72. Worlds In Collision And Recent Finds In Archaeology. Ch.17 Supplement (Earth In Upheaval) [Velikovsky] [Velikovsky Earth in Upheaval]
... Hittite. I also expect unequivocal evidence that these signs were used down to the last century before the present era. Owing to the confusion in the conventional chronology, the Chaldean writings of the Neo-Babylonian Empire are ascribed to early centuries and an imaginary empire. W. F. Libby and his associates at the University of Chicago have developed the radiocarbon method of dating organic matter. Wood from under the foundation of the "Hittite" fortress of Alisar in Asia Minor turned out to be seven to eight hundred years younger than conventional chronology would allow,3 thus giving full support to my dating. Hittite history, interwoven with Egyptian history of the New Kingdom, cannot be shortened without ...

... made and its being deposited. In an extreme case of . . . early third millennium Egyptian stone vases, found in tombs at Knossos and in the Argolid of c.1400 B.C ., it can be as much as fifteen hundred years [! ] " [G . Cadogan, "Dating the Aegean Bronze Age without Radiocarbon," Archaeometry, 20 (1978), p. 211, e.a .] . Furthermore, according to P. Betancourt, an authority on Late Aegean Bronze Age ceramic ware, since "LM IIIA:I vases were already in use during the reign of Tuthmosis III, then it is highly likely the LM IB ...
74. Heinsohn's Revised Chronology [Journals] [Aeon]
... to learn the languages of ancient Mesopotamia so that he can control the original source material and critically evaluate the statements he finds in the secondary literature. (3 ) Scientific Dating Methods Heinsohn's chronology is also opposed by the evidence of various scientific dating methods developed in the past few decades. The most important of these, of course, is radiocarbon or carbon-14 (C14) dating which produces absolute dates for organic material by comparing the ratio of radioactive carbon (C14) and normal carbon (C12) isotopes within the object being tested with the ratio of these carbon isotopes in the atmosphere. Because the half life of the radioactive carbon-14 isotope is known, the length of time necessary ...
75. Introduction (Peoples of the Sea) [Velikovsky]
... my interest in the problem of the reactions of the human community to the traumatic experiences in the past certainly kept me vigilant during the time when my readers claimed I had not fulfilled my promise to issue the second volume of Ages in Chaos. But one thing I certainly wished to happen before the balance of Ages in Chaos was published-confirmation from radiocarbon research. The problem of Carbon 14 and its applicability to the chronology of ancient history is most involved because of the fact that, when cosmic cataclysmic events took place, the imbalancing of the C 14-C 12 ratio in hydrosphere and biosphere must have taken place. I have discussed the problem elsewhere. [1 ] But I can disclose ...
76. Recent Finds In Geology. Ch.17 Supplement (Earth In Upheaval) [Velikovsky] [Velikovsky Earth in Upheaval]
... Sept Iles, in Canada, and occupying an area of 680 square miles, is under investigation as to its meteoric origin by a group of Mines Department scientists led by Dr. M. J. S. Innes. Of the many other new developments in the field of geology, I would stress some of the results obtained by the radiocarbon method. The time of the Ice Age is moved much closer to our time. Instead of 25 000 years as the terminal date of the last glacial period, it is shown that 10 000 or 11 000 years ago the ice was still advancing; and even with this low dating there remain "puzzling exceptions,"10 among ...
77. Focus [Journals] [SIS Review]
... . Dr Baity will be familiar to some as the author of a long article in Current Anthrolopogy (vol. 14, 1973) reviewing the present state of archaeo-astronomical studies. There was a certain amount of confusion over the arrangements for this seminar. Dr G. W. van Oosterhout of Delft was listed as giving a paper on "Radiocarbon and Catastrophes" but did not attend, and my own contribution, also on radiocarbon dating was somehow listed under Section VI (Neolithic). A rumour that Professor Claude Schaeffer would attend was not borne out and the authors of a promising paper on the eruption of Thera, D. B. and C. J. Vitaliano, ...
78. Recent Developments in Near Eastern Archaeology [Journals] [SIS Review]
... Eastern Studies 55 (1996 pp. 1-14) presents a very reasonable case for dating Thera to the reign of Ahmose, c.1530 BC on the conventional chronology. They argue that Ahmose's Tempest Stela' describes severe effects over all Egypt, not just in the Theban region as the original translator assumed. They also point out that the radiocarbon evidence, while preferring a 17th century date, by no means rules out their date in the 16th century (due to a wiggle in the calibration curve). The Irish dendrochronological aberration at 1628BC has not been proven to relate to Thera. Bietak in his new book Avaris... (British Museum, 1996) is scathing ...
79. Forum [Journals] [SIS Review]
... nature of the famine of Joseph and the possible causes of it are well taken. I agree with your identification of Imhotep and Joseph. Very strong evidence from the Egyptian records supports this, and the complete reconstruction of Old and Middle Kingdom chronology that it requires had been presented to Donovan Courville and by Dr Herman L. Hoeh*. Radiocarbon dates from about the time of the Mars disaster (ca. -750 to ca. -680) back to the Exodus have to be adjusted to the Suess calibration. Given the sheer scale of the Exodus disaster and the changes it wrought on the atmosphere, any radiocarbon dates, favourable or not, before the Exodus should, I think ...
80. Forum Part Two [Journals] [SIS Review]
... earlier than Stonehenge. In Cameroon (Africa), some megalithic buildings are even C14-dated to the 7th millennium BC. In contrast, the earliest megalithic buildings of Korea, China and South America only date back to the late 2nd and early 1st millennium BC. Consequently, Heribert Illig's archaeological study and global comparison of megalithic buildings rejected the unreliable radiocarbon chronologies, dating the megalithic cultures according to comparative technological development - to the 2nd and 1st millennium BC [27]. A third hypothesis therefore presents itself: 3. Either the radiocarbon method of dating is wholly inaccurate, or the emergence of megalithic buildings around the world occurred gradually over a period of several thousand years, unrelated to ...
