... is a definite target point, as far as one could make out, of the first appearance of biological structures of a relatively simple kind, namely bacteria, and the point at which it occurs for the first time in the Earth is marked on that clock as 3830 million years before the present time. I will come back to the dating of the 3830 million years in a minute, but the general structure of the clock is that one finds large complex creatures now and as you go back in time, the creatures, animals and plants, become progressively simpler until you reach what seems to be a starting point at 3830 or so million years before now. Let me ...
252. Early 21st Dynasty Genealogy and the Consequences of Redating the Installation of HPA Pinudjem 1 to ca. Year 1 of Psusennes I [Journals] [SIS Review]
... ) ' [3 ]. (Since Pinudjem I was already appearing then as High Priest of Amun [HPA], and the anonymous regnal year in question could perhaps belong to the beginning of the short reign of Psusennes I's apparent [4 ] immediate predecessor, Amenemnisu, this can be conveniently referred to as a [re] -dating of the installation of HPA Pinudjem I to circa year 1 of Psusennes I.) Such a shift would entail, in turn (section 7), a considerable Ramesses XI/Smendes overlap (i .e . a short overlap between Dynasties 20 and 21). Early 21st Dynasty genealogy could be chronologically important for another reason: ...
253. Focus [Journals] [SIS Review]
... ". In the opening session, JOHN DAYTON, author of Minerals, Metals, Glazing and Man, spoke on the chronology of ancient glazing technology, giving a number of reasons why he believed on technical grounds that the generally accepted chronology of the ancient Near East for the period of the Bronze Age (c . 3000-1200 BC on conventional dating) was erroneous. He had several general criticisms of archaeologists. First, most of them had a "frontier complex" which made them reluctant to look beyond their own, sometimes very narrow, specialist fields. Secondly, while there was a good deal of evidence that quite small climatic changes in the past had resulted in great movements ...

255. An Investigation into the Reality of the Early Medieval Dark Age [Journals] [SIS Review]
... but, in any case, the situation is transformed if we look beyond the boundaries of Germany and Austria. I have not found any book on art history which says that the Aachen chapel is ahead of its time - indeed, the consensus is that it is an inferior copy of an Italian model, San Vitale in Ravenna, which dates from the 6th century. For example Honour and Fleming explain how it was S. Vitale in Ravenna, with its domed octagonal central space, that seems to have provided the model for the Palatine (imperial palace) Chapel at Aachen, Charlemagne's favourite residence in his later years'. They continue, Yet there are some striking differences ...
256. A Conversation with Barry Fell [Journals] [Horus]
... region had an absolute hold on the manufacture of blue beads - that they made them from crushed Well the story is, then, that the American Indians did not know how to make glass, though they did value it and particularly blue glass. Consequently, how is it that there are blue glass beads in burial mounds that can be dated back to 800 A. D. or earlier? They must have been brought here by traders, so we've come to the same conclusion on similar evidence to that which Bolivian archaeologists have come; Phoenicians were bringing it. [In America B. C., Fell presents an abundance of archaeological and linguistic evidence that points to a ...

... . Morgan's residence in London S.E .22. The discussion centred on Mesopotamian history and its relation to the revised chronologies of Egypt and Palestine. There was evidence of archaeological "dark ages" in Mesopotamia between 1600 and 1400 B.C ., and also between 1150 and 900 B.C .; there was need for dates to be reduced in line with those of Egypt, but there was an apparent conflict with the documentary evidence of King Lists and inscriptions which needed to be resolved. This theme will be discussed further at the next meeting. Recommended reading Ancient Iraq by Georges Roux, Babylon by Joan Oates, and Archaeology of Ancient Mesopotamia by Hugh Seton ...

... would place the events described in the above volume in the 7th century BC, not the 9th and 10th, as Velikovsky did. In accordance with this scheme of things, Ahmose of the 18th Dynasty, who defeats the Hyksos king Apopi, is contemporary with Saul of Israel who defeats the Amalekite king Agog. These events are to be dated around 720 BC, and describe the death-throes of the Assyrian Empire in the south. Two generations later Solomon is visited in Jerusalem by the fabulous Queen of Sheba (or Queen of the South), who is none other than Hatshepsut of Egypt, the queen who left an account of her glorious expedition to Punt and the Divine ( ...

... there are clear signs of increased tectonic activity over the past 6 Myrs. Interglacial Pole Shifts? (Reuters, Yahoo! News, 12.11.03; The Times, 19.11.03.) Among the large mammals which disappeared from North America at the end of the Ice Age' were horses. Research on radiocarbon dated fossil bones shows that extinct Alaskan horses underwent a rapid decrease in size before they disappeared, indicating that it was climate change, with resulting vegetation shift from grassland to tundra, as the cause. Phillip Clapham writes that this suggests strongly that the end of the "Ice Age" was in effect a pole shift, a factor further ...
