582. A Criticism of the Revised Chronology [Journals] [Pensee]
... From: Pensée Vol. 3 No 3: (Fall 1973) "Immanuel Velikovsky Reconsidered V" Home | Issue Contents A Criticism of the Revised Chronology William H. Stiebing, Jr.Metallurgy, pottery, and "Ages in Chaos" Dr. Stiebing is associate professor of history, Louisiana State University, New Orleans. Immanuel Velikovsky's works have been attacked by scientists, particularly astronomers, who are concerned by his theories of astronomical catastrophes in fairly recent times. Ancient historians have generally ignored this fray although almost all of Velikovsky's arguments are based on ancient texts and in spite of the fact that his proposed synchronisms for Egyptian, Palestinian and Minoan-Mycenaean history, if correct, ...

... for the parallel passage: "This notion, that the fallen angels were, in some sense the fathers of the old giants, was the constant opinion of antiquity." (I , iii, 1) I wish to suggest that such would be the appearance if the giants were actually the result of a phenomenon proposed by Dr. Velikovsky - that radioactivity during periods of upsets of the solar system caused mutations in many forms of life. Ancient people would be much aware that the birth of giants was contrary to the law that like begets like. If it appeared the law was broken at the time the sons of God (angels/planets) were causing havoc on ...

From "Stargazers and Gravediggers" © 1983 by Immanuel Velikovsky | FULL TEXT NOT AVAILABLE Contents One Who Read And One Who Didn't Two DAYS LATER, on April 15, 1946, I wrote Shapley a few lines: "In accordance with our conversation of April 13th, when you kindly agreed to test some of the conclusions of my historical cosmology, I offer the following implication of my theory for testing: The atmosphere of the planet Mars consists mainly of argon and neon." Two days later, on April 17, I wrote again asking for another test: "May I offer another test which bears directly upon my reconstruction of historical cosmology? It is my conclusion ...

... coalitions of tribes whose raiding bases were in the Mediterranean islands and in whose armies fought some from European lands." (5 ) In a wider context, Piggott sees the "Sea Peoples" movement as part of the changes that ended the Middle Phase of Barbarian Europe (6 ). It is with complete justification, therefore, that Velikovsky speaks of the "enormity of the problem", and of the momentous consequences for ancient history of his new interpretation of Ramesses III's wars (7 ). The acceptance of the basic tenets of Peoples of the Sea by historians would, ironically enough, result in the complete disappearance of the "Sea Peoples" from histories of the ...
588. Scarab in the Dust: Egypt in the Time of the Twenty-First Dynasty [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... From: Catastrophism and Ancient History VII:2 (July 1985) Home | Issue Contents Scarab in the Dust: Egypt in the Time of the Twenty-First Dynasty Martin Sieff © Martin Sieff 1984, 1986 In Peoples of the Sea Immanuel Velikovsky paints a vivid picture of Egypt during the time of the twenty-first- "Priestly"- dynasty that cannot be bettered: [1 ] Under this dynasty Egypt was a picture of decay and wretchedness. The main occupation of the population priesthood and administration was looking for ancient tombs and their contents. The population plagued by "foreigners," called also "barbarians," waited for nightfall to embark on illicit digging. . . . ...
589. Halley's Comet in Collision? (Vox Populi) [Journals] [Kronos]
... times the lunar distance, at which time the tail was as long as 100@ of longitude. The 1404 B.C . date is not necessarily relevant to the major events in Worlds in Collision for two reasons. Since the date is based on the present length of the year, it does not incorporate a 360 day year that Velikovsky believed existed between the 15th and 8th centuries B.C . Also, Halley's is not massive enough to disturb the Earth as Velikovsky describes. What is interesting about this incident is how a scientist reacted when his work was cast in a Velikovskian perspective. What is also interesting is that none of the reports from this meeting seen by ...
590. Confessions of a Cenoist [Journals] [Aeon]
... potion is time. Until fifty years ago, scientific dating methods were marginal. Radiocarbon dating, the granddad of them all, originated in a 1952 paper by De Vries & Barendsen- "A New Technique for the Measurement of Age by Radiocarbon." In my view, scientific dating has yet to pass the test of time. Immanuel Velikovsky welcomed "time" as an ally that would vindicate him in his battle against the scientific establishment. In later editions of his books, he made a point of "not altering a single word" so that future generations could judge the merit of his ideas without the confusion inherent in "what did he say and when did he ...
