... . And man was fully man even then! We must look for the rise of man at a much, much earlier time than we have been taught to do by geology. Though in culture and civilization not much more than a troglodyte at the times of stress created by the close approach and breakdown of a satellite, man was, ... off on some half-dozen occasions in the Earth's history; and only these reveal to us their earlier forms. To discover something about man, we must not go to the geologist, who can only show us a couple of jaws and an empty brainpan or two, the relics of unlucky wretches who perished in the last stages of the cataclysm ...

... in the 3rd and the early 2nd millennia B. C., the period of the standing stone sites. Moreover there are now available a number of radiocarbon dates for geological features formed at the time of the final retreat of the ice sheets in N Europe and these all fall in or very close to the last half of the 9th ... Cardona's doubts. It really will not do to dismiss the climatic evidence so lightly. There is a mass of literature on this subject and scores of botanists, climatologists, geologists and archaeologists have worked on post-glacial climatic problems for many decades. I suggest Mr. Cardona starts by reading Professor Lamb's paper in the volume of the Phil. Trans ...
203. Long Term Violation of Uniformitarianism Demonstrated by Fossil Discoveries in Polar Regions [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... a broad astronomical perspective and support Velikovsky's fundamental idea of global catastrophe in historical times when people were living in cities. I propose to show that uniformitarianism has been violated for geologically immense periods of time within the last 100 million years. Impact occurrences, whether by meteorites or comets, are not the only or even primary exceptions to uniform geological ... degrees Fahrenheit warmer while the tropics do not even warm up to 10 degrees Fahrenheit? Where did the meltwater go? If the tropical rainforest zone averaged 100 degrees Fahrenheit, geologists claim a drying trend would set in, killing the trees. As the Sun's rays fall directly near the equator while the poleward sides of the Arctic and Antarctic circles ...

... primates, the highest order of the mammals, must be regarded as a most remarkable instance of rapid evolution of species," writes D. N. Wadia in his Geology of India.3The hippopotamus, which "generally is a climatically specialized type" (De Terra), pigs, rhinoceroses, apes, oxen filled the interior of ... in the Siwalik beds, only one species has survived in India. "The sudden and widespread reduction by extinction of the Siwalik mammals is a most startling event for the geologist as well as the biologist. The great carnivores, the varied races of elephants belonging to no less than 25 to 30 species . . . the numerous tribes of ...
205. Polymathics and Catastrophism: A Multidisciplinary Approach to Problems of Evolutionary Theory [Journals] [Kronos]
... , such energies lend themselves far more readily to a catastrophic than to a uniformitarian view of the cosmos and of the transformations that the cosmos has undergone. THE MEANING OF GEOLOGICAL BOUNDARIES Of all the evidence for catastrophically sudden events in the history of our planet, none, it seems to me, is less deservedly ignored - by catastrophists themselves ... agree that most of the terrestrial past has been a record of undisturbed gradualism. But they maintain that this record has been punctuated periodically by violent and world-wide episodes of what geologists call diastrophism - that is, major rearrangement of the Earth's surface. (The term diastrophism, which was introduced only in 1881, comes from the same root as ...

A. Schaeffer, cultural historian Jacques Barzun, electrophysicist Alfred Goldsmith, Egyptologist Etienne Drioton, literary critic Salvador de Madariaga, geologist Harry H.

... traumatic events, apparently experienced on a global scale. Using a comparative method, he pieced together a coherent story. In support of his reconstruction he found physical evidence from geology, paleontology, and archeology. He also formulated a series of predictions-consistent with his hypothesis, but unexpected by previous theories. He predicted that the planet Jupiter would emit ... than astronomers expected; and that craters on the moon would reveal remanent magnetism and radioactive hot spots. Velikovsky's ability to anticipate scientific discovery produced a surprising statement from the renowned geologist Harry Hess (in an open letter to Velikovsky in 1963): "Some of these predictions were said to be impossible when you made them. All of them ...
