... , expressive and in many cases extremist and violent responses (which are often symptomatic for apocalyptic movements) are triggered by collective anger and tension following such catastrophes. Throughout history, outbreaks of end-time panic have been based on ancient texts reporting about past or predicting future natural disasters on a worldwide scale. Whether these traditions reflect actual global catastrophes in prehistoric times or whether local/regional disasters were perceived as the end of one's world, is perhaps less relevant in this context than the fact that these ancient traditions have always been used to predict future "world" disasters. It appears even more interesting to me that a rather insignificant cosmic occurrance, said to have happened over the skies ...

374. "Uniformitarianism in Linguistics" by Craig Christy [Journals] [Kronos]
... transition, during the first millennium A.D ., from Latin, which signaled grammatical relationships chiefly by word endings, to the Romance languages, which do so chiefly by word order. This change is clearly correlated with, if not necessarily caused by, the disruptions attendant on the collapse of the Roman Empire in the west. In prehistoric times, a plausible example of linguistic saltation is the shift of language from a predominantly manual-visual channel to a predominantly vocal-auditory channel- in short, from gesture to speech - hypothesized (most recently) by Gordon Hewes.(1 ) This change may have been correlated with the terminal Pleistocene emergence, among our ancestors, of a farming ...

On page 120 Stiebing says there is no evidence for a prehistoric flood covering most of Mesopotamia. This statement, however, needs to be modified in view of JCS, 33 (1981), pp. 221-22. On page 121 Stiebing cites Storck 1986 (pp. 81-84). I would like to take this opportunity to correct two mistakes in my article cited by Stiebing: First, the ...
379. Saturn's Cosmos [Books]
... these pictures become the universal signs and symbols of antiquity. In the global lexicon of symbols the three most common images are the enclosed sun , the sun-cross , and the enclosed sun-cross . It appears that every ancient race revered these signs as images of the preeminent cosmic power. In Mesopotamia and Egypt the signs occur in the earliest period. Prehistoric pottery and rock carvings from Crete, China, Scandinavia, Africa, Russia, Polynesia, and the Americas suggest that numerous ancient rites centered on these simple forms- which became the most venerated images in the first hieroglyphic alphabets. But what did these signs signify to the ancients? With scarcely a dissenting voice, scholars routinely tag them ...
380. The Crescent [Books]
... in other words, originated in the cleft "Mountain of the Moon" . To this image answers the Egyptian three-peaked column . Of the three-peaked mount much more could be said, but at the cost of distracting from the more basic theme- the two-fold summit. It is my contention that the myths of the split peak originated in the prehistoric perception of a vast crescent seeming to constitute the summit of a cosmic column . Within the cup of the crescent rested the sun . Moreover the crescent was itself simply the illuminated half of a circular band . And if we include the four rivers of life we arrive at the form as the complete image of the Saturnian configuration. Have ...
