... virtually defy contradiction"? ' He himself confesses that he has not been able to get to grips with the difficult mechanism involved in the canopy' concept. ' This did not, however, stop him from believing that Zysman succeeds in reconciling the usual confusion between the North' and the Zenith' as regards the appearance of the world column', ' and that mythological allusions to the South Star are explained by Zysman's scenario. The references here are to the mytho-historical north celestial placement of the primeval sun cum world column which, in Zysman's model, is explained as the zenithal reflection of the sunlit Earth in the ice-crystal canopy which once surrounded our globe; [7 ] ...
422. Untitled [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... . This becomes useful for dating the Lachish bowl text in terms of accession dates for the two main candidates with which the bowl is best associated: Merneptah and Ramesses III. In Table 2 the accession dates of these kings have been located in relationship to the rest of the dates on the bowl. The order of dates in the left-hand column would fit best with Merneptah because his accession date fell outside the limits of IV Akhet 26 and IV Shemu I. The order of dates in the right-hand column, however, would fit best with Ramesses III, because his accession date fell on I Shemu 16. Ramesses III is the pharaoh who ruled through the first third of the ...

... Libya by Ptolemaic or Roman rulers. However, the archaeological context of this piece does not provide independent support for the claim that this bust was an import. As usual, this is a rationalisation, necessary to reconcile contradictory evidence with the conventional chronology. Gennaro Pesce found the bust (Item 8 of Habachi) in the Palace of the Columns located within the ancient city of Ptolemais in Libya. It was first seen by Rowe in 1943 when he visited the site. Ptolemy I took control of Libya within a few years of Alexander the Great's death. As its name suggests, the city of Ptolemais was renamed and probably given a constitution by one of the early Ptolemies, ...
424. The Races Of Homo Sapiens [Journals] [Kronos]
... . The white-skinned Ainu are descended from Mongoloid stock, with no remains known prior to the Holocene. 3. European Caucasoids were apparently preceded by Mongoloid stock, in the Upper Pleistocene, and possessed morphologically similar teeth. 4. There are genetic commonalities between European Caucasoids and Black Africans not shared by Mongoloids. 6. History and the Geological Column Immanuel Velikovsky has argued for a revised and sometimes compressed chronology of events in antiquity. He elaborated at length on past cataclysms preserved in myths and histories around the world, some of which resulted in a displacement of the Earth's axis. Presumably, the polar caps were also displaced by (diametrically opposed) partial melting and concurrent extension- ...

... the show why "this concept is attractive," why the presumed "plastic creep" has most of the essential capabilities needed to mold the Earth's surface over great lengths of time. "The combination of gravity with variations in the density of the material" operates so that "circulation in the deep plastic zone probably involves rising and sinking columns as well as horizontal currents... Some kind of very slow thermal convection - the rise of relatively warm columns and sinking of relatively cool ones - is a favored hypothesis for the ultimate cause of diastrophism." This is about as far as the theory of land-based geology' has come. In contrast, we have been offering ...

... . 58), the second Hedjkheperre Shoshenq lived more than two generations after the death of the first. 2. The Genealogy of Ankhefenkhons (statue of Nespaherenhat - Cairo Catalogue 42189). As it appears in Tony's write-up, the genealogy has been compressed one generation (C &C Workshop 1993:2 , p.14, 2nd column 3rd line: Ipuy (b ) and Nesiamun are consecutive priests, not one person as Tony's list seems to show). This genealogy shows even more strikingly that there is something seriously amiss with the conventional scheme of things for Dynasties 20 and 21: the period Ipuy (a ), Sem-Priest in the estate of Merneptah, to ...
427. Philologos | The Legends of the Jews: Volume IV [Books]
... . This river is full of sand and stones, and on the six working days of the week, they tumble over each other with such vehemence that the crash and the roar are heard far and wide. But on the Sabbath (56) the tumultuous river subsides into quiet. As a guard against trespassers on that day, a column of cloud stretches along the whole length of the river, and none can approach the Sambation within three miles. Hedged in as they are, the Sons of Moses yet communicate with their brethren of the tribes of Naphtali, Gad, and Asher, who dwell near the banks of the Sambation. Carrier pigeons bear letters hither and thither ...
428. Ice Cores of Greenland [Books] [de Grazia books]
... will agree that ice is disposed of from below. If such is the case, the time measured by different cores will probably be affected by the conditions of the Earth - the depth of the crust, the proximity of mantle magma intrusions, the stresses and strains horizontally suffered by the ice. Will dust and particles descend in a given column faster over time than the original ice varve to which they pertained? Probably so, because of greater density and hardness. This may be the source of the bottom debris, but the bottom debris may not be so immobile as we conjectured above and may be moving out laterally at a faster rate than its bulk presence would indicate. ...

... identified with the Indian god Varuna, whom the Rig Veda equates with Agni and thus, inadvertently, with Saturn" [49]. (The name Saturn here refers to the Saturnian configuration which included other planetary members. As a member of this configuration, Agni might additionally have stood for Mars which was embedded' in the configuration's polar column [50]). Complementary to this, the same Rig Veda informs us that Agni was the sea: He only [Agni] is the sea, holder of treasures' [51]. Likewise, Varuna was known as the lord of the waters [52], these being recognised as having been the waters of the ...

... show that it is not a deep vortex of cloud as previously thought. Instead its top is a tangle of spiral arms. The gaps in between them reveal a large, fairly clear area below. And the spot is slightly raised near the middle. Dr Taylor thinks this means that the red spot is actually a relatively narrow, spinning column of material rising from the depths and being sprayed out over the ammonia clouds. At its edges, the material falls back down. Besides that, however, the mysteries persist. More data remain to be analysed. Dr Taylor hopes they will give some clues as to what the substance is (i .e ., why the ...
