... crowds of rivers seeking new beds, of sources that disappeared and others that became bitter, of great destructions in the animal kingdom, of decimated mankind, of migrations, of heavy clouds of dust covering the face of the earth for decades, of magnetic disturbances, of changed climates, of displaced cardinal points and altered latitudes, of disrupted calendars, and of sundials and water clocks that point to changed length of day, month, and year, of a new polar star. All this was presented in Worlds in Collision as having taken place in two series of events, the first in the fifteenth century before the present era, or thirty-four centuries ago, the other, ...
382. Early Attempts At Rationalizing. Ch.2 To Know And Not To Know (Mankind in Amnesia) [Velikovsky]
... ever, challenged in science), Herodotus visited Egypt and wrote down what he heard from the Egyptian priests and from the guides to visitors from other countries. As I was able to deduce from a multitude of sources from many parts of the world, the last major catastrophe took place on the twenty-third of March, -687 of the Julian calendar.[4 ] This was the night the army of Sennacherib was destroyed by a "blast", according to the Scriptures and the old Midrashim. But Herodotus heard from the Egyptians that when their king Sethos went with a weak army to Palestine to confront the Assyrians and their king Sennacherib, a multitude of field mice invaded the ...

385. East is East? [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... the Earth. In Mexican and Central American Mythology (by I. Nicholson, Hamlyn) there is a discussion of the Codex Fejervary-Mayer including the following passage: In the Codex painting, the centre is represented by the god Tepeyollotl, the Heart of the Mountain, one of the Lords of the Night who ruled over part of the Aztec calendar. Around this figure, the four Tezcatlipocas revolve. Curiously, however, while east is placed at the top of the page, north is to the east's right and not to the left as we would normally expect. Burland suggests that this is intended to be a night-time vision so that we ought to look at it as if ...

388. Comalcalco: A Case for Early Pre-Columbian Contact and Influence? [Journals] [SIS Review]
... by diffusionists', who believe that post-Beringian oceanic travel was undertaken by certain Old World peoples prior to Columbus and that there was trans-hemispheric contact and influence between the Old and New Worlds. The evidence for pre-Columbian oceanic contact, especially via the Pacific, is vast, stemming from anthropology, biology, botany, genetics, art, language, calendars, epigraphy and geography. It is complex and diverse, hard to recover and often ambiguous. The most competent investigators tend to be specialists who probe deeply into narrow aspects. Unfortunately, their communication with each other is restricted and their findings are not reinforced by other specialities, so each new discovery appears to stand as an isolated curiosity ...

... personal meetings are important to the purposes and method of the program, a number of adjunct instructors might be made available in various locations that are accessible to students not living within reach of the primary instructor. Every attempt would be made in advance to provide students with appointments at mutually convenient places and times with a traveling instructor. The flexible calendar of University College may permit these arrangements. For example, a student taking a course in Scotland, if the instructor is in America, or not "on circuit", might meet with an adjunct professor at a Scottish institution or another location nearer to him. An extensive bibliography is available for all of the listed courses. The ...

... in the number of days in a year may have occurred in historical times due to impacts by bodies of planetary size. It is unfortunate that even he did not appear to realize that Velikovsky was concerned with near-miss events, not direct collisions and certainly evidence seems far more convincing that the cosmic event in historical times which entailed changes to the calendars was a planetary near-miss, rather than the direct impact of a smaller body. In an end-of-chapter note he states: "The limited value of Velikovsky's theories will be discussed in a subsequent work." Unfortunately that work was never published. Bombarded Earth has many interesting photographs and diagrams. Maps are included, showing sites of possible meteoritic ...
