... on marine invertebrates and the evidence from terrestrial vertebrates is far less clear, except that for the dinosaurs at the Cretaceous-Tertiary boundary. Terrestrial plants appear not to have suffered worldwide mass extinctions, although extensive regional extinction events did occur, most notably at the Permian-Triassic, Triassic-Jurassic and Cretaceous-Tertiary boundaries. Even the marine invertebrate record is equivocal, because stage-level stratigraphic evidence of these animals does not betray compelling association with known impact events [20]. Large-scale volcanism, acting through climatic change, would be required seriously to disturb the biosphere. Episodes of flood-basalt eruption might manage the job, and indeed large-scale flood basalt volcanism did occur at the close of the Permian period (in Siberia) and ...
322. Early Historic Man - Catastrophism and Calendars [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... abrupt? And it can be shown that they were abrupt, because now we pass from palaeoclimatology to archaeology. Archaeology shows us that historical periods have always arrived at their end in catastrophic conditions, and no-one more than Claude Schaeffer (who was a friend of mine, whom I have known very well) has shown in his book, Stratigraphie Comparee which he published in 1948. Not only in his own excavations, but he did a little tour round the world, or at least three-quarters of the world - the whole Near East, from Egypt until China - and he arrived at the conclusion that the Early Bronze, the Middle Bronze and the recent or Late Bronze, ...
323. Reviews [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... argument, even on its own, is virtually unassailable. Concomitant with the loss of the Chaldaean cities was the loss of the Chaldaean language. Yet against this painful loss was the great gain of the Sumerian tongue, previously unknown. Heinsohn supports his Sumerian/Chaldaean equation with detailed arguments from the lives of Sumerian kings, and with the stratigraphy of southern Mesopotamia. Ibbi-Sin, last king of Ur, who was taken in bonds to Anshan in Persia, is equated with Nabonidus, last king of Chaldaea/Babylonia, who was also taken in bonds to Anshan. Other detailed parallels are considered. As regards stratigraphy, Heinsohn notes that old Sumerian' remains, supposedly dating from ...

... other criticisms of the Heinsohn theories)? Well, I can tell you SIS is not suppressing them: none have been received from Heinsohn! The matter of not responding to pertinent objections does not end there. I was less than impressed to hear from Gunnar's own lips at the Nottingham Meeting in autumn 1988 that nobody had refuted him on stratigraphy: when reminded of Lester Mitcham's article in Workshop 1988:1 and in particular of the stratigraphy of Ashur and Babylon (to mention just two sites) Gunnar denied all knowledge of this article. I am now informed by Dwardu Cardona that he has documentary evidence to show that Gunnar was being economical with the truth' on this occasion ...
325. Velikovsky, Fundamentalism and the Revised Chronology [Journals] [Aeon]
... doubts aside, until testimony from another source finally tipped the balance in Heinsohn's favour. Yehoshua Etzion is a violinist with the Jerusalem Symphony and an amateur historian with a solid understanding of archaeology. From what I know of his forthcoming book The Lost Bible, I can tell you that Etzion will be making a major contribution to our understanding of stratigraphy in the land of Israel. Of particular importance will be Etzion's revelations about the Iron Age, and where to look for Persian strata, which are missing not only in Mesopotamia but in major sites in Israel, as well. In early 1988, during an exchange of letters with Etzion, I asked him what he thought of Heinsohn's ...
326. Letters [Journals] [SIS Review]
... [1 ], with which it is closely associated. Michael C. Reade Checkendon, Oxon. A Twist of Time In his recent article A Survey of the Archaeological Evidence for a Revised Chronology' (C &CR 2000:1 , pp. 22-29), John Bimson compares the chronologies of James and Rohl in relation to the stratigraphy of some Palestinian sites. His conclusion is that the chronology of James fits the stratigraphy better than that of Rohl. I would agree with this and with the conclusion that Ramesses III is the biblical Shishak'. However why should this identification of Shishak' produce a more accurate chronology than one based on Ramesses II = Shishak' - ...

328. The Patchwork Pentateuch [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... of the JEPDR hypothesis (using Friedman's modified order - P before D) that in examining a single story, John Bimson has reached the same conclusion without reference to the Higher Criticism. (Bimson is a force to be reckoned with in this area. I had almost abandoned Ages in Chaos Vol. I, until I read his Revised Stratigraphy' paper, arguably the jewel in the crown of the Glasgow Conference Proceedings [15]. In his Cambridge paper, he does rely too heavily on the Redactor's suggestions of ancient and pure monotheism. I Kings 11:7 & II Kings 23:10 make it obvious that, to give just one example of several, the ...

... . It was argued that in global catastrophes of such dimensions no stalactites would have remained unbroken, but within one year after the atomic explosion, stalactites grew in the Gnome cavern, New Mexico: All nature's processes have been speeded up a billionfold. '[ 51] Claude F. A. Schaeffer of College de France, in his Stratigraphie Comparée [52] on which he worked not knowing of my simultaneous efforts, came to the conclusion that the Ancient East, as documented by every excavated place from Troy to the Caucasus, Persia, and Palestine-Syria, underwent immense natural paroxysms, unknown in modern annals of seismology; cultures were terminated, empires collapsed, trade ceased, ...
