover-ups [Journals] [SIS Internet Digest]
... From: SIS Internet Digest 2002:1 (Sep 2002) Home | Issue Contents Archaeological Cover-ups www.nexusmagazine.com/arcoverups.html The scientific establishment tends to reject, suppress or ignore evidence that conflicts with accepted theories, while denigrating or persecuting the messenger. Any time you allege a conspiracy is afoot, especially in the field of science, you are treading on thin ice. We tend to be very sceptical about conspiracies- unless the Mafia or some radicals are behind the alleged plot. But the evidence is overwhelming and the irony is that much of it is in plain view. The good news is that the players are obvious. Their game plan and ...
666. S.I.S. Spring Meeting, 1983 [Journals] [SIS Review]
... the consequences of his model (which can work equally as well within the accepted timescale for ancient Near Eastern history) first for revised chronology, and then for a catastrophist view of ancient history. It is usually thought that the Philistines arrived in Palestine at the end of the Late Bronze Age (conventionally 1200 BC) and that their earliest archaeological remains should be sought in Iron Age contexts. If the Philistines truly arrived at the end of the LBA, however, this would pose a grave problem for any variant of the revised chronology whether it be that of Velikovsky, Courville, the Glasgow model or the recently suggested James/Rohl version (SISW 5:2 , pp ...
667. Chapter 12 Pottery Dating and the Sumerians [Journals] [Velikovskian]
... to suggest sea travel between Ur and Egypt, again [the derived] chronology is based on Petrie's Abydos pots."1 That is, the form and style of pottery found in the Sumerian city of Ur dated to the third millennium B.C . was so similar in type to the pottery that Petrie found at Abydos that the archaeologists could suggest that there was sea travel between Ur and Egypt. But of greater significance is that they attributed these Late Helladic pottery forms, as Petrie did, to the third millennium B.C . Since Petrie dated Late Helladic pottery to the Old Kingdom, the historians and archaeologists dated it to the third millennium when they found it ...

669. Scarabs and Chronology [Journals] [Kronos]
... From: Kronos Vol. IX No. 2 (Winter 1984) Home | Issue Contents Scarabs And Chronology Immanuel Velikovsky Copyright 1984 by the Estate of Elisheva Velikovsky To realize the state of affairs in Egyptian and Palestinian archaeology, the following observation of C. C. McCown, who dug in Tell en-Nasbeh,(1 ) is worth considering; it is also symptomatic of all other places in Egypt and Palestine, and sounds very familiar to a reader of archaeological reports: "The scarabs and scaraboids [found in the place] are unanimously dated from the 18th Dynasty or later. Since, as all the ceramic evidence clearly indicates, Tell en-Nasbeh was not occupied until after ...
670. Earth in Upheaval by Immanuel Velikovsky [Velikovsky] [Velikovsky Earth in Upheaval]
... initial theory as a point of departure, Dr. Velikovsky presented in his second work, Ages in Chaos (1952), a reconstruction of ancient history. By its realignment of great segments of history, it enlarged the controversy as scholars from other fields joined the debate. In recent years a wealth of new finds in the fields of archaeology, geology, and astronomy have given dramatic support to the revolutionary Velikovsky theory. EARTH IN UPHEAVAL presents documentation of global catastrophes in prehistorical and in historical times — the clear, unequivocal testimony of bones and stones. Significantly, this evidence from the natural sciences indicates that these great disturbances which rocked our globe were caused by forces outside the ...
