... : Declination is the astronomic equivalent of terrestrial latitude. For instance, the brightest star in Cassiopeia has a declination of just over 56 N and it passes directly over Oban once in every 24 hours (approx.). If the earth turns upside down, its declination then becomes 56 S and it passes over the southern tip of Cape Horn instead. It would be invisible from Oban but it remains visible from everywhere south of the Mediterranean (that is, at some time of the day or night; to see it at night only, an Egyptian observer might have to wait several months). MG READE, D. S. C., received his training in ...

... guide to the available lines of evidence on the complex problems of dating the end of the MBA and the bichrome pottery of the early LBA, and the exercise of working the Conquest/end-of-MBA link-up into a conventional scheme of chronology shows the enormous flexibility in interpreting the ceramic evidence for this period. Recently the eminent Biblical archaeologist Siegfried H. Horn, reviewing three books on the life of Moses (Biblical Archaeology Review, June 1977, pp. 22-31), deplored the unquestioning way in which the 13th-century date is currently accepted, and asked that the 15th-century date should not so cavalierly be dismissed". He added: "It is high time that another detailed and penetrating study ...
215. The MacCecht and Cuchulainn [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... Horse has been dated as early as 1,000BC. However the Saxons also perceived deity in the form of a horse and the famous White Horses of Vienna are a modern survival of this belief amongst the Germans. The chalk hill figures have cometary parallels because the head of the horse consists mainly of a round eye with two rays or horns and the body is long and flowing and has an extending tail. It could virtually be described as a dragon. The Greek horse deity Erinus seems to have the same etymology as Erainn, with specific Aryan origins. It seems more than likely that Bernal, in Black Athena, overstated the Semitic influence on Greek religion and myth, ...

In an old quarry at Woodhill, Kilmauns, Ayrshire, under thick boulder Drift, were found some years ago the relics of at least eight mammoths, as also, under the same deposits, the remains of extinct species of red and fallow deer. A head and horns of a fine elk recovered from a marl pit in Perthshire are preserved in the Hunterian Museum, Glasgow, and the elephant has been found under till on the line of the Union canal.

... . Earth's present magnetic field forms patterns over the poles, which are only visible with ultra-violet and infra-red light. If these patterns were made visible by dust and ice from approaching rings, then all the constituents of the Polar Configuration' would have been seen in the form of a god or goddess with bright glowing head, upraised arms, horns, halo, flounced skirt, etc. The people of the period would also have noticed that catastrophic falls of debris happened when the Moon rose at its most extreme southerly position.

... are devoted singly and solely to the one God, for He is the God of gods and the Lord of lords. If you will act according to my words, the glory of the Lord shall appear unto you. '" But Aaron in his humility still did not dare to enter on his priestly activities. The aspect of the horned altar filled him with fear, for it reminded him of the worship of the bull by Israel, an incident in which he felt he had not been altogether without blame.
