... , when viewing the book as a historical source, we should recall it was written by a painstaking and methodical man, still under a sentence of death because of his health, but who only sought the truth. The book was of 211 pages of text and 16 pages of appendices, mainly mathematical, with 27 photographic plates and 5 maps. It was, as its subtitle made clear, "An Essay". It first surveyed the palaeontological and evolutionary records and rightly asked, if one represented the Earth's history by the length of a year, but of which geology and palaeontology occupied 364 days 23 hours and 59 minutes, and the observed facts [of uniformitarianism] ...
552. Velikovsky and Catastrophism: A Hidden Agenda? [Journals] [SIS Review]
... related matters made before 1920 are not valid as generalizations at all" [ibid, p. 1091]. This effectively destroys the Indo-European theory as a Germanic salvation from Hebrew. We recognise that the relative proportion of Indo-Germanic' to world languages has been slanted by German philology to make it appear more inclusive than it is, like the maps of the world prepared mainly by Germanic cartographers which made China, which is larger than the USA, appear in size more like a European country. Secondly, all theories about its origin and development are to be dismissed, a situation which the Third Edition of 1963 makes even murkier when it refers to an ancient Indo-European language which was ...
... . We find at Memphis, Saïs, Bubastis and Tanis, east and west walls which at once stamp those cities as differing in origin from Annu, Abydos and Thebes, where, as I have shown, the walls trend either north-west- south-east or north-east- south-west. For Memphis, Saïs and Tanis the evidence is afforded by the maps of Lepsius. For Bubastis it depends upon the statement of Naville, that the walls run "nearly from east to west," and with the looseness too often associated with such statements, it is not said whether this bearing is true or magnetic. The Two Great Pyramids at the Time of the Inundation Associated with these east and ...
554. Graham Hanock: Adjudication [Journals] [SIS Internet Digest]
... Ed Krupp had ridiculed the theory by suggesting that the images of Giza and Orion in Mr Bauval's book The Orion Mystery were not the same way up, and you had to turn either the image of Egypt or that of the sky upside down to make the two match. Mr Bauval said that Dr Krupp had used a modern convention in mapping stars by having down and up denoted by south and north, a convention unknown to ancient Egypt. Other astronomers had published work rebutting Dr Krupp's position but they had not been referred to. Mr Bauval said that he had answered all Dr Krupp's criticisms in his filmed interview for the programme, but none of this material had been used ...

558. A Test of Time: Volume I the Bible - From Myth to History by David M. Rohl [Journals] [SIS Review]
... be of value to other researchers in this field, in particular the results of Manfred Bietak's continuing excavations at Tell ed-Daba. Both facts and argument, whether one agrees them or not, are well organised and set out. The layout is helpful to the reader, with summaries in the form of forty two conclusions. The book contains numerous maps and charts, with attractive photographs (taken mainly by the author) and other illustrations, both in colour and black and white. It is certainly among the most attractively produced books that I have read for some time. For readers of this journal with an interest in the history, archaeology and chronology of the ancient Near East, ...

... and igneous flows that would have been nonexistent or molten during the events. Axial tilting would also be denoted by patterns of inertial change probably by now totally confused in the morphology and petrology of the Earth, except as we have pointed out in earlier sections of this book, where axial tilt can be detected on gross features of the global map. The most obvious form of exoterrestrial transaction is the meteoroid explosion, which is provable on its face, of course. That a great many of such intrusions are not yet discovered has also been shown. That the Earth should have fewer craters than the Moon only occurs by reason of their quick erasure here. As detecting techniques improve ...

... electricity, and chemicals for a million years, or a hundred million, or a billion? "Hitler's Festung Europa (Fortress Europe) has no ceiling," we used to say in 1944. Has any fossil anywhere an anti-electro-chemical fortress, a Festung Fossilia with a ceiling? If we had available to us a thorough paleontological survey and map of the Earth above its granites, we should be able to answer the question of the age of the surface since its last scourings. We do not have it. Discovered fossil assemblages number in the hundreds, although they are not nicely inventoried. They occur on every continent, in many countries, in high and low latitudes, ...
