... chronology, placed the end of the Middle Kingdom between 1750 BC and 1650 BC. He wrote, however: "La valeur des dates absolues adoptres par nous dépend, bien entendu, pour une part, du degré de précision obtenu dans le domaine des recherches sur les documents historiques utilisables pour la chronologie . . . .. . (Stratigraphie Comparie, p. 566). In Ages in Chaos I have shown why the end of the Middle Kingdom must be dated about 1500 BC. ...

Velikovsky has promised for the next issues of Pensee a series of chapters dealing with stratigraphic archaeology in various lands of the Ancient East, under the common title "Personal Tragedies in Archaeology. " "Again and again conscientious excavators, misled by a fallacious chronological scheme, saw their names and careers brought into disrepute, because the result of their excavations, whether in Egypt, or Palestine, or Syria, or Cyprus, ...
253. Introduction (Ramses II and his Time) [Velikovsky]
... Dynasty. Having exposed here the main theme of this volume, let me express the hope that every thoughtful reader will postpone judgment until he has considered the evidence in all its details, which range from ancient texts in cuneiform, hieroglyphics, and Hebrew, to autobiographies and portraits, to ancient topographical maps and plans of battle, to archaeological stratigraphy. The centuries both preceding and following(2 )the decades described in this volume constitute together, in the reconstruction of ancient history, a monolithic oneness. 1. The Seti I of the conventional chronology but Seti II of this construction. 2. The centuries preceding are the subject of my Ages in Chaos, Vol. I ...
254. Problems for Rohl's New Chronology [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... Kassite rule itself seems much too long for the amount of remains (conventionally about 400 years) and could probably lose a couple of centuries. The preceding period forms a well attested block including Hammurabi's First Dynasty at Babylon with corresponding rulers in Isin, Larsa, Uruk, Ashur, etc. Remains of this period also appear to be attested stratigraphically (e .g . Oates pp. 76ff, section titled Old Babylonian Cities'). At Babylon itself the Hammurabi level would be below the present water-table (Oates p. 76) and therefore inaccessible to archaeologists. The Sumerian language continued in use, alongside Babylonian, through Hammurabi's dynasty and was still used by the Kassites ( ...
255. Catastrophic Events & Mass Extinctions [Journals] [SIS Internet Digest]
... Permian, indicated a much shorter time frame for this event than earlier data had suggested, with significant associated geochemical anomalies. The cause for this global catastrophe is currently unknown, but speculations center on massive volcanism or cometary impact. Other boundaries and short-term events (e .g ., late Devonian, Triassic-Jurassic, late Eocene) in the stratigraphic record of the Earth are now receiving unprecedented attention. Thus, we feel that the time has come to summarize and discuss the current state of knowledge of the character and causes of mass extinctions and catastrophic events in the history of our planet. ...

258. Letters to the Editor C&AH 3:2 [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... is indeed complete historiographic chaos. We would do well to reconstruct this sphere of ancient history first, before attempting revisions of the revision. With this in mind, and collaborating in an 8-semester course of lectures (begun 1980) on Near Eastern history from Neolithic to Persian times, we have developed a Near East data bank based on comparative stratigraphy: 65 sites with archaeological levels described according to conventional chronology are now entered. The computer program, however, permits different linkages and interdependencies for part or all of the data.6 From the cylinder seal work another point, possibly useful in reconstructing contemporary astronomical conditions, became apparent. It is the observation that a considerable number of ...
259. Science Frontiers [Journals] [SIS Internet Digest]
... This book is one of the classics of catastrophe literature. Evolutionary Geology and the New Catastrophism by G.M . Price. 1926, 352 pp., $18.95p. Price was an early catastrophist at a time when uniformitarianism ruled with an iron fist. He systematically and rationally presented some of geology's major anomalies- particularly in stratigraphy. Chapter titles include: The Modern Onion-Coat Theory; "Deceptive Conformity"; Upside Down; Extinct Species; Skipping; Graveyards; Degeneration; Fossil Men. Price was a creationist, but his book is devoid of theology. The Aerial World by G. Hartwig 1886, 560 pp., $26.95p. 37 chapters ...
260. Extinction And Survival [Books]
... natural environments. The extent of destruction of species would of course depend upon the magnitude of the catastrophe. in some cases there may well have been survivors. They would be not the `fittest', but the `lucky'. For them, the problem was one of ability to adapt themselves to the new environmental conditions. Palaeontological stratigraphy shows that even these`lucky ones' were generally not able to adapt themselves, and that they died out more or less rapidly. It was not a question of phylogeronty; it was simply the fact that the new conditions presented to them made physical survival impossible. 5. Geological strata are generally dated by the percentage of known ...
