... From: Moons, Myths and Man by H. S. Bellamy CD Rom Home Last | Contents | Next 11 Reports of a Sudden Wave of Hot Air The air, which had been drawn into tropical latitudes by the gravitational pull of the close satellite, also had to flow off again towards the poles when the satellite broke up, ebbing to and fro several times like the waters. Little imagination is needed to suppose that the air which had been piled up within the tropics was considerably warmer than that of the ice-fringe districts. This heat-wave' caused by the streaming off of the atmospheric girdle-tide is duly recorded by a number of peoples. In this case it is ...

... ways very similar to some points of Hinduism. They believed that the world was cyclical. That it was created, existed for a specific period of time, was destroyed, and then re-created and the process began again. This belief can be explained sociologically in that in the world societies rise, reign and die in very cyclical patterns and myths concerning old kingdoms may have developed into this belief. > 5) Debunks the existence of pre-Columbian maps which > give reasonably accurate plottings the currently > submerged Antarctica coastline ?? ?? ?

343. THE ROAD TO SATURN (EXCERPTS FROM AN AUTOBIOGRAPHICAL ESSAY) [Journals] [Aeon]
... the creation of the Sun dissolve this fictional gloom? And yet in all cases where the light of creation is spoken of, the Sun was said to have been created later. This posed an enigma that took me long to resolve. When I finally did, it was again through Velikovsky. VII It was during my investigation of the myths of creation that I finally came face to face with Saturn. Actually I had been bumping into him from the beginning, but it was not until now that I saw this planetary deity as something more than a murky figure lurking behind some of the most engaging mythological motifs I had yet encountered. From then on every avenue that I ...
344. Plato's Atlantis and Prehistoric Europe [Articles]
... won't necessarily be stressing the catastrophist side of the matter in the sense of trying to pin down the disappearance of Atlantis- if such a thing happened- to any particular catastrophe, Velikovskian or otherwise, which is something I'll leave open for discussion at the end. What I will try and do is to trace the origin of the Atlantis myth as transmitted to us by Plato, in an attempt to take us back at least one stage towards its ultimate source. I'll try and clear up a few misconceptions on the way by reviewing some of the theories currently popular, and try to establish whether the Atlantis story is really worth bothering about- that is, is it a ...

346. Aphrodite - The Moon or Venus? [Journals] [SIS Review]
... ' most important aspects was as the god of the planet he named, Ares to the Greeks, Mars to the Romans. Velikovsky has also made an excellent case for identifying the goddess Athena with the planet Venus, an original and extremely important discovery. In pointing out these things he has made an invaluable contribution to our understanding of the myths and religion of the Greeks, albeit a contribution still ignored by classical scholars. If he is right the task now in hand is to work out the precise mechanics of the Greek myth making process wherever possible. For instance, was Ares an abstract personification of war before the activity of Mars in the eighth century BC, and was ...
... From: Moons, Myths and Man by H. S. Bellamy CD Rom Home Last | Contents | Next 33 The End of the Mediasiatic Sea Another great geographical change was wrought by Luna in Central Asia. At a not so very remote age there must have existed a great landlocked sea which filled the immense depression now called Dzungaria, and parts of the Gobi Desert. The richly sculptured coast of this expanse of water was the home of a teeming population of many nations, that lived in abundance in an almost subtropical paradise with an equable climate (for we must remember the position of the North Pole at that time). At the advent of our present Moon ...
