... 8 , 9, 10). Evidence has been presented which indicated that the earth was extensively affected by interactions of the earth and an external body. Durrani and Khan (11, 12) have suggested this as a cause of the reversals of the earths magnetic field. They mention a correlation of the deposition of tektites, widespread faunal extinction, climatic changes and maxima of volcanic activity at the reversal about 700,000 years ago. Some of the planets may have originated from one or more of the larger planets, and comets may originate from the larger planets or their satellites. In 1960, Lyttleton (13) described conditions under which Jupiter would become unstable and would ...

393. Red Earth, White Lies, Native Americans and the myth of scientific fact, by Vine Deloria, Jr. [Journals] [SIS Review]
... purpose of this book is to try and reconstruct the history of man in America by using the knowledge of the North American Indians as it has been handed down in myth and legend. By so doing the author exposes the European ethnocentricity which led to the Bering land bridge theory and its follow-up theory that the first Americans were responsible for the extinction of a large variety of the ice-age megafauna by overkill. Neither theory holds up against either the physical evidence or Indian traditions. It seems that the supporters of the Pleistocene hit men' theory persist in ignoring all the evidence of the Alaska muck deposits, filled with the bones of these animals, because they do not want to accept ...
394. Fingerprints of the Gods by Graham Hancock [Journals] [SIS Review]
... orbit the earth. One wonders why it was necessary to sacrifice so many people if they knew the movements of the heavens so accurately. Hancock details Flood stories from various parts of the world, with their Noah figures and survivors. Many cultures have memories of earlier epochs and cataclysms, often accompanied by celestial battles. What of the mass extinctions of species and the animals frozen together in Alaska, Siberia, California etc.? A great deal is made of the precession of the equinoxes and other long term astronomic cycles, one of which (changes in the obliquity of the ecliptic) takes 41,000 years. A conjunction of planets due on 5th May 2000 occurs once ...

... France. The site dates from near the end of the Cretaceous period and appears to have been a tropical plain at the time. Cretaceous began and ended with a bang New Scientist 29.3 .97, p. 21 The catastrophic end of the Cretaceous period is now well known but it also began with a period of large scale extinction. A huge crater in southern Africa has recently been given a dating for the same time. It may well prove to be as large as the crater in Yucatan, now accepted as caused by the impact at the end of the Cretaceous.

... terms of tetrads' and triennia', but precise dates are actually all but unobservable in practice. The proper definition of heliacal rising of Sirius is presumably simultaneous rising of the Sun and Sirius' but there is no possibility of this event ever being directly observed (primarily due to the extreme difference in brightness between the two but refraction and extinction are also involved); the more usual interpretation of the date of heliacal rising (as observed and reported by ancient observers) is first sighting of Sirius before sunrise', but this also is subject to some qualifications in practice - e.g . there would have been occasions when Sirius was fading in and out of sight to ...
397. Predicting the Past (advert) [Journals] [SIS Review]
... ? Most scholars during the past century and a half have regarded these questions as settled once and for all. Ever since Darwin, the great majority of historians, anthropologists and geologists have assumed that the doctrine of gradual evolution was proven beyond need for further discussion. Today, the tide has turned somewhat. School children are taught that the extinction of the dinosaurs was due to the crashing to Earth of a comet or an asteroid sixty million years ago. Astronomers have written books about how asteroid and comet impacts destroyed past civilisations and threaten our present one. Experts in the field of dendrochronology have concluded that treering data show steep environmental downturns within historical times and that these events seem ...

399. Pot Pourri [Journals] [SIS Review]
... points made by the Solutrean culture of France c. 15,000 BC [1 ] are virtually indistinguishable from Clovis points. Tracking the origin of Clovis-type blades back through Alaska to Siberia, the presumed provenance of both culture and people, proved a dead end. All blades found dated to around 9,500BC, the time of the extinction of the mammoths, giant armadillos and virtually all American megafauna, leaving a 500-year-plus gap between occurrences of the style in the two continents. This gap was removed when a spear point similar to Solutrean, dated to 14,000BC, was discovered at Cactus Hill. Douglas Wallace of Emory University, who is mapping the history of world ...
400. Graincollection: Human's Natural Ecological Niche -- A Review [Journals] [Velikovskian]
... externally and internally well watered. Treviño compares the playfulness of early hominids with that of sea otters, but regards the comparison a remote analogy. For Morgan and other aquaticists, the analogy is immediate and ecologically motivated. Catastrophism, as represented by Alfred de Grazia, is the hypothesis that prehistory is punctuated by large-scale physical upheavals which resulted in extinctions, speciations and drastic redirections on human habitats and behaviour patterns.(4 ) In this view, the upheavals, which wipe out some communities and traumatise others, result in partial or total amnesia among survivors. Of the fragmentary memories that persist post catastrophically, the most widespread is the tradition of the Golden Age of harmony and happiness ...
