622. Three Views of Heinsohn's Chronology [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... had become very popular in 8th/7th century Assyria. (Egypt, too, experienced an archaizing renaissance' during the 8th and 7th centuries, when Old Kingdom' art styles became very popular. Also, just as the Babylonians and Assyrians began to erect ziggurats during the 8th and 7th centuries, the Egyptians and Ethiopians began to erect pyramids during the same period). Also, the triangular shaped bow held by Naram-Sin was still used in Assyria up until the time of Esarhaddon. Nothing of what has been presented above invalidates Heinsohn's initial Mesopotamian hypothesis. The present writer holds more strongly than ever to his policy of reducing third millennium dates into the first millennium. Also his ...

... presumption that Rhampsinitus was Ramesses III which reads: "Not that the resemblance of these two names counts for much. The chronology of Herodotus goes seriously awry after Rhampsinitus, after whom he places the famous Cheops of the 4th Dynasty." Many readers will be aware that it was approximately during the period of Rhampsinitus that Heinsohn considers the Great Pyramid was built. While Robinson may be correct in suggesting that Herodotus went over the top as regards the number of years in a generation, it seems unlikely that he could have made an error of some two millennia concerning Cheops. If only Herodotus had a book in the Bible! 3. David Rohl's talk at Nottingham, so ably ...

625. Velikovsky's Sources Volume Six [Books]
... stated in the notes to Part 2, p.159, the involvement of all five planets suggests a general quasi-astrological conception of the basis for the events described. One can hardly take a disruption of all five planets literally (Part 2, p.118), any more than one can take literally the planetary disruption' of the Pyramid Texts (Part 3, p.216- 7). I should say that the phrase "the five planets were agitated by unusual movements" does not mean that all five bodies suddenly left their regular orbits in the way that a modern astronomer would understand it. Rather, I should say that the phrase is stock astrological terminology ...
626. On the Survival of Velikovsky's Thesis in 'Ages in Chaos' [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... fell victims to a carnival of destruction in which many of them were annihilated. The temples were not merely pillaged and violated, but their finest works of art were subjected to systematic and determined vandalism, which shattered the splendid granite and diorite statues of the kings into bits, or hurled them into the well in the monumental gate of the pyramid causeway. Thus the foes of the old regime [sic] wreaked vengeance upon those who had represented and upheld it. The nation was totally disorganized. When one compares this description with that given by Josephus as to what happened at the Hyksos invasion, it is difficult to avoid connecting the two accounts as referring to one and the ...

... time earlier. But if one followed the technological imperative of Sweeney (q .v . Heinsohn) one would have to make the Carthaginians follow the Romans, chronologically. 3. Artwork of the Ethiopian period. In an earlier incarnation of his article, Emmet had claimed that the artwork of the Ethiopian period resembled that of the Old Kingdom pyramid builders. My editorial feedback on the article included a request for a specific reference. That reference is singularly missing from the later version of his article (printed in Workshop 1991:1 - see his note 7) but is provided in his Forum questions, where Breasted is cited. I certainly do claim to have found no such ...

... trance states a shaman feels he is temporarily visiting another world with a mixture of geometric and iconograhic forms. The first representational images are therefore seen not as realistic depictions so much as a fixing of images seen in another world. Architectural mystery Houston Chronicle 8.9 .90 Gerald Moorhead, of the American Institute of Architects, considering Zoser's pyramid, the first major construction of stone in Egypt and dated at 2650 BC, says, What is so amazing architecturally is that apparently out of nowhere the Egyptians built on a large scale with large, finely cut and dressed stone.

629. Velikovsky's Sources Volume Two [Books]
... Bob Forrest. Manchester September 1981. Section 7- continued. Herodotus According to V the final act of his cosmic drama took place on March 23rd 687 BC. Two hundred years later, or thereabouts, the Greek historian Herodotus wrote his famous "Histories", and though he touched on many matters ranging from the building of the Great Pyramid to the pronouncements of the Oracle at Delphi, he failed to mention the earth shaking events of only two centuries before. The most promising hint of support for V's scenario in Herodotus is that in ii.142, which V cites on WIC p.112 thus: " In the second book of his history, Herodotus relates his ...
630. Thoth Vol V, No 4: Mar 15, 2001 [Journals] [Thoth]
... , 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 ...
