A comparable context was envisioned by Giorgio de Santillana and Hertha von Dechend. In their book, Hamlet's Mill, they deduced a sophisticated prehistoric knowledge of astronomy from myth.(2 ) In their attempt to reconcile the attributes of mythical figures, a Chinese source confronted them with a baffling link between the planet Saturn and the Celestial Pole. They asked: "What has Saturn, the far-out planet, to do with the pole? " (3 ) This problematic theme was used as one of the foundations of reconstructed myth by David Talbott in his book, The Saturn Myth.( ...

... terms of the "cometary" origin of Venus, out of Jupiter, around which the Velikovskian cult has grown up." Mr. A Beal of "Newcastle under Lyme sends the following account of his recent correspondence with New Scientist . "The N.S . of 26th. June was of particular interest - an article on early Chinese astronomy, which observed, Especially in the earlier dynasties, most of the calculated eclipses missed the Earth completely and scarcely any were visible in China! ' However, more important were articles on the discovery of radio noises from Jupiter ( 'Jupiter rides the waves') and a piece on Pioneer radio mapping of Venus ( 'Venus ...
... the constellation. 241 All "change stations" are found invariably in two regions: one in the South between Scorpius and Sagittarius, the other in the North between Gemini and Taurus; and this is valid through time and space, from Babylon to Nicaragua [n19 The notion is not even foreign to the cheering adventures of Sun, the Chinese Monkey (Wou Tch'eng Ngen, French trans. by Louis Avenal [1957]). One day, two "harponneurs des morts" get hold of him, claiming that he has arrived at the term of his destiny, and is ripe for the underworld. He escapes, of course.

... their cattle and settled there. Their culture hero, Heitsi-Eibib, came from the east. The waters of the Capture Flood did not stream from north and south straight, but, owing to the rotation of the Earth, in a trade-wind-like way, with a south-east trend in the northern hemisphere and a north-east trend in the southern. A Chinese myth says that the great rivers of China flow in the direction they do, because the goddess Niu-Kwa made the waters of the Great Flood stream off towards the south-east. The whole Earth had tilted and sunk into the sea there, we are told. The flood myths of the Pacific Islands are extremely numerous, but their classification is ...

... will interrupt this narrative. I let the story develop without my interjecting psychological insights- let it not be another psychoanalytic hour. Yet pausing at this point I ask the reader, what would he make of the following? The five-pointed star- the ancient symbol of the planet Venus- adorns the headgear of every American, Soviet, and Chinese soldier. ...

... time is presented in researches now completed by Dr. Immanuel Velikovsky.... He has assembled into a monumental work evidence from all the early civilizations that in the first and second millenniums before Christ tremendous terrestrial cataclysms took place.... In a magnificent piece of scholarly historical research he has correlated Sumerian, Chaldean, Hindu, Chinese, Mayan, Aztec, Icelandic, Egyptian and Hebrew records showing that the times of cataclysms described in all of them correspond. In the light of this record and the data he has assembled about the cataclysms, there unfolds a most exciting picture of terrestrial events that raises world history to a level of superlative interest. Obscure allusions to ...

It is very probable that these Peoples reckoned the disturbance as lasting five days and five nights (because a ninefold or tenfold period elapsed from one sunrise or sunset to the other). ...

... of darkness and of evil, or, according to our representation, to the Tertiary satellite. The Jews call iron ore nechoshet, which literally means the droppings of the [cosmic] serpent', a nonsensical term unless our interpretation of it is allowed. The Aztecs called gold teocuitlatl, the excrement of the gods' above. The Chinese call gold the solidified breath of a White Dragon', an expression which we can now understand. The Peruvians called gold the tears wept by the Sun' and silver the tears of the Moon'; both Sun' and Moon', however, are here only different names of the same cosmic phenomenon, the Tertiary satellite. ...
