... Basel), p. 131; Cp. Worlds in Collision, "Tao"). "The notion of a connection between astral bodies and human destinies is part of a universal concept that the cosmos contains nothing fundamentally dead or inimical . . . . For the Sumerians and Akkadians, the sky was, in effect, a great map on which their destiny was inscribed. Men called the constellations the writing of heaven' or the writing of the firmament'. . . . How far [this] tradition was based on experience, on mythical thought, or on pure superstition is a complex question today left hovering in mid-air, though it demands elucidation just as do ...

... a number of languages, including French, German, Italian, Greek and Portuguese. However, Berlitz was far better known for a number of alternative' best-selling books, on subjects including the Bermuda Triangle, the Roswell incident and the Philadelphia Experiment'. The Bermuda Triangle, published in 1974, was the book which put Berlitz on the map' (pardon the pun). Berlitz, who was born in New York City in 1913, also spent 26 years of his life in the US Army, half of that on active duty, serving as an intelligence officer. He served in World War II, the Korean War and Vietnam, retiring as a lieutenant colonel. ...
483. Maya Cosmos: A Saturnian Interpretation [Journals] [Aeon]
... so little information left, archaeologists, epigraphers, and linguists were spurred to go over each and every scrap of writing that remained available in an effort to piece together the Maya story. No Old World culture has had the detailed multi-disciplined scrutiny lavished upon it that is now being expended on the Maya. Mesoamerica showing major Maya sites.

484. The Libyans in Egypt: Resolving the Third Intermediate Period [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... at Jerusalem, Tirhaka, King of Ethiopia, and an (unnamed) pharaoh both escaped from his camp. With my 750-720 B.C . dates for Ramses III, and 710 for the destruction of the Assyrian army at Jerusalem, [38] I have identified this pharaoh as Ramses IV, an identification strongly supported by the star maps of his tomb. Michael Reade associates these with the Sennacherib catastrophe event when the sundial of Hezekiah regressed 10 degrees. [39] Ramses IV died shortly afterward. The later Twentieth Dynasty rulers, the later Ramessides, were feeble and ineffectual. More and more, it was the Ethiopian Twenty-Fifth Dynasty, equipped with iron military technology, ...
485. Thutmose III: A Different Perspective [Journals] [Aeon]
... Mareshah which is described as "a town in the Shepalah, covering the road up the Wadi Zeita to Hebron." [53] It was in this area that Zerah of Ethiopia was defeated by Asa. The place is now known as Bet Guvrin or Jibrin, and a village to the west is now Khirbet Mar'ash." A map of this area shows Bet Guvrin on the access road from the coastal plain of Philistia to Jerusalem. It is a logical progression from Gaza, the usual fortress or garrison town for Egyptian control of the area, to the prize of Jerusalem. There thus appears to be no case for arguing against Mareshah being Bet Guvrin. Once this ...

... the expense of human embeddedness in nature. [* Cf. Ramses II and His Time (N .Y . 1978). pp. 4344. - The Ed.] LINGUISTIC EVIDENCE OF PROTOHISTORIC EVENTS In the task of reconstructing the protohistoric past, linguistic evidence is intrinsically less weighty than stratigraphic evidence, not only because words can constitute maps without territories but also because their significance depends almost wholly on interpretation. Because of this hermeneutic relativity, verbal evidence can rarely if ever be reliably said to "speak for itself". In many cases, the same lexical evidence that is cited in favor of one reconstruction can equally well be cited, with appropriate reinterpretation, in favor ...
... and at the very spot which describes the flat rock where he called up the Shades we find not only where the roaring waters meet from several directions, but to its left is Erbusaig or Erebus, to its right (where the hero turned) the Alsh or Styx, and beyond the regions of the Damned. A glance at the map of the Celtic Hades will also show that Loch Alsh is more correctly a gulf which joins Kyle Akin on the north and Kyle Rhea on its south. Where these waters meet is a turbulent piece of water with racing tides and clashing cross-currents. Now I draw attention to another aspect of this Hades region, for Hades though it was ...
