... geomagnetic field.] Earth in Upheaval came to the attention of Claude Schaeffer, professor at College de France and excavator of Ras Shamra in Syria. Schaeffer's independently conceived theory that ancient Middle Eastern civilizations had suffered simultaneous natural catastrophes on five occasions in the third and second millennia B.C . had been set forth in a 1948 volume, Stratigraphie Comparée et Chronologie de l'Asie Occidental. [Velikovsky published an abstract of his own thesis in Scripta Academica in 1945.] Schaeffer wrote enthusiastically to Velikovsky and the two began a correspondence that has continued ever since. In 1957 Velikovsky met Schaeffer in Switzerland and again in Athens. Oedipus and Akhnaton, a book that presents Velikovsky's identification of ...
482. Evidence of Careenings of the Globe [Books]
... Ice Cap - Recent Continuous Growth of Ice Cap - New Continuous Creation of Earth Materials by Photosynthesis - New Much of the mystery previously connected with earth strata, and the problem why successive types of fossils appear therein, are fully explained when these new discoveries are added to those reported by Cuvier. A communication from the Chief, Paleontology and Stratigraphy Branch, U.S . Geological Survey, states: "The paleontological collections of the U.S . Geological Survey verify that in some localities in the United States and its territories rock strata containing alternating horizons of marine and non-marine fossils do occur:" Again the usefulness of identifying the different species of fossils in each earth stratum ...

484. The Oceans [Journals] [Velikovskian]
... . Ransom showed: "In 1970 an article was published [in Science] about the recent sedimentary history of the Black Sea. A number of core samples taken at intervals for a distance of over 600 miles, showed that three distinct sedimentary units were correlated throughout that entire distance on the sea bottom. In most cores three `abrupt stratigraphic changes' could be observed. [D . A. Ross, E. T. Degens, J. MacIlvaine, Science, Vol. 170, (1970), p. 63.] The date of these events were approximately 5,000, 3,400 and 900 B.C . The investigators claim that the ...
485. A Rage to Deny: The Roots of the Velikovsky Affair [Books]
... processes which have to include "episodicity" as well as "internal triggers" and "the recognition of external (extraterrestrial) triggers," (221) for "the evidence for sudden and violent events having occurred during the course of Earth history is strong." (222) When we add the evidence from fields like astronomy, stratigraphy and ancient history, a strong cross-disciplinary argument for catastrophism appears, but it has only advanced to the fringes of specialized debate. That it should take this long for these counter-indications to uniformitarianism to come to the surface in mainstream science illustrates that that concept is not simply an oppression in geology but has been a pernicious drag upon freedom of ...
486. Mammoth Update: A Reply to Ellenberger (Forum) [Journals] [Kronos]
... Fairbanks district of Alaska. These included the face and right forefoot of an immature woolly mammoth, nearly complete remains of a rabbit, a Iynx, a lemming (or vole), and marrow from a horse canon bone. The mammoth was estimated to be 21,000+ 1300 years old by carbon-14 dating. On the basis of stratigraphic evidence the lynx, rabbit, and lemming (or vole) were estimated to be 15,000-25,000 years old. The authors rehydrated tissue samples from each animal, processed the tissue to enable microscopic slides to be made, and studied the histologic structure by light microscopy. Reporting Zimmerman's and Tedford's findings, White states that " ...
