... the other with a bronze handle and iron blade, and a necklace of gold and iron found at Alaja Oyük of pure Sargonic style "which may even go back to the Sargonic period of the Royal Tombs of Ur." Then there is the statement by Herzfeld and Christian that these blades were derived from terrestrial ores and were not of meteoric iron which indicates the so-called Sumerians were a first millennium society. Neither tin nor terrestrial iron was used in civilizations in Mesopotamia in the third millennium to fashion daggers. These daggers thrust deep into the heart of the established chronology and have dealt it a mortal wound. As Roux admits: "Thus more than half a century after its ...

... Fire's turnings: First sea, and of sea one half is earth, the other prester .. .( ?) is spread about as sea, and is measured to the same account as it was before becoming earth." Prester' may be connected with pur, fire, sterope, lightning flash, and aster, star or meteor. Turnings presumably imply transformations, but might also imply a changing course. There are two other fragments to consider with this one: Fragment 34: "The beginning and the end on a circle are common;" and "The way up and the way down are one and the same." It seems possible that Heraclitus is ...

... or named, the "Lions of Life," whose symbolism is hidden securely in the Zodiac. The Lion signified Strength, and its Tail, Power. The great brilliant star Regulus of this sign, one of the first "Crossing" stars, is exactly on the ecliptic, and was thought to be a radical point for the meteoric showers belonging to the month of August, that of Leo. The Messengers or Messiahs were called the Lions of the Holy Ghost (the Holy Spirit), the Great Mother. The Christian Messiah, Jesus, was called a Lion of the Tribe of Judah. His incarnation was prophetically symbolized as a "Winged Lion," and ...

596. Uniformitarian Or Catastrophist? Ice Age Theory [Journals] [Velikovskian]
... All such temperature changes would occur gradually over thousands of years. On the basis of Velikovsky's hypothesis, the amount of snow that fell during this period of darkness would not be in anyway related to gradual temperature change. Snow would have been derived from cold and warm water sources. Not only would the oceans boil in some regions, but meteors would have fallen into the oceans in cool regions, as well, throwing immense amounts of water and water vapor into the atmosphere. Hurricanes sweeping over the entire Earth would then have carried this water vapor in the atmosphere from vastly different oceanic temperature regimes to the polar regions to fall, under normal conditions, as snow. Present-day amounts ...

... to midlatitude westerlies or trade winds. Upon fragmentation, roughly 10,000 to 15,000 miles from the earth's core, and hence 6000 to 11,000 miles from earth's surface, the icy particles scattered into three trajectories. One trajectory flew toward the earth, like a shower of meteorites. Fragments of ice entered the atmosphere like meteors and with the heat of friction vaporized and precipitated to earth. It would not take very much ice, astronomically speaking, to create in this way a sudden rainfall equivalent to 100 feet of water per square foot of earth surface, which is about 200,000,000 square miles. This concept must be kept in alignment with ...
598. William H. Stiebing, Jr., and Immanuel Velikovsky [Journals] [Velikovskian]
... "the ability of many small insects and their larvae to endure great cold and heat in an atmosphere devoid of oxygen renders not entirely improbable the hypothesis that Venus (and also Jupiter, from which Venus sprang) may be postulated by vermin." However, if such vermin existed, they certainly would have been fried and atomized like small meteors when they entered the Earth's atmosphere. If, by a miracle, some Venusian vermin did survive to propagate on Earth, they should have left offspring that could be detected, because of their differences, from the products of terrestrial evolution. Velikovsky responded that the vermin infestation from Venus was only a possibility, yet his statements seem to ...
599. Indra: A Case Study in Comparative Mythology [Journals] [Aeon]
... " (114) Gonda, similarly, cites I:103:1 , which likewise places a part of Indra in heaven, the other part on earth. Here Gonda points out that, "both parts combine so as to form a ketu (which may mean ensign', but also an unusual phenomenon such as a comet or meteor'." (115) The unusual apparition associated with Indra's ketu, in our opinion, was the fiery comet-like debris which extended along the polar axis, thus uniting, as it were, heaven and earth. It is probable that Indra's peculiar relationship to the Sun/Surya in certain Vedic hymns can be traced to the appearance ...
