... occurred before that of the marine life [9 ]. Fossils of foraminifera are much smaller and much more numerous than those of dinosaurs: at marine sites, foraminifer fossils are found with an average spacing of a fraction of a millimetre, whereas at Hell Creek there is an average of one dinosaur fossil per 1.1 metres of the stratigraphic column [9 ,22]. Hence, statistically, the extinction of the dinosaurs was likely to have occurred some considerable time after the death of the most recent T. rex specimen found at Hell Creek, and quite possibly at a time coincident with the iridium anomaly. (As an analogy, try working out the exact position ...
12. The Thirteenth Theory of the Hyksos [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... Asian realm of the Hyksos. Neither comparative stratigraphy and archaeology (architecture, pottery, small finds etc) nor palaeography and the evaluation of original historiographical source material has been applied to check possible Asian alter egos of the Hyksos. II. Comparative stratigraphy of the Hyksos What does comparative stratigraphy mean for the Hyksos of Syro-Palestine's Middle Bronze Age? Stratigraphically and, therefore, also historically they immediately preceded the Mitanni/Hurrians of the Late Bronze Age. If the Hyksos originated in Mesopotamia, as is suggested by their being a mixture of Semites and Hurrians, their Mesopotamian alter ego must have preceded the Late Bronze Age Mitanni/Hurrians between the Euphrates and the Tigris in very much the ...

... particular A.V .Khabakov, P.N .Kropotkin, V.P .Nekhoroshev, and V.N .Shimansky for fruitful discussion and valuable remarks. I also thank Mrs. V. Grudina for translation of this paper. 1. Glaciations and Epochs of Climatic Cooling Of the several major glaciations that are interred from the stratigraphic record, the oldest occurred during the Mesoprotozoic, about 2500-2300 MY ago (Salop, 1973). Proof of this lies in fossil moraines tillites and related formations) reported from North America (Huronian and Animikie Supergroups, Hurwitz and Libby-Creek Groups), from South Africa (Government- Reef and Griquatown Formation), from Europe (Sariolian ...
14. Chapter 9 Mesopotamian Stratigraphy [Journals] [Velikovskian]
... CONTENTS 272 VELIKOVSKIAN Vol. VI, Nos. 1, 2, 3 CHAPTER 9 MESOPOTAMIAN STRATIGRAPHY There are two approaches to Heinsohn and Sweeney's chronology with regard to the stratigraphical record. The first was presented by Jan Sammer: "Heinsohn's is not an abstruse argument about the succession of ancient dynasties. If Heinsohn is right, the entire history of the development of civilization will have to be written anew. The validity of his scheme will emerge in short order, since the theory is highly falsifiable: at every stage the double existence of historical figures and events must match, allowing only for the vicissitudes of historical preservation. Once the overall historical scheme has been declared, not ...

... which Dr Ransom has assembled less accessible, and secondly, there are an unduly large number of irritating misprints (Professor Danjon appears several times as Dajon, to take just one example). However these points will no doubt be dealt with in the future editions of the work which will certainly be required. AGER'S NEO-CATASTROPHISM THE NATURE OF THE STRATIGRAPHICAL RECORD by D. V. Ager (Dent, 1973) JAN TERASMAE THIS REVIEW, ORIGINALLY WRITTEN FOR PENSÉE, WAS EXCLUDED FROM THE FIRST ISSUE OF "CATASTROPHIST GEOLOGY" FOR REASONS OF SPACE. IT WAS FORWARDED TO US BY HAN KLOOSTERMAN AND IS INCLUDED HERE BY KIND PERMISSION OF DR KLOOSTERMAN AND THE AUTHOR. The history of ...
16. Hazor and the anachronisms in the chronology of the Ancient Near East [Journals] [SIS Review]
... were incapable of producing their own texts, they indeed looked as if they had never recovered from Joshua's blow. The specialists faced a dilemma. They were looking for 1st millennium texts and they indeed did find texts in the 1st millennium strata - a happy sensation. However, chronological schemes forced them to drop their rare finds down into Hazor's stratigraphical abyss much deeper down - and there was no consolation. The 1st millennium strata did not reveal any other texts which the archaeologists could keep for these Iron Age strata. They took pride in Hazor's extremely high age but felt somewhat embarrassed about its illiteracy in the period of the People of the Book'. Yet their problems did not ...
17. The Restoration of Ancient History [Articles]
... .. It seems that the Persians did not develop integrally conceived, coherent, completely organized, large- scale planning schemes before the Seleucid and Sassanian periods when they came under Hellenistic and Roman influence, respectively" (P . Lampl, Cities and Planning in the ancient Near East, London, 1968, p. 117ff.).

18. Old-Babylonian and Persian Terra-Cotta Reliefs [Journals] [Aeon]
... the beginning of the second millennium BCE are desk-fabricated duplications of the well-known periods of the first millennium BCE. (1 ) Thus, I claim that the Sargonic Akkadians (2400 BCE onwards) correspond to the pre-Medish Assyrians (750 BCE onwards), who should not be mixed up with the Sargonids (conventionally dated to the same period but stratigraphically belonging to the Persian period). (2 ) The Neo-Sumerians (2150 BCE onwards) correspond to the Neo-Babylonian/Late Chaldeans (625 BCE onwards), whereas the Old-Babylonian Empire of the Mardu (2000 BCE onwards) represents the Babylonian satrapy of the Persian Empire (540 BCE onwards). The Persians were also known as Mardians ...
19. Heinsohn and the Hyksos (An Answer to Martin Sieff) [Journals] [Aeon]
... - was really the Assyrian Empire made more sense than attributing this profound influence to a relatively obscure desert tribe. On the other hand, the Hyksos period is firmly anchored in the Middle Bronze. Assyrians of the empire period were firmly placed in the Iron Age. How could Heinsohn hope to bridge this enormous archaeological gap? With Heinsohn, stratigraphic evidence comes first. If he was wrong about the Hyksos, Heinsohn said, somewhere in Egypt we should find archaeological indications of Iron Age Assyria preceded by Middle Bronze Hyksos. Stratified sites are not common in Egypt but at the very least there should be firm evidence of Assyrian conquests in the 8th and 7th centuries BCE. The Hyksos ...
20. 'Worlds in Collision' After Heinsohn [Journals] [SIS Review]
... since 1984 is so complex that I shall first summarise his theses which are critical to Worlds in Collision. I shall also review the main events in Worlds in Collision, considering the civilisations whose records Velikovsky uses to provide the main evidence for each event. Heinsohn's methodology involves respect for stratigraphy and scepticism about dark ages' posited in contradiction to stratigraphic evidence. He has applied it to evidence from the Iron Age to Neanderthal Man, with a resulting compression of time which makes even a Velikovskian reel: the transition from Bronze to Iron Age occurs around -600, from Neolithic to Bronze around -1000, from Neanderthal to Modern Man around -2000 [5 ]. His only dark ages' ...
