... supported by the following: "The sepulchral chambers of Ugarit influenced the architecture of sepulchral chambers on Cyprus - but not until more than half a millennium had elapsed. The naval catalogue of Ugarit reappeared in the epic creations of Homer after an interlude of several centuries. Jewels identical with those of Ugarit were worn by maidens of Jerusalem six or seven hundred years after the destruction of Ugarit. The poetic style and meter, the legal ordinances and sacerdotal practices, even the system or weights, re-emerged after an equally long period. Dividing strokes between written words were introduced into the script of Cyprus some seven hundred years after the script Of Ras Shamra with the same characteristics had fallen into ...
652. Heretics, Dogmatists and Science's Reception of New Ideas (Part 3) [Journals] [Kronos]
... . Professor Sagan's calculations, in effect, ignore the law of gravity. Here Velikovsky was the better astronomer." Then, after criticizing Velikovsky's scientific documentation on several grounds, Jastrow granted Velikovsky three correct predictions: "Venus is hot; Jupiter emits radio noise; and the moon's rocks are magnetic." Following this was a list of seven selected false predictions.(164) Since "nothing geologically remarkable happened 3,500 years ago on the Earth or on the moon" according to his interpretation of the evidence, Jastrow concluded that we will not "witness a revolution of scientific thought in our own lifetime". The only letter printed in reaction to Jastrow's article was ...
653. Jupiter -- God of Abraham (Part I) [Journals] [Kronos]
... in the west and set in the east and that, at some point during his life, east and west changed places. It seems, however, that this had not been so since time immemorial for it is stated elsewhere that just prior to the Noachian Deluge the Sun used to rise in the east as it does now. "Seven days before the Deluge, the Holy One changed the primeval order and the sun rose in the west and set in the east."(91) According to Herodotus, the Egyptians believed that the Sun had changed its place of rising and setting four different times in the past. "The sun . . . on four several ...
654. Aphrodite The Moon or Venus? (Continued) [Journals] [SIS Review]
... to shine'; for it is the same word as lucina, and therefore in our country Juno Lucina is invoked in childbirth, as is Diana in her manifestation as Lucifera (the light-bringer) among the Greeks. She is also called Diana Omnivaga (wide-wandering), not from her hunting, but because she is counted one of the seven planets or wanderers' (Vagari) She was called Diana because she made a sort of day in the night-time. She is invoked to assist at the birth of children, because the period of gestation is either occasionally seven, or more usually nine lunar revolutions, and these are called menses (months), because they are measured ...
655. Velikovsky's Dreamwork [Journals] [Aeon]
... detail and merely referred to small fragments of three or four others. Grinstein, on the other hand, claimed to have examined nineteen dreams that Freud experienced between 1895 and 1900, but he erred in his count by including Freud's dream about "His Mother and the Bird-Beaked Figures," which dated from the early 1860s when Freud was only seven or eight years old. There were also two complete dreams that Velikovsky had analyzed in detail, and fragments of others, which Grinstein, despite his larger count, ignored altogether. It could be that both analysts, in attempting to deal with Freud's primal work, were dealing with very strong repressive forces within themselves, forces which Heinz ...
656. "As Above, So Below" Earthquakes, Volcanoes, and Straight-Line Phenomena [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... are a consistent feature of volcano locations, seen best on North Island, New Zealand, and in many other places (Figures 4, 5, 6). In many instances earthquake foci can be superimposed upon volcano locations, a fact known for some time (Figure 7). Terado and Hiyabe [1927:60J noted that "seven earthquakes lie on a line inclined about 10 degrees against the parallel of latitude near 35 degrees N." Shand [1938:80), speaking of volcanoes, added; "What is particularly striking in these and many other instances of linear arrangements is that the interval between adjacent members of group tends to be" very nearly constant ...
657. Perception and Ancient Astronomy [Journals] [Horus]
... changes in the energy levels of the stimulus are required before an individual can perceive a noticeable difference. In the middle range, smaller increases or decreases in stimulus energy are required. Because the total range of visible starlight is at the lower extreme of the energy scale, the subjective division in perception is fairly coarse, delineating only six or seven general levels of difference between the brightest and dimmest stars. The net effect on perception is that not only do the stars appear in a predictable sequence but they seem to aggregate in time as discrete populations, adding exponentially to the visible population as each new range of sensitivity is reached. [The contemporary visual magnitude scale reflects this perceptual ...
658. Magnetic Models of the Polar Configuration [Journals] [Aeon]
... ) The cometary appearance of Venus in its circumaxial orbit. (27) It is likely that Venus, moving in the magnetic field of Saturn similarly to the present motion of Io about Jupiter, like Io, generated a visible flux tube connecting it to the upper surface of Saturn's atmosphere, the conductive plasma sheath. (2 ) The seven small bodies. Some renderings of the polar configuration show seven small round bodies of roughly equal sizes silhouetted against the central, circular, less brightly glowing part of Saturn. (28) In view of the possible translucency, approaching transparency, of the zone in which they were seen from Earth, these bodies may have been orbiting the ...
659. Syria and Ugarit [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... Hittite ally at Kadesh, and when four or five years later Ramses II again advanced into Syria, Aleppo revolted against the Hittites only to be crushed by Muwatallis. Aleppo and its associates signed a treaty of submission. In Ramses II and His Time60 Velikovsky lumps the reigns of Muwatallis and his son (Urhi-Teshup) into a total span of seven years, in direct conflict with Hattusilis III's statement that he "suffered the insults of Urhi-Teshub for seven years."61 Velikovsky's chronology would allow a few months at most for the rule of Urhi-Teshub. It would seem that under the terms of Velikovsky's revision a number of states in Syria lie dormant from the Amarna to just before the ...
660. On the Survival of Velikovsky's Thesis in 'Ages in Chaos' [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... event. There may well have been a period of time between this and the appearance of evidence for the cultural phase of the conquest. The Israelite conquest is absolutely unique to the history of Palestine. At the time of Abraham the territory was occupied by ten peoples who are listed by name.[28] At the time of Joshua seven of these ten peoples were still there, again listed by name. [29] There certainly was no such complete turnover of occupants at any time during this interval to match the biblical account. And there was none later. Neither the Assyrians nor the Persians occupied the territory following their conquests. So also was the event absolutely unique ...
