... lively discussion which continued to excite attention during the informal lunch break which followed. Before this break for lunch, Peter Warlow let it be known that the theme of his talk would be included and elaborated upon in his next book which was in course of preparation. Peter James , the second speaker, chose the title "Plato's Atlantis and Prehistoric Europe" for his talk. After reviewing the work of Plato in his CRITIAS and TIMAEUS which constitutes the main source of the "Atlantis myth", and subsequently the work of Ignatius Donnelly whose book, ATLANTIS, THE ANTEDILUVIAN WORLD is the basic text book on the subject, Peter James went on to present a convincing array of ...
212. Evidence of An Inversion Event? [Journals] [Aeon]
... . The ice age Earth was dominated by large animals. On the tundra steppe of Eurasia there was a proliferation of animal life, that included the woolly mammoth and the woolly rhinoceros, the cave lion (larger than today's lion), the cave hyena and the enormous cave bear, the giant deer with antlers spanning 12 feet, the prehistoric bison and musk ox, the yak, the reindeer and the saiga antelope. Some of these animals ranged into Beringia and Alaska. South of the glacier in North America, there were mastodonts (in forest areas) and Imperial or Columbian mammoths (on the steppes). There were also horses and camels, flat headed peccaries, ...
213. A Fire not Blown [Books]
... Crete. The skulls from the Cyclades are of varying types. In the Neolithic period and, in the Cyclades, in early Bronze age tombs, steatopygous statuettes are found. This may be due to influence from Asia Minor, where the Great Mother goddess was worshipped, but it may also indicate the influence of Africa. Hutchinson, in Prehistoric Crete, Penguin, 1963, gives fuller information on racial types. Evidence of attitudes, rituals and religious beliefs from other parts of the Mediterranean world suggests that it was not only in matters of race and physical type that Crete was a mixture. For example, Crete had many mountain top shrines, such as are found elsewhere. ...

215. Stonehenge: Restoration Work [Journals] [SIS Internet Digest]
... of stones which had fallen were re-erected, but the great majority of the restoration work involved the straightening and resetting of stones which had become unstable. Meticulous care was taken to return the stones to their exact original positions, and no new stones were brought in. Today's Stonehenge, although considerably ruined, is the monument that was erected by prehistoric man some 3,500 years ago, not an imaginative reconstruction. Had the restoration work not been carried out, it is likely that by now Stonehenge would consist of a pile of fallen and broken stones - an ignominious end for one of the world's greatest prehistoric monuments. The fact that the 20th century history of Stonehenge is not ...
216. Capture Flood Myths (Moons, Myths and Man) [Books]
... hundreds of miles away. How the transport of some of these monoliths was managed remains obscure. Surely a much simpler explanation is that the material was taken from quarries at the now submerged bases of these mountain-islands. The inhabitants of the Pacific Islands, some of which are still imperfectly known and hardly explored, have no traditions concerning these remarkable prehistoric stone structures. This is quite natural, for the work was not done by their forefathers, but by an extinct pre-lunar race, that was wiped out by the capture cataclysm or its consequences. Either the refuge-towers did not serve their purpose, or else the waters did not subside, as they had always done after former conjunctions, ...
217. The Creation of Woman [Books]
... deluge heroine, for some reason or other was not able to give birth to the child in the natural way; she may have died in labour and the precious offspring was evidently removed by means of the caesarean section. This last statement should not be regarded as extravagant. There is ample evidence that surgery has been practised even in remote prehistoric times. Skulls have been found showing that they had been successfully trepanned, and cases of well-set fractures of arm and leg bones are not rare. The caesarean section has been practised from early historical' times, and there is no reason to suppose that it was unknown in more remote ages. Only the saving of the mother's life ...
218. The McMaster University Symposium - June 1974 [Journals] [SIS Review]
... a celestial body was doing a few thousand years ago. Students of the historical sciences, however, naturally place more reliance on hard evidence surviving from the past epochs concerned, and several of the crucial problems discussed depend on such historical data. One of the problems - which was reviewed at a colloquium on the third day - concerns the prehistoric standing stone observatories' of Britain and Brittany, the astronomical significance of which has been analysed over many years by Professor A. Thom and others. Thom and his colleagues have identified numerous alignments which cluster clearly around various astronomical declinations. Because the stones are reasonably well dated to the late 3rd and 2nd millennia BC - several centuries before ...

220. The Ruins Of The East. Ch.12 The Ruins Of The East (Earth In Upheaval) [Velikovsky] [Velikovsky Earth in Upheaval]
... an early and undisclosed date, a flow of basaltic lava from the fissured ground-the Sinai massif is not a volcano -burned down forests, leaving a desert behind.3 In Palestine lava erupted, filling the Jezreel Valley. Early in this century a Phoenician vase was found imbedded in lava. Geologists have asserted that volcanic activity in Palestine ceased in prehistoric times. "The assertion of the geologists thus becomes very questionable," wrote an author at that time.4The vase found in lava proves volcanic activity there "in historical times." The verdict of the archaeologists is that the vase "dates from the fifteenth century before the present era," and thus the eruption must have ...
