... a systematic way in both parts of the name. However, the temporal order of these is not clear. The basic question to ask is: is Smenkhkare (the first form) a different name, or a different individual to Neferneferuaten (the third form)? There is another name which appears on some items with some explicitly feminine linguistic indicators, however this does not appear in a cartouche. Should we interpret the feminine indicators as another name for the same individual, another individual altogether, or simply a grammatical long-hand filling in something implicit in the others? Additionally we have the question of who ruled Egypt - was Smenkhkare: a coregent who died before Akhenaten, or ...
142. In Memoriam: Roger Williams Wescott [Journals] [Aeon]
... 1905 - November 21, 2000 L. M. Greenberg The passing of Roger Wescott this past November marked a major loss to the scholarly world at large and the Velikovsky camp in particular. A true polymath, Professor Wescott was a voracious reader and prolific author whose published works numbered in the hundreds. Equally at home in the fields of linguistics and anthropology, Professor Wescott was also eminently capable when it came to dealing with the subjects of catastrophism, myth, and prehistory. He was a consummate academician who founded various departments and programs along with serving as an officer or editor for several distinguished organizations. His penultimate work, Predicting the Past, appeared only four months prior to ...

144. Maya Cosmos: A Saturnian Interpretation [Journals] [Aeon]
... Dwardu Cardona, David Talbott, and Ev Cochrane. [3 ] As my title suggests, Maya Cosmos is the primary source for this paper as it brings together recent findings of the late 1980s and early 90s in all the various fields of study in the Maya world. This was an explosive time for the archaeologists, epigraphers, and linguists as a critical mass seemed to have been reached that fostered a new and far more complete understanding of the ancient Maya. Even the sociologists and folklorists that travel through the towns and villages of today's Maya find an astonishing amount of belief and ritual which has its origin in the only recently re-discovered past. This aspect, of people today ...
145. Star Words [Journals] [SIS Internet Digest]
... goes directly from the French to Latin astrum' and Greek astron'. In fact, according to this dictionary, until 1669, disaster' had the sense an obnoxious planet'! ROGER WESCOTT jumps in: Ted Bond rightly perceives a connection between Indo-European nouns cognate with English "star" and Semitic names like Akkadian Ishtar. Most historical linguists, adhering to conventional chronology, either descry lexical coincidence here or derive the I.E . from the Sem. forms. I am inclined, rather, to regard the Sem. forms as borrowings from I.E ., for 4 reasons: (1 ) these forms are wide-spread in I.E . but not in ...
146. Celestial Rings [Journals] [Aeon]
... same "dark matter" that uniformitarians invoke to provide gravitational cohesion to galaxies. But I can't tell whether this matter is supposed to be plasma, dispersed dust, or something else. I look forward to his response to these questions. Henry Zemel explains: It seems that my dyslexic terminology did not escape the discerning eye of an experienced linguist. Professor Wescott is correct in referring to the bodies as "ringmoons" and "ringplanets," rather than "moonrings" and "planetrings." Concerning the circularization of Venus' orbit: Here I must refrain from any assumption about the age of Venus. If Occam's razor were to cut history to size, the simplest scenario ...

148. Morning Star II [Journals] [Aeon]
... versions of the Old Testament have supplanted the name "Helel" with "Lucifer," a Latin name that means "Light Bringer" or "Light Bearer," a designation for the same planet as Morning Star. It should, however, be kept in mind that, in Hebrew, "Helel" does not have the same linguistic connotation as "Lucifer" and, in fact, translators, theologians, and mythologists had no real basis for supplanting Helel with Lucifer. While on the subject of Lucifer, I should also state for the record that the identification of Lucifer or Helel as Satan is merely a late interpretation of the Church Fathers who saw in the words ...

150. Genes, Peoples, and Languages by Luigi Luca Cavalli-Sforza (Book Review). C&C Review 2002:1 [Journals] [SIS Review]
... gypsies of the sea'. I am reminded of Pygmy Kitabu (Random House, New York, 1974) by Jean Pierre-Hallet, a Belgian anthropologist who lived with and studied the Pygmies of the Congo rainforest. He formulated a theory that they were the original people from which all other human groups have descended. Cavalli-Sforza uses modern genetic and linguistic research but arrives at a similar theory on the out of Africa' question. Pygmies inhabited a large area of Africa until the expansion of the Bantu-speaking peoples (Negroes from West Africa). They are mentioned in Egyptian Old Kingdom texts, according to Pierre-Hallet, but unfortunately he shows a bias in favour of the pygmies and apparent dislike ...
