752. Authors Preface [Books]
... was shown that living creatures could evolve by abrupt changes after exposure to radiation. A new era was opened to science. In 1929, the reality of huge meteorites having struck our planet was demonstrated, a fact which had previously been vigorously denied. Since then evidence has been accumulating in favour of the meteoritic origin of larger and still larger geological structures. It becomes more and more evident to scientists specialising in the study of meteoritic features, that impacts by celestial bodies may have played an important role in the shaping of our planet. Are we thus not entitled to wonder about the implications of such evidence, which continues to accumulate? May we not ask ourselves how Lyell and ...
753. Quantavolutions [Books] [de Grazia books]
... From: The Lately Tortured Earth, by Alfred De Grazia Home | Issue Contents Chapter 1 Quantavolutions Clarence King was the first Director of the United States Geological Survey. He was liberally educated at Yale University and spent years in field work thereafter. According to the historian Bancroft, he "had acquired a reputation and a position second to no scientist in America." When he returned to lecture at the Sheffield Scientific School of Yale in 1877, he argued against the prevailing opinions in geology and evolution, insisting on the basis of his experiences and visions as a surveyor that the Earth had been lately devastated. The belief in catastrophism, he said, in surprising pre-Jungian language ...
754. Evidence that the Earth has Suffered Catastrophes of Cosmic Origin in Historical Times: the Conclusions of the 2nd SIS Conference [Journals] [SIS Review]
... ? Finally, we must consider the future of interdisciplinary studies in the aftermath of the 2nd Conference. Our 3rd Conference will be concerned with catastrophes in prehistoric times. Already the scientific community has come round to positions which are not 4.6 billion radiometric years away from those in Earth in Upheaval. Velikovsky's criticisms of many paradigms of modern geology and evolutionary theory have been vindicated: Earth's past is catastrophic, not gradualist as was thought in 1952. But it remains to be seen just how much of the detail of his reconstruction will stand up to scrutiny. For instance, his work implies a drastic reduction in geological time scales and a possible overlap into the historical period ( ...
755. Cuban Prehistory [Journals] [Kronos]
... but one is strongly led to suspect that catastrophic events were involved- a suspicion that is strengthened from a catastrophist perspective when we consider that the end of the Ciboney occupation has been dated at approximately 1300 B.C .( 10-13) This site has been described by Drs. Cañas-Abril, Chavez, and Luft, of the Geography and Geology Departments of the University of Oriente, as a deltic formation flanked by emersion terraces of probable Tertiary origin. This site remained unoccupied until the arrival of the Sub-Taíno inhabitants about 830 A.D .; and between the two levels lies a 1.2 meter layer of sterile sand, rose-tinted at its inferior margin. In this context ...

This book follows up the new theory of endogeny developed in the previous book. Geological phenomena are explained by volatile emanations from inner earth cased by carbide/hydride activity. Hydridic Earth, The New Geology of our Primordially Hydrogen-Rich Planet, by Vladimir N. Larin. $44 US,$60 CDN. In a similar vein, the author's theory that the Earth's core contains enormous hydrogen resources is used to explain geological ...
757. A Working Hypothesis. Ch.9 Axis Shifted (Earth In Upheaval) [Velikovsky] [Velikovsky Earth in Upheaval]
... remains a baffling mystery, a major question for the future reader of earth's riddles."2 Species and genera of animals were extinguished. "The biologist is in despair as he surveys the extinction of so many species and genera in the closing Pleistocene [Ice Age]."3 Equally sudden and unexplained changes accompanied the close of each geological period. What caused tropical forests to grow in polar regions? What caused volcanic activity on a great scale in the past and lava flows on land and in the ocean beds? What caused earthquakes to be so numerous and violent in the past? Puzzlement, despair, and frustration are the only answers to each and every one of ...

... concerned are, exclusively, the frozen remains of the woolly mammoth - i.e ., Mammuthus primigenius - a creature which cannot be shown to have existed earlier than the penultimate glaciation of Europe (240,000-200,000 B.P .) and which, along with other animal species, became extinct at the end of the geological division known as the Pleistocene.(6 ) The locality of their deep-frozen corpses is, of course, the permafrost zone of the present Arctic Circle.(7 ) In addressing the problem of the frozen mammoths, it may be considered legitimate to include other polar regions and other species and, indeed, frozen specimens other than Mammuthus ...

760. Ash [Journals] [Pensee]
... the chronology of Egypt and the ancient East will need a drastic revision in the light of my work. A copy of my book will reach you in a few days, and I like to hope that you will find time to look into it. The second volume is set, however not yet published. At present I work on geological chronology and I anticipate that some of fossils ascribed to the Pleistocene Age will be found, like the roots associated with Pleistocene mammals of Tepexpan, in sediments only 3500 years old. However, I wonder whether the supplanting of organic carbon by lime carbon in fossil bones allows their radioactive dating. Finally, I would suggest a radio-carbon analysis ...
