... peaks of acidity in the annual ice layers with known volcanic eruptions AD, analysis of the BC record revealed a peak at about 1390 BC. This peak was claimed to be the record of the massive eruption of Thera/Santorini in the eastern Mediterranean. The accepted archaeological dating of this eruption, based inevitably upon correlations of Minoan society with Egyptian, is between 1500 and 1550 BC and early radiocarbon dates of between 1400 and 1600 BC had been acceptable. Then calibrated radiocarbon gave dates of 1720 BC which, initially, were explained away in various ways. However, when a new core gave a date of 1646 BC for the Thera eruption the first ice core was discredited and ...
782. Andrew Collins: The Truth of the Past - Finding Historical Reality in the Alternative Field of Research [Journals] [SIS Internet Digest]
... the work of Pablo Atoche Peņa). The Canaries would unquestionably have been used as a maritime staging post for transatlantic journeys which would have utilised the Canary Current, the North Equatorial Current and the Trade Winds to reach the Caribbean. Moreover, there is every indication that the root language behind the Atlantis legend was not high Atlantean, or Egyptian, but West Semitic, the language of the Phoenicians and their sister colony, the Carthaginians. If Atlantis was Antarctica, how might we explain the transoceanic voyages referred to by Plato and the West Semitic root to the story? Despite this clear evidence against Antarctica being Atlantis, Antarctica remains the most popular theory regarding the true location of ...

... in KRONOS VII:4 . A review of Mrs. Fuhr's book appeared in Bibliotheca Orientalis XXV, No. 3/4 , May-July, 1968, p. 260. The author of it was Th. P. van Baaren. - LMG 3. Gods and Stars Allam(32) cites information from Aelian according to which the Egyptian goddess Hathor - in her manifestation as Mistress of Cusae - was considered by the Greeks of Hellenistic times to be the equivalent of Aphrodite Urania, a goddess with an epithet not claimed by any other Greek goddess.(33) But Aphrodite Urania was also the name of a "meteor" goddess of Aphaca at Byblos in Syria, ...
784. Rohl's Chronology - Implications for Mediterranean? [Journals] [SIS Internet Digest]
... years. With the ageing effect of long lived samples taken into consideration, we might expect an eruption date of between 1150 and 800 BC +/ - 190 years consistent with the New Chronology but not consistent with either the conventional archaeological date (c . 1550 BC) or the 1628 BC frost signature. The C14 date versus Minoan and Egyptian archaeology. As many Minoan archaeologists have pointed out, the 1628 BC date is far too early for the archaeological context of the eruption. It has been determined for many years now that Late Minoan IA continued into the period of the 18th Dynasty in Egypt. Santorini blew in the middle of LM IA. The 1628 BC "scientific ...
785. Night of the Gods: The Axis and the Universe-Tree [Books]
... 66 As my theory here is that the Dharma, or Law, of Buddhism is the revolution of the Universe, these Trees of the Law must be symbols of the Axis. I would especially press upon the reader's attention that here we have a Buddhist Tree of the Law as well as a Wheel of the Law, compare also the Egyptian flagstaffs. Among the Aboriginal (? ) tribes of S.W . China, the Kau-erh Lung-kia " after the springtime stick a small tree in a field, which they call the demon(?) -stick. There is a gathering round this stick and a dance," and men make their engagements with women. The ...

... ." He did not say, "and the Levites shall be Mine," before He had tried this tribe, and found them worthy. In Egypt none but the tribe of Levi observed the Torah and clung to the token of the Abrahamic covenant, while the others tribes, abandoning both Torah and token of covenant, like the Egyptians, practiced idolatry. In the desert, also, it was this tribe alone that did not take part in the worship of the Golden Calf. Justly, therefore, did God's choice fall upon this godly tribe, who on this day were consecrated as the servants of God and His sanctuary. [409] The ceremonies connected with ...
787. Minds in Chaos [Books] [de Grazia books]
... have been real and sequential aspects of single titanic cataclysm of natural forces? If the Exodus took place during - or because of-an upheaval, perhaps some record of the same events has survived among the many documents of ancient Egypt; if so, might not such a record be a clue to the proper place of the Exodus in Egyptian history? After weeks of search Velikovsky came upon the story he sought. A papyrus bearing a lamentation by one Ipuwer had been preserved in the library of the University of Leiden, Holland, since 1828. Translation of the document by A. H. Gardiner in 1909 had disclosed an account of plague and destruction closely paralleling the Biblical ...

... each, which were placed at the four cardinal points. When the four posts, upon which the Eskimo firmament rests, are getting rotten and threaten to collapse, the angekok medicine-men, wizards- erect new ones in their stead. Tane of the Maoris sees to it that the heavens always stay on their four pillars. The sky of the Egyptians was an iron roof, supported by four pillars at the cardinal points; or the belly of the cosmic cow Hathor, whose four legs stood firm upon the Earth; or the body of the goddess Nut whom her father Shu held apart from her brother and husband Keb, the Earth, by means of a system of pillars, ...
789. Centuries of Darkness? - the reviewers reviewed [Journals] [SIS Review]
... the chapters dealing successively with the Central Mediterranean, the Balkans, the Aegean, Asia Minor, Cyprus, and Syria-Palestine do indeed appear to establish a prima facie case for an overstretch of chronology covering the period of the Dark Ages'. " But, as James et al. themselves note, all depends on whether the necessary compaction of Egyptian chronology (mostly in the Third Intermediate Period) can be achieved, and here Dodson is skeptical. He cites only one piece of evidence' - some recent fieldwork on the Tanis tomb complex - against the overlapping of the 21st and 22nd Dynasties. But Dodson is in favour of the idea of some small chronological adjustments, e. ...

... ancient Middle East and the art of pharaonic and Ptolemaic Egypt. For example, the gestural form is apparent in the large upper register figure on the stele of Urnammu (" Neo- Sumerian"), in the representation of Hammurabi on his stele, and the monumental relief of Darius I at Behistun. It can also be seen in Egyptian reliefs of the New Kingdom and Ptolemaic periods. (48) In Greek art, this manual activity became one "of adoration, made by raising the right forearm vertically with the palm of the hand turned outward and slightly bent back at the wrist". (49) In time, the same gesture also took on a more ...
