Well, anyway ... While Velikovsky was writing his challenge to geological uniformitarianism, Einstein was working with another catastrophist, Charles H. Hapgood, who proposed that the Earth's crust has recently and repeatedly shifted due to imbalances caused by the planet's nonsphericity and asymmetrical icecap growth.

While I regret ... one dreamed we would find the enormous city and archive at Ebla. However, moving Ebla down to this period is an essential step once the Heinsohn "1 ,600-year shift" model of Mesopotamian history is adopted, as I have done, just as VIth dynasty Egypt and proto-Syrian I must move down too. But if this is done ...

He thought that the destroyers seem to have added fuel to the flames, for the materials in the nearby buildings could hardly have produced such heat. ... walls had simply followed the outline of what remained of the Late Bronze Age temple 2.
