... killed more of Joshua's enemies than did the battling Israelites. Velikovsky realized that these scientifically naive people could not have deliberately coupled a large scale meteoric shower with a disturbance in the Earth's diurnal rotation. Since meteoric showers, great and .small, are understood to be debris entrained by comets, Velikovsky took the next logical step by gleaning the Bible and associated Talmudic sources for evidence of a comet during Exodus and Joshua. It was then that the "mysterious pillar" became the tail of the protoplanet Venus. Velikovsky claimed: "Because of the proximity of the Earth, the comet left its own orbit and for a while followed the orbit of the Earth. The great ball ...

... to expect. Only a few reporters commented on the quasi-religious tone of the Velikovsky-Sagan exchanges, in which a patriarch, whose work aims, among other things, at restoring the importance and the truth of the Biblical account, faced a representative of a later generation of Jewish scholars, one who had turned away from the literal truth of the Bible in favor of a more modern account of the history of the solar system. That was how Donald Goldsmith remembered the event. (5 ) Ivan King claimed that Velikovsky made it "into a circus, including steps of intellectual dishonesty that are hard to believe.

Table 3 Chronological Inconsistencies in the Stratigraphies of Mesopotamia and Iran Note The chronologies of Mesopotamia, as well as Egypt and Syria/Palestine, are ultimately based on the Bible. The chronology of Iran however is based on classical sources. Mitanni and Medes From what has been said above it will be obvious that the Mitanni people, who controlled the whole of northern Mesopotamia and Syria during the time of the 18th Dynasty, must play a pivotal role in the realignment of world history. The stratigraphic evidence, ...
... interest lies in these ancient monuments because their numbers and distribution point ostensibly to the British Isles as the seat of their origin. We find them, however, especially cromlechs, in various distant parts of the earth, and what is most strange about it is that almost without exception they are non-existent in those very sites attributed to the early Bible and Greek peoples who erected sacred stones and altars to their gods, particularly to three among them, Saturn, Hercules, and Hermes. Furthermore the wide distribution of these un-hewn stones indicates the movements of the race which erected these characteristic monuments and points to the prehistoric activities of an adventurous and a maritime people who sailed far distances in ...

... believe to have been the overall average. There are, however, indications of occasional shorter periods after particularly severe catastrophes. Talmudic sources, for instance, suggest the time lapse between the Tower of Babel holocaust and the Sodom-Gomorrah event was 52, not 54, years.10 There are indications that the timespan of 40 years, which the Bible records between the Exodus holocaust and the Long Day of Joshua is a rough figure; my preference is about 50 years.
