... yet relates a catastrophe event. Such compositions do exist, however, and one will be presented at length here - a hitherto neglected text. AN HISTORICAL AUTHOR Enheduanna has been dubbed "the first woman in history", but most people will not even have heard of her. Who was she? She was the high priestess of the moon god Nanna (= Sin/Suen) in the southern Mesopotamian city of Ur. It is known that she was a daughter of Sargon, the founder of the dynasty of Akkad, and that she was alive in the reign of Naram-Sin.

... 200 kilometers seems to encircle the southern end of Africa. In the United States, the centers of the circles fall in a northwesterly trend in Arizona; northeasterly in the Appalachians. These circular structures may have been created about 4 billion years ago by intense meteorite bombardment similar to and perhaps identical with the bombardment that marked the surfaces of the moon and other inner planets.

664. Return to the Paelo-Saturnian Ssystem (Forum) [Journals] [Aeon]
... flare-up [40] occurred? The Hebrew date for the "let there be light" event as narrated in Holy Scripture is presently set at 5761. Did Saturn's flare-up coincide with the birth of Venus and/or Earth's capture by the Sun? I'm somewhat confused as to when the Saturnian system started orbiting the Sun (with the "moons" of Saturn trailing after their primary). Did the break-up occur immediately at that point, or did the paradisiacal epoch last a while into the Sun's reign of the system? How, exactly, did Jupiter take part in the break-up (what was its relationship to the Sun, etc.)? What did all that look ...

... had vanished. They perceived, therefore, that God had sent these clouds for Aaron's sake only, and hence, with Aaron's death, had caused them to vanish. These among Israel who had been born in the desert, having now, owing to the departure of the clouds of glory, for the first time beheld the sun and moon, wanted to fall down before them and adore them, for the clouds had always hidden the sun and the moon from them, and the sight of them made a most awful impression upon them. But God said to them: "Have I not commanded you in My Torah: Take ye therefore good heed unto yourselves.. ...

... occasion is supposed to have turned completely over, so that the sun rose in the west and set in the east. Dr. Velikovsky argues that between the fifteenth and eighth centuries B.C . the length of the year was 360 days and that it suddenly increased to 365 days in 687 B.C . The orbit of the moon and the length of the month were also changed. In short, Velikovsky's research among the ancient records of man .. .. records ranging from unequivocal statements in written documents, through remembrances expressed in myth and legend, to mute archaeological evidence in the form of obsolete calendars and sundials- and his examination of geological and paleontological reports ...

... please read it (or them) again. Here is a quick review: C & AH VI:2 , (July 1984), p. 109; review by Dwardu Cardona in C & AH VIII:1 , (January 1986), p. 85. There was a Mountain' at the North Pole that contained the Moon two thousand miles wide and four thousand miles high. The continents were created by the formation of this mountain millions of years ago. No uniformitarian theory provides for a force with a magnitude to do this. The mountain was sustained by the gravitational, not to mention electrostatic, pull of the planet Saturn stationed above the North Pole. ...

... . In Egypt the year was first measured by the Nile, which is low during the hot season, then rises in flood to usher in the cool season of growth and fertility, and then gradually falls again. When they had detected the connexion between the heavenly bodies and the seasons, and sub-divided the year with the aid of the moon and certain groups of stars, and ultimately discovered that the sun measured the year, they believed that the controlling force was in the sky. Then they saw in the sky not only the Nile. but also their mother cow, their house pillars, their cackling goose, and so on. They believed that each year was " ...
