... picture can only be built out of the convergence of several traditions, and this shall be the task of further chapters. But right now, there is at least one age designated as the first, when the Mill ground out peace and plenty. It is the Golden Age, in Latin tradition, Saturnia regna, the reign, of Saturn; in Greek, Kronos. In this dim perplexing figure there is an extraordinary concordance throughout world myths. In India it as Yama; in the Old Persian Avesta it was Yima xsaeta [n13 See H. Collitz, "Konig Yima und Saturn," Festschrift Pavry (1933) pp. 86-108. See also A. Scherer ...
482. Conference: Our Violent Solar System [Journals] [SIS Internet Digest]
... that Alford started reading Worlds in Collision for the first time Thursday, Sept 20th, 2000- one day before the conference. Monday (the day after the conference) he was nearly finished .. . and he quoted Velikovsky at the post-conference discussion. Will this seminar, by introducing him to Velikovsky and the "Three Musketeers of the Saturn Theory" lead to another "conversion" (and further loss of popularity) for him? Dunno. We'll have to wait and see. Ted Holden's familiar "impossible dinosaurs" is as still a crucial point in the discussion of Earth's ancient history. He's added a few details that I wasn't aware of. First, an estimate ...
483. Giants In The Earth [Journals] [Velikovskian]
... From: The Velikovskian Vol 1 No 4 (1993) Home | Issue Contents Giants In The Earth Ted Holden Most of the evidence being presented in support of the Saturn Myth concept is either historical and heavily dependant upon interpretations of mythological and classical themes, or of a highly theoretical nature (e .g . Lynn E. Rose's explanation for the Tethys Sea). Do we have any more concrete evidence, any real way of knowing or of proving that the Saturn Myth scenario is actually required for any of the physical evidence of past ages? I believe that we do, that a careful study of the sizes of antediluvian creatures and of what it would take to ...
484. Letters [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... This means that mankind would not have been able to observe the heavens during the cataclysm even if the prevailing conditions offered such a possibility anyway. Those who survived probably did so by staying in the deepest caves available which had entrances above flood level. It is evident from Greek mythology that at some time during the recorded memory of mankind, Saturn was regarded as the major luminary and that the Earth was close enough to this planet for men to see the formation of the rings from a collection of small satellites. They saw this phenomenon as the castration of the god with a shining blade and commemorated it by harvesting mistletoe berries with a golden sickle. They were also close enough ...

486. Implications for Chronology if Certain 'Historical' Characters are Mythological [Journals] [SIS Review]
... so, and once she had arrived at her boyfriend's side the path turned into a kind of ladder on which all of them climbed up. They remained in the sky, to one side of the sun' [11]. The ladder-to-heaven, as I shall show in a forthcoming monograph, is the World Pillar as reconstructed by the Saturn theory. Only the polar configuration can account for the ladder's mythical role as a road to heaven, conduit for the transmigration of various heroes and divine personages, and backbone-like appendage of the ancient sun god. Interestingly enough, the planet Mars is said to have made periodic forays up this ladder-to-heaven, a tradition reported in the New and ...
487. Mythscape Video Series [Journals] [Aeon]
... catastrophe and cosmic upheaval. Velikovsky's research led to the disturbing conclusion that early civilizations were nearly destroyed by the close approach of a great, legendary comet, an intruder Velikovsky identified as the planet Venus, then on an erratic orbit. In the 1970s, David Talbott became fascinated with Velikovsky's work, including the author's controversial claim that the planet Saturn formerly moved close to Earth, presiding over the lost "Golden Age." This video is based on his 1980 book, The Saturn Myth. Talbott's story is one of discovery and disappointment, extraordinary insight and confrontation with conventional science. The questions raised have haunted researchers for decades: Why do the same enigmatic symbols recur from one ...
488. Night of the Gods: Axis Myths [Books]
... . All the gods called Dallas are, it is suggested, clearly due to one monster type; one legend makes Dallas the son of Lycaon, another, the son of Pan-Dion; another, the son of Herakles the axis-god and Otiva daughter of Euandros. Virgil makes Dallas son of Evander or Evandrus, whom some mythologists have equated with Saturn or Kronos. (Recollect that Evan or Evav was a surname of Bacchus). Nor must we forget that Zeus was called Pallantios. Pallenie in Ovid is a northern land wherein is a marsh called Pallantios, in which bathing nine times gives feathers and "the right to fly." A vagary upon the Trinity-House of the Northern ...
489. The Scars Of Mars Part II [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... the closest surface of Mars.) If an ice ball fragmented, it would spray one side, or one hemisphere, of Mars- and do so suddenly. Such a scenario fits the parameters of the dry Martian river beds. Are there in fact ice balls elsewhere in our solar system? Saturn's rings are at the Roche Limit for Saturn, and they are indeed composed of tiny icy fragments. This is an example of an icy fragmentation. Saturn has a family, or passel, of interesting icy satellites. Among them (from inner to outer altitudes) are Mimas, Enceladus, Tethys, Dione, Rhea, Titan, and Iapetus. Their densities are believed to ...

... himself confesses: "The match with Uranus could, perhaps, be put down to coincidence" (p . 94). If the this is the case, how can we be sure that the other figures are not just as coincidental? When commenting on a table which shows the perigee and apogee of the planets from Mercury out to Saturn, including the Sun, with percentages of error (p . 98), he himself again confesses that this "crude analysis" is not sufficient to show that the table "contains a statistically significant pattern" even though he adds that "it does suggest that this possibility is worth investigating." (p . 103) Fair ...
