... Velikovskian catastrophe". Unfortunately, usage of the word, like that of "aggravate", "chronic" et al., is a little lax, and a far from promising start was made in the programme by the reference to Velikovsky as "the man who has ascribed historical events such as the opening of the Red Sea for Moses to collisions between the earth and major meteorites or asteroids". Nevertheless, this would appear to indicate an acceptance of the story of the Sea of Passage as an historical event rather than pure legend. But, of course, Velikovsky went wrong: - "It's also worth remarking that asteroid impact is intended not simply as an explanation ...
412. The Night of the Gods Vol II [Books]
... xx and xxt, where the cold-blooded slaughter of the men, women, and children of Jabesh-Gilead, and the enslavement of 400 maidens, was perpetrated because "they came not up to Mizpeh to the Lord:" To return to Stukeley. He suggests (p , ii), or rather he doubts not, that the altar which Moses built with twelve pillars under Mount Sinai (Exod. xxiv, 4) was such a circular work as our stone circles, and (p . 25) that the gable-end of a house was so-called from gabal, which we find in Elagabalus. The Semitic root gabal means lofty, as I have before pointed out (p . ...
413. When the Gods Came Down by Alan F. Alford (Reviewed) [Journals] [SIS Review]
... ' (p . 192) but it does contain some interesting analysis and detail along the way about ancient references to meteorites and suggestions that these might have brought life to Earth (although sadly little detail is given about how this might have occurred). Genesis, Exodus, Satan, Leviathan and Eden are analysed and discussed. He sees Moses, Abraham, Noah and Adam all representing exploding and falling celestial bodies' [287]. There is also some interesting analysis of how some features of the New Testament stories about Jesus Christ seem to be based on earlier stories from the Old Testament. This is all interesting and the book is nicely presented - but Alford's problem is ...

415. Proceedings of the Third Seminar of Catastrophism and Ancient History (Review) [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... University of Toronto, submitted a paper on David as a Hapiru leader. Her presentation reviewed the evidence concerning the complicated and seemingly contradictory meanings for the term "habiru" as well as its theorized connections with the Hebrews of the Old Testament. In addition, papers on Hammurapi and his times, Abraham and the Amorite tradition, and on Moses were also presented. The conference was sponsored by Catastrophism and Ancient History with Marvin Luckerman as Executive Editor. Mr. Luckerman believes that now, more than ever, professionals in every field need to work more closely with various independent study groups. Sharing our interests and concerns in an atmosphere of mutual respect and support, in his judgment ...
416. Rejoinder to Velikovsky [Journals] [Pensee]
... , some of which are necessary to sustain the interpretations he gives to texts from Egypt, Palestine and Greece." Rather than claiming that his chronology depends upon his cosmology, I, in fact, stated that his cosmology (which was based on his interpretation of many ancient texts) depends upon his chronology. If, for example, Moses cannot be synchronized with the beginning of the Hyksos Period (and he cannot), then it is unwarranted for Velikovsky to use passages from both the Ipuwer and the Exodus account to reconstruct the same cosmic cataclysm which supposedly occurred in the fifteenth century B.C . Velikovsky should have read my article more carefully before drafting a reply. ...

... expert in the study of light and radiation? Were they the bright'people? It may be useful to review some of the material involving Ariadne. There are references to the strong goddess'. Egyptian necht [man holding a rod], strength, is a reversal of the Greek techne, skill, art. Ariadne's skill with snakes recalls Moses and Aaron, Jannes and Jambres, Exodus VII:10f. The name Ariadne could mean hand of fire'. Names of the goddess were: Eleuthia, Kerasia, Piptuna, Ardoro, Pade. Greek doron is a gift; Ardoro may be she who gives fire' or gift of fire'. Pade may be light from ...
419. Underworld: Flooded Kingdoms of the Ice Age by Graham Hancock (Book review) [Journals] [SIS Review]
... with a prolonged darkness, calculated at around 3100BC. The same event is preserved in Irish myth in the story of Balor and in Britain in the story of the giant Albion, suitably Christianised as St Alban. Hancock is quite strained at this point but he is on stronger ground when he compares a Japanese mythic theme with the ark of Moses cast on the waters of the Nile, a theme that also pops up in pagan Anglo-Saxon myth and in the story of Sargon of Akkad. I have assumed a heavenly river is implied that could be seen in the sky from all parts of the world. However, a seagoing people could have disseminated a more literal and earthbound interpretation ...
420. The Age of Velikovsky [Books]
... were later found to be important clinical diagnostic symptoms of this problem. Velikovsky edited Scripta Academica Universitatis and published some articles in Freud's Imago. In the summer of 1939, Dr. Velikovsky came to the United States to complete research for a book. The intended book was to be about Freud's dreams and three characters of interest to Freud: Moses, Oedipus and Akhnaton. The book was nearly completed when other research led to discoveries that would change the course of his life. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to thank the following people for their interest and providing helpful discussions, correspondence and references. Dr. John Lynde Anderson, Dr. Donald Anthony, Dr. Jerry Arnet, Dr ...
