452. Floods and Tides [Books] [de Grazia books]
... . Thereupon add all the other high-energy forms: deluges, exoterrestrial impacts, volcanism, and so on: it is a wonder that the crust of the Earth is not a homogenous finely ground mixture of all past life and surfacing rocks. Now add great catastrophes elaborated in this book and the homogenous mixture should be guaranteed. That is, stratigraphy is hardly understandable by following uniformitarian principles, if we acknowledge what scientists have all along been discovering, but more recently have become acutely aware of. Even if, as Ager writes, "the changes do not take place gradually but as sporadic bursts, as a series of minor catastrophes," the strata of the Earth do not ...
453. Monitor [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... that the Flood occurred c.1700 BC. Part II attacks the use of Manetho as a sequence of dynasties, but it deals mostly with the views of nineteenth century Egyptologists, which is interesting but not so relevant. Part III is a strong attack on Sothic dating and makes interesting reading. Part IV dismisses radiocarbon dating and VI dismisses stratigraphy! Part V tries to show that the Amarna Letters should be placed in the late 7th century BC and that Assuruballit therein is the Assuruballit II at the end of the Assyrian Empire c.610 BC. Heinsohn fans will recognise this equation but, unlike Heinsohn, he goes on to equate Assuruballit with Akhenaten! Canaanite origin for Israelites ...
454. Letters [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... gap in time between the Old-Akkadian period and the Hyksos period, or even a smaller gap as may be acceptable to other revisionists, the identity of Old-Akkadian and Hyksos will be anathema as will Heinsohn's use of the name Hyksos' in connection with stratum VII at Alalakh. However, given Heinsohn's equation of Mitanni with Medes and the fact that stratigraphically the Old-Akkadian period precedes the Mitanni/Medes period, coupled with the foregoing observations of such as Frankfort, van der Brink, Kaplan and Yadin, there seems every good reason why Heinsohn should use the designation Hyksos' in relation to Alalakh stratum VII. There is no other way of explaining the otherwise anomalous bull-men seals in this stratum ...
455. How the Gods Fly [Books] [de Grazia books]
... "Battle of the Gods" resolves into a battle of the space-charge sheaths. The tertiary effects are heating of the bodies and their atmospheres, resulting both from electric particle bombardment and from atmospheric, hydrospheric, and lithospheric shearing friction. New levels of surface crust are developed on all of the bodies, new "scar tissue," new stratigraphy. The effects upon the biosphere are grave. They have been described time and time again by the ancient observers, by early students of the Deluge such as Whiston, Newton, and Boulanger, by modern catastrophists such as Cuvier, Donnelly and Beaumont, by contemporaries such as Patton and by Kelly and Dachille [9 ], Lane ...
... of the Theran wave came down dramatically from a terrifyingly destructive 600 feet to an eminently surfable 30 feet." A 30 foot wave can neither account for great destruction nor the parting of the Sea of Passage. Bernard Newgrosh deals with the violence of the Thera eruption: "Over Thera .. .[ astronomers] come into difficulties with stratigraphy, for they see the eruption of Thera as both a part of and a consequence of a world-wide disturbance that took part at the time of the Exodus. If they had read their own references carefully they would have noticed that one of them states quite clearly that the Thera eruption took place in the Late Minoan IA period. Not ...
... in Collision, Earth in Upheaval and Ages in Chaos, the following, "I hope you [Velikovsky] will go on with your research. You are working in the right direction and time will help to show the reality of global or near global catastrophes. Already continental or near continental catastrophes cannot be doubted as I showed in my stratigraphical work in the Near East. It will take time for your findings and mine to be acknowledged. This may make us sometimes impatient. But it will stir us to more work and more research." Signed "Claude F.A . Schaeffer."1 Professor Etienne Droiton, historian and world authority on Egyptology also wrote a ...

... by the action of man. Far from it, because compared with the vastness of these all-embracing crises and their profound effects, the exploits of conquerors...would appear only insignificant." One of the greatest upheavals, according to Schaeffer, brought an end to the Middle Kingdom of Egypt and to Middle Bronze civilization in general. Stratigraphie Comparee et chronologie de l'Asie Occidentale (London, 1948). The Minoan B script writings unearthed on Crete and in the Peloponnesus are Greek. (Forum lecture, Princeton Graduate College, October 14, 1953) In November, 1953, Michael Ventris made his initial decipherment of Linear B known. Fifty of the world's most noted Hellenist ...
459. Why Pensee? [Journals] [Pensee]
... "affair" by H. L. Armstrong (department of physics, Queen's University); and a critique of the claimed experimental proofs of relativity by Dr. G. Burniston Brown (department of physics, University College, London). Professor Jan Terasmae, geologist from Brock University (Ontario), will review The Nature of the Stratigraphic Record by Derek Ager. Ager, born and raised a uniformitarian geologist, finally revolted, proposing to replace traditional doctrines with "uniformitarian catastrophism." His newly released book will surely send tremors through the geological community. Our expanding review of the literature will also include, among others, Dorothy B. Vitaliano's Legends of the Earth: ...
