... in like manner was suckled by a goat, or a horned sheep as a Mycen~an carving shows, in the cave of mount Ida in Crete. Various cult animals were the wet nurses of gods and heroes. Romulus and Remus were, on the banks of the Tiber, suckled by a she-wolf beneath a milk-yielding fig-tree. A Chinese royal foundling was suckled by a tigress.8 The "bear-mother" was known even in America. In Greece the newly-born babe was given "fig milk"; in the Highlands of Scotland the "milk" of the hazel nut .was favoured, and elsewhere butter, honey, water sweetened with sugar, etc., are ...

... was what was done; and one of the main objects of this Inquiry is to identify the Polar Deity with the oldest, the supremest, of the cosmic gods of all early Northern the PoIar God with the Ptah of the Egyptians, the Kronos of the Greeks, the Shang-Ti of the Taoists and the Tai-Ki and Tai-Yi of the philosophic Chinese, with the Amenomi Naka Nushi of archaic Japan. This is attempted in the chapters concerned with the Polestar and the mythic sacredness of the North; where also the Eye of Heaven and the Omphalos myths find their local habitation. There too-at the end of the Axis-are placed those Triune emblems the fleur-de-lis and the trident, while the Axis ...

... a replica of the celestial power. Is it significant that he locates this supreme power at the celestial pole? Many centuries before Shakespeare, Hipparchus spoke of "a certain star remaining ever at the same place. And this star is the pivot of the Cosmos." That language turns out to be the very language used by the ancient Chinese in describing the pole star as the "star of the pivot." And this was anything but an abstraction, for Chinese astronomy insisted with one voice that the pivot was the ancient location of the celestial emperor Shang-ti, the ruler of beginnings. To the Polynesians the pole is the station of the "Immovable One." The ...

(32) The throne of the Hebrew El, whom the Greeks translated as Kronos or Saturn-is acknowledged to be "the pole of the Universe." (33) In Chinese astronomical traditions, Saturn is "the genie of the pivot" and identified as "the planet of the center, corresponding to the emperor on earth, thus to the polar star of heaven." (34) In neo-Platonist symbolism of the planets, the planet Kronos-Saturn is uniquely identified with the celestial Pole, or is placed " ...

... has been forty years, I suppose, in the making, but no doubt I could spend forty more upon it and still find each new touch suggesting and demanding yet another. The ten chapters of the work cover all the nations from whose literary remains we can hope for any important light on the worldconcepts of generations yet earlier. The Chinese are not included, for the reason that as yet the Sinologues have found in Chinese literature no system of cosmology clearly distinguishable from the Buddhistic and manifestly antedating it. Following the lead of my lamented friend, Mr. Terrien de la Couperie, an increasing number of scholars are coming to ascribe the beginnings of Chinese civilization to a pre ...

The ancient Chinese, however, produced figures which are somewhat more accurate than that, but they were also talking in terms of figures around 23 50-something. Figures that are too big by 10-15 minutes of arc, nearly a quarter of a degree, and we are only talking about the difference from the present back to this time, of about a ...

... and were replaced by what are the Sea of Japan and the south China Sea. The sinking was accompanied by powerful volcanism and by earthquakes. At about the same time, that is, towards the end of the Ice Age, the ranges of Indo-China and the mountains of Central Asia rose another 2,000 meters. Many generations of Chinese must have witnessed the gigantic geological changes in south-east Asia. It is these events that the myths about the struggle between the gods of fire and water evidently reflect. This is macro-geography, indeed. It speaks of a quarter of the world. Part of the world rose and part of it sank. The events described are probably much ...

This grand concept originated in remote times, from observation of the heavens and of nature- the rising and setting of sun, moon, and stars, the cycle of day and night, and the rotation of the seasons- suggesting the existence of laws of nature, a sort of divine legislation that regulated the pattern in the heavens and its counterpart on earth."(1 ) The following essay has, for the most part, been extracted from an editorial which appeared in ...
