... Henighan, on two 30-minute TV programmes on Velikovsky which were broadcast on Carleton University's Instructional Television Network as part of a credit course and have been repeated several times, as recently as 1991. Fossil discoveries in the 1970s and 1980s by Canadian and American scientists confirmed late nineteenth century discoveries that a semi-tropical ecosystem once flourished well north of the Arctic Circle. Fossil forests have been located on Ellesmere Island and Axel Heiberg Island in the Canadian Arctic Archipelago. Identification of flora and fauna, and regional geological studies indicate an Eocene age and a polar latitude for these ancient forests. Field work from the summer of 1976 onwards led to the recognition of alligator and crocodile bones in the Canadian Arctic ...

... by positing that the planets Saturn, Venus, Mars and Earth were once much closer to each other. More than that, they were strung out in a linear conformation, in the order given above, which Frederic Jueneman once jocularly described as a celestial shish-kebab'. They were strung out, one below' the other, rather than circling around each other. This would have meant that the planets composing this unheard-of configuration all shared the same axis of rotation and also that, from Earth, man would have seen the planet Mars centred on Venus which, in turn, appeared to be centred on Saturn. I make no apologies here for the fact that this theory was ...

43. Solomon's Temple: An Astronomical Observatory [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... into 360 parts Let us proceed further. The whole bronze casting rested upon 12 oxen We can readily see here an additional example of division by 12. Also, as the oxen were distributed according to the four cardinal directions, we have cosmic orientation. We are not told about the spacing between oxen but it is reasonable to conclude the circle they made was subdivided into 12 equal parts. According to Jewish tradition they represented the 12-fold subdivision of the zodiac circle. A parallel biblical description in 2 Chronicles 2:4 of this "sea" in Solomon's temple informs us that the ball-like markers were the oxen. This may seem like an irreconcilable divergence between the two texts, ...

... builders were interested in the northern half of the cycle (i .e . the highest extreme) in the form of 40 post holes in the entrance, coinciding with the northern midwinter moonrise positions.(8 ) An alignment at Callanish is also angled toward the northern limit of the lunar cycle. Even more suggestive are the recumbent stone circles of north-east Scotland.(9 ) These have one huge stone set horizontally between two verticals in a ring of stones usually totalling 10 or 11. The recumbent stone, often transported a large distance and of igneous or metamorphic rock, was in most cases aligned, not to any rising or setting positions of the Sun or Moon, ...

45. The Saturn Thesis (Part 3) [Journals] [Aeon]
... to follow the reasoning in terms of the actual evolution of my own conclusions, because my reasoning from some fairly complex considerations actually led to a precise prediction that was quickly confirmed in sources outside of Egypt. As often occurs, the confirmations can be much more direct and easily followed than the original reasoning. The pictograph of Ra is a circle with a much smaller circle in the center. The rationale for the investigation was an overarching question in my mind concerning the relationship of the Egyptian mother goddess and warrior hero to that Ra-sign, a symbol which is, of course, repeated around the world. Ra with the Uraeus surrounding the "sun" sphere. Sekhmet, whose ...

... Sligo [2 ]. These associations with the moon prompt further consideration of its role in prehistoric times. This paper seeks to bring together possible answers to three hitherto unconnected puzzles: characteristics of the moon which are contrary to expectations; neolithic glyphs or carvings on stones, including so-called cup and ring' marks; and the functions of stone circles and henges. A model is proposed based on evidence from astronomical and archaeological sources, which invites further and more detailed exploratory work by specialists in these fields.

The disk rests on a cross-legged support between the angles of which appear globes. Above the disk is a semicircular figure with a globe at each side. Behind each of the large human figures appears a smaller one. At the end of the group is a tree. At top and bottom single lines form ...

... or, what is the same thing, they consumed the body of the creator. (I shall not distract from the present discussion by elaborating parallels in later religious symbolism.) The interrelated terminology identifies the primeval ta, "land," with the enclosure of the central sun . The Egyptians knew that the primeval garden lay within the circle of the Aten. (" Thou makest thy creations in thy great Aten," reads the Litany of Re.) (18) Thus the Egyptians denoted the garden of Re by combining the Aten glyph with the glyph for "garden": . The significance of such imagery seems to have escaped mythologists: the lost "homeland ...

... to lunar motions and related phenomena than to solar events, to such a degree in fact that I unhesitatingly refer to it as the Temple of the Moon. This fact is borne out by close consideration and analysis of its most highly-visible features, the megalithic components that usually define the place in the viewer's mind. These consist of the Sarsen Circle; 30 upright megaliths (actually 29.5 since one member is only half size) with connecting lintels; the Trilithon Horseshoe consisting of 5 sets of uprights, each set of which is composed of 2 massive megaliths with a connecting lintel; and the smaller Bluestone Horseshoe of 19 slender stones embedded in the ground. I have referred ...
