162. Monitor [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... an American investigator, Dr. Eddy, into the history of sunspot cycles as evidenced by variations in the radiocarbon clock. It would appear that there have been major variations in solar output throughout history and that climatic changes have resulted. Corroborative evidence has been put forward by Dr. David Clark of the Royal Greenwich Observatory from analysis of old Chinese records, and also from the work of contemporary Chinese investigators. "Has the Sun Switched Itself Off?" asks John Gribbin in New Scientist 29/5 /80. He cites as evidence Dr. Eddy's interpretation of the records of the old Royal Observatory at Greenwich between 1836 & 1953. Their records of the position of the ...
163. Chronological Placements of the Dynasties of Manetho [Journals] [SIS Review]
... straight historical records. I suggest that Dynasties 1 and 2 have their genesis in the non-Egyptian ancestors of later Egyptian rulers. Full discussion of the chronology and location of the first two human dynasties of Manetho requires an extended analysis of the historicity of the Biblical and other literary/epigraphic accounts (Mesopotamian, Greek, Persian, Indian, and Chinese) of the Flood and a discussion of archaeological evidence. This is beyond the scope of the present paper. but the author believes that the first literate, advanced civilisation arose around 2000 BC in the Indus Valley (the Harappans'). Around 1700 BC, this civilisation was devastated by a flood of extended duration stemming from a ...

... all creatures, incomprehensible, appeared spontaneously. "Wishing to draw different creatures from his body, he first by thought produced the waters and deposited his seed in them. "This (seed) became a golden egg . . "( 27) According to the San-Wu Li-Ki, a 3rd century A.D . post-Han work, the Chinese also held a similar belief. Before Creation, according to this work, the primeval chaos looked like a hen's egg. After a very long period of time, this egg opened up and P'an-ku was born.(28) It was from the body of P'an-ku that the world and all its contents came into being.(29 ...

... before their descendants migrated back west. Northern Indians from the east New Scientist 8.3 .97, p. 9 The physical appearance of the people of northern India has led to the belief that their ancestry lies with western Caucasoid populations but this is belied by recent genetic studies which indicates that they have much more in common with the Chinese and Japanese to the east. Did apes descend from man?New Scientist 29.3 .97, p. 18 Two Australian researchers, using the molecular clock method of investigating when animal lineages split from each other, have come to the conclusion that humans and chimpanzees diverged later than the age of the earliest hominid biped, suggesting ...
166. The Sac and its Plenum [Books] [de Grazia books]
... aboriginal legends describe the heavens as hard, heavy, marble-like and luminous. Earliest humans were seeing a vault, a dome [34]. Probably in retrospect, to the heaven was ascribed the human qualities of a robe or covering, and, by extension, part of an anthropomorphic god. Thus, the Romans saw Coelus, the Chinese T'ien, the Hindus Varuna, and the Greeks Ouranos. Vail (1905/1972) presents ample evidence that day and night were uncertain and that the heavens were continuously translucent. When Hindu myth says that "the World was dark and asleep until the Great => Demiurge appeared", we construe the word "dark" as ...

... Persians.(8 ) "Bahman Yast," one of the books of Avesta, counts seven world ages or millennia.(9 ) Zarathustra (Zoroaster, the prophet of Mazdaism, speaks of "the signs, wonders, and perplexity which are manifested in the world at the end of each millennium."(10) The Chinese call the perished ages kis and number ten kis from the beginning of the world until Confucius.(11) In the ancient Chinese encyclopedia, Sing-li-ta-tsiuen-chou, the general convulsions of nature are discussed. Because of the periodicity of these convulsions, the span of time between two catastrophes is regarded as a "great year." As during ...
168. The Evolution of the Cosmogonic Egg [Journals] [Aeon]
... was in the beginning a double principle: Aether and Air. Then came the Wind and afterwards the two winds Lips and Notos; later Oulomos (the Ages) and still later Chousor, the Opener, and the Egg. (5 ) According to a 3rd century A.D . post-Han work known as the San-Wu Li-Ki, the Chinese also held a similar belief. Before creation, according to this work, the primeval chaos looked like a hen's egg. After a very long period of time, this egg opened up and P'an-ku was born. It was from the body of P'an-ku that the "world" was said to have come into being. (6 ) ...

... "dark chaos" presiding as the ruling principle before creation. (41) This is similar to what the Roman Ovid had to say concerning the creation as believed in by his countrymen. "All nature was Chaos...Earth, Air, Water heaved and turned in darkness..." (42) Likewise, the Chinese philosopher Lao-tze (Lao-tse or Lao-tzu) had it stated that: There is something chaotic yet complete which existed before heaven and earth. Oh how still it is and formless, standing alone without changing, reaching everywhere without suffering harm. Its name I know not. To designate it I call it Tao. (43) Or, ...
170. The Crescent [Books]
... " The identity prevails not only in the advanced civilizations but among primitive races also. The Maori identify the "moon" (Hine, or "the Woman") with the earth. So do Caribbean natives- and this identity corresponds with the overlapping personalities of the "moon" and "earth" among the Mexicans, Chaldaeans, Chinese, Hindu, Greeks, and northern European races. Briffault confesses the irrationality of the equation: "The Greeks expressly called the moon a heavenly earth' and a part of the earth. ' That persistent identification of the moon with the earth would be unintelligible in peoples ignorant of modern astronomical conceptions, let alone in uncultured races such ...
