... (18, p. 65) Elmore, however, does not object to the prevalent scholarly view that Shiva and his wife are of Dravidian origin and, since Kali is one of Shiva's wives, the door is thus opened to a Dravidian origin of the Devi. This gains strength from the importance attached in Dravidian religion to the "Seven Sisters" and the fact that female deities are prominent in Dravidian religious beliefs. On the other hand, Elmore also presents a number of criteria to assist one on spotting Dravidian deities in ostensibly Hindu guises. These criteria do not fit the Devi with striking aptness: "The Dravidian gods, however, are usually local in their origin ...
372. Response to Bimson [Journals] [SIS Review]
... me, which I shall presently provide, but before doing so, let me put a few questions to him, which I hope he will have the courtesy to respond to. Question 1: How does he explain the stratigraphic gaps, or periods of non-occupation, found throughout the Near East? There are three of these; one of seven centuries between the Akkadians and the Mitanni: one of five centuries between the Mitanni and the Neo-Assyrians and one of two centuries between the Neo-Assyrians and the Hellenists. Removing these gaps, which are not real periods of abandonment but textbook artifacts caused by a faulty chronology, allows the archaeology to conform precisely to the historical sequence outlined by the ...
373. Letters [Journals] [SIS Review]
... compounds might produce the observed radar reflections. Another factor of significance concerning cosmic encounters was mentioned in the book Divine Encounters by Zecharia Sitchin (Avon Books, NY, 1995) stating Both Sumerian and Old Babylonian texts speak of celestial upheavals that were observed in the skies and that called for incantations against the celestial demons'. These described an evil seven, born in the vast skies, unknown in heaven, unknown on Earth' who attacked Sin (the Moon) and Shamash (the Sun) upsetting at the same time Ishtar (Venus) and Adad (Mercury). In my computer simulations I showed a stream of matter ejected from Jupiter which I assumed eventually coagulated into one ...
... discovered in connection with the procedure of volcanic eruptions or earthquakes or both. COMETARY IMPACT PRESERVED IN MYTHS AND TRADITIONS 145.Before closing this chapter it is useful to revert once more to the ancient views on cometary impact as evidenced in the Phaeton myth, and Osiris and Typhon or Set, and the red dragon or Satan of Revelation with seven heads, ten horns, and seven crowns. The Phaeton myth, as was stated, was believed to be identical with the Flood of Deucalion, and the great star Sirius was thought in some way to be connected traditionally with it. It is most probable that the " Sun" which the Egyptians worshipped as the Seat of God ...

... to the surface! The star cooled further in the 1970s and 80s and then all of a sudden in 1992 its magnitude dropped to 14. Further drops occurred from 1992 to 1996 with a very deep minimum near magnitude 16 in June of 1996." [Italics added] So, after abruptly brightening by four magnitudes, it has dropped seven magnitudes. From the end of the last century FG Sagittae has evolved across the HR diagram changing from a normal hot giant to a "late spectral type" (cool) star with marked changes in its surface chemical composition. This is not the kind of slow stellar evolution mainstream astronomers envision. And FG Sagittae is a binary pair ...
376. The Original Star of Dawn [Articles]
... the Saturnian orb in the north celestial sphere. This interpretation is further evidenced by the fact that, besides being called qerert, each division of the Duat was also referred to as arret, that is a hall. What is of interest here is that, according to the "Papyrus of Nu," these halls of the Duat were seven in number which, among other things, explains the plurality of circles associated with Ra's habitation. But, more than that, these seven arrets of the Duat refer to the evolution of the Saturnian band into seven concentric circles, concerning which I have been writing since 1978. The most convincing evidence concerning the interpretation of the Duat as ...

378. On Number As Artifact: Part 2: Development [Journals] [Horus]
... ? There is every evidence that it did. R.T . Zuidema, an authority on Inca political and social systems, believes the Incas "had a complicated system of simultaneously using four different types of months."[2 ] In his published study of an early Peruvian calendar textile he finds convincing evidence of the sidereal month: Seven regular rows are in the upper part and four in the lower, each consisting of 7 x 4 = 28 rectangles. These 11 rows clearly refer to sidereal lunar months of 27-1/3 days rounded off to 28 days. The 13 months of 28 days form a year of 364 days, which is 1 ½ days short of ...
379. Were Abraham, Joseph, and Moses Located in the Old Kingdom? [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... placed at the end of the Sixth Dynasty. Abraham One of the supports Fry uses to place Abraham in the First Dynasty is that Josephus claims Abraham taught the Egyptians mathematics and astronomy. That would necessitate Abraham's entry into the Egyptian Kingdom prior to the building of the pyramids. A second reason is that the Bible states that Hebron was built seven years before Tanis (Zoan). The Book of Jubilees states that Abraham lived during the time of Hebron's construction, and further Egyptian history mentions Tanis/ Zoan in the Old Kingdom. A third reason claims that the artifact found in the Royal Cemetery ofUr, called by archaeologists the "Ram in the Thicket," is indeed a ...
380. The Venus Tablets and Climate [Journals] [SIS Review]
... of setting had 29 or 30 days. There are four solutions', or Venus date sequences which come within the range of archaeological possibility [2 ]. The sequence beginning -1701 (i .e ., 1702 BC) has for Year 6 an interval of two days; -1645 and -1637 have each four days, and -1581 has seven days. The differences are, of course, due to changes in the ecliptic latitude of Venus [3 ]. Obviously, only the first solution meets the astronomical requirements. But solution -1645 happens to fit in with an alternative version of Year 6 which gives an interval of five days. Because of that version, solution -1645 was ...
