... many times subjected to such mutations. The world-record speaks for itself. Just prior to the last ice epoch vast numbers of semitropic animals luxuriated in pastures under the Arctic circle. Other ice epochs had preceded it and other tropic times intervened. We find nothing competent to bring on this alternation of tropic and glacial conditions without canopy aid. The mammoth and his compeers are found all over the far north-world locked down in cold storage, where they were suddenly entombed. Some of these animals have been found with fodder undigested in their stomachs. Dr. Hertz in 1902 found one in eastern Siberia with a tuft of grass in its mouth unmasticated. This animal had been crushed to earth ...
302. Planet in Crisis: the Earth's Last 12,000 Years [Journals] [SIS Review]
... - a force severe enough to rupture its previous internal mechanism without actually destroying it. Down the centuries precisely such a source has been repeatedly advocated to account for traditionally catastrophic events like Noah's Deluge, the loss of a primaeval Golden Age, the advent and also the demise of the Ice Age, the sudden refrigeration of the Siberian/Alaskan mammoth fauna and even the foundering of legendary realms such as Atlantis, Lyonesse, etc. [126-135]. Variously identified as a great comet, an asteroid, an itinerant star, a massive meteor swarm, or a former moon - dated, equally variously, from as long ago as 25,000BC to as recently as just a ...

304. Genesis and The Origin of Species. C&C Review 2002:1 [Journals] [SIS Review]
... slow ones starve; slow, weak gnus are easily caught but strong and wary ones escape. This keeps a viable balance in numbers between hunters and hunted; it does not breed super-lions or super-gnus. A wide range of mightier hunters and bigger game is found in the fossil record - e.g . smylodons (sabre-tooth tigers) and mammoths. If Darwinists believe that super-breeds will evolve in millions more years', they will first have to explain why mammalian evolution seems to have moved in the opposite direction, from the big to the smaller. At the other end of the scale, disease-bearing bacteria persisted in balance with human life, albeit with occasional upsurges during epidemics. ...

306. Monitor [Journals] [SIS Review]
... in southern Australia and Vietnam - about the same time as a maximum in acid fallout was recorded in the Greenland ice. German sub-fossil oaks from this time show a peak of C14, which would occur as a result of increased radiation due to destruction of the ozone layer. Perhaps, not coincidentally, the C14 date of the youngest discovered mammoth in Siberia was also the same age. Oceanic impacts would give rise to flood waves as high as the ocean was deep at the point of impact, which could flood continents far into their interiors. Torrential rainfall would also occur. Once the initial wintry conditions caused by all the dust in the atmosphere had passed, the amount of ...
307. Fingerprints of the Gods: do ancient relicts point to an advanced civilisation 15,000 years ago? [Journals] [SIS Review]
... theory and, while I mention plate tectonics, I should also mention that that theory was ridiculed for many years by geologists but has come to be accepted. I think that the theory of earth crust displacement needs to be looked at much more closely also. It certainly answers many of the problems we have - for example those flash frozen mammoths in Siberia - and it also answers the issue of how we lose a whole civilisation. The theory suggests that the continent of Antarctica, prior to the last displacement of the crust, was situated 30 , about 2,000 miles, further north than today and that large parts of the Antarctic peninsula were in the Temperate zone, ...
308. Chapter 4 Scientific ? Radiocarbon Dating [Journals] [Velikovskian]
... region was not directly near a civilization that needed its wood. In Egypt and the surrounding Sahara, wherever buried forests were discovered as the sand dunes moved to expose them, these sources of lumber would have been harvested, shipped, and utilized for construction, utensils, and fuel. As this author pointed out in The Extinction of the Mammoth, trees thrived in the Sahara and somehow clung to life in a few less arid areas. But once desert conditions developed, nearly all the rest of the trees there had to die and whole regions, as in the Tarim Basin, would thereafter be buried and uncovered by sand dune migration. Dunes develop best where they encounter obstruction ...
309. Cataclysms of the Earth [Books]
... transcend the mere recording of the past and present, it must offer theories that are applicable to the future. Years of investigation and research, coupled with resolution and courage to follow wherever truth might lead, have established the certainty of a future world cataclysm during which most of the earth's population will be destroyed in the same manner as the mammoths of prehistoric times were destroyed. Such an event has occurred each time that one or two polar ice caps grew to maturity; a recurrent event in global history it is clearly written in the rocks of a very old earth. The earth is approximately 4.5 billion years old. Human beings have been living on it for at ...
310. Minds in Chaos [Books] [de Grazia books]
... . Earth in Upheaval appeared in November 1955. Velikovsky examined the century-old principle of Lyellian uniformity by comparing its tenets with anomalous finds from all quarters of the globe: frozen muck in Alaska that consists almost entirely of myriads of torn and broken animals and trees; whole islands in the Arctic Sea whose soil is packed full of unfossilized bones of mammoths, rhinoceroses, and horses; unglaciated polar lands and glaciated tropical countries; coral and coal deposits near the poles; bones of animals from tundra, prairie, and tropical rainforest intimately associated in jumbled heaps and interred in common graves; the startling youth of the world's great mountain chains; shifted poles; reversed magnetic polarities; sudden changes ...
