... From: Kronos Vol. XI No. 1 (Fall 1985) Home | Issue Contents On the Nature of Cometary Symbolism David Talbott and Ev Cochrane BACKGROUND In our previous paper (KRONOS X:1 ), we proposed a unique mythological connection between a former "sun" god and a prehistoric comet. The old god we recognized as Saturn, the central, polar sun of earliest remembered times; and the comet we identified as Velikovsky's comet Venus, an active participant in the events of Saturn's epoch. Numerous myths and closely related symbols, we suggested, appear to associate a comet-like Venus with the band of the "enclosed sun" , the ancient image of Saturn ...
462. Catastrophism and the Mammoths- III (Vox Populi) [Journals] [Kronos]
... From: Kronos Vol. XI No. 3 (Summer 1986) Home | Issue Contents Vox Populi Catastrophism and the Mammoths- III To the Editor of KRONOS: THE MAMMOTH IN ICE AND SNOW When it comes to the significance of Neuville's observations concerning the apparent lack of sebaceous glands in the skin of the mammoth, my critics are divided. Leroy Ellenberger repeats his earlier belief that, because the creature lacked such glands, its other apparent morphological adaptations to a glacial climate are inadequate to categorize it as an arctic animal. Elsewhere, however, he relents a little: "Whether or not the mammoth was truly adapted to life in present arctic conditions will likely never be ...

464. Velikovsky's Legacy [Articles]
... since 1950 which suggests that several of Velikovsky's more specific-and seemingly most fantastic-claims were right. Here I will focus on developments I have been involved in, either directly or indirectly. In 1983, Dave Talbott and myself began a series of collaborative researches on Venus' role in ancient myth and religion. This research spawned a trilogy of articles for Kronos and continues today. Talbott and I began by investigating the most common ancient terms for "comet", including "hair-star", "serpent-star", "bearded-star", "tailed- star", "torch-star", "smoking-star", etc. Such terminology, as we documented, was not only common to most ancient ...
465. On testing The Polar configuration [Journals] [Aeon]
... the Greek historian Diodorus reports that Babylonian astronomers knew the planet Saturn as the star of the "sun" (Helios). (7 ) Though early Egyptian sources do not offer a formal astronomy to directly connect their gods with planets, (8 ) a later Egyptian ostrakon cited by Franz Boll identifies the sun god Ra as the Greek Kronos, the planet Saturn. (9 ) In the Epinomis of Plato, the names of the five planets are given. In the earliest copies of the text, the name for the planet Saturn is Helios, the "sun." For many years scholars considered this a mistake and the reading was usually "corrected" to Kronos ...
466. "Just Plainly Wrong": A Critique of Peter Huber (Second Installment) [Journals] [Kronos]
... From: Kronos Vol. IV No. 2 (Winter 1978) "Scientists Confront Scientists Who Confront Velikovsky" Home | Issue Contents "Just Plainly Wrong": A Critique of Peter Huber (Second Installment)Lynn E. Rose [Footnote: *ACKNOWDGEMENT. This entire critique of Huber draws very heavily upon joint research and writing done during the past seven years with Raymond C. Vaughan. This is especially true regarding the Ninsianna discussions (which appear in the present installment), but there is no section of the critique that has not benefitted from Vaughan's valuable corrections, clarifications, and suggested additions of further materials.] The first installment of this paper, dealing ...

... that all men once saw the "beginning" at the pole. One of the oldest thoughts of primeval Greece given in the ancient records is that relating to the birth of Zeus, the sky-god, or the isle of Krete, the Latin Crete. It is related how in a very short time the infant, concealed from his father Kronos, grew to be absolute sovereign of the heavens, and as such drove all his foes, as the Giants and Titans out of the skies. Now whatever may be said of Zeus, the sky-god, in later times, there can be no questioning the fact that at his birth he was the infant true sky. The birth ...
469. Citing the Work of Others: A Critique [Journals] [Aeon]
... pointed the way to a solution by challenging Egyptian chronology, Velikovsky understood little of archaeology and nothing of stratigraphy." [33] More sadly, in the same work, James fails to cite a single work by Velikovsky except for Ages in Chaos which he misdates to 1953. Neither does he reference even one appropriate contribution to Pensée, KRONOS, or SISR. For James, as for Sweeney, it is as though Pensée and KRONOS never existed. On the positive side and to his credit, James did give serious consideration to the problem of the Dark Age of Greece, but relied solely on establishment authors to make his case. [34] As previously noted, ...
470. Discussion [Journals] [Aeon]
... Occultation of Neptune. II The Oblateness of Neptune," ASTRONOMICAL JOURNAL, 90:12, p. 2637. Huwawa SPEAKER: Dwardu Cardona In AEON II:1 , p. 130, Norman Schwartz registered his disagreement with Ev Cochrane's identification of Huwawa as a personification of Saturn (see Cochrane in AEON I:4 :95-97 and KRONOS IX:2 :15-16). This disagreement also reflects on my own article in KRONOS IX:2 since, like Cochrane, I adhere to this Saturnian identification. According to Schwartz, Huwawa should instead be interpreted as an erupting terrestrial volcano. This interpretation is based on the events narrated in the Epic of Gilgamesh. There Huwawa ...
