302. Mythology and Repression [Journals] [SIS Review]
... Investigators with a Jungian orientation, whether they are psychoanalysts or mythologists, tend to see myths and dreams as isomorphic with one another: for them, myths are traditional collective dreams, as dreams are ephemeral private myths. In these terms, it would be unrealistic to regard myths as straightforward depictions of group experiences, even if those experiences are prehistoric and the group involved is preliterate. Instead, one should expect myths to exhibit systematic distortion of the actual events that produced them. In clinical terms, mythology is traumatized history and must be interpreted accordingly by psychohistorians. Consequently, I must also differ to some degree with James when he writes, on pp. 5-6, ". ...

... remains unexplained."3 Several years ago another authority, A. Posnansky, wrote in similar vein: "At the present time, the plateau of the Andes is inhospitable and almost sterile. With the present climate, it would not have been suitable in any period as the asylum for great human masses" of the "most important prehistoric centre of the world."4 "Endless agricultural terraces" of the people who lived in this region in pre-Inca days can still be recognized. "Today this region is at a very great height above sea level. In remote periods it was lower."5 The terraces rise to a height of 15 000 feet, twenty-five ...
304. Focus [Journals] [SIS Review]
... postulated by Freud and Jung but in disagreement with much of the current biological thinking. "If Velikovsky's theory is correct, then it is possible to suggest that every generation lives in a state of trauma induced by the conflict between subconscious memories of past catastrophic events and the refusal of the conscious mind to recognise that these events actually occurred in prehistoric and historic times. Dr Velikovsky believes that the trauma is responsible for mankind's aggressive hostility, a concept of importance to every individual frightened by the prospect of thermo-nuclear war or of the instability which seems to be increasing in society. It is also responsible for the inability and at times the outright refusal of science to recognise the overwhelming evidence ...
305. Global Catastrophes: New Evidence from Astronomy, Biology and Archaeology [Journals] [SIS Review]
... as The Cosmic Serpent in 1982 and outlined in an address to the Society in the same year (see "Focus", SISR V:3 , pp. 73-4), has proved to be something of a bombshell to both the uniformitarian and catastrophist schools of thought. Dr Clube's talk, "Comets - the cause of historic and prehistoric catastrophes", began with a re-examination of some of the key factors involved in the Copernican revolution. Though Galileo's discovery of the moons of Jupiter was clearly a major factor, Clube focussed on one which he felt had been unduly neglected, though it was of equal importance and just as traumatic for the orthodoxy of the time: the ...

307. Notes and Queries [Journals] [SIS Review]
... A. These Egyptian stone vessels are indeed remarkable, They were made with a bow-drill and the crushed-up stone they were working (like using diamond to cut diamond) and were polished in the same way by a young boy for two or more years. They had plenty of labour - and time was not important. The following extract from Prehistoric Greece & Cyprus by Hans Gunter Buchholz and Vassos Karageorhis (Phaidon Press, London, 1973), gives some more information. The Egyptians were considered past masters and superb teachers in the art of making durable vessels of hard stone [Lucas, Ancient Egyptian Materials and Industries, 1959, 480 ff.]. But increasing research on ...
308. Earth in Upheaval by Immanuel Velikovsky [Velikovsky] [Velikovsky Earth in Upheaval]
... reconstruction of ancient history. By its realignment of great segments of history, it enlarged the controversy as scholars from other fields joined the debate. In recent years a wealth of new finds in the fields of archaeology, geology, and astronomy have given dramatic support to the revolutionary Velikovsky theory. EARTH IN UPHEAVAL presents documentation of global catastrophes in prehistorical and in historical times — the clear, unequivocal testimony of bones and stones. Significantly, this evidence from the natural sciences indicates that these great disturbances which rocked our globe were caused by forces outside the earth itself. In EARTH IN UPHEAVAL the author brings together a multitude of remarkable facts — such as palms found in northern Greenland, ...

310. Tornado. Ch.6 Dreams And Hallucinations (Mankind in Amnesia) [Velikovsky]
... with Freud's deeper insight, not communicated to him when he was on the analytical couch, would have precluded this slighting remark. He had the advantage over Freud in that he had read the pioneer work of the apostate to whom he was writing. Thus he knew that the traumatic experience of the human race was not in repeated parricide in prehistoric caves, but in the horror of helpless man, who since the beginning of time has more than once been threatened with destruction by hostile elements-elements from which he burrowed in the ground "as a mole" or stampeded to sometimes fatal shelter in trembling mountain caves. Since the man from Topeka was away from the city during the tornado ...
