... . As a whole, the late Pleistocene extinctions were insignificant compared to earlier mass extinctions, particularly those at the end of the Permian and Cretaceous periods (see SIS Review VIIA, pp.9-20), but large land animals were profoundly affected. North America lost 75% of its genera of animals heavier than 44kg, including all its mammoths, mastodons, straight-tusked gomphotheres, horses, tapirs, camels and ground sloths, and genera of cheetah, sabretooth cats, pig-like peccaries, bears, giant rodents, musk oxen, moose and deer. In all, 33 genera disappeared between 12,000 and 10,000 years ago, and possibly a much shorter period than that ...

... of burial, frozen more or less intact and have remained so ever since. Their frozen remains still retain berries, cones, nuts, bark and leaves as in life, some with their original colours. Similarly, long dead molluscs are encountered with their internal soft-parts and shell colourations unaltered, while the nearly entire cadavers of musk-oxen, hairy mammoths, woolly rhinoceroses and other bygone animals from those latitudes are justly famous. Not so well known are the occurrences of the refrigerated complete carcasses of soft whales, seals, various fishes, zebras and birds - environmentally incompatible biota. No natural habitat and no animal or plant species escaped. At best many species were simply decimated. At ...

... a Brazilian bed, or nearer to the sea than that same bed, which contained hundreds of modern human skeletons mixed among numerous marine shells and nodules of carbonaceous matter; these were discovered about 1827; the bed was referred to as of limestone and of tufa (volcanic lava). Piles of torn and mashed mammalian remains (mastodons, mammoths, bison, etc.) along with remains of many types of contemporary flora and other fauna, are discoverable in Alaska and Siberia. They are found in muck pits. They portray instant disaster by tidal and atmospheric forces. Large deposits of bones are found in Baja California (Mexico) cast up by the same kind of forces ...

... that scavenging has probably had a much more pervasive effect on human evolution than has hitherto been appreciated. ' The early simple stone tools were all that were required to deal with scavenged meat and prior to 2.5 Myrs ago unprocessed stones were probably used to smash bones and obtain marrow, leaving no archaeological record. .. . of mammoths too Scientific American September 1992, pp. 130-131 Was man the cause of the extinction of the mammoths or not? (See last issue - Mammoth extinctions) Gary Haynes was not content to simply theorize or run computer programmes but has gathered together the evidence in a book. Analysis of the age structure of the remains of elephant kills ...

... rocks; it did not striate them it not roll the fragments into boulders and pebbles it did so quietly on the face of the land that, as Geikie tells us, the pre-glacial deposits throughout Siberia, with mammalian remains, are still found " lying undisturbed on the surface"; and he even thinks that the great mammals, the mammoth and the woolly rhinoceros, " may have survived in Northern Asia down to a comparatively recent date," ages after they were crushed out of existence by the Drift of Europe and America. Mr Geikie seeks to account for this extraordinary state of things by supposing that the climate of Siberia was during the Glacial age, too dry to ...

76. Velikovsky on the Formation of Coal [Journals] [Pensee]
... Deposits of "muck" occur above gold-bearing gravel beds in Alaska, in the valleys of Rivers Tanana, Yukon, Koyukuk and Kuskokwim. "Muck" is a frozen mass of animals and trees, the animals dismembered, the trees uprooted and splintered. Enormous quantities (millions) of trees and animals are present, the animals including the mammoth, mastodon, superbison and horse. Fossil tusks of mammoths from the Ivory Islands of the Arctic Coasts of Siberia have provided half the world's supplies of ivory since 1582. In 1797 the body of a frozen mammoth was discovered in N. E. Siberia with flesh, skin, and hair complete (Digby). Since then many ...

77. Focus [Journals] [SIS Review]
... years the Ice Ages seem to fade out altogether. All recent studies within the Milankovitch framework show people struggling with very small changes to the various parameters, trying to exaggerate the effect. In Warlow's opinion, the Milankovitch theory simply does not work. The most celebrated evidence against the uniformitarian concept of the Ice Ages is the discovery of frozen mammoths in Siberia. Fred Hoyle co-authored a paper in 1979 which was very scathing about the Milankovitch theory, and in which the observation was made that if a reindeer falls down a crevasse in Greenland - in the coldest conditions on Earth - and stays there, it will start to putrify. To freeze the mammoths, a quite noticeably catastrophic ...

... higher latitudes. During that vast eon reaching over most of Tertiary time we have the fullest evidence of a great variety of climate and yet one all-prevailing testimony pointing to Edenic tendencies. The Tertiary was a world of abounding life, and the evening of that time was particularly characterized by the enormous size and vast numbers of mammalian families. The mammoth and his giant compeers whose remains are so abundant in the very coldest parts of the Earth assert in terms that demand full assent that the close of their career was brought about by a sudden and universal climatic change. They tell a most emphatic history of the world's wreck and chaos planted on the ruins of tropical life. Taking a ...

... the ice cores Mewhinney feigns, and acts as if they were never presented by me, and therefore that the varve contradiction to the ice cores does not exist. If this was not enough, about a year prior to his presenting his critique via electronic media and the mail service, I had presented in my book The Extinction of the Mammoth direct evidence that these many temperature oscillations were also not found in the Devils Hole cores taken from a cave filled with ground water in Nevada. According to Walter S. Broecker whom I cited, this archive of climate "is more firm than any other available isotopic age in this [time] range" (Walter S. Broecker ...

... bed rock of this area of the country. On an orthodox basis the Faversham deposits must have been derived from surface breakdown of a chalk bed exposed during the last glaciation. The first orthodox problem of this, and similar deposits, is that they also contain many remains of "Ice Age" mammals. Bones and teeth of rhinoceros, mammoth, bison, deer and horse are found so frequently as to merit no comment. Such animals would not be living in the tundra conditions at the edge of the ice, therefore their remains must have originated from the previous "Interglacial" period when temperate conditions prevailed. Mammoth and bison leg bones obtained from the quarry are not fossilised ...
