... 000 BCE). (3 ) During the Paleolithic age, rock art was primarily devoted to the realistic representation of various forms of wildlife, the latter presumably objects of the hunt and rites of sympathetic magic. (4 ) Especially common are paintings of horses and wisent, the great bison that once roamed the steppes of Europe, although mammoths, woolly Rhinoceroses, and other long extinct fauna also appear. It was during the Neolithic age, apparently, that man began recording his perceptions of celestial phenomena through paintings and petroglyphs (incised images in rock). Not unlike fossilized bones, which provide an objective record against which to check the deductions drawn by paleontologists, rock art ...

163. In Memoriam: Immanuel Velikovsky, Livio Stecchini and Ralph Juergens [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... the alteration of species was not natural selection but catastrophic evolution. At about 10,000 B.C ., for example, the megafauna of the Late Pleistocene changed to the pygmy fauna of today. It was not a slow process, generation by generation, but the catastrophe probably evidenced by well known scenes of disaster like the frozen mammoths of Siberia. In the field of mythology Dr. Velikovsky again distinguished himself by maintaining that the so-called myths of antiquity had strong roots in reality. Astronomers now search these myths and legends to discover remarkable records of novae and other astronomical phenomena. Today Indian rock paintings and ancient structures like the pyramids and Stonehenge are repeatedly analyzed not only ...

165. On Number As Artifact: Part 2: Development [Journals] [Horus]
... are intended rather to suggest predecimal ways of approaching number, since early man was not particularly decimal in his orientation to the world. He was lunar among other things. The exemplary work of Alexander Marshack suggests that this was the case as long as 20,000 years ago, when man began notating lunar phases on pieces of bone and mammoth tusk. [8 ] Early man was trying to find a set-theory way of counting the day of the year. Decimal methods (10 x 36) didn't even come close. Duodecimal counting (12 x 30) produced the same result and thus also had to be discarded. The smallest base that could produce 364 was 4. ...

167. An Extraterrestrial Hypothesis [Journals] [SIS Internet Digest]
... , Siberian Division, Joint Institute of Geological Geophysics & Mineralogy, Novosibirsk 630090, Russia. About 10,000 years ago, at the Pleistocene-Holocene border, some important events occurred: the glaciation stopped abruptly; the sea level elevated, and quick (for 20-50 years) climatic and ecological changes took place, leading to the extinction of "mammoth fauna" and exerting a direct effect on mankind's evolution and appearance of civilizations. It is shown in the paper that the disaster under study was caused by the collision of the Earth with an eruptive comet, brought various volcanic tektite glasses from a remote planetary body. This extra-terrestrial source of tektites is proven by the well-known but not adopted ...

... have been weaker by 2.8 times today's gravity. Second, he mentioned other difficulties, like lifting their long necks and holding up their tails. He added evidence that the attenuation of gravity must have continued to some degree into the times of the monument-building humans. One of my rhetorical questions: if they manage to clone the Siberian mammoth, will it be crippled by our gravity when it reaches maturity? The inescapable conclusion was expressed best in the popular 80's movie trilogy Back to the Future- "What's so heavy? Is there something wrong with gravity in the future?" This was my second chance to hear geologist Robert Schoch's analysis of the Sphinx. He presents ...
170. On the geographical displacement of poles after close passage of a body of planetary size [Journals] [SIS Internet Digest]
... temperature, the stronger were these fluctuations. During the Late Glacial Maximum, about 20 000 years ago, the ice cover was asymmetrically distributed around the present position of the poles. On the northern hemisphere it reached the region of present New York and covered northern Germany, while eastern Siberia and parts of Alaska were ice free and inhabited by mammoths. Some of these were found in deep frozen state,indicating a rapid temperature drop in these areas. A postulate that the North Pole was in the Baffin Bay region and swiftly moved to its present position near the end of the Ice Age, 11 500 years ago, was refuted more than a century ago. Indeed, deformations ...
