... response to a growing interest in the works of modern catastrophists, notably the highly controversial Dr Immanuel Velikovsky. In his books Worlds in Collision, Earth in Upheaval and Ages in Chaos he argued that the ancient myths and sources such as the Bible contained records of planetary catastrophes in the Earth's history and, based on this, he suggested that geology, cosmology and ancient history should be reconsidered. In cosmology he proposed that electricity played a much larger role than in the orthodox scheme and that Venus in particular was a young planet. In ancient history, he proposed that the orthodox chronology should be severely shortened to eliminate false identifications and fictitious dark ages'. Over the years, ...
792. Palaeomagnetism And Archaeomagnetism [Books]
... will reflect the geomagnetic field existing at the time of manufacture. The TRM of man-made baked clay artifacts in the past is called archaeo-magnetism. Archaeo-magnetism is but a subdivision of palaeo-magnetism. The study of palaeo-magetism and archaeo-magnetism permits an idea to be formed of the evolution of the geomagnetic field in the past, provided that the samples analysed are dated geologically or archaeologically with sufficient accuracy. The results show that the strength of the geomagnetic field has been steadily decreasing for the past 2,000 years. Before that, it is believed that it was decreasing for many centuries, although some recent measurements made in Japan seem to indicate that, in that country, it was increasing from about ...

795. Oceanic Impact may have Inspired Aboriginal Legend [Journals] [SIS Internet Digest]
... @uga.edu Date: 27 April 1998 Sunday Herald, Sun, July 6, 1997 http://omzg.sscc.ru/tsulab/anew.html Tsunami Link to Legend by Graeme O'Neill An Aboriginal legend long thought by historians to mark the arrival of white men in Australia may refer to a giant tidal wave. Geologist Professor Ted Bryant believes the legend of a "white wave" that wiped out Aboriginal culture more than 200 years ago tells of a natural disaster that devastated the south coast of NSW after a comet strike in the Tasman Sea. Most historians had assumed the legend referred to the coming of white men to Sydney Cove in January, 1788 ...
796. Velikovsky and the Decline of Medieval Cosmology [Articles]
... : Brian Moore, Chairman of SIS, introduced Dr. Clube: "He has come to our notice through the REVIEW and through WORKSHOP where articles have been reported written by him and others written in collaboration with his colleague Bill Napier on various aspects of terrestrial catastrophism. The ones that we have seen have been largely concerned with catastrophes in geological times, past epochs. He is in fact a Senior Principal Scientific Officer at the Royal Observatory in Edinburgh and he is also, the most interesting fact, I think, the author of a forthcoming book called THE COSMIC SERPENT which was mentioned very briefly in the last REVIEW, which he has written in collaboration with Bill Napier and ...
797. Velikovsky And Cultural Amnesia [Journals] [Pensee]
... ; Shakespearean studies, Egyptology, and classics. And the splicing of one of these onto another was the rule rather than the exception. The art historian made psychological concepts the backbone of his argument, while the psychiatrist focused on the art work of psychotics. The historian of science was concerned with political influences present at the foundations of modern geology, while the political scientist discussed a classical text. Both the classicist and anthropologist spent half of their time with native American cultures, turning for the other half, respectively, to ancient Egypt and the counter-culture of the Sixties. With a few exceptions, it seemed agreed that the theme of cultural amnesia challenged the present structure of disciplines ...

799. Crazy Heroes of Dark Times [Books] [de Grazia books]
... that Mars' present orbit is in "favorable opposition" respecting Earth every 15 years. Since Mars had a different orbit before -776 and might have changed its orbit at every encounter between -776 and -687, we must of course ultimately use historical evidence to plot all of the encounters. We must bear in mind, too, that the geological and ecological aftermaths of disaster provoked by celestial behavior can continue for some time. Here, also, we have reasoned that only an 11-year interval separated the last two disaster, that is. Mars was on its way to becoming an outer planet and suffered two encounters close together. Although the problem is not insoluble it will require a ...

William Heinemann. 1995 £16 99 Hancock follows his quest for the Ark by a quest to discover the earliest civilized societies.
