The rock in scriptions of Behistun and Per- sepolis are said to show Ahura Mazda thus represented.

... were seized with fear and fled as far as Egypt. Only Zeus stood firm before the monster; but entwined in the myriad coils of the serpents he fell into the hands of Typhoeus who cut the tendons of his hands and feet and imprisoned him in his den in Cilicia. Rescued by Hermes, Zeus renewed the struggle. With his thunderbolts he overwhelmed Typhoeus, who fled to Sicily, where under Etna the god crushed him." On WIC p.87- B, V quotes the Typhon legend from Apollodorus, which is virtually indistinguishable from the Typhoeus legend just quoted- in fact, it seems to be the same legend with the name Typhon replacing Typhoeus. But ...

23. Cosmic and Terrestrial Lightning [Books] [de Grazia books]
... SIX Cosmic and Terrestrial Lightning A powerful, highly developed and mysterious people of ancient Italy, the Etruscans, believed in the strictest set of relationships between the small Earth and the great and divine Universe [1 ]. They planned their cities astronomically, as did all early peoples, but, more specifically, worshiped lightning and gave "the thunderbolting god" Jupiter to the Romans. They founded a College of Lightning Arts (ars fulminum) at Visul. When a bolt of lightning struck, the ground became at that instant hallowed; no one might disturb it until priests made a site inspection and had concluded which of thirty types of lightning it was and what should be done ...

... with the color green in alchemical texts of the Middle Ages. (159) The relationship between the planet Venus and the color green or blue-green is also attested by certain words in various Indo-European languages. Consider, for example, the Latin word venetus- apparently cognate with Venus- signifying sea-green or blue. (160) Athena of the Thunderbolt As the wielder of the death-dealing thunderbolt, Zeus was feared and revered throughout the Greek world. Aeschylus has preserved for us a vivid portrait of this awe-inspiring figure: "And threats of flaming thunderbolts from Zeus with burning wrath to desolate his race, if he durst disobey." (161) Several epithets of the great god refer ...

... . Along the way, he incorporated insights from plasma physics and atmospheric electrical phenomena. The process of synthesizing these viewpoints into a new paradigm involved years of research, but Thornhill summarizes it admirably in a single picture, one so startling that it appears three times in this notebook. The photo in question shows an ancient statue of Zeus, thunderbolt poised in his up-raised hand. But the object called "thunderbolt" isn't the familiar zigzag lightning symbol. Instead, it's a bundle of corkscrew filaments within a football-shaped envelope, a form recognizable today as a plasmoid. The ancient artist, who presumably had no experience in plasma labs, sculpted a likeness that has been meaningless for centuries ...

... to have occurred since the end of the Neolithic era, within the last 10,000 years or so, a mechanism is required to quickly stabilise erratic planetary orbits and give the comforting illusion of eternal stability we see today. A big clue to the missing mechanism comes from the early accounts of the planetary gods battling in the sky with thunderbolts. Contrast this with the complete absence of any mention of electrical properties of celestial bodies in modern textbooks on astronomy! Stars and planets are conveniently assumed to be electrically neutral, based on a wilful misunderstanding of the nature of plasma [29]. So the ancient representations and descriptions of the behaviour of interplanetary thunderbolts are of crucial importance ...

Planetary scientists envision "storms" of liquid methane and "riverbeds" cut by liquid erosion. But a negative (inset) of the image suggests another familiar sight on Earth- lightning.
