... adjusted anew. The astronomical values of the year and the day could not be the same before and after an upheaval in which, as the quoted Papyrus Anastasi IV says, the months were reversed and "the hours disordered." The length of the year during the Middle Kingdom is not known from any contemporaneous document. Because in the Pyramid texts dating from the Old Kingdom there is mention of "five days," it was erroneously concluded that in that period a year Of 365 days was already known.(14) But no inscription of the Old or Middle Kingdom has been found in which mention is made of a year Of 365 days or even 360 days. ...
232. Possible Ways Forward [Journals] [SIS Review]
... mythology. My second point is that I feel we should be more eclectic. We are keen on catastrophes and very interested in chronology but there are other areas or topics that we don't really have much to say about. I feel we need to incorporate other ideas into our own scenario of the Past. For example, consider the Giza Pyramids. Long before Graham Hancock there has been interest in the Pyramids. There are lots of books and theories about them - but what do we have to say about them? Do we have any special insight or view of them? - not as far as I am aware. Here is another. Zecharia Sitchin has written about a ...
233. The Tutankhamun Deception (Book Review). C&C Review 2002:1 [Journals] [SIS Review]
... the conventional chronology; the Jesus/Tutankhamun identification begs the question as to why the attributes and belief systems of one man-god should have been erased from memory only to be transferred to another, centuries later - in conventional terms, a gap of over 13 centuries! The writer also believes that Imhotep had not only designed and built the Step Pyramid at Saqqara for King Zoser, but also the pyramids on the Giza plateau for the pharaohs Cheops (Khufu), Chephren and Mycerenus' - which, by the conventional chronology would give the architect a career stretching over at least 120 years [13]. Paul Standring Notes and References 1. The writer suggests the original entrance was ...
234. The Age of Moses [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... this "astronomically" based Egyptian standard. For an excellent debunking of the astronomical foundation of the conventional chronology, you are referred to the Supplement to Immanuel Velikovsky's Peoples of the Sea. In a previous essay, Joseph and Imhotep, I made a case for equating the biblical Joseph with the legendary Egyptian vizier Imhotep, architect of Pharaoh Djoser's pyramid and brilliant physician. Here we will take up the subject of Moses, the Exodus, and the world situation at the time of the transition between the Early Bronze and Middle Bronze ages. I begin with the premises that the sojourn of Jacob and his family began in Egypt in the mid-twentieth century B.C ., that the ...

... system prior to those described in Worlds in Collision . Section 2 is devoted to ancient astronomy, the major article being Prof. Rose's "Babylonian Observations of Venus", which so clearly demonstrates how a Velikovskian view of the evidence resolves anomalies which have puzzled scholars for decades. Other items of particular interest are Velikovsky's "The Orientation of the Pyramids" and "On Decoding Hawkins' Stonehenge Decoded'". With sections 3, 4 and 5, more technical astronomical aspects make an appearance, ranging from the stability of the solar system and the research on possible orbits by Rose and Ransom to Juergens' pioneering work on electrical forces, "Reconciling Celestial Mechanics and Velikovskian Catastrophism" ...

... the white man. Or more to the point, before the arrival of the official' recorders of Aztec mythology. Many people seem to think that they did have the chance, and the various theories of contact' involve Vikings, Phoenicians, Egyptians and (inevitably) Atlanteans. It has been argued for example, that the presence of pyramids on both sides of the Atlantic implies Egyptian contact. Likewise, the fact that the symbol of the cross was found to be already worshipped by the Indians when the first Spanish missionaries set foot in America in the 15th & 16th centuries, has been taken to imply some forgotten' earlier contact with Christian travellers. However, as stated ...

... signifies Venus? Does this convergence of imagery mean that artistic license prevailed, or does it perhaps commemorate some hitherto unrecognized relationship between Venus and the ancient sun-god? (40) The Sun and Venus in Ancient Egypt That the worship of the sun and various celestial bodies belongs to the oldest Egyptian religion is commonly acknowledged. Countless passages in the Pyramid Texts, for example, allude to the King's identification with the ancient sun-god and his intimate relationship to the morning star. (41) In Egypt the star appears amongst the earliest pictographs, being found already upon predynastic pottery. (42) Although both 8-pointed and 5-pointed stars are attested very early on, the 5-pointed star eventually came ...

Iceman downdate Horizon BBC1 8.3 .1993 Although the copper nature of the axe belonging to the frozen iceman' found recently in an alpine glacier enabled historians to place him in the Neolithic, in agreement with the radiocarbon dates, special flanges in its design point to the copper age, which was a few hundred years later. HISTORY Pyramid building Horizon BBC2 22.2 .93 Mark Lehner joined forces with a stonemason in a project to build a scale model of a pyramid using the methods of mud-brick ramps and levers thought to have been used by the ancient Egyptians. They succeeded but the difficulties make one wonder about the construction of real pyramids 27 times larger. Lehner ...

... approach, commenting that stratigraphy is not everything', yet he concluded that astronomical evidence was consistent with the Hammurabi-Darius I equation [92]. In Britain, Emmet Sweeney developed his own ideas on the basis of Heinsohn's theories [93] and put some of them together in two short books, The Genesis of Israel and Egypt and The Pyramid Age, published in 1997 and 1999 (fig. 1; fig. 2). Sweeney did not believe that the pyramids of the Old Kingdom in Egypt could have survived intact through Velikovsky's'?Venus' catastrophe of 1450 BC and, indeed, apart from those of the 3rd Dynasty, he thought they must have been constructed ...
