... and Phrygian (or Trojan) eras. The Assyrian period terminated with the Fall of Nineveh in 612 B.C . Volume III, which Velikovsky calls "Dark Age of Greece," discusses the distortions in our understanding of the ancient Greek world which were produced by errors in the Egyptian chronology. Volume IV, which Velikovsky calls "Ramses II and His Time," describes the period of Chaldean domination from 612 B.C . to the conquest of Egypt by Cambyses in 525 B.C . Here Velikovsky demonstrates that the Hittite Empire' is a mythical construct from the Chaldean archives and the Chaldean remains of the NeoBabylonian Empire. Volume V, which Velikovsky calls " ...

... not in vogue in the Old Kingdom, so only his bones- not his body- could be taken. Moses The pharaoh prior to the one at the Reed Sea had to have reigned a long time. Pepy II of the Sixth Dynasty had the longest tenure of all- about 90 or 94 years. While it is true that Ramses II had a 64-year reign, it is still too short for the Bible story. The king who followed Pepy II reigned only one year; the Bible states that from the Burning Bush to the Reed Sea was only a year's time. The next pharaoh following Meren-Ra (the one-year king) had no years. Could he be the ...

... members of the group, like the editor of Workshop , should be excused from experiencing a degree of confusion. It may be of assistance to the group as well as of interest to the general readership if Geoffrey Gammon could draw up a list of what appear to be insurmountable obstacles in Velikovsky's revision (either now or after the issue of Ramesses II which is hourly and eagerly expected') so that members may more easily form their own opinions. STUDY GROUPS IN GENERAL There has been some talk concerning the desirability of widening the scope of the study group scene to include other aspects of Velikovsky's work apart from the purely historical one. It may be that in the same area ...

And you might not get all the presidents- some lists excluded those who were not worthy, much as a current list might exclude Millard Filmore, Franklin Pearce, James Buchanan, Andrew Johnson, Warren G. Harding, and Richard Nixon, for reasons of either incompetence or shame. Ramses II erected just such a list. We guess at the lengths of pharaoh's reigns by the events that are recorded, and the last recorded event of that reign is often all we have to go on. That is why, for instance, there is so much confusion on the co-regency of Amenhotep III and Akhnaton- we simply don't ...

... The Priory Gate, 57 Friars Street, Sudbury, Suffolk. I feel that this book demands attention and is a suitable subject for discussion by members. In many ways it supports or adds fresh evidence to the theories advocated by Velikovsky, suggests an alternative to "Peoples of the Sea" and other origins for the alphabet put forward in Ramses II. It is also noted that the village named Ipiutak at Point Hope is here given as Toiutak. Being elderly and comparatively static, I would like to read other's views as my sources are restricted to public libraries and to such books I can afford on a limited pension, which rather limits reading.

... of students, one, in my opinion, stands out above all. His books, quite simply, are not in print. In this respect, I believe that Velikovsky himself unwittingly undermined his own strongest weapon. In the late 1970s, he finally came out with a new stream of books after a silence of nearly two decades: Ramses II and His Time, Peoples of the Sea, Mankind in Amnesia, and Stargazers and Gravediggers. Their sales, however, were much weaker than those of the sturdy Worlds in Collision, Ages in Chaos, and Earth in Upheaval, which weakness appears to have undermined publishers' confidence in issuing paperback editions of the original Big Three ...

... books; the delays have been Velikovsky's own choice. The Ages in Chaos sequel, first set in type over 20 years ago as a single volume, has now grown to four or five volumes. Velikovsky has chosen to subject each volume to the most rigorous checking and cross-checking procedure possible. Two of these volumes are now near publication: Rameses II and His Time and Peoples of the Sea, - - the former may come out this summer and the latter shortly thereafter. None of the other works Velikovsky has been preparing, including Mankind in Amnesia and the story of the Deluge, are currently scheduled for publication. So far, all his books have been published by Doubleday ...
