... . The food contents of the stomachs of the mammoths also give us a clue as to the exact time of day the earth careened. A full stomach indicates the sudden death of a healthy animal, and that death occurred after, and not before, the feeding period of the day. The food found in the mouths and stomachs of prehistoric monsters indicates that they had been grazing among abundant warm climate grasses when death suddenly overtook them. The suggestion of a sudden careening of the globe is further substantiated by the condition of the carcasses. Several mammoths have been found in an upright position on their haunches. Some have been found with broken bones. The upright position supports the ...
172. Day Star [Journals] [Aeon]
... reconstruct mankind's preliterate history, scholars have but a mere handful of reliable tools available. Archaeological digs, such as Schliemann's spectacular finds at Troy or the recent discovery of Hamoukar in northern Syria, can provide valuable evidence with regard to the material level and intellectual life of a particular culture. Ancient art can also supply important information as to how prehistoric man made his living and viewed his place in the cosmos. The beautiful paintings discovered at Altamira in the last century- and more recently at Lascaux (1940), Grotte Cosquer (1991) and Grotte Chauvet (1994)- reveal Paleolithic man to be an avid hunter of large game animals, a finding consistent with the archaeo-logical ...

175. History [Books]
... are the oral traditions of primitive peoples and the written annals and chronicles of ancient civilizations. It is therefore generally understood that the word history' only refers to the study of man's past as revealed by his written records. The beginning' of history is often called proto-history. The study of man's history before he left written records is termed prehistory. The history of events which occurred on our planet before the appearance of man is called historical geology. 2. The prehistory of man can only be known by the mute evidence of his activity, left behind on the sites where he lived. This evidence takes the form of tools, artifacts, monuments, skeletal remains, etc ...
176. Comets, Meteorites and Earth History [Journals] [SIS Review]
... For Professor Wickramasinghe, the development of life on Earth is the result of microscopic bacteria evolving in space and "seeding" this planet, having been transported by cometary tails; for Rene Gallant, macroscopic impacts by asteroids and meteorites have not only altered evolutionary patterns but have been responsible for major geological, climatological and calendrical changes right down through prehistoric into early historical times. Gallant, a pioneer of modern catastrophism, and Wickramasinghe, a contemporary scourge of orthodoxy in biology and cosmology, attracted a full house to the Library Association for the Society's major meeting of the year, despite appalling weather. Both talks were very well received and enthusiastically discussed and it is hoped that edited versions ...

FIFTH ANNUAL SEMINAR AUGUST 22-25, 1986 at HALIBURTON, ONTARIO: notes by DAVID ROTH FRIDAY EVENING: ROGER WESTCOTT: Catastrophes: Prehistoric, Proto-Historic and Historic. Although this was the title of his lecture, Professor Westcott, whose subject is Linguistics, gave an entertaining talk about words, their contrasts and their associations. His mainspring was the story of Tantalus, the Trickster and I think what he was suggesting was that, at some point along a line of research, one could be "tricked" into coming to ...
178. The Sahara. Ch.7 Deserts And Oceans (Earth In Upheaval) [Velikovsky] [Velikovsky Earth in Upheaval]
... the sinking of the Spanish-Atlas chain that opened the Strait of Gibraltar and created a junction between the Mediterranean Sea and the Ocean; the collapse that cut off the Canary Islands from the African continent; the opening of the Strait of Bab-el-Mandeb, separating Arabia from Ethiopia."5Berthelot, however, ascribed these great tectonic changes to the time of prehistoric man and Abbé Breuil actually showed that prehistoric man already occupied these regions as the eolithic or very crudely chipped stone artifacts indicate. But at a later date people of advanced culture, contemporary with pharaonic Egypt, lived in communities, pastured their cattle, and left their tools and drawings there. Then in an upheaval, of which many ...

Cardona Predicting the Past: An Exploration of Myth, Science and Prehistory by Roger Williams Wescott Is the present condition of the world the result of aeons of peaceful evolution? Or has Earth been shaped by wrenching catastrophes some of which were recent and widespread enough to have deeply traumatised all of humankind? Did early human societies develop gradually in uneventful natural surroundings, moving incrementally from savagery to civilisation? Or did horrific cataclysms forcibly conclude a long period of primitive ...
... Stones in the World The Problems of the Slanting Strandline The Selection of the Site The End of a World The Calendar of Kalasasaya Postscript 7 The Problems of the Slanting Strandline Perhaps the greatest and most puzzling discovery which was made in connexion with Tiahuanaco was that at the time when the buildings of the so-called Second Period' were erected, the prehistoric metropolis was not a city sprawling upon a gentle rise in a wide valley but one situated on the shore in a sheltered bight of a sort of peninsula. For Tiahuanaco was a harbour-city, the remains of whose quay walls are still distinctly discernible, while a number of dock-like harbour basins and a canal can also be traced. This ...
