... natural disasters. It is beyond doubt that the Bronze Age cultures of Europe and the Near East were repeatedly destroyed by natural disasters. Schaeffer made clear that all major destruction layers he had analysed and which were detected throughout a territory of 5000 kilometres in diameter were not caused by the action of man'. Even a traditional scholar such as Moses Finley accepted the unambiguous archaeological evidence documented by Schaeffer: There were periodic catastrophes, hence the division into five clearly marked stages' [38]. In many ways, it would be ridiculous for catastrophists to ignore Schaeffer's evidence and to fall behind this stage of enlightenment. In fact, I am not aware of any Middle or Late ...
462. Pandemonium [Books] [de Grazia books]
... of the Lord "was like the sound of many waters." Ancient records and legends are rich mines of electrical allusions from which not only the state of electrical phenomena can be assessed but also the electrical technology of early cultures can be surmised; this field, ignored hitherto, is being researched by J. Ziegler. The Books of Moses carry testimony of great celestial noise that cannot be rationalized as ordinary thunder. And Noah, it is said in Jewish legend, was spoken to by a voice from the sky amidst a great commotion. This followed the failing of things upon the earth and was followed by the Deluge. The story of Job, later on, reads ...
463. The Foundations Of Egyptian Chronology. Supplement: Astronomy And Chronology Ch.1 (Peoples of the Sea) [Velikovsky]
... in the very same order that is a legacy of Julius Africanus who wrote in the third Christian century."[1 ] Africanus, one of the Fathers of the Church, preserved the legacy of Manetho of the third pre-Christian century. Manetho was an Egyptian writer, historian, polemicist, and anti-Semite, inventor of a baseless identification of Moses with Typhon, the evil spirit, and the Israelites with the Hyksos; also, contradicting himself, he identified Moses with the rebellious priest Osarsiph, of much later times, who called on the lepers of Jerusalem to help him in his war with his own country. In composing his history of Egypt and putting together a register of ...
464. Problems of Early Anatolian History Part I [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... Velikovsky claims that the Mitannians were actually the early Medes, since his chronological revisions bring the two peoples together in time and also because Matiene or Mantiane was the name of a lake and a province of Media during the Classical period.14 Hewsen attempts to connect the names of the kings of the Mitannians with those of the Medes given by Moses of Khoren and also claims, as do the majority of scholars, that Daiukku of the Assyrian annals of 715 B.C . is none other than Deioces of Greek sources- the founder of the Median Empire.15 B.B . Piotrovskii, in his book- Archaeologia Mundi, Urartu- gives an account about Daiukku. ...
465. F. X. Kugler -- Almost a Catastrophist [Journals] [SIS Review]
... Deucalion; Eusebius reports fires "under Phaėthon in Ethiopia" as being contemporary with this. More definite fixes on the date are given by Clements of Alexandria (13) as 330/340 years before the founding of Rome (i .e . 1663 BC), and by Cyril of Alexandria (15) as the 62nd year of Moses. Having amassed such a redoubtable store of information, Kugler makes another statement destined to be singled out by Stecchini, following it with an argument which we shall quote in its entirety: "Even if we have no intention of ascribing certain chronological value to these dates, or of accepting the old chronological tables based on them (cf ...
466. Quantavolutions [Books] [de Grazia books]
... sublimation of memories of general disaster even in religion, all of which are rooted in proto-historic disaster, not excluding the Judaeo-Christian-Islamic faiths. The greatest secret of religion today is the ostensible fact, too obvious for continuous attention, that religion is originally founded upon the terrifying behaviors of its founding gods. Jesus and Mahomet originate in the Books of Moses, in the frightful times of Exodus when Yahweh became God of the Jews. The history of religion as the history of catastrophes is also to be written. Once more we return to the quantavolutionary evidence in the here and now. If science, politics, and religion are using the relatively peaceful natural world of today to cover up ...
467. Clockwork [Books] [de Grazia books]
... V. and if the genius of that reconstruction is extraordinary, it is the effect of hereditary genius, a "fall-out" of genius from a single elemental key idea, as Juergens has written. I say this while reminding myself that the Exodus disaster was the key, but the motive came in the desire to reverse the order of Moses and Akhnaton: to recapture Moses and monotheism for Israel. Not that V. cared for monotheism in itself. But since the world regarded it as an invention of paramount importance, he was ready to fight for it. Not until 22 December 1981, do we find Deg at the denouement of his doubts; writing to Derek Shelley-Pearce ...

... had claimed that comets had devastated the Earth, and mathematical exercises on the putative effects of comets in passages and collisions with Earth are conventionally acceptable. Not so planets, that are believed to be fully and nicely bound to their present orbits. The sequence of thoughts occurred to V: first, the Egyptian, accepted chronology is wrong and Moses preceded Akhnaton; next, at the time of Exodus, there was heavy natural turbulence; third, the turbulence was incited from the skies, and took numerous forms well recounted in legend and sacred scriptures; finally, evidence came in rapidly from all parts of the world to support the idea that the planet Venus was involved as prime ...
470. The Location of Punt/Ophir Part I [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... possibly in David's (1032-952 B.C .) . Jews had intercourse with the natives of Madagascar even in pre-Solomonic days. In Solomon's time colonies of Idumean Jews from the Red Sea peopled the Comoro Islands. The people of the Grand Comoro preserve many Israelitic rites and customs. They cherish the memory of Adam, Abraham, Lot, Moses and Gideon, but have no knowledge of the prophets after David, which seems to show that the Jewish immigrants left their home at a very early date. . . . The great intercourse of the Jews with east Africa was interrupted because the ships of Jehoshaphat were broken at Ezion-Geber- on the Red Sea. . . .[ ...
