... From: In the Beginning: God by H. S. Bellamy CD Home | Contents In the Beginning: God XII The Great Flood- General Remarks The most fascinating of all myth complexes of all peoples is doubtlessly that dealing with the Great Flood. Also, of all cosmogonic myths the deluge reports are by far the most numerous. More than a thousand Flood myths are known. Many peoples possess more than one report, and there seems to be no tribe that does not remember a great water catastrophe in its distant past. Most peoples, in fact, consider the Deluge as the earliest major event in their history that they remember. At first sight it seems ...

... From: Moons, Myths and Man by H. S. Bellamy CD Rom Home Last | Contents | Next 26 Capture Flood Myths Capture Flood myths are of necessity rather rare. While the powers of the dying Tertiary satellite, whose cataclysm caused the Great Flood, were slowly waning and the girdle-tide was flowing off more or less gradually in its early stages, the powers of the Moon asserted themselves suddenly and, within an extremely short time, pulled all the waters they could control into the tropical districts. The breakdown was a matter of many weeks; the capture was accomplished in a very few hours. The Great Flood found many inhabitants of the northern and southern life-zones ...

... From: Moons, Myths and Man by H. S. Bellamy CD Rom Home Last | Contents | Next 12 Myths of the Great Flood There are more than five hundred deluge myths, told by about two hundred and fifty different peoples or tribe's. All of them are remarkably similar; many of them have, on the other hand, individual traits. Their similarity has been taken as an indication that they are derived from the same original source; while their dissimilar passages are regarded as fanciful private additions to fanciful tales. But the mythological deductions from Hoerbiger's Cosmological Theory reveal the deluge myths in a different light. The deluge myths have not a common source, but ...

... From: Moons, Myths and Man by H. S. Bellamy CD Rom Home Last | Contents | Next 13 Deluge Warnings The period immediately before the Great Flood must have been eventful and ominous. The impending catastrophe cast its shadow before. With the complete disintegration of the satellite and the waning of its powers, the comparative stability of the distorted lithosphere had come to an end, and the earthquake shocks, increasing in number, duration, and strength, told everybody that something was going to happen. The state of the atmosphere, too, must have announced a great change, for endless cloudbursts or hailstorms descended from the dark, low, tempestuous clouds. The ...

... Chapter XIV. The Circumpolar Constellations The Myth of Horus The God of Darkness- Set THERE was to all early peoples all the difference in the world, of course, between day and night, while we, with our firm knowledge, closely associate them. There was no artificial illumination such as we have, and the dark night did not so much typify rest as death; so that the coming of the glorious morning of tropical or sub-tropical climates seemed to be a re-awakening to all the joys and delights and activities of life, thus the difference between night and day was to the ancient Egyptians almost the difference between death and life. We can imagine that darkness thus ...

... vols, London 1896. All V's quotes come from vol.1 . He also refers to "Japanese Mythology" by Masaharu Anesaki (" Mythology of All Races", vol.8 ; 1923 & 1964). On WIC p.79, in the section "The Hurricane", V writes: "In the Japanese cosmogonical myth, the sun goddess hid herself for a long time in a heavenly cave in fear of the storm god. The source of light disappeared, the whole world became dark, ' and the storm god caused monstrous destruction. Gods made terrible noise so that the sun should reappear, and from their tumult the earth quaked. In Japan ...

... From: Aeon III:1 (Nov 1992) Home | Issue Contents Towards a Science of Mythology: Velikovsky's Contribution Ev Cochrane When all is said and done it may well turn out that Velikovsky's most enduring claim to fame will be his singular contribution to comparative mythology; specifically, the thesis that many ancient myths commemorate spectacular cataclysms associated with the various planets. This is truly an original thesis, with little if any precedent in the writings of previous scholars. (1 ) As is the case with any truly seminal work, Worlds in Collision raises as many questions as it answers. Indeed, questions inspired by Velikovsky's work have since launched hundreds of studies, more than ...

... From: Moons, Myths and Man by H. S. Bellamy CD Rom Home Last | Contents | Next 21 The Rise and Fall of Man The foregoing myths may be very interesting and amusing, and they certainly contain a surprising amount of truth and good observation; but they do not answer the question: Where does man come from? Nor indeed can this chapter offer any solution to this problem; it can only make it more difficult by introducing into it a peculiar element: the influence of the cataclysms. This influence is twofold: biologically, urging man generally upwards; culturally, throwing him down repeatedly from the heights he has reached, but making him inventive ...

... heavens encountered by the earliest star worshippers. He assumes that the most distinctive bodies venerated in primitive times were the sun and moon, followed by the five visible planets and various constellations- all appearing as they do today, but for such ever-so-slight changes as the precession of the equinoxes. This long-standing belief not only confines present discussion of ancient myth and religion; it is the fixed doctrine of modern astronomy and geology: every prevailing theory of the solar system and of earth's past rests upon an underlying doctrine of cosmic uniformity- the belief that the clocklike regularity of heavenly motions can be projected backward indefinitely. But the evidence assembled in the following pages indicates that within human memory extraordinary ...
