... up a picture of some strange event about the time of the end of Early Bronze (EB), probably the cause of its end. SIS contributors (notably Moe Mandelkehr, serialised in SISR V:3 [1980/81], C&CR 1987, 1988) and conventional academics (e .g . C Schaeffer, Stratigraphie Comparée, 1948) have occasionally noted the widespread nature of upheavals and speculated on some common cause. Fresh impetus came with the work of Harvey Weiss, excavator of Tell Leilan, a major ancient city in northern Mesopotamia. He found that the end of the Akkadian period (roughly corresponding to the end of EB) was marked by ...
412. Forum [Journals] [SIS Review]
... , a dynasty that followed closely in time the Davidic/Solomonic dynasty. Velikovsky pointed out the name Solomon' in the EA letters, in the twice-mentioned Bît Šulmâni that can be read as House of Solomon' [7 ]. This is all consistent evidence for the accuracy of biblical history. Underlying the revision I follow is a solid stratigraphy, notably for the historically unique eras of the Conquest and King Solomon. The whole complex has become so attractive that even certain conventional scholars, like Professor Anati and Dr. Cohen, are now drawn to it in part. With all this in mind, it a pity that Birgit Liesching allowed herself to be so easily swayed in ...
413. Society News [Journals] [SIS Review]
... John Crowe Notes 1. Note that Petrie, History of Egypt, 1914, pp. 228-232, explains in detail how this text has been misread and is corrupted and gives a revised and shortened reading of the genealogy. 2. More evidence of this kind may be found in Bimson's paper Can there be a Revised Chronology without a Revised Stratigraphy', presented at the SIS Glasgow Conference in 1978. In this Paper he showed that from an archaeological standpoint, the Iron Age could be lowered by five centuries to accommodate Velikovsky's identification of Shishak with Thutmose III. I understand, however, that he no longer holds this view. 3. See C&CR 1997:2 ...
414. Science, Technology and the Chronology of the Ancient World [Journals] [Aeon]
... to be removed from history at this point, but an even longer span would have to be eliminated at an earlier time. The period they targeted was the Middle Bronze Age, corresponding to the 700-year interval between the domination of northern Mesopotamia and Syria by the Akkadians and the Mitannians. Taking his lead from Heinsohn, Ginenthal writes: "Stratigraphy at Tell Munbaqa in Syria has been examined by a geologist. The geology incontestably shows that where the established historians placed a 700- to 800-year settlement gap between the Old Akkadians and the Mitanni, there is none. The 700 to 800 years of Mesopotamian history for this time is a fiction." [60] That seems straightforward ...
415. Citing the Work of Others: A Critique [Journals] [Aeon]
... of Velikovsky. In his discourse/rebuttal re the Dark Age of Greece, he rightly criticized Peter James for the way he treated Velikovsky's work. In James' opus magnus, the following odious statement appears: "Sadly, while he pointed the way to a solution by challenging Egyptian chronology, Velikovsky understood little of archaeology and nothing of stratigraphy." [33] More sadly, in the same work, James fails to cite a single work by Velikovsky except for Ages in Chaos which he misdates to 1953. Neither does he reference even one appropriate contribution to Pensée, KRONOS, or SISR. For James, as for Sweeney, it is as though Pensée and KRONOS ...
416. The Bedrock of Myth [Articles]
... tilt, precession, and wobble, are only incidental factors int eh Ice Age successions, and not at all the root cause. Recent research has shown the changes in climate to be far too abrupt for such a limited theory as that of the Milankovic cycles, which is out of joint with and takes inadequate account of additional factors. Stratigraphic considerations demand over 200,000 years for the Holstein or penultimate Interglacial, vastly more than the Milankovic scheme could allow. Each Interglacial was warmer than the succeeding, the last having been warmer than the present. Preglacial climats were still warmer, and apparently without such frequent oscillations as the Milankovic scheme would demand. What remains as a ...

418. Foreword and Introduction to Ages in Chaos [Velikovsky]
... read Ages in Chaos and suggested that I try to prove my thesis on archaeological art material. I followed his advice, and the second volume of this work carries chapters on "Ceramics and Chronology" and "Metallurgy and Chronology". in addition to a number of scattered sections dealing with the problems of ancient art, paleography, and stratigraphical archaeology. He read later drafts, too, and showed a great interest in the progress of my work. Neither subscribing to my thesis nor rejecting it, he kept an open mind, believing that only objective and free discussion could clarify the issue. Neither he nor Dr. Federn nor anyone else shares any responsibility whatsoever for any ...
419. Chapter 13 Scythian Princes in the Royal Tombs of Ur [Journals] [Velikovskian]
... that Cardona appears to uphold. This author accepts Cardona's challenge above and will employ all forms of evidence to respond to that challenge, holding that the scientific and technological facts greatly support Heinsohn, as do the historical facts. According to Heinsohn, "The magnificent Sumerian' vassal graves of the so-called Royal Cemetery at Ur, which according to stratigraphy must be placed at the end of the early dynastic period, have an uncanny resemblance to the graves of the Scythian princes, dated 1500 years later."1 Here Heinsohn clearly maintains that the Scythians are not Sumerians, but vassals of the Assyrians who set them over Ur as local city rulers. In the spring and summer of ...
420. Ras Shamra (Ages in Chaos) [Velikovsky]
... we find that there were not two separate and coinciding time clues in the ceramics and bronze from Crete and Mycenae and in Egyptian pieces of art, but ultimately only a single one: the timetables of Crete and Mycenae are built upon the chronology of Egypt. This will also be shown in more detail in the chapter in which problems of stratigraphic archaeology are explored. 1. Directed by Claude F. A. Schaeffer and reported in Syria, Revue dart oriental et darchéologie, 1929ff. Reprints of the first seven reports were published together under the title Les Fouilles de Minet-el-Beida et de Ras-Shamra, 1929-36. 2. E. Forrer, Syria, Revue dart oriental et darchéologie, ...
