... Solbon' (= star') [9 ]. In short, the evidence from comparative archaeoastronomy provides strong support for the conclusion that Inanna's star was indeed the planet Venus. Other aspects of the iconography surrounding Inanna/Ishtar also support her identification with Venus. Very early on, for example, the goddess appears alternately with beard, horns and armed as a warrior, the very same characteristics associated with the planet Venus in ancient Babylonian astronomical records [10]. Such correspondences suggest a continuity between the Babylonian astronomical records involving Venus and the earliest cult of Inanna/Ishtar. Like it or not, the traditions surrounding the planet Venus remain remarkably consistent from the earliest historical ...
... relate that Venus smoked"; "it is .. . said in the Vedas that... Venus looks like fire with smoke. . . . in the Talmud. . Fire is hanging down from the planet Venus'" 1~io8: 163- 64]; and descriptions from various peoples of Venus having a beard or horns. Thus Velikovsky builds his case, with innumerable quotations from records of many ages and many parts of the world. His book contains more than 300 pages of such correlations and deductions. Advance Claims In the last chapter of Worlds in Collision (as well as in some earlier sections of the book) Velikovsky states his conclusions about some ...

... large radius of Chernobyl frequently show large birth defects, including the lower half of the body like a fish tail or short wing-like arms. Ancient lights National Geographic October 1992, p. 86 and August 1992, p. 11 In Paraguay a union of ancient traditions and Catholicism has led to a procession to the Virgin led by flaming bulls horns; a Russian Yuletide tradition has the Christ child's light as a twirling star. Billions of years or hundreds?The Facts of Life (Richard Milton) p. 47 Milton quotes a study of Hawaiian basaltic lavas only 190 years old which were dated by the potassium-argon method to anything from 160 Myrs to 3 billion years.

... battle. In the hall of the Dinosauria of the Jurassic period, in the American Museum of Natural History, the final scene of such a battle is reconstructed, showing a carnivorous dinosaur- Allosaurus- tearing the carcass of the fallen brontosaur. What was the weapon of Diplodocus and Brontosaurus? These animals seventy and eighty feet long had no horns, no claws, and no teeth suited for offence or defence. "They were apparently unarmed and weaponless, unless the terminal ten feet of the tail, which was sometimes slender like a whiplash, might be interpreted as a weapon. "( 6 ) It is sometimes supposed that the cause of the extinction of the dinosaurs, ...

... 1957 passage.(32) Comet Kohoutek deveIoped a similar spike as it passed near the Sun as seen by Sky-Lab astronauts.(33) Since then, other spiked comets have been observed, always occurring in the ecliptic near the Sun.(34) Pliny the Elder in his Second Book of Natural History speaks of comets that project horns, and there are many other ancient references to unusual comets. Data which must be included are the 6,000 year old American Indian rock paintings found near Green River, Utah.(35) The paintings are unmistakably those of a comet with a spike in the form of a helix. One shows the comet with a large ...
... rejecting her and other fabled Argives as real persons.4 It brings us nearer to the point in that Jo was identified as Isis by the Greeks, and Seyffert, a reliable classical lexicographer, does the same and thinks she was the moon goddess.5 Doubtless this was because Isis was depicted as a cow with a circle between her horns. I am sorry to have to doubt the moon theory and suggest on the contrary that Io, like Isis, should be sought rather in the Underworld than in the skies above. Horus, such as those allotted to Isis and Io, with the circle placed between them, signified something very different to the moon. Isis, ...

... which Egypt resembled the most ancient Orient. There is no comforting, reassuring linkage of their philosophy to ours, no direct inheritance to make them merely the childhood of our own supposedly superior beliefs and institutions. Egypt died without heirs. One after another her destroyers paraded and gave victory speeches, marched about with her corpse impaled on their conquering horns, imagining that they had drained her of her secrets. The process still continues, and any doubts, however well-founded, are treated with increasing disdain. The pivotal reason for this is the now nearly universally held belief that we can read all of the Egyptian texts as easily as we can read Greek or Latin, making this an ...

... III, as well as the dating of objects discovered in the necropolis of Tell el-Yahudiya (Peoples, pp. 12-17), parallels similar scholarly disputes previously discussed by Velikovsky. In the 1880's, Ramsay and Petrie argued over the dating of the Lion Gate at Mycenae,(4 ) at the turn of the century Murray and Evans locked horns regarding the dating of Cypriot art of the Mycenaean Age (5 ) Dorpfeld and Furtwangler had a bitter feud when it came to dating archaeological material uncovered at Olympia;(6 ) the excavation of Tiryns, likewise, gave rise to its share of chronological debate.(7 ) In all cases, the common denominator was the fact ...
