... by the sons of his nurse. His dates would be 939-31 or 938-29 (Moscati 918-10, corrected to 928-20). Moscati then allows for only three rulers before lthobalus, whereas there appear to have been four (refer to Josephus). His dates for Ithobalus are 887-56 corrected to 897-66. If we reduce Hiram's son back, to seven years and allow for the other twelve-year reign, Moscati's dates for Ithobalus would be c. 895-64. James regards the mention of Ba'li-ma-Anzeri as king of Tyre in 841 as our best chronological fix. The question is, can this king be identified with Balezoros (Ithobalus' son)? In order to meet such a synchronization the chronology ...
552. When Earth Was Not Yet Created: An Account of Sumerian Cosmogony [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... Epic of Creation (1923), 17ff, and Frankfort, op. cit., 397, n. 9. However, the cosmogonic theories of the epic are unaffected by the later planetary names. 11) There are other Mesopotamian texts suggesting that Tiamat's Kingu and Earth's Moon are one and the same. Cf. King, The Seven Tablets of Creation (1902), 212-13. 12) Apollo landings on the Moon have disclosed unaccounted for abundance of lead; DUG.GA.E also meant "pot of lead." 13) Astronomers have speculated that Pluto is an escaped satellite, presumably of Neptune, its neighbor. My interpretation of Enuma elish confirms such ...
553. The Cloud of Jehovah [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... and Jehovah's glory began to appear. . . . Then Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying: "You men rise up from the midst of this assembly, that I may exterminate them in an instant." . . . Moses said the plague has started!" . . . And those dead from the scourge amounted to fourteen thousand seven hundred. . . . [Numbers 16:41-42, 44-46,49] These deaths were much too sudden and easily circumvented (Moses merely moved out of the way) to have resulted from plague. What though could have acted on such a scale so quickly? And what could it possibly have had to do with sky-to-ground discharges ...
554. The Synchronistic Chronical: A Critique [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... B.C .- the time of the 4ssyrian king Tukulti-Ninurta I; however, by adopting a "triple" line of kings for early Assyria he now (IBS, Vol. 2) aligns Mursilis with Enlil-Nirari, c. 1320 B.C . In both cases an unwarranted lacuna occurs between the Old and Imperial Hittite periods. Seven generations (c . 175 years) separate Mursili~ I from the Imperial Suppiluliumas I,[20] a contemporary of the Amarna pharaoh Akhnaton, c. 840 B.C ., indicating that Mursilis belongs late in the twelfth century B.C .- a date clearly incompatible with the demise of the Amorite Dynasty. When ...
555. Saturn's Sacred Mountain [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... According to him, direct collision was averted by an electrostatic cushioning effect. "The head of the comet [Venus] did not crash into the earth, but exchanged major electrical discharges with it." [22] Mars did not even play a part in the Exodus catastrophe. In Worlds in Collision Mars does not threaten Earth until seven hundred years later. [23] Following in Velikovsky's footsteps, Donald Patten et al. had more to say concerning these Martian catastrophes. Whereas the former restricted such lesser disturbances to the eighth and seventh centuries B.C ., the latter have blamed every biblical catastrophe- with the exception of the Noachian Deluge- on the recurrent ...
556. The Ruined Face of a Classic Beauty [Books] [de Grazia books]
... They are Martian material electrically heated and exploded, which fastened electrically upon the surface of the Moon. To the wishful eyes of men, women, and children of the eighth and seventh century, Aphrodite emerged more beautiful than ever from her escapade with Mars. Perhaps it grew less lovely thereafter, for Plutarch was speaking of its craggy appearance seven centuries later [15]. The astronauts and geophysicists of today have to report the disillusioning fact that the face of the classical beauty was ruined. Notes (Chapter 9: The Ruined Face of a Classic Beauty)1. Dionysiaca, I, 213-23, trans. W.M .D . Rouse (Loeb Library). ...
557. A Potential Historical Connection for the Death and Burial of Jacob in Genesis [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... on the stela. Khu-Sebek begins his recitation by telling the reader he was born under Amenemhet II, giving us an approximate figure for his age, about 70 during the Asiatic campaign. He then came to Sesostris' palace and in his first post there "his majesty had me work as a fighter behind and beside his majesty, with seven men of the [royal] Residence."6 This apparently means he was a member of the personal bodyguard. Then came another promotion: "I showed keenness in his presence and his majesty had me made an Attendant of the Ruler, and sixty persons were given to me."7 Then follows the Nubian campaign: as ...
558. Editorial [Journals] [Horus]
... . Why was the number 13 considered unlucky by the Egyptians? Why do the Hebrews associate the destruction of the Passover with the same number? Was it because the catastrophe which befell the land of Egypt occurred on the 13th day of Thoth? But how about Friday the 13th? Noting that the days of the week are associated with the Seven Planets (see "The Planetary Week" in a future issue), we find that Friday is Venus. Is this association a mere coincidence, or was Venus involved in some ancient natural catastrophe? As Alice said, "Curiouser and curiouser." W.J . Douglas ...
559. Horus Introduces the ISCBM Board of Directors [Journals] [Horus]
... and producer for WPXI -TY (NBC), channel 11, in Pittsburgh. He began his television career in the late forties as a parttime announcer, singer, puppeteer, and film editor at WBNS-TV Columbus. He was brought to Pittsburgh in 1960 to host a live morning show on KDKA-TV which, because of its excellent ratings, ran seven years. His versatile beginnings led to a career as a very respected producer of television specials both locally and nationally. Before joining WPXl-TV, Mr. Riggs produced and hosted several programs for WQED-TV and the Public Broadcasting System. His "Close-Up" series achieved the highest audience rating of any locally produced cultural series in Public Broadcasting. For ...
560. The Strange Phenomenon of Solar Prominences [Journals] [Horus]
... : Prominences can only be seen at all by the naked eye at times of total solar eclipse, which is an extremely rare occurrence. The last total eclipse visible from London, for example, was in 1714 and the next will not be visible till the year 2151. Also, totality seldom lasts for more than a few minutes, seven at maximum. Even at times of eclipse, it is quite impossible to resolve prominences, especially the quiescent type, into definition of form without some degree of magnification. The photographs in the figures were taken with the aid of a high-power telescope. The image of the "beast" in Figure 3, for example, is only ...
