My explanation of these various systems of celestial motions and positions was in harmony with what is found in the lore of other peoples of antiquity and was reflected in the calendar reforms of the Chinese, Hindus, Persians, Israelites, Egyptians, Mayans, and others- namely, that these systems represent true observations at various epochs, before and after the repeated disturbances of the seventh to eighth century B.C . I consider the parts of Worlds in Collision, pages 120-25,313-59, dealing with the calendar observances and reforms the ...

... the ocean but was drawn by Tefaafanau," relate the aborigines of Paumotu in Polynesia. The new isles "were bated by a star." In the month of March the Polynesians celebrate a god, Taafanua.(8 ) "In Arabic, Tyfoon is a whirlwind and Tufan is the Deluge; and the same word occurs in Chinese as Ty-fong."(9 ) It appears as though the noise of the hurricane was overtoned by a sound not unlike the name Typhon, as if the storm were calling him by name. The cosmic upheaval proceeded with a "mighty strong west wind,"(10) but before the climax, in the simple words of ...

... , and so governed this western border."(23) In China the annals telling of the time of the Emperor Yahou refer to the Valley of Obscurity and to the Sombre Residence as places of astronomical observations.(24) The name "shadow of death" expresses the influence of the sunless gloom upon the life processes. The Chinese annals of Wong-shi-Shing, in the chapter dealing with the Ten Stems (the ten stages of the earth's primeval history), relate that " at Wu, the sixth stem . . . darkness destroys the growth of all things."(25) Buddhist scholars declare that with the beginning of the sixth world age or "sun . ...

... abundance, in the chambers of their kings," and "there came divers sorts of flies, and lice in all their coasts." The Amalekites left Arabia because of "ants of the smallest kind" and wandered toward Canaan and Egypt at the same time that the Israelites went from Egypt toward the desert and Canaan. In the Chinese annals describing the time of Yahou, from which I quoted previously, it said that when the sun did not set for ten days and the forests of China were destroyed by fire, multitudes of loathsome vermin were bred in the entire land. During their wanderings in the desert, the Israelites were plagued by serpents.(81) ...

... , "deposited his seed in fire" and gave birth to Kumara who battled the great demon named Taraka that "troubled the world." The Babylonian astrologers ascribed to their planet-gods the ability to emit the sounds of different animals- lion, pig, jackal, horse, ass- and of two species of birds.9 The ancient Chinese likewise asserted that planets emit animal sounds when they approach the earth with a rain of stones.10 It is fairly probable that on some occasion the crash of the discharge "from the cloudless sky" sounded like Ta-ra-ka, the name of the demon who battled the planets. The Ethiopian king who went up against Sennacherib called himself Taharka ...
