... in the study of rocks on the surface of the Earth is that if you have a listing of the rocks all through the various geological ages, from England, over here, from France, from the US, from Russia, from China, interestingly enough you have "coincidental" samenesses in these six or seven or 25 or 100 columns, you have at certain periods of time limestone forming predominantly, at other periods of time you have fairly pure sandstones, at other periods of time you have evaporate deposits, you have various types of salts and gypsum forming, so there seems to be something that has caused in the geological past, and by the past I mean ...
482. Forum [Journals] [SIS Review]
... l'Asie Occidentale [reviewed by G. Gammon (1980) in SIS Review] compared the strata of the 3rd and 2nd millennia from many sites in the Levant, Anatolia, Cyprus, etc. He summarised the evidence in a long fold-out table (No. IX) in which the stratigraphy and chronology at the main sites were tabulated in columns side by side. Right across this table run several interruptions to civilisation, the most prominent one being marked at about 1600 BC and labelled at almost every site Hiatus'. This line of hiatuses is largely fictional and is due to the extra centuries inserted into the Egyptian SIP. Schaeffer had used Egyptian 12th and 18th Dynasty objects to ...
483. Tektites and China's Dragon [Journals] [Kronos]
... In Chinese lore, a horned monster, Kung Kung, lost a battle for power with one of the five ancient kings. Because of this, he flew into a rage and flung himself at Mount Pu Chou which, like the original Olympus of the Greeks, was a mythological analogy for the sky.(8 ) Then "the column of the sky was broken, the link with earth was cut. In the north-west the sky collapsed. Hence the sun, moon and stars slipped toward the north-west and the earth tilted to the south-east. Thereupon the waters spread and flowed to the south-east."(9 ) In this we may possibly recognize the series of sequential ...
484. The Two Sargons and Their Successors (Part II) [Journals] [Aeon]
... apply to Sargon of Assyria. The later reigned between 722 and 705 B.C . and Nabonidus would have known that he could not have been separated from him by more than 150 years. More importantly, among other items, such antiquarian interest has left us with a catalogue compiled by an unknown scribe on a large tablet with fourteen columns on each side. This catalogue consists of various textual copies that were originally inscribed by, or in the name of, Lugalzagesi, Sargon of Akkad, and two of his sons. We know that these are copies because the tablet itself informs us that these inscriptions were originally to be found on certain statues and victory stelae which had ...
... . (11) But what may be most significant about the booklet is the fact that within its final pages its author's alterego realizes that he is not the long-awaited Messiah. Did Velikovsky come to a similar conclusion regarding his own role? It is true that, writing as "Observer" in the late 1940s, Velikovsky contributed some fifty columns on Israeli politics to the New York Post; while these undoubtedly reflected his Palestinian experiences from one and two decades earlier, it would be anachronistic to try to read them out of their proper chronological context. Direct expressions of his attitude toward his ancestral homeland, at the time that he dwelled therein, are mysteriously missing despite his decades ...

... the Neolithic Age) found drawn on cliffs in Spain. Each of the characters is a double triangle or a variation on one [11]. 6. A Trip to The Underworld For illumination, let us shine a light down below at the bottom triangle of the magnetic field interior. In many ways the bottom triangle resembles the polar column', mountain, giant, sword, axis, etc. that connects heaven and earth in the Saturnists' Polar Configuration'. Perhaps the outward flaring of the field lines emanating from the vertex' of the bottom triangle inspired such concepts as the serpent or dragon in hell which bites at the heel of Adam, or the serpent ...
487. Monitor [Journals] [SIS Review]
... convincing is a recent picture of a body which appears to be flying away from its star but still connected to it by a curved streamer of radiation. David Salkeld is to be thanked for the observation that for any beings on the planet' gazing up at their primary, a major light would appear to sit at the top of a column of light, just as envisaged in Talbott's Polar Configuration. The Oort cloud Scientific American Sept. 98, pp. 62-67 This article details all that is currently known about this cloud of comets and much speculation besides. A new type of asteroid New Scientist 11.7 .98, p. 11 An asteroid has been discovered with ...
488. The Identification of the Biblical "Queen of Sheba" with Hatshepsut, "Queen of Egypt and Ethiopia" (Part III) [Journals] [Kronos]
... translating from Egyptian hieroglyphs into modern European diction. In the case of the Punt-reliefs, hieroglyphs fill the space left empty by the pictures, the "letters" being written in adaptation to the space available. They are partly arranged in horizontal lines- to be read from left to right, or from right to left- partly in vertical columns. There are no punctuation nor other diacritical marks. Thus, it is left to the reader to decide where a sentence ends and a new one begins; whether or not there is direct speech, and by whom, etc. Furthermore, while Naville translated line by line, Breasted broke the text up into sections not to be ...
489. The Causal Source for the Climatic Changes at 2300 BC [Journals] [SIS Review]
... meet.) (Figure 2) Figure 2: Typical ITD and surface wind patterns (after Bryson, Murray [13]) The movements of air masses from north and the south along the Earth's surface towards the ITD mean that the air at the ITD can escape only by rising. The rising air takes the form of numerous isolated columns or towers, each marked by extensive cloud systems, showers and thunderstorms. Consequently, the ITD is a belt of frequent rainfall, cloudiness and storms, normally referred to as the monsoon region. Because of the Earth's obliquity [14], the latitude of the ITD migrates north in the summer and south in the winter. The ...
490. Anomalous Occurrence of Crocodilia in Eocene Polar Forests Part Two [Journals] [SIS Review]
... alligators were the dominant form from Triassic times onward. Crocodilians went through Jurassic and Cretaceous times with almost no outward changes. After their only attempt to spread to a new habitat - the open sea - ended in failure, crocodilians stayed in rivers, lakes and marshes, and restricted evolutionary progress to adopting a more efficient articulation of the vertebral column, an improved breathing system, a better brain and a four-chambered heart [98]. While crocodilians once had considerably greater geographical distribution over the surface of the globe, their climatic requirements have been invariant, with any enhanced tolerance of cold associated only with species of Oligocene vintage or later. Even with the most recent species of cold-tolerant ...
