... consist of sandy loams containing remains of temperate climate trees such as chestnut, ginkgo and lime. These are succeeded by a 150m-200m thick layer enclosing the remains of such non-Arctic animals as camel, beaver and bison, mixed with those of reindeer. The final (upper) layer, 35m-49m thick, contains the remains of the woolly rhinoceros, mammoth, horse, and bison [3l]. All these layers are permanently refrigerated, the uppermost ground surface of the formation generally being, on average, free of frost for just one or two months a year [32, 33] It was this near-continuous frozen aspect of the permafrost that initially induced students of the remains of the ...

... as the circles, zigzags and spirals. At Stonehenge itself the erection of 4 bluestones around 2500 BC indicated a change from Moon worship to Sun worship. The mystery of the Long Man of Wilmington, a massive figure carved into the chalk hillside of southern England, has also been solved; he was a surveyor holding his measuring tools. Mammoth extinctions National Geographic February 1992, geographica; New Scientist 2.5 .92, p. 14 A mathematical computer programme run by an archaeologist showing varying population densities of early man and mammoths in North America shows that for thousands of years after the first arrival of men there would be no effect upon the mammoths but when the human ...
... at the same time, on the evidence of Prof. Suess, Canada was closely connected with Greenland. The geological formation of the North American land surfaces with their schists, clays, and old red sandstone correspond (says Suess) with the opposing regions of the old world. The fauna and flora Clearly suggest a prior contact. The mammoth, musk-ox, elk, the red deer, and many other species of mammals are now extinct in America or are found only in one continent, but were once common to both. What violent occurrence caused the musk-ox and the Irish elk to become extinct in Europe, and the mammoth of both continents, to quote Suess, " ...

... (marin) and freshwater (eau douce) formations, whilst at the bottom right is a layer of detrital silt' (limon d'atterrissement). As an indication of the speed of action of the most recent of the révolutions, if not the others, Cuvier drew attention to the discovery of unputrified carcasses of large extinct mammals such as mammoths in frozen lands to the north, reports of which reached Paris in 1807. Later, in 1829, Léonce Élie de Beaumont (1798-1874) suggested a possible mechanism for the révolutions, arguing that even if the Earth was cooling slowly and gradually as Buffon proposed, and that the reduction in volume led to mountain building, then this ...

... have been torn apart and dismembered and then consolidated under catastrophic conditions. Skin, ligament, hair, flesh, can still be seen."1 Then human artifacts were found under the mass of torn animals and splintered trees. These artifacts do not differ much from those used only recently by the Indians of the Tanana Valley in Alaska. Mammoths, mastodons, superbison, lions, horses were found among other animals. Since then similar finds of bones and artifacts have been unearthed all over Asia. They bring to mind the finds made long ago in the "Ivory Islands" of the Arctic Ocean above Siberia. "These islands were full of mammoth bones, and the quantity ...
46. Unorthodox evidence from Mexico [Journals] [SIS Review]
... From: SIS Chronology & Catastrophism Review 1998:2 (Mar 1998) Home | Issue Contents Unorthodox evidence from Mexico Impossible 250,000 Year Old Mammoth Hunters Near the volcano Popocatepetl, 100 miles east of Mexico City, lies a region of badlands famous for over a century for its amazing collection of Ice Age (Pleistocene) faunal remains. In 1935 a young prehistorian, later to be Professor Juan Armenta Camacho, came across the bones of a mammoth eroding in a dry valley. Embedded in the huge leg bone was a flint spear point. Over the next 30 years he amassed a collection of over 3000 fossil bones, many with cut and fracture marks indicating human ...

... the animals in a short period of great slaughter. L. Krishtalka, arguing against the overkill theorists, stated that "[ t ]heir selective acceptance of only `good' dates- those that fit the model (for example, dates for human beings in North America no older than 12,000 [years] BP and those for mammoths no younger than 10,000 [years] BP) --may play fast and loose with evidence that [does not] fit." (17) Charles Hapgood showed that mammoths lived in areas where an ice sheet was present at that same time. Furthermore, mammoth bones have radiocarbon dates of less than 10,000 years in ...

... integrity as it passed through space and the atmosphere by the repulsion of its surroundings, but driven down to Earth's surface by decrease in the repulsion, until ultimately a "soft explosion extinguished the oxygen available to human and replaced it by methane, carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide or these together. We turn next to the famous case of the mammoths, not waiting for the chapter on extinction [6 ]. One almost should say the "deathless" case, for it has endured the whole battle between catastrophists and uniformitarians, two hundred years - except that now it may even become the case of the "deathless" mammoth, for a late news report tells us that certain ...
49. Editor's Page [Journals] [Aeon]
... From: Aeon V:5 (Jan 2000) Home | Issue Contents Editor's Page Dwardu Cardona I love mammoths. I have always loved them, even though I have never really seen one. I love them because they seem to have been such noble-looking beasts. And if present-day elephants are anything to judge by, they probably were just as docile when not preyed upon. I was, therefore, elated to hear that one more of these magnificent behemoths had been discovered entirely intact in the rock-hard permafrost of Siberia's Taimyr peninsula. It was discovered by a Siberian family while herding reindeer in 1997. When scientists arrived on the scene to dig the furry giant out of its ...

... on the surface very long and were buried very soon. So extensive an accumulation of remains of herbivorous animals of few species in one place can be explained only by a catastrophe which rapidly destroyed whole herds of them. .( .. . ) The Bolshoi Lyakhov Island, the southernmost of the Novosibirskiye Islands, is essentially a cemetery of mammoths. Mammoth tusks and sometimes whole corpses of mammoths and other mammals were buried in great numbers in the Quaternary sediments; they have been preserved by the permafrost of the soil. In the coastal slopes washed by the surf the tusks thaw out in summer and fall on to the beech; in the past they were annually gathered in by ...
