273. The Oracle of Cadmus [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... , who lived in the days of the El-Amarna correspondence, applied cuneiform to the Hebrew alphabet, made of cuneiform an alphabetic writing, and, together with the Ionians, was expelled from his city by Assyrian conquerors and fled by sea. Cadmus introduced the Hebrew alphabet into Greece and applied it to the Greek language. King Nikrned had an Egyptian princess as his wife; and the legend has it that Cadmus brought with him a wife named Sphinx.[2 ] In the Oedipus legend the monster Sphinx guards the city of Seven-Gated Thebes in Boeotia. Velikovsky has brilliantly established the historical basis for the story in "Hundred-Gated Thebes," capital of Egypt under the splendid 18th dynasty ...
274. Towards an astronomical dating of the pyramids [Journals] [SIS Review]
... astronomical expertise derives from wartime experience as a Navigating Officer in the Royal Navy (1940-44). Since then, his principal activities have been in food technology and woodland management. Summary A detailed study of the claim that the pyramids of Giza were planned to mirror the constellation of Orion on the ground supports this hypothesis but reveals that the ancient Egyptians cannot have been quite such precise surveyors as is frequently claimed and that the era when the plan was conceived was probably around 800 BC. The book The Orion Mystery by R. Bauval and A. Gilbert, first published 1994 [1 ], presents a very plausible hypothesis as to how the pyramids of Giza and their environs were ...

"And the children of Israel went into the midst of the sea upon the dry ground: and the waters were a wall unto them on their right hand, and on their left. And the Egyptians pursued . . . And it came to pass, that in the morning watch the Lord looked unto the host of the Egyptians through the pillar of fire and of the cloud, and troubled the host of the Egyptians, and took off their chariot wheels . . . and the waters returned, and covered the chariots, and the ...

... hoped that the discourse presented here will spur other art historians and archaeologists to enter into a rational discussion of the revised chronology. The gauntlet is there and must be taken up. "The Mound of the Jew" In 1870, E. Brugsch discovered a large number of enamelled tiles in a palatial ruin of Ramses III at the Lower Egyptian site of Tell el-Yehudiya (the Mound of the Jew). The tiles had served as architectural embellishment and included as many as "3600 disks of various sizes and a great number of tiles more or less broken, bearing either flower ornaments, or birds, animals, and portraits of Asiatic or negro prisoners."(1 ) ...
278. The Tomb Of King Ahiram. Ch. 3. (Ramses II and his Time) [Velikovsky]
... From "Ramses II and his Time" © 1978 by Immanuel Velikovsky | FULL TEXT NOT AVAILABLE Contents Chapter III The Tomb Of King Ahiram The Speedy Scribe THE "Poem of Pentaur" contains a few Hebrew words which had infiltrated into the Egyptian language and were used instead of their Egyptian equivalents. So the word katzin is used for "officer" and sesem (sous) for "horse."1 Naarim, who saved Ramses at Kadesh, as already mentioned on an earlier page, is "boys" in Hebrew. Among the texts composed in the time of Ramses II there is a letter written by a scribe named Hori to a scribe named Amenemope.2 ...

280. El-Arish Revisited [Journals] [Kronos]
... From: Kronos Vol. XI No. 2 (Winter 1986) Home | Issue Contents El-Arish Revisited Sean Mewhinney Late in the last century an unimposing shrine of Ptolemaic times was found at el-Arish, overturned to serve as a cattle-trough. The inscription had suffered accordingly, but some 74 lines yet remained. In this text Velikovsky saw a parallel Egyptian account of Exodus, confirming the plague of darkness and the miraculous parting of the Sea of Passage. He believed that useful historical information could be elicited from it, by means of which the pharaoh of the Exodus and the route taken by the fleeing Israelites might be identified. MY interest was aroused in the el-Arish inscription because, in ...
