363. Planet Gods. Ch.3 In Fear And Trembling (Mankind in Amnesia) [Velikovsky]
... the temple of Zeus, of which a few large columns are still standing in Athens; the temples to Jupiter in Baalbek, and to Amon, who was Jupiter, in Karnak, and to various deities of the past, all of them astral gods. Engineering, too, developed as a result of the catastrophes, because the great pyramids in Egypt (the greatest engineering feat of the past) were- in my understanding- royal shelters against possible repetition of catastrophic events. Organised warfare has its inspiration in the same terror. As the ancient Assyrian kings went to war, they compared the destructiveness of their acts to the devastations caused by the astral deities at the time ...

... of development in isolation, and many local variations can be traced in the various island groups. Something similar happened when a new cult in a single country absorbed the complexes of another cult or other cults as did the sun cult in ancient Egypt. As Professor Breasted has shown,2 the solar cult absorbed an earlier stellar cult before the Pyramid Texts were inscribed, but traces of the process remained. The solar faith became the state theology3 but the influence of "folk religion" remained and ultimately became predominant.4 In like manner the early agriculturists who invented new myths, and introduced new modes of thought in connexion with their new modes of life, and invented new symbols ...
365. The Lost History of Ireland: an enquiry into the pre-Christian History of the Gaels' by Emmet J. Sweeney [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... athletic matches, the Aonach Tailteann corresponding to the Greek Olympiads held, like the Greek ones, in August and apparently founded at a similar time, shortly before the arrival of the Gaels. The building of the great megaliths and stone circles is dated by Sweeney to the 8th and 7th centuries BC (to which centuries he also dates the Pyramids) and he refers to Irish tradition that the circles are beltanies' - dedicated to the Fire of Beal' (help!). Beal corresponds to Baal, Belinos and the Greek Apollo. Not only is there Irish tradition to support this identification, but the 6th century BC Greek writer Hecataeus is also quoted in confirmation. The ...

368. Velikovsky & Saturnists & the Gods [Journals] [SIS Internet Digest]
... the sun- a universal tradition- this does not reflect the fact that they were primitive in their thinking; rather, they simply saw a different sky, one in which dragons (a comet-like planet) appeared to swallow the sun. After all, some of the very peoples who spoke of great dragons flying about the skies were also constructing towering pyramids requiring great ingenuity and engineering skill (the ancient Egyptians, for example). Tim writes: "remember that myth-makers did not think or feel about the sky as we do. We fly around in the sky, and above it; the notion of people doing that was not high on their list of things to believe." ...

In the distance the wall of the Ptolemaic temple Deir el-Medineh: view looking south showing the terraced forecourts of the workmen's tombs and with a reconstructed pyramid visible in the centre of the photograph There is just one thing I would like to observe about that last paper from an Egyptological point of view. I think the first half of it was the continuation of a very bad piece of archaeology in the form of Montet's excavations at Byblos. If you look at the Montet report, there ...
