... northernist theory usually requires that Earth and Saturn (sometimes other bodies are thrown in) should orbit the Sun in tandem. They do not constitute a mutually orbiting pair, however, like Earth and Saturn in the "Philolaos" model, or like Earth and the Moon at the present time. Rather, they make up a permanent polar column, with that column remaining more or less perpendicular to the plane of Saturn's orbit as Saturn and Earth orbit the Sun. This means that Earth and Saturn would, from a purely gravitational point of view, be orbiting the Sun as independent planets. Also, Earth and Saturn would have been at about the same distance from the Sun ...
152. Collapsing Tests of Time [Books] [de Grazia books]
... CHAPTER THREE Collapsing Tests of Time It would appear that someone has stolen the rocks of the Earth. In North America, 35 epochs, comprised in 250 rock formations which are formed of a great many less thick and distinct strata, have been recognized as composing the geologic column back to the "beginning of life," the Paleozoic of 570 million years ago [1 ]. [Lately a billion years.] The Pre-Cambrian before this is thought to have consumed 2,000 or perhaps even 4,000 million years [2 ]. But the formations are never present for inspection in one place. If every different stratum that was ever labelled were heaped up in ...
153. June 15, 762 BCE: A Mathematical Analysis of Ancient History [Journals] [Velikovskian]
... assume that duplications could exist throughout ths entire period, including the 150-year gap? If so, then the number of kings would be cut in half and the lengths of the reigns could be stretched beyond an average of 3.36 years to more realistic proportions. Two lists of kings are correlated below (Table 9). The left-hand column- contains kings from Dynasties 18, 19, 24 and 25. The right-hand column contains the kings of Dynasties 22, 23 and 26. Also included, separately, are six miscellaneous names. These lists were compiled from four reliable sources (141) and these kings are listed in their generally accepted order of succession. In parentheses ...
154. The Queen's Brother. Part 1 (Oedipus and Akhnaton) [Velikovsky]
... nobles were carved in the face of the surrounding rocky cliffs. There were two groups of them, one to the south, the other to the north. These sepulchers were generally modeled after the tombs of Thebes of the Eighteenth Dynasty. From a forecourt a door opens into a large hall, the roof of which is often supported by columns left in the solid rock when the tombs were cut out. Besides the hall there is a chamber with a statue of the owner of the sepulcher; this chamber is reached from the hall either directly or through an anteroom. The grave shaft is usually, though not always, in the front hall. The walls of the sepulcher ...
... J. Wiseman (Gilgamesh et sa légende, pp. 128-30), but the author himself states that the new reading (u su-ut NA4.MES) "appears at present to help little towards the understanding of this much discussed term. The restoration of parts of ll.35-41, now possible, shows that the end of this column describes the manner in which Gilgamesh met Ur-shanabi and obtained the boat and its equipment for his journey over the waters of death. ' When Gilgamesh heard this, he took up the axe in his hand, drew the dagger from the belt, crept along and went down. . . Like a lance he fell among them. . ...
156. Morning Star* [Journals] [Aeon]
... Codex Vindobonensis, a naked Quetzalcoatl is depicted "raised to the high heavens." Behind his back appear the so-called mountain of the sun and the double-peaked hill of sunset. (108) Readers of this periodical should by now be quite familiar with this "mountain," sometimes described as double-peaked, as the axis mundi, or polar column, associated with the primeval Saturnian sun. (109) In Mesoamerica, this cosmic hill was known as Colhuacan, and was said to have been the mountain of Tlaloc. (110) This is significant because, according to the Codex Magliabecchiano, Quetzalcoatl was assimilated with Tlaloc (111) who was likewise depicted with the face of ...
157. The Latecoming Olduvai Gorge [Books] [de Grazia books]
... if "trace elements" are essential to methods of measuring rock ages; if rocks are igneous; if igneous flow (fissure or cone) proceeds by erupting lavas from the top rock melt layer, then the next to the top layer of melt, et seq., - then, radiodating will show old dates at bottom of the column, and younger dates as measurements move up. This is as expected and found. But the layering could occur in a very short time set of eruptions and evidence a series of old ages in some kind of proportions because the daughter traces will be most abundant in the lowest samples and decline progressively as the samples are taken from lower ...
158. The Saturn Thesis (Part 2) [Journals] [Aeon]
... texts celebrated this as the "thousand-spoked wheel," while giving it many other names as well and, as noted by Ananda Coom-araswamy, Heinrich Zimmer, Mircea Eliade, and others, the great wheel turned at the summit of the world axis. (That is why, of course, the symbolists consistently placed the wheel above a great column claimed to have risen along the axis. But we'll get to that in due course.) The Hindu symbolism is not only remarkably consistent with the early Mesopotamian images of the sun-wheel, it gives us a firm textual basis for our interpretation of the earlier Mesopotamian de-pictions. For the texts say that the goddess served as the nave in ...
159. New Frontiers on the Stability of the Solar System [Articles]
... . In fact, about one sixth of all the stars in the sky are in triple systems. (Slide) When we look at the objects in the Solar System, and this might be labelled a pre-Voyager list, we find that we can use the Solar System as a sort of analog computer in a sense. In the first column, we have the names of the objects, and then in the second column we have the year of discovery, if it is known, and in the third column we have the period of revolution of the object about its primary, like Mercury around the Sun: its period of revolution is .241 of a year, whereas ...

From: Catastrophist Geology Year 1 No. 2 (Dec 1976) Home | Issue Contents Apophoreta 2 After a banquet in ancient Greece, guests received some eatable or drinkable gifts, APOPHORETA - things to be carried off', to take home. On this page a column is published in which provocative hypotheses are presented. They may serve to stimulate thought and research - and the correspondence for the Comments' column of this journal, In their investigation of core samples from the Gulf of Mexico, Emiliani et al (Science 1975, 189:1083-88) discovered a section nearly two meters in thickness thatyielded radiocarbon ages of about 25,000 years B.P .
