101. Oldest Astronomical Monument Rivals Stonehenge [Journals] [SIS Internet Digest]
... 492-3114. March 31, 1998: Oldest Astronomical Megalith Alignment Discovered in Southern Egypt by Science Team. An assembly of huge stone slabs found in Egypt's Sahara Desert that date from about 6,500 years to 6,000 years ago has been confirmed by scientists to be the oldest known astronomical alignment of megaliths in the world. Nabta stone circle site in Egypt Known as Nabta, the site consists of a stone circle, a series of flat, tomb-like stone structures and five lines of standing and toppled megaliths. Located west of the Nile River in southern Egypt, Nabta predates Stonehenge and similar prehistoric sites around the world by about 1,000 years, said University of Colorado ...

... an essay heavily burdened with Velikovskian overtones and sensationally illustrated by April Lawton, Lloyd Motz presented a doomsday scenario projected into the far future. In describing the end of the Solar System, Motz predicted that, due to the "tremendous pull of the earth's tidal action," the Moon will fall apart and form "a ring of particles circling the earth." (17) Lawton's dramatic illustration of the event depicts "pieces of the shattered moon" as they "orbit the earth, forming rings much like Saturn's." (18) In 1984, shifting the scene back to the past, two independent teams, one led by Al Cameron and Willie Benz, the ...

... company is in textbooks; it is the real backbone of our firm. Therefore, we are vulnerable. Professors in certain universities have refused to see our salesmen. We have received a series of letters declaring a boycott of all our textbooks. Please realize how it works." Here Mr. Brett picked up a pencil and drew some circles. "Academic circles are not isolated groups; they are united in local organizations or in professional associations that are incorporated or represented in larger national organizations." And he drew larger circles: the American Association for the Advancement of Science in Washington, the American Philosophical Society, and the National Academy of Sciences, groups of national importance ...

... a long time (unless one is thinking on a geological time scale). Certainly it was dry land by the time F. De Saulcy published maps of the area in 1854. Geological evidence suggests it has been exposed for as long as 3,000 years. John Bimson, Bristol and David Ellis, London The Machrie Moor Stone Circles Eric Aitchison, looking for an explanation for the multiplicity of stone circles, speculates that the five or six stone circles in the same area and one further away' on Machrie Moor, Isle of Arran, might once have been tracing out ellipses of errant planets so that they could demonstrate that the ellipses were becoming more circular'. ...

... risk of extinction."124 This is not proof of size being the essential factor in the extinction under discussion, but when taken together with all the rest of the evidence, it is compelling. If, indeed, the geographic pole was tilted only about eight degrees instead of its present 23.5 degrees, the Arctic and Antarctic circles would retreat to about one-third of their present latitude. While the present tilt allows the frigid zone to encompass an area of about 8,350,000 square miles, an eight degree tilt would encompass an area of only 965,000 square miles, or over eighty-eight percent less area. The Arctic and Antarctic circles would only be ...

... years after Agassiz had come. up with his theory, someone said, there must be an explanation for this, and a chap called, I think it's Adhémar, round about 1842 or -3, said, what about this business of the precession of the equinoxes, we know that in fact the Earth is not moving in a perfect circle round the Sun, it's moving in an ellipse. We also know from way back, that there is precession occurring, the precession of the equinoxes, and combining these two effects, maybe this has produced some changes on Earth which is changes in the amount of heat at different times of the year in different parts of the world ...

Wal Thornhill- ASTRONOMY AS ART By Amy Acheson Ptolemy's mathematical epicycles were an effort to explain the celestial order as he saw it in terms of the "divine perfect circles" of his mythical/religious heritage. Copernicus' new viewpoint was based on the same assumption that there is something sacred about "celestial spheres". He tossed out Ptolemy's math and painted a new picture using a concept he imagined would replace the cumbersome epicycles with perfectly circular orbits. See? If you put the Sun here, ...

... magical, celestial rope, or in the middle of a great wheel. (3 ) Are these different stories, or different mythical expressions of the same story? Though the symbolic objects differ, the striking fact is that when men first recorded these mythical forms they described each and every one of them in the same terms- as a great circle enclosing a central orb. And when they drew pictures of them, they produced the singular image , probably the most common pictograph in the ancient world. Interestingly, the African Dogon have a "picture" of Saturn: it is this very image. The early Greeks and Romans portrayed Saturn with the same pictograph, and so too ...

... deduced differently by different peoples, can be said to have been symbolically legitimate. That the egg was silver in color, however, is only partly correct. Granted, Talbott has bolstered this contention by supplying the following source material: The Great Chronos fashioned in the divine Aether a silver egg. And it moved without slackening in a vast circle. (77) Orphic theogony describes the egg as having been white. (78) According to the Dogon, Digitaria- the "egg of the world"- was also white in color. (79) The difference between white and silver should not however bother us since, in this instance, the two terms are descriptively ...

There are differences also of another kind no less remarkable, as in size, the length of their muzzles, and the convexity of their foreheads. But, if we look for some of those essential changes ...
