... one day we might get another really good thump. But not all large impacts need be extinction events. For instance, a respectably sized meteorite, 100 km across, is still only about a millionth the mass of the Earth. Top: Skeleton of Stegosaurus, a Jurassic plated dinosaur. Bottom: Skeleton of Triceratops, a late Cretaceous horned dinosaur. Were these magnificent beasts, or were they not, the victims of cosmic bombardment? Skeleton of Corythosaurus, a Cretaceous duck-billed dinosaur. What is significant about the extinction events on either side of the high iridium horizon is that both were associated with massive changes in sea level. (9 ) The parallel between these events and ...
202. Shamir [Journals] [SIS Review]
... of the northern European tale of the Fenris Wolf, unleashed at Ragnarok (the end times) or the Shropshire tale of 6 whistlers in an endless search for a lost one, the seventh. When they found him the world would terminate, abruptly. The idea of a heavenly and voracious wolf with gaping jaws (a variation of the horns of deity) looming large in the sky (entering the solar system) is apocalyptic. In Egypt, Ursa Minor was associated with an adze that was used in the opening of mouths' ceremony during preparations of pharaonic bodies for the life beyond the tomb. An adze is a form of axe and may have meteoric implications. Arthur ...
203. Night of the Gods: The Pillar [Books]
... stated as to the " bones of Pelops."6 And the true clue to the material is, it now seems to me, to be found (not in " images of bone or ivory," but) in the natural-magnet or the star-stone, the actual substance which Plutarch7 reported Manethon to have said was called the bones of Horns, an expression which must here be equated with the bones of Pelops. The Polladium fell from the heavens, and was thus a star-stone, and the syllable in its name thus exhibits its accord with Voos, and thus too this "bones " myth upholds my assertion that Pal,Las contains the word stone. Note once more ...

205. The Tertiary Satellite immediately before its Cataclysmic Breakdown (Moons, Myths and Man) [Books]
... , much more impressive than the Sun. In the mythological matter preserved in the Book of Daniel we find the following passage (viii. 5): An he goat [used metaphorically for the Tertiary satellite] came from the west on the face of the whole Earth, and touched not the ground: and the goat had a notable horn between his eyes' (a description of a phase and of the surface of the satellite). The exalted Vedic deity Varuna, the Thousand-Eyed', the AII-Enveloper', or Encompasser', is revered as the Regent of the West'. The Cyclopes, according to Homer, lived' in the far west, as did ...
206. A Hypothetical Ancient Telescope [Journals] [Horus]
... Ishtar or Astarte, crescents appear everywhere temples or votive structures are found. Astarte bore a crescented staff. Even in the Judeo-Christian tradition, Satan is also called Lucifer, the "bearer of light. In ancient Hebrew tradition, according to the Encyclopedia Britannica, Lucifer is also associated with Venus the planet. Lucifer traditionally is represented with two horns. Are these the cusps of the crescent planet Venus? The Venus crescent can get as large as ½ arc-minute, which is just beyond the resolution of the normal eye and possibly within the range of people with exceptional visual acuity. But at that time, it is very near inferior conjunction and the crescent is very thin. At ...
207. The Knossos Labyrinth - a new view of the 'Palace of Minos' at Knossos [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... with breasts and an axe symbol. The other powerful symbol at Knossos, the bull, will need little further consideration by catastrophists to place it squarely as the bull of heaven. Even its obvious connection with Poseidon as bull of the sea only raises it once more to the mythological waters above the Earth. Significantly, at Knossos both bulls horns and double axes appear again and again aloft on pillars, sometimes associated with spiral decorations or even surmounted by a tree. Castleden investigates the history of destructions of Knossos and other centres on Crete. He appears to have great sympathy with the idea that the second major destruction at around 1450 BC was caused by the Thera eruption and could ...
208. Introduction [Journals] [SIS Internet Digest]
... 4 volumes, 16 issues, 1 million words) The object is to produce a lasting computer archive that can be used for research and reference. Subject to obtaining permission, it is planned to publish the archive on CD-Rom disc, and later on the Internet. It would then be possible, for example, to search for venus and horns, and not only discover which articles contain both words, but read the full articles too. One problem is that Kronos, Pensée and SIS Journals before 1987 are not available in computerised format, and requires re-entering into a computer using a variety of techniques. The process is only 80-99% accurate, depending on the quality of the ...
209. The Ring About The Earth at 2300 BC [Journals] [SIS Review]
... surface, it would be expected that it would be described by all cultures - and it was. Most commonly, it was described as a circle of flowing water. I have also found 24 interpretations, including a celestial mountain, a serpent holding its tail in its mouth, a time regulator, a chariot wheel and a set of horns. This paper primarily addresses the flowing water. The water interpretation could have been due to two possible factors. The first is related to unevenness in the structure and density of the ring: since the material would be moving at different velocities in different orbits around the Earth, it could have looked like unevenly flowing water. The second ...
