261. The Crescent II [Books]
... . Faber, examining ancient symbolism of the ship, wrote: "A heifer seems to have been adopted as perhaps the most usual emblem of the Ark .. . That the heifer was an emblem of the Ark appears from a very curious passage in The Etymological Magnum, the author of which informs us, that Theba, in the Syrian dialect, signified a heifer' .. . The import, however, of Theba, in the Hebrew language, is an ark'; and the only reason why a heifer was designated by the same appellation, was the circumstance of its being used as an arkite emblem."

... images of a twin-peaked mountain, states Jeremias. (32) In the primeval Tyre (paradise), according to the description of Nonnus, a "double rock" rises from the ocean. In its centre is an olive (the central sun) which automatically emits fire, setting it in a perpetual blaze. (33) The Syrian and Hittite great gods stand equally balanced upon two mountains. (34) In the beginning, according to a central Asiatic legend related by Uno Holmberg, "there was only water, from which the two great mountains emerged." (35) From the central mount of Hindu cosmology rise two secondary peaks to the right and left ...

... on the high daters'. This may also pave the way towards much lower dates for the end of MB which, in my opinion, continues beyond the time of Thutmose III (see below under Qatna). Qatna This is a major site in inland Syria, south of Hama, which is being excavated by German, Italian and Syrian teams. It has produced some very interesting finds and provides some evidence to make more precise the links between history and archaeology. In 2002 the Germans found, in a major destruction level, an archive of cuneiform clay tablets which was initially dated c. 1400 BC, apparently based on pottery dating. By January 2003 the tablets had ...

... which admittedly must seem at times rather like a snakepit to the non-specialist- I do not feel uncomfortable with the prospect of this relatively small anomaly. Further, in response to a specific point raised by Lowery, it is certainly possible for a nisbe ending to be added to a "group writing": cf. the example H3rwyw "Syrian"- .yw added to H3rw "Hurru," i.e ., "Syria"- quoted by Erman, Neuägyptische Grammatik, second edition, 104 (Anm. to 229). This is, of course, an example of the ending added to a masculine form rather than to the feminine termination, thus producing ...

... the precise force of the qualification of Belit of the palace' escapes us". Ibid., 227. To one aware of the root meaning of the god's "house" the title can hardly pose a mystery. The identity of "womb" and "house" occurs in every section of the globe. Simplicus reports that the Syrian goddess Derceto or Atargatis wes the habitation of the gods, just as Orphic doctrine styled Vesta the house of the gods. Faber, The Origins of Pagan Idolatry, III, 49. The Hindu Rig Veda states: "They conduct him to the hut of the consecrated; the hut of the consecrated". Keith, Rigveda Brahmanas ...

... ..; the system was briefly summarised in C&CR 2002:2 , p. 30). The mA III group is thought to date from about the time of Tiglath-pileser I (and presumably continuing into the reign of Ashur-bel-kala, his son) but Pfälzner's evidence for this dating is weak, being based on pottery at a Syrian site, found in a pit along with discarded inscriptions of Tiglath-pileser I's time. The mA III pottery period may also have continued into early Neo-Assyrian times, a period for which no pottery typology has ever been established. Is the tablet jar an mA III vessel and does it therefore confirm Pfälzner's dating of mA III? The top part ...

... gives it a full 550 years to run. He identifies Iron I as the Assyrian period, from 720 BC to 587 BC; Iron II as the Babylonian and Persian periods in Israel, from 587 BC to 333 BC; and Iron III as the period of Greek dominance starting with Alexander the Great, continuing through the conflicts between the Syrian Seleucid and Egyptian Ptolemaic empires, and ending with the Hasmonean revolt against Syria, all from 333 BC to 167 BC. Radical as this approach is, it solves many problems. The mystery of the "missing" Persian period- the dearth of remains from the Persian period- is resolved. Samaria, the Iron II city of Omri and ...

268. Trisms and Planetary Iconography [Journals] [Velikovskian]
... similar to the chicken-headed god of Figures 48a through g; it is all a matter of perspective and imagination. Also, the serpentine legs of the god depicted below seem to resemble the configuration found beneath the waist of Typhon-Set. Figure 48g Figure 49a Figure 49b Figures 49a and b, are my renditions of Gnostic cameo depictions of the ancient Syrian god, Abraxas. Note Abraxas' resemblance to the animal-like Yahweh. Two other gods- separated by vast geographical distances- resemble the chicken-headed god. One is known as Olukun, a god from the Benin River in Nigeria, the other is the Celtic god, Cernunnos. Figure 50, below, is my drawing of a bronze statue representing ...

... from the 4th or 5th century AD. Spatters appear among the magical symbols. This illustration may support myths claiming that gods like Hermes and Yahweh either invented the alphabet or introduced vowels into it.(15) Figure 96 Figure 97 Figure 98 Figure 96 is my sketch of a lintel from the Temple of Bel at Palmyra, an ancient Syrian city. Spatters and fleurets are indistinguishable. Figure 97 is my depiction of etchings from a picture stone unearthed in Gotland, Sweden, and dated close to 500 AD. A spatter appears on one side of a mercurius. The tree beneath this configuration may represent Yggdrasil, the world tree- a giant ash supporting the universe, according to ...

270. The End of Mitanni and Some Related Problems [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... . 97. As noted by James, p. 54, footnote 20. 98. Since the completion of this paper it has come to my attention (Peter James, "Some Notes on the Assuruballit Problem." SIS Review, Vol. IV, Part 1, pp. 18-22) that Velikovsky may have regarded Assuruballit as a Syrian ruler, rather than a king of Assyria. The king of Hanigalbat mentioned in Assuruballit's letters to Egypt would therefore have been Tushratta- although it is by no means certain that this was Velikovsky's solution, since he made no attempt to explain the references to Hanigalbat, either during the Amarna period or at the time of Hattusilis III. ...
