... symbol of the goddess Isis. (45) The dweller in the primeval womb is the captain of the ship. A survey of ship symbolism in other lands will reveal the same identity. The womb of the Sumerian Inanna is "a ship." (46) "The ship of the brilliant off-spring" was an epithet of the Babylonian goddess Bau. (47) In Hindu myth the goddesses Ila, Isi, Lacshmi, and Parvati are synonymous with the ship Argha, (48) transporting the great father (Manu, Shiva, Brahma) over the waters. Bergelmir- the Norse mythical giant- "was born in a boat" (49) (i ...

It is peculiar that also Babylonian and Sumerian mythology is silent upon the subject of the capture flood although, as is corroborated by archaeological evidence, out-runners of this flood overwhelmed the settlements which underlie the remains of Ur, Erech, Shurrupak, and other ancient cities of lower Mesopotamia. Possibly the (unfortunately somewhat vague) myths of the Sumerians relating to their former happy ...

... . And the shift of 1 degree in 72 years, piling up over centuries, will produce appreciable shifts in certain crucial positions, if the observers have enough intentness of mind and know how to keep records. The technique of observation was relatively simple. It was based on the heliacal rising of stars, which remained a fundamental feature in Babylonian astronomy. The telescope of early times, as Sir Norman Lockyer has said, was the line of the horizon. If you came to realize that a certain star, which was wont to rise just before the equinoctial sun, was no longer visible on that day, it was clear that the gears of heaven had shifted. If ...

... is simply "nothing." In apparent recognition of this anomaly, some scholars have sought to question the literal meaning of these epithets. (51) Saturn A survey of the Mesopotamian traditions surrounding the ancient sun-god reveals one anomaly after another. Most baffling, perhaps, is the identification of Shamash with the planet Saturn, widely attested in Babylonian astronomical texts. (52) In a recent study of astronomical conceptions in the ancient Near East, Koch-Westenholz summarized the several attempts to explain Saturn's identification as the ancient sun-god in these words: "Parpola suggests that this identification may be due to an association of Saturn's Akkadian name, derived from the root kun, with kittu, justice ...

... , flashes of lightning, and an earthquake."(2 ) Before analysing this passage, let us make an enquiry concerning the Hebraic institution of offering "incense" upon the "golden altar": "The offering of incense, or burning of aromatic substances, is common in the religious ceremonies of nearly all nations (Egyptians, Babylonians, Assyrians, Phoenicians, etc.), and it is natural to find it holding a prominent place in the tabernacle and temple-worship of Israel. The newer critical theory that incense was a late importation into the religion of Israel, and that the altar of incense described in Exodus 30:1 ff. is a post-exilian invention, ...

296. Nebuchadrezzar and Neriglissar [Journals] [SIS Review]
... evidence is that Neriglissar did restore the western wall of the palace, as he states in his building inscription, and that his work was done after Nebuchadrezar, as his bricks lay above those of Nebuchadrezzar [32]. As the fourth and last argument in support of his reconstructed order of succession for the Neo-Babylonian kings, Velikovsky quotes a Babylonian chronicle, BM 25124, dated to the third regnal year of Neriglissar. The chronicle describes a campaign against Appuashu, the king of Pirindu (a state in Anatolia). The reason was that Appuashu carried out a plundering raid in Syria, which caused Neriglissar to march out against him. Appuashu fled to his capital, Ura, ...

297. A Question of Logic [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... Series of New Dark Ages An examination of the information regarding identification of the Imperial Hittites as Chaldaeans is also suspect. What are Velikovsky's proposals for Hittite history? Before trying to untangle the confusion, I note that in a reply to Stiebing9 Velikovsky states, "Stiebing also commits an error by placing the Hyksos period as contemporary with the First Babylonian Dynasty (from Hammurabi to Ammisaduqa); the Hyksos period in Egypt followed the Middle Kingdom and is contemporaneous with the Kassite period in Mesopotamia." For the Hittites Velikovsky's advice to me10 is that "the Phrygians preceded the Neo-Hittite Empire in Anatolia," and also that "the Phrygians reached the Anatolian plateau in the eighth century. ...

Zedekiah ruled Jerusalem eleven years (c . 597-586 B.C .) before the city was taken by the Babylonians (2 Kings 24:8 ; 2 Chronicles 36:11). The city was besieged in his ninth year on the tenth day of the tenth month (2 Kings 25:1 ; Jeremiah 39:1ff.; 52:4ff.). In the eleventh year of Zedekiah, in the nineteenth year of Nebuchadnezzar, ...

Somehow a dynamic relationship is suggested between the two. The great Roman philosopher, Seneca, quoted his little known predecessor Apollonius of Myndus, who flourished in the 4th century BCE, to the effect that the ancient Babylonians described comets as bodies something like planets: Apollonius says that the Chaldaeans place comets in the category of planets and have determined their orbits ˙ 1 Le Boeuffle paraphrases Seneca: Il affirme .. . que les comPtes sont des astres qui, comme les autres ont un cours réglé par des lois constantes. 2 The decipherment of the cuneiform ...

The graphs in my paper produced three significant results: 1. the axis of the graph for the 20 years of Babylonian observations was horizontal, as for present conditions, showing that there was no mean variation of orbital movement during this period, 2. the axis indicated a mean value of 584 days synodic period for both present and Babylonian observations, indicating a Venus orbital period of 225 days for both cases, assuming the orbital period of Earth was unchanged ...
