... , from the name of the semilegendary king Minos. The remains belong to various epochs. The Palace at Knossos and other buildings were suddenly destroyed, giving place to a new palace and buildings, which were again destroyed and again rebuilt. Many reasons led the explorer of these antiquities to the belief that a natural catastrophe was the agent of destruction, which marked the end of one period and the beginning of another.6 The ages are divided into Early, Middle, and Late Minoan, and each age is divided into three parts, I, II, and III. Another culture recognizable by its characteristic pottery had its center in Mycenae on the mainland of Greece. It ...
422. The Velikovsky Affair [Books] [de Grazia books]
... been impossible for the Earth to be out of the way of the comets' tails. Nay, the possibility of an immediate encounter or shock of the body, of a comet would have been too frequent; and considering how great is the velocity of a comet at such a time, the collision of two such bodies must necessarily be destructive of each other; nor perhaps could the inhabitants of planets long survive frequent immersions in the tails of comets, as they would be liable to in such a situation. Not to mention anything of the irregularities and confusion that must happen in the motion of planets and comets, if their orbits were all disposed in the same plane [ ...
423. Man: The Past, The Present, and the Future [Books]
... began about 7,000 years ago. We know very little about the history of man prior to that last great Flood which destroyed most of the inhabitants of the earth. Our knowledge of history is limited to probably less than one per cent of the time that men have inhabited the earth. Through migration the descendants of those who escaped destruction by the Flood have spread over the surface of the earth; most of the populations of Europe and America came from the east; and the migrations of peoples and the histories of nations attest to the fact that these land areas and continents are rather new, and that it is only in fairly recent times that they have become established ...
... if he should come to any ill end, he could not endure a separation from her, even after he was dead. Thus spake Joseph. But the women, as was natural, did not take this to be an instance of Herod's strong affection for them, but of his severe usage of them, that they could not escape destruction, nor a tyrannical death, even when he was dead himself. And this saying [of Joseph] was a foundation for the women's severe suspicions about him afterwards. 7. At this time a report went about the city Jerusalem among Herod's enemies, that Antony had tortured Herod, and put him to death. This report, ...
425. Exodus and Shishak Unraveled [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... Vol. 88, 471-85), who clearly shows that the Hyksos appearing at the end of Dynasty 13 belong to MBIIA and B and have been expelled before MBIIC. Thus the Asiatic slaves found at the beginning of Dynasty 13 and identified as the Hebrews must have left before MBIIA. Hence the Exodus should be dated to EBIII. The destruction found at the end of MBIIC can therefore be ascribed to the following events. The invasion of Palestine by Thutmose in his twenty-third year, the Deborah catastrophe dated one year later, the destruction of the Benjaminites (including Jericho and Bethel) by the other tribes, the flood of Deukalion and the eruption of Thera- all of which ...
426. Society News [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... Society News ANCIENT HISTORY STUDY GROUP The Ancient History Study Group met once again on Sunday, 21st October at the house of John Knightsbridge, 84 Dartmouth Rd., N.W .2 . Chaim Hermant and Michael Weitzman's book, "Ebla", was the subject of discussion: it showed that there was evidence arising out of the destruction of Ebla which clearly pointed to synchronisms with the destruction of other near eastern cities as noted by Claude Schaeffer. The book also revealed certain anachronisms which demonstrated the five hundred year gap which is essential to Velikovsky's thesis. In addition, interest was aroused by the fact that excavation at Ebla had turned up the name Abraham' together with ...
427. A New Introduction to Earth in Upheaval [Journals] [SIS Review]
... evidence of an enormous torque in the embrace of which the Earth shuddered, her poles repeatedly reversed, and also wandering; her little sister in this bi-planet system - the Moon - no more a lovable luminary to lighten our nights, but a site of an inferno, a ravished work, with no life left, millions of acres of destruction battered and molten and bubbled, a picture not new, but not realised in its meaning to Earth. Our glorious day luminary sends tongues of plasma to lick its planets that splay and harden their magnetic shields to protect themselves from such lovemaking. Radio signals are sent by planets to tell of the anguishes of their inorganic souls and radio ...
... It should be remarked that the comets of 1668, 1843, 1880, 1882 and 1887 all followed along the same track, coming from the direction of Canis Major (Sirius), and all of them appear to have become twin or tandem comets. This peculiarity recalls the myth of Phaeton, to which Plato refers in connection with the destruction of Atlantis, as the "declination of heavenly bodies," causing a vast conflagration and flood on the earth, and as recurring at long intervals of time. The story of Phaeton is undoubtedly the account of a very remarkable celestial event, which left behind it certain terrestrial effects. He drove the steeds of his father's chariot ( ...
429. One Of The Planets Is A Comet, Part 1 Venus Ch.8 (Worlds in Collision) [Velikovsky] [Velikovsky Worlds in Collision]
... quotes him as speaking of Venus as if it were not one of the planets. But apparently the author of the treatises on geometry, optics, and astronomy, no longer extant, knew more about Venus than his critics think. From quotations which have survived in other authors, we know that Democritus built a theory of the creation and destruction of worlds which sounds like the modem planetesimal theory without its shortcomings. He wrote: "The worlds are unequally distributed in space; here there are more, there fewer; some are waxing, some are in their prime, some waning: coming into being in one part of the universe, ceasing in another part. The cause ...
430. Venus and Mars [Books] [de Grazia books]
... . It is doubtful that C-14 is a valid and reliable clock, since its formation and absorption rates are so easily altered by changed environmental conditions, and so evidence of this nature, though favorable to the hypothesis, must be discounted. 3. Geosphere: Every geophysical process gives evidence of quantavolutionary stress. Widespread earthquakes are part of the destruction of towns to be referred to below. There occurred "a major westward shift in the Euphrates system of channels as a whole during Kassite times" (Paterson) (of this age, we believe). A set of natural disasters plunged the Harappan culture of India into a fatal decline now too. 4. Biosphere: Unusual ...
