... Radiocarbon dating Pottery dating Metallurgy as it is applies to pottery dating, as well as to carving and inscribed granite and diorite Egyptian and Mesopotamian stratigraphy are also analyzed along with the evidence of: erosion agronomy climatology agriculture glass technology domestication of the horse and ass linguistics forensic anthropology musical instrumentation of the hepatonic diatonic scale And much more! Published Mesopotanian stratigraphical research, based on geology and archaeology now indisputably prove 700 to 800 years were added to history by the archaeologists. Linguistics related to Hebrew, Greek and Hittite along with agronomy, climatology, irrigation, burial customs and artifacts, domestication of the horse and ass and other topics all converge to indicate that history is much shorter than what ...
102. What has Happened to Worzel's Deep-Sea Ash? [Journals] [Catastrophist Geology]
... refractive index of 1.500. No crystalline minerals were detected. No regional trend in thickness was found. Because of this remarkable uniformity, both Worzel and Ewing e.a . were of the opinion that its extension was probably much greater, and quite possibly world-wide. The ash appeared to be similar, in composition and in. stratigraphic position, to an ash layer found in cores taken from the Gulf of Mexico, which had been tentatively correlated with the lower ash in Piggot's North Atlantic cores. Still another similar ash layer had been described from cores taken off the coasts of Peru and Chile, as far south as 25o. Ewing concluded that "If this suggestive ...
103. Rohl's Chronology - Implications for Mediterranean? [Journals] [SIS Internet Digest]
... moving the eruption into Middle Minoan IIIB, yet the town of Akrotiri, destroyed and sealed by the eruption, was clearly culturally LM IA - according to the pottery found at the site. Moreover, pumice from the eruption of Thera has recently (since the Thera Congress which approved the "scientific" date) been found in a clear stratigraphical context in the Eastern Egyptian Delta city of Avaris and at the Sinai site of Tell el-Hebua. The horizon of the pumice was unequivocally dated to the period from Ahmose I to Amenhotep II. Thus the "scientific" date is over 120 years earlier than the conventional date for the early 18th Dynasty in Egypt - when the archaeological evidence ...
... be drawn with extreme care. .. . The second kind of problem in archaeology is more frequently concerned with later cultural material found in situations having physical characteristics which are almost wholly due to the fact of human occupation. In such locations stratification is present but it is frequently impossible to identify it. Consequently, archaeologists augment scarce, definite stratigraphic data with inferences from internal evidence, such as the evolution of styles of pottery, changes in the form of tools, the shape of houses, etc. The resulting chronological framework is of course very insecure and is recognized as such by any reputable archaeologist. The use of such must strain the credulity of investigators in allied fields, ...

... for the K/T extinction) or complex, involving diverse factors? For example, the combination of climate change, mass migration, war and economic collapse would undoubtedly be worse than one of those factors acting alone. As in the analogous mass-extinction of life debate, the SIS meeting demonstrated that such questions are in principle resolvable by detailed stratigraphical analyses and investigations in the field. Continuing the astronomical theme, Duncan Steel (Spaceguard Australia) gave an ingenious interpretation of the earliest phases of construction of Stonehenge, pointing out that according to the giant comet hypothesis, episodes of enhanced terrestrial bombardment are expected to occur when the orbit of the Encke comet dust trail intersects that of the ...
106. Notices [Journals] [Kronos]
... constellations. Sieff's article, in particular, is a major pioneering effort; a Review Extra by Ralph Juergens- "Galactic Space Charge and Stellar Energy"- raises some key questions about the nature of the Sun and the whole subject of cosmic electrical energy. Book Reviews of "Peoples of the Sea" and "The Nature of the Stratigraphical Record" constitute only a part of the additional material. A future issue of the S.I .S . Review will be devoted exclusively to Ages in Chaos and will deal with such subjects as the Papyrus Ipuwer and El-Amarna letters. Subscription and Associate Membership cost (which includes the S.I .S . Review) is ...
107. Society News (AGM 2000) [Journals] [SIS Review]
... in catastrophism had been rekindled by Alvarez's book about the death of the dinosaurs, in particular the observation that in addition to the Iridium layer there was a carbon layer, indicating that there had been a catastrophic fire storm It reminded Han of another carbon layer found across northern Europe. Ager had mentioned in his 1973 book The Nature of the Stratigraphic Record that along shores and steepsided valleys in southern England there was a clear carbon layer followed by a snail layer dating from the end of the last Ice Age. Although Ager had suggested that this could be taken as an indication of a universal conflagration, when Han tackled him about it, asking if there were other examples which had ...
108. Updating Schaeffer's Destruction Inventory [Books] [de Grazia books]
... in the time of the reign of Amenhotep IV or Akhnaton, an earthquake of great violence ravaged several cities on the Syrio-palestinian coast as well as in the interior of the countries. In Asia Minor also the urban centers (Tarse and Boghazkeui and Troy) suffered damage in the same period. This fifth perturbation is very distinctly marked in the stratigraphic sections of most of the sites explored in these countries. From about 1250 or 1225, the sixth and last great catastrophe fell upon the civilizations of the Bronze Age in Western Asia. Vast ethnic movements are launched again of which one, probably the most important, proceeds across the Syrio-Palestinian corridor and along the coast toward Egypt. Professor ...

... a very short episode of high temperature, we are more inclined to assign it to a temporary non-linear behavior of the species in question. Examples of such behavior are known and will be discussed below". The core under study "has failed to reveal any evidence of sedimentary disturbance, including turbidite deposition." In The Nature of the Stratigraphical Record (Halsted Press, 1973), Ager relates the following on page 40: "Along the chalk downs in southern England there are a number of short, steepsided dry valleys traditionally blamed on the devil (for example, Devil's Dyke near Brighton). These have been gouged out of the hills, probably under periglacial conditions, ...
110. Forum [Journals] [SIS Review]
... of a revised chronology, can only be satisfactorily dealt with by diverging from the model given in Velikovsky's sequel volumes. Thus, for instance, John Bimson's "revised stratigraphy" for Palestine would remove the major objection in category (A ) pointed to by Professor William Stiebing Jr in Pensée (3 ); but at the same time the stratigraphic evidence clearly rules out dates as late as the 6th and 4th centuries for Ramesses II and III (4 ). With category (B ), any revised chronology faces the task of accommodating the synchronisms between kings of the Hittite Empire and kings of Assyria and Babylonia, known from the cuneiform correspondence preserved (5 ). This can ...
