... that the bones of the mammoth are not infrequently unearthed under the Drift or boulder stones, especially in Scotland where he haunted the primeval forests. In an old quarry at Woodhill, Ayrshire, under thick boulder Drift some years ago were found the remains of at least eight mammoths and, in addition, under the same deposits the bones and horns of extinct species of red and fallow deer. A head and horns of a pine elk recovered from a marl pit in Perthshire are preserved in the Hunterian Museum, Glasgow, and the mammoth has been found under till on the line of the Union Canal. The Rev. F. Smith, the authority for these statements, says ...
132. On Comets, Comet-Like Luminous Apparitions and Meteors [Journals] [Kronos]
... it split and formed a bright head which, in the space of four to eight days, became enveloped by concentric shells resembling onion skins. The nucleus of a comet, as long as it is still distant, resembles a veiled star. Approaching the Sun, it becomes very bright and on its sunward side a luminous fountain (left horn) materializes which assumes enormous dimensions and is called the "coma". Once this peculiar emanation has reached a certain peak, it curves around and apparently falls back towards the nucleus (right horn); in actuality, however, it stretches behind the nucleus into space and comes into view as a gigantic tail turned away from the ...

... an area off Cornwall, previously identified with the Cornish myth of the lost land of Lyonesse, while an international team is following up the idea that it was in Lake Poopo in the Bolivian Andes. However the evidence, like all the evidence for the placement of holy mountains, often points just as surely to the ancient skies.

... . And the boat was fair to gaze on, But of evil disposition; It would go to needless combat, And would fight when cause was lacking. Ilmarinen casts the boat back into the fire, and on the following day he gazes anew at the bottom of the furnace, 101 And a heifer then rose upward, With her horns all golden-shining, With the Bear-stars on her forehead; On her head appeared the Sun-disc. And the cow was fair to gaze on, But of evil disposition; Always sleeping in the forest, On the ground her milk she wasted. Therefore did smith Ilmarinen Take no slightest pleasure in her, And he cut the cow to fragments ...

... a crescent. This would be possible if Jupiter was slightly out of alignment from the polar axis. Keep in mind here that all the illustrations presented by Talbott depict the disk as being on the crescent. The crescent itself is never part of the disk. Also, in Egyptian depictions, the disk is always shown as being on the horns of the "bull of heaven." Or, as Talbott himself states: "The [Saturnian] model predicts [that] the horns of the bull were a crescent." [107] And, a little further: "The model predicts [that] the sun god rested between the horns." [108] ...

... boundaries of South America are both about a sixth longer than the corresponding ones of Africa where the fit is required to justify P. (6 ) Africa and South America separated partly in shear seen as "Continental Slope" and "Continental Rise" around the goose-neck of the (mostly submerged) south end of South America where Africa's Cape Horn must fit. There is a characteristic shear pattern of the Antilles in the continental slope from Trinidad to Guadalupe. This is what makes the corresponding boundary of Africa quite sharp. (7 ) The boundary between Natal and Trinidad is not only a sixth longer than that of Africa from Malabo to Sierra Leone where the fit is required, ...

... country while the Israelites are confined to the less hospitable hill country. An explanation for the role of Joshua, as perceived by the pre-Deuteronomist compiler, is the divinity of kingship. [l0] The victory of pharaoh was also the victory of god(s ). Pharaoh was a young and rampaging bull (he was believed to bear horns), and a devouring lion (he was fierce), and he attacked his enemies like a great storm and consuming fire. These are stylized divine epithets applied to pharaoh, as he was conceived as god on earth, a Lord who subdued both earthly and heavenly foes. [11] Hence, the analogy with the Book ...
138. Jericho [Journals] [Kronos]
... war passed over before the Lord unto battle, to the plains of Jericho." "Now Jericho was straitly shut up because of the children of Israel: none went out, and none came in." After a few days of siege, the earth groaned loudly- the Israelites thought in answer to their invocation and their blowing the horns, and "the wall fell down flat." The conquerors entered the defenseless city and "utterly destroyed all that was in the city" (Joshua 2:3 ; 4:13; 6: 1; 6:20-21). Joshua proclaimed a curse upon anyone who would rebuild Jericho: "He shall lay the foundation ...

... without a sign of degeneration vanished. "A considerable group have become extinct virtually within the last few thousand years. . . . The large mammals that died out [in America] include all the camels, all the horses, all the ground sloths, two genera of musk-oxen, peccaries, certain antelopes, a giant bison with a horn spread of six feet, a giant beaver-like animal, a stag-moose, and several kinds of cats, some of which were of lion size."1 Also the Imperial elephant and the Columbian mammoth, animals larger than the African elephant and common all over North America, disappeared. The mastodon that inhabited the forests and ranged from Alaska ...
... great-grandson Lamech. This Lamech was blind, and when he went a-hunting, he was led by his young son, who would apprise his father when game came in sight, and Lamech would then shoot at it with his bow and arrow. Once upon a time he and his son went on the chase, and the lad discerned something horned in the distance. He naturally took it to be a beast of one kind or another, and he told the blind Lamech to let his arrow fly. The aim was good, and the quarry dropped to the ground. When they came close to the victim, the lad exclaimed: "Father, thou hast killed something that ...
