... connection with Sea Peoples perhaps responsible for carrying the earlier outbreak from the Russian Steppes. Ice age mysteries source: Houston Chronicle 29.2 .88, section 7, p. 3 Researchers at Michigan State University believe there is a link between the abundant salt deposits in the south of the state and the numerous bones of giant mastodon and mammoth discovered there. Almost every bog lake in southern Michigan contains mastodon remains, so plentiful are they. The animals would have lived from about 12,000 to 10,000 years ago, when the area would have had an Arctic climate following the melting of the regions glaciers. It is now suggested that the beasts were drawn to ...
132. Part IV: Conclusions [Ragnarok] [Books]
... to represent living forms in pictures or carvings, with a considerable degree of taste and skill. And these works are found in the most ancient eaves, "the archaic eaves," associated with the bones of the animals that ceased to exist in Europe at the time of the Drift deposits. Nay, more, a picture of a mammoth has been found engraved upon a piece of mammoth-tusk. The engraving represents a most curious work of art. The man who carved this must have seen the creature it represented; and, as the mammoth did not survive the Drift, that man must have lived before or during the Drift. And he was no savage. Says Sir ...

... terrain, and today are found only in that niche. If they could live in and on loess, they would do so presently. Their placement throughout the loess means they came to be in it by an unusual event. A flood, of course, would create just such an accumulation of diverse types of snails as it did with mammoths and other mammals. These accumulations of snail species that inhabit totally different habitats but mixed all throughout the loess, I suggest, implies that a great slurry of loess and water flowing over the land carried these snails from all their varied habitats and deposited them in one great deposit. The question is: how old can these deposits be ...
134. Bookshelf [Journals] [SIS Review]
... situated at a variety of positions with respect to the surface features. The reader's appetite is whetted by a general introduction to the Earth and its various motions which leads on to a brief outline of relevant mysteries of the past such as the magnetic field reversals, the concept of ice ages and, of course, the Riddle of the Frozen Mammoths, to which a fact-filled chapter is devoted. White adds a further chapter on the possible existence of lost civilisations, particularly with respect to ancient maps which in some cases seem to show the Antarctic with ice-free coastlines and then moves on to a section headed "Prediction - What modern researchers have to say". The section comprises seven ...

... the fossil remains from consecutive formations invariably being much more closely related to each other, than are the fossils from formations distant from each other in time." However, even at that time there was some evidence against gradualism: for example, three genera of elephants, one including the African elephant, one the Indian elephant and one the mammoth, had been shown to have appeared more or less simultaneously from the ancestral genus Primelephas, and the two surviving species had changed very little from the time of their first appearance to the present day (a time interval now thought to be in excess of four million years). In vain the palaeozoologist Thomas Henry Huxley advised Darwin not ...

... subscribing to our journal. We now have institutions from Germany, the Soviet Union, and Spain receiving our material. In this issue our first article is by Professor William Shea on the placement of Jacob in the overall chronology of the Ancient World. The second article is by a Soviet scholar, Vladimir Belousov, who writes on the frozen mammoths found in his country. We hope to get more material later on the Tunguska Event. The third article is by Donald Patten and Samuel Windsor on mountain building. It promises to stir up some stimulating reaction. The fourth article is by Dwardu Cardona, who contends with some of the theories of Martin Sieff. It is the opinion ...

... length and sometimes as much as 140 feet in depth, are now being sluiced out along stream valleys tributary to the Tanana in the Fairbanks District. In order to reach gold-bearing gravel beds an over-burden of frozen silt or muck' is removed with hydraulic giants. This muck' contains enormous numbers of frozen bones of extinct animals such as the mammoth, mastodon, super-bison and horse."2 These animals perished in rather recent times; present estimates place their extinction at the end of the Ice Age or in early post-glacial times. The soil of Alaska covered their bodies together with those of animals of species still surviving. Under what conditions did this great slaughter take place, in ...
139. The Norfolk Forest-bed. Ch.5 Tidal Wave (Earth In Upheaval) [Velikovsky] [Velikovsky Earth in Upheaval]
... : the roots do not end in small fibres, but are broken off, in most cases one to three feet from the trunk. Bones of sixty species of mammals, besides birds, frogs, and snakes, were found in the forest-bed of Norfolk. Among the mammals were the sabre-toothed tiger, huge bear (Ursus horribilis), mammoth, straight-tusked elephant, hippopotamus, rhinoceros, bison, and modem horse (Equus caballus). Two exclusively northern species, glutton and musk-ox were found, among animals from temperate and tropical latitudes. Of the thirty species of large land animals of the forest-bed, only six still exist in any part of the world-all the others are extinct ...

... were on a greater scale than is generally thought. But the finders of the conglomerates of bones were perplexed also by the animal remains; the bones belonged to animals of the tundras, or a cold-wet climate; of steppes and prairies, or dry climate; and of jungles, or warm-moist climate, "in a strange mixture." Mammoths and buffaloes and ostriches and arctic animals left their teeth, horns, claws, and bones in one great melange, and though we have met very similar situations in various places in other parts of the world, the geologists of China regarded their find as enigmatic. "No conclusive evidence can be derived from this faunal assemblage as regards ...
