... the Bible which cites them, but accurate knowledge of reign lengths apparently underlies the artificially constructed system. The annals may have recorded reigns in years, months and days but in the form they are preserved they have been rounded so that the date, in effect, is recorded accession year fashion, commencing 13/14th Nisan, until the seven months inserted for Zachariah and Shallum shift the commencement of the regnal year to 13/14th of the eighth month. The chronology discovered by Stenring for the period discussed is summarised in Table 2 [20]. Since regnal years change at sunset an accession date may belong to either regnal year. The devisers of the system therefore had ...
302. Intimations of an Alien Sky [Journals] [Aeon]
... already seen, Shamash was a name for Saturn as well as the Sun, may we not assume that so was Arka? And if this is the case, would not Agni then be a representation of Saturn rather than the Sun? But let us leave assumptions and ambiguities aside. Another designation for Agni is Saptan-Amshu, which means "seven rays or beams of light." (108) The planet Saturn is also known by a virtually identical name- Saptan-Archis, which translates as "seven rays of light or flames." (109) What is of additional interest, and of great import, is that only Agni and the planet Saturn are anywhere in Sanskrit literature ...
303. On the Disproportion between Geological Time and Historical Time Part One - Of Apes and Men [Journals] [SIS Review]
... tradition, and like the Oldowan, it appeared all at once, fully developed. It was a new idea, not an old habit repeatedly modified. Indeed, at Olduvai the Acheulean does not seem to have proceeded out of any earlier tradition at all, for the Oldowan, chopper-core tradition continued and overlapped the Acheulean for at least another seven hundred thousand years, virtually ignoring its innovations. The stone chopper fulfilled its particular function to a degree the Acheulean tradition could not improve upon - just as today Turkana tribesmen of northern Kenya use such choppers for cracking nuts [7 ]. Vast periods of cultural stasis in the Pleistocene are common. The Acheulean tradition also changed little. ...
304. The Sibylline Oracles [Books]
... Sibyl among the Latin communities is only one instance of the general divergence. Tertullian follows the Greek apologists in giving a high place to the Sibyl. She is older than all literature: her evidence is the " testimonia divinarum literarum."49 He is followed by Arnobius and Commodian, and, above all, by Lactantius. In the seven books of the Divinæ Institutiones, one of the series of polemical and apologetic works which we may regard as precursors of the De Civitate Dei, Lactantius relies throughout, with implicit confidence, on the testimony of the Sibyl. His armoury contains some strange weapons- pseudo-Orphic verses, oracles of Apollo, relics of the pseudo-Hystaspes, quotations from ...
305. Response to Critique by Leroy Ellenberger [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... to be a Mars-Venus flyby in order to answer the angular momentum issue. However, such a flyby helps in my balancing of the energy budgets. Our disagreement reflects room for flexibility, adjustments, tinkering, and varieties of opinions as planetary catastrophists, which we both are. I propose Step 1, a Mars-Venus flyby, for the following seven reasons. First, 0.10660 energy units are needed in order to balance the catastrophic energy budget. Venus serves this function in my model. There will be more about this later. Secondly, if Mars impinged into Venusian orbit space, and if both were coplanar, as it seems, and if they were not in orbit ...
306. The 108-year Cyclicism of the Ancient Catastrophes [Journals] [Aeon]
... tubulustrium" to historians of ancient Rome. But what about the other location where Mars crossed the Earth's orbit, already identified as the October 24 location. Only once in the Old Testament- in Genesis 7:11- is this date cited. This was the 17th day of Marchesvan on the ancient Hebrew civil calendar. In pouring over seven volumes of Ginzberg, it was discovered (a ) that no calendar date was given for the Long Day of Joshua, but that (b ) a calendric date was given for the celebrating of the anniversary of the Long Day of Joshua, and that date also was Marchesvan 17, or October 24.(12) In five ...
307. Cosmic Winter [Articles]
... they got diverted from their business by the discovery that objects, which they didn't expect at least, were hitting the Moon. These seismometers regularly recorded large bodies hitting the Moon like the meteoroids which I've just been describing. And this diagram is an illustration of the record of the incidence of these meteoroids, integrated over a period of about seven years until NASA switched the machine off- in exasperation, apparently, because they didn't think it was telling us anything very interesting. Nevertheless, for seven or eight years they accumulated this data, and what you see here is the integral result of the observations, per day, through the years, throughout the whole of this seven ...
308. Thoth Vol I, No. 4: March 2, 1997 [Journals] [Thoth]
... , brashly asserting that these personalities all intersect with the ONE STORY in highly specific ways, and claiming that the myth-making epoch has not presented us with any other elementary types. If true, this will mean that the pervasive motives of the first civilizations, cited above, must bear a direct relationship to the *remembered activities* of the seven archetypal figures. Hence, this is a testable hypothesis. If it is incorrect, it can and will be easily disproved under the groundrules we have proposed. This leaves two other issues relating to the foundations of a theory. What are the relationships of these root personalities to *planets*? And what is their relationship to the ...
309. Assyria: is the Conventional Profile Believable? [Journals] [SIS Review]
... Data for these suspect years. This can be shown thus: Year Date Historical Happenings 12 709/706 MB defeated, Sargon enters Babylon, tribute' from Dur Iakin 13 708/705 Dur Iakin destroyed, Kummuhu defeated 14 707/704 The king returned from Babylon; the gods were in their temples 15 703 Ispabara, Marubishtu, seven officials in Karalli or Ellipi? Table Four As year 15 or 703 cannot have a corresponding wrong' year we can be forgiven for deciding that we have found a base from which to proceed. This also appears to resolve the problem with the non-existent year 14 details. As there are no military activities in year 14 it seems that ...
310. Planet of the Greeks by Meres J. Weche (Book Review). C&C Review 2002:1 [Journals] [SIS Review]
... which symbolised the Khemetic deity Atum Kheprer who protected the pyramids and the king's ka. 4th Dynasty kings usurped this and took credit for them. III Creation Weche notices a similarity between the Khemetic Heleopolitan Theology and that of the Hebrew Bible. The work of the six days' is expanded, via Enoch and the Jewish Aggada, into the Seven Heavens, Earths and Ages. God is said to have destroy the earth using the planets 6 times. We live in the Seventh Creation. Weche gives his dates for the catastrophes ending the Ages: 2730, 2130, 1559, 1135, 776, 612 BC, each marking the end of a Typhon Season' (usually 52 ...
