155. Book Shelf [Journals] [Aeon]
... of catastrophist bent, as typified by his richly diverse and extensive notes and references to cataclysm-related literature, inclusive of such luminaries as Charles Hapgood, John and Katherine Imbre, Donald Patten, Zecharia Sitchin, Immanuel Velikovsky, and John White, among many other lesser known commentators in the genre. Hancock is an admittedly great admirer of de Santillana ... von Dechend for their seminal work on equating world legend with the precession of the equinoxes, although he thought they stopped short of the obvious catastrophic goal involving a more ancient sophisticated race of peoples: "Hamlet's Mill is a labyrinth of brilliant but deliberately evasive scholarship..."

... offers the possibility of a coupling of planets in close proximity, and one naturally wonders if such a principle might account for the pairs of similar rates of rotation noted by Donald Patten in this issue: Jupiter and Saturn, Mars and Earth, Neptune and Uranus. I am not here arguing for a such an interpretation, but simply asking ... question. What I will argue for is that the search for physical explanations have as its highest priority reckoning with the full implications of myth, wherever a definitive consensus is indicated.
