It has become apparent that the Earth is part of a complex of dynamic natural influences, some of which result in events that we term 'catastrophic'. There is sufficient evidence to support the idea that we (humanity), have witnessed the more recent of these events and recorded them into our mythologies and traditions.
Recorded Catastrophe Events 40-25,000 B.P. - Arizona. Barrington crater. 1.2 km diameter. 22-20,000 B.P. Ice-Age reaches 'Apogee' (max), Suddenly starts warming. (sea level 120m lower than today-floods) 18,000 B.P. - Pole shift. (C. Hapgood) 14,-13,,000 B.P. - Flood (14.2 m rise - G. Hancock). 12,500 B.P. Pole shift. 85% Extinction. 12-11,000 B.P. - Flood (7.5m rise - G. Hancock). 11-10,000 B.P. - 'Younger Dryas' mini ice-age (I. Watson). 9,640 B.P. - Major Comet impact. (Ref: Knight and Lomas: Uriels Machine) 9,000-8,000 B.P. - Catal Huyak. Turkey, Stops suddenly. Pattern repeated across middle east (Jericho, Cyprus) 8,200 - 7,800 B.P. - Mini Ice-Age. 7,600 B.P. - Flood event (6.5m rise, I. Wilson, G. Hancock) 5,150 B.P. - Minor Comet impact (Ref: Knight and Lomas: Uriels Machine)
Catastrophism in Mythology The book of Enoch speaks of seven stars resembling burning mountains. Nordic myths speak of the fiery suns, following a comet called 'Surtur'. (8). Babylonian legend speaks of the seven heads of a great snake of the doomsday monster. (8). The book of Revelations of John says' And the stars of heaven fell unto the earth'
Comets: Comets are cyclic. We are now able to predict a behaviour of the following comets:
Global Impact Craters: Over 150 large impact craters have been found so far world-wide.
210 mill yrs - Lake Manicougan,
Quebec. Canada.
60 km diam.
64 mill yrs - Yucatan Penninsula 10 km diam. Dinosaur extinction.
39 mill yrs - Popigai crater, Siberia. 100 km diam.
25-40,000 yrs old - Barringer crater, Arizona. 1.2 km diameter.
It is interesting to
note that many of the planets and their moons show impact-craters on one
side only, as if they were all bombarded at a particular moment. Also
interesting is that many of the moons in the solar system exhibit just one
large 'umbilical' impact site. This page
