... the foot of the Sierra Nevada on the east side. Now between Salt Lake and Reno lie numerous ranges of mountains; however, none of these presents a solid wall or barrier between the cities: it is possible to fly between without having to climb to cross any of the ranges. Northeast of Reno is a large freshwater lake, Pyramid Lake, and southeast of Reno another, Walker Lake. South of Salt Lake, near Provo, Utah, is Utah Lake - another freshwater lake. Since this area, at valley level, is almost all at the same elevation, I like to think that Bonneville Lake once filled the entire basin as one lake, rather than ...
392. Can Imhotep be Joseph? (Letter) [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... Imhotep. Jesse E. Lasken, Rockville, MD Notes 28 Porter and Moss, Topographical Bibliography (Oxford: Griffith Institute, 1952; reissue 1975),VII: 335-336. 29 See e.g . J. B.

393. The Thunderbolt in Myth and Symbol [Journals] [SIS Internet Digest]
... , I had followed the connections between an undulating, upward-spiraling, serpentine form and two powerful mythical motifs- the "chain of arrows" and the "ladder of heaven." Gathered around these motifs in texts and art are numerous other themes, including: backbone of the sky, tower of heaven, flared skirt of the mother goddess, pyramid or steps of ascent, bound serpent or dragon, severed limbs of the serpent or dragon, and more. In the course of assimilating this material, it became clear to me that a simple evolutionary sequence explained the full range of symbolic connections, if one allows for the three-dimensional perspective of an observer on earth. At the heart ...

... 353-4. (12) Genesis 49:9 . See also Numbers 2:3 and 2:18 (note 6) (C ) Brendan O'Gheoghan, Esher, 1978. Note: See early SISR (Newsletter 2, September 1975) for interesting and related ideas from David Parker (S . Croydon) in his Joseph and the Pyramids', in which Joseph is equated with Imhotep and the great famine is a product of catastrophe. Martin Sieff in his reply agrees with Mr. Parker. - Ed. XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX X The following article was written in 1976 and it seems appropriate to include it in Workshop II at this time as a complement to the previous article by ...
395. Ancient Mysteries by Peter James & Nick Thorpe [Journals] [SIS Review]
... , which drew attention to archaeological evidence for a worldwide catastrophe in 2300 BC, is included amongst the references. Throughout, the authors show an excellent grasp of their material and they place the various controversies within their proper historical and scientific context. Inevitably, however, there are some errors. For example, James and Thorpe attribute the unfinished pyramid near Abu Ruwash to Nebka, and that at Zawyat al Aryan to Djedefra, rather than vice versa. Then, perhaps having the same instructor for converting metric measurements into imperial ones as NASA Mars-probe scientists, they quote diameters of 12.5-25 miles for the nucleus of Halley's comet and the projectile which produced the Chicxulub crater, both ...
396. On Number as Artifact (Part 3: Conclusion) [Journals] [Horus]
... musical patterns elevate certain numbers to a prominence pure number theory would not accord them."[12] Even before this engineers, mathematicians, and astronomers were finding an unexpected source of fascination in the numbers and patterns inherent in the calendar circles of North America, England, and the European mainland, as well as in the temples and pyramids of Central America, Egypt, and the Orient. The numbers and patterns in the two cases are surprisingly the same. Man may not have created numbers. Certainly many cultures believed them to be God-given. Ideas about number have changed. But the numbers themselves have stayed the same, and in many cases so have the problems to ...
397. Focus [Journals] [SIS Review]
... "There is no conceivable reason why this should be so, from normal archaeological theory, unless there was some general impetus for compelling people to move around and to innovate, to set up observatories, at about this time." The picture was then broadened to include the Old Kingdom of Egypt, represented by reeds from mud-bricks of a pyramid at the end of the Sixth Dynasty (shortly before the fall of the Old Kingdom), the end of the Indus Civilisation of north-west India (specimens from the final level of occupation of Mohenjo-Daro) and the rise of the first theocratic societies in Peru (slide not available for the presentation). Again, the dates tallied with ...
