... Spheres" was bound to fail abysmally to express the true lawfulness: what Plato called the Song of Lachesis. Men have learned to respect it without thinking. Even today, as one celebrates Christmas, one invokes the unique gift of that cyclic time — the gift of not being historical; its opening into the timeless, the virtue of mapping the whole of itself into a vital present, laden with ancestral voices, oracles, and rites from the past. With what sincerity is left to them, men invoke the remission of ancient sins, the rebirth of the Soul even as was done many millennia ago. People beg from that Time the renewed strength to carryon against a ...
412. After 200 Years It's Time to Get Serious About Dynasty XVIII and Tuthmose III [Journals] [Aeon]
... , Four, Five and Six suggests that Egypt had, in reality, made no impression there, if, indeed, there was an impression needing to be made. Tribute is recorded as gathered from no other region than Retenu and its neighbourhood, all of which pivots on the events at Megiddo. Take a look at any good regional map. Why wouldn't Tuthmose have taken the time to consolidate south of the Megiddo line where territorial gain was as enormous as it was relevant? Do scholars imagine that possession of the Africa/Asia land bridge was not seen to be as commercially and militarily important in those days as we regard it now? If any nation on earth was ...
413. Evidence for the Extreme Youth of Venus [Journals] [SIS Review]
... an indication of the crustal thickness. Venus has smaller, more closely spaced features than any previously seen' [24], which argues for a thin crust. But there is another possibility - that the so-called fracture lines are not fractures at all but channels, gouged out of the surface by a mechanism to be described later. Gravity mapping is to be undertaken by Magellan after its orbit is lowered by atmospheric braking, and then circularised. Such mapping should provide more clues to the structure of Venus. Already it is believed that the prominent Maxwell Montes region should subside under self gravity in a relatively short time. 10. Channels and valleys Venus appears to be laced with ...
414. Sagan's fifth problem: Chemistry & biology of the terrestrial planets (Carl Sagan & Immanuel Velikovsky) [Books]
... the surface called the Valles Marineris. In short, these features of Mars are of a recent catastrophic origin because they would have been filled in if they were ancient or if they opened gradually. In fact, Sagan, in his book, The Cosmic Connection, (NY 1973), p. 127, describes the Tarsis bulge as mapped by Mariner 9 as giving the appearance of a huge recent catastrophe. He states, "The resulting geological maps reveal an enormous array of linear ridges and grooves that surround the Tarsis Plateau- as if a third or a quarter of the whole surface of Mars were cracked in some colossal recent event that lifted Tarsis. The most spectacular of ...
415. The Oceans [Journals] [Velikovskian]
... the North Atlantic, as well. According to Stephen H. Schneider and Lynne E. Mesirow, during the Ice age, the average temperature of the North Atlantic between southern Newfoundland and southern England was at 0o Celsius, so the ocean water north of this area had to be permanently overlaid by ice.72 According to the CLIMAP Project map, the ice cover over the world during the Ice Age, the entire Arctic Ocean was covered permanently by ice. In addition, the depth of the ice, well out to sea in the region surrounding the North Atlantic into the Arctic Ocean, was in places 1,000 feet deep.73 Thus, it seems clear that ...
416. Chapter 13 Scythian Princes in the Royal Tombs of Ur [Journals] [Velikovskian]
... be maintained when the Scythians came to Ur. And it may be that the Assyrians planted the Scythians there to destroy their dangerous allies. During the past century the development caused by the oil industry in that region has ameliorated the conditions there, bringing pipelines of water to oil pumping stations and cities in Iraq. Nevertheless, Zarins has presented maps of Iraq made by its Ministry of Agriculture for 1952-1953. A census was taken of horse, mule and donkey populations, restricted to those who were sedentary, therefore excluding nomadic peoples. What the census shows for Ur and the immediate vicinity is that there were about 200 donkeys near Ur, but no mules or horses there or in ...
417. On Method [Books] [de Grazia books]
... Neolithic period. But his finds were rejected and ridiculed. The hoaxer of Piltdown had cast some eoliths among the relics; suddenly these were received as paleoliths and respected as part of the Piltdown assembly. Morris wrote letters accusing Dawson, the discoverer and a likely culprit, of fraud. To no avail. In 1926 Edmonds published a geological map of the area of Pilt-down, which placed the gravels of the discovery site in the upper Pleistocene of fifty thousand years ago, one-tenth of the age assigned to the hoax material. This was not noticed until 1937 when Oakley, doing fluorine research on the Piltdown bones, discovered flagrant discrepancies between the supposed parts of the same being. ...
418. Assyria and Hanigalbat: Texte und Studien zur Orientalistik</i> (Review) [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... published and revised Ph.D . thesis Harrak brings together a vast amount of Middle Assyrian material and recent research. He takes up the history of the Middle Assyrian monarchs and their relationships with the kings of the land of Hanigalbat and the Hittites. His synthesis displays a tremendous degree of maturity and historical depth. In addition, he has mapped out the historical issues and sources in a single highly readable volume. His labors will save many scholars an enormous amount of time in research and documentation. And as it is readily available it will serve as a standard reference work for many years to come. Harrak begins his work by considering the merits of creating studies that are at ...
419. Late Paleozoic Tornadoes and Synsedimentary Brecciation of Chert Nodules [Journals] [Catastrophist Geology]
... From: Catastrophist Geology Year 3 No. 2 (Dec 1978) Home | Issue Contents Late Paleozoic Tornadoes and Synsedimentary Brecciation of Chert Nodules Albert V.Carozzi and Murry S.Gerber Department of Geology, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign Urbana, USA. Fig. 1. Location map of investigated locality (a ). Abstract A well-exposed section of crinoidal calcarenites of the Lower Burlington near Hannibal, Missouri, USA, displays an unusual occurrence of chert nodules penecontemporaneously brecciated by a short-lived and localized high-energy event interpreted as the touch-down of a tornado system. This example of tempestite demonstrates the syngenetic generation of completely indurated and fragile chert nodules within an unconsolidated carbonate sediment and stresses the ...
420. A Word about the Planetary Debate [Journals] [Velikovskian]
... the Planetary Debate Irving Wolfe One of the major segments of catastrophist research involves our attempt to reconstruct what may have happened to the Solar System in the past four or five millennia. This domain, however, is riddled with confusion and misunderstanding, not only about the topic but also about how to deal with it. What follows is a map of the debate and a few guidelines I think we should follow, presented in a series of short points leading to my conclusion about what we ought to be doing. Some theorists do believe that these points are self-evident, yet I will strive to make them clear. I am personally acquainted with most of the planetary theorists, admire ...
