... the two new burials had the body in a sitting position on top of an extinguished fire. In Tasmania, aboriginal rock art has been discovered in a cave.

622. Cosmic Heretics [Journals] [Aeon]
... A regular catalogue of Macmillan books in science carried Worlds in Collision as a possible supplementary reading in general courses. This was a trifle, to be sure, but a red cloth is no trifle to a goaded bull. Still the annoying question once more arises: why should not the book have been advertised as a contribution to science, ... to two sets of events that are claimed to have befallen the world in the years around 1450 and 700 B.C ., about seven hundred years apart. The planet Venus, argued Velikovsky, began its career as a comet that probably exploded from the giant planet Jupiter sometime, whether a few years or thousands of years before its ...

... twofold enclosure was the double circle of the gods (the Two Enneads) encircling the Two Lands.

The connection appears to be very old, for it occurs also in ancient Babylonia. Ninurta, the planet Saturn, hold in his hands a weapon called SAR-UR-U-SAR-GAZ, and also BAB-BA-NU-IL-LA. The first name of Ninurta's weapon means "who governs the Cosmos and who massacres the ...

... release of huge mudslides, "lahars" as they are called in geology. Three hundred and more meters deep (1 ,000 ft.) in places, the red mud spread 100 km from proto-Mt. Shasta. Remnants of it can be seen in the Weaverville area, where it is known as the "Weaverville formation" and ... "cataform features" may circumvent further laboured attempts to resolve high-energy constructs gradual-istically. Approximately two hundred astroblemes have been identified on a worldwide basis. By comparison with other stony planets the number found on Earth is deficient, a fact likely due to erosion and crustal recycling. By contrast to identified astroblemes, hardly any gastroblemes have been recognised. ...
625. More on Apollo [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... " Apollo-and-Artemis is born on a "floating island" (heaving from quakes and tossing sea). The island is surrounded by a huge wall of water (compare the Red Sea parting). It is plunged into darkness and the agony continues for nine days and nights (the time of the Egyptian darkness). At the same time ... mother Saturn-Leto is seen as that of two "swans". Was it a close conjunction of Saturn that tore Venus loose from Jupiter? And did it leave the two planets with temporary "wings" of gas and dust? This is verified by the parallel myth of the birth of Minerva where Hephaistos assists by striking Zeus on the head ...

... . Equally, the Hyades are regarded as the tracks of a part of young women, also "not yet lubras". Half of these are Mbitjana (tataka: red) and the other half Paltara (tjilkera: white). The Paltara girls of the Hyades have for their father the "daylight star", presumably Venus. ... began some investigations into the possibility that Aboriginal myths might have some synonymity with the myths of other cultures. My initial intent was to draw on Aboriginal myths related to the planets and major constellations and try to find parallels. For my primary source of data I have been using an exceptionally well-presented anthology of Aboriginal stories called Australian Dreaming.( ...

... to strike mankind. We find very many names for Sun-gods- Mitra, Indra (the day brought by the sun), Sűrya, Vasishtha, Arusha (bright or red.); and for the Dawn-gods Ushas, Dyaus, Dyotanâ, Ahana, Urvasi. We have only to consider how tremendously important must have been the coming of ... and Epping that this stage was reached at Babylon at least 300 years B.C ., at which time regular calculations were made of the future positions of moon and planets, and of such extreme accuracy that they could have been at once utilised for practical purposes. It looks as if rough determinations of star places were made at about ...

... earth or in heaven is there one so mighty that he can do such deed as Thine in Egypt, or who can perform such mighty deeds as Thou didst at the Red Sea?

For Moses said to God: "Lord of the world! If we had worshipped the stars and planets, the Midianites should not have hated us, they hate us only on account of the Torah and the commandments that Thou hast given us, hence must Thou avenge ...
629. Proof of A Celestial Counterforce to Gravity [Journals] [Velikovskian]
... denial that only gravity operates in celestial motion. My Electro-Gravitic theory explains that there is an electromagnetic counterforce to gravity.

... was "another example of the apologetic procedure"; Dr. Henry Field, anthropologist and archaeologist, said that the book was wrong because the Israelites did not cross the Red Sea, but almost certainly the shallow sea of reeds. (I did not locate the Sea of Passage, and in any case, what matters was that in ... days, "rubbish and nonsense." In support of such an annihilating statement Shapley offered only two brief sentences: "There are written records of the observation of the planet Venus 500 to 1000 years before the Exodus," and "Venus has a mass approximately a million times greater than any comet." We shall meet both these ...
