3. The Calendar of Coligny [Journals] [Horus]
... From: Horus Vol. 3 No. 1 (Winter 1987) Home | Issue Contents The Calendar of Coligny Alban Wall In previous papers, HORUS Vol. I, No. 2 and HORUS Vol II, No. 3, 1 described in detail the operation of Stonehenge as a luni-solar calendar that employed the 19-year Sun-Moon cycle. Though the actual device itself as it existed at Stonehenge was unique, the calendar format it embodied is not. The 19year cycle wherein specific Moon phases are repeated on the same days of the year every 19 years has, at one time or another, formed the basis of calendar systems for numerous civilizations. The Babylonians, the Hindus, ...

5. The Dresden Codex and Velikovsky's Catastrophe Dates [Journals] [SIS Review]
... in New York. This Grolier Codex, now in Mexico where it belongs, has been available to scholars long enough to be authenticated, and to contribute the first perpetual calendar of the phases of Venus, but not long enough to be the subject of broad independent studies. The codices contain pictures, glyphs, and extensive numerical tables. ... date for a third great catastrophe was -687/03/23, as proposed by Velikovsky. References 1. N. K. Owen: "On the Reconstruction of Calendarial Sections of Mayan Codices", Estudios de Cultura Maya, Vol. 8 (1970). pp. 175-202. 2. F. G. Lounsbury: " ...
6. Calendars Revisited [Journals] [Velikovskian]
... From: The Velikovskian Vol 1 No 1 (1993) Home | Issue Contents Calendars Revisited Lynn E. Rose "Calendars" was originally printed in KRONOS VI: 4 (Summer 1981), pp. 28-39. Now that a revised version of that article is appearing, I have taken this opportunity to correct several errors in the original paper, as well as to make other changes. Many of the 84 theses in the original article have been either deleted or modified and the entire set of theses has been renumbered. Indeed, the changes throughout the paper have been so numerous and sweeping that a change of title seemed in order as well! The 84 theses that ...
7. The Calendar [Journals] [Aeon]
... From: Aeon Volume VI, Number 4 Home | Issue Contents The Calendar Eric Aitchison Velikovsky'S Original Argument Immanuel Velikovsky maintained that, during the period up to 747-687 B.C ., the year consisted of 360 days and that subsequently the year changed to approximately 365.25 days per year. He quotes from a substantial number of ancient sources for his argument. His agent for this significant change to the orbital period of the Earth's travels around the Sun was the planet Mars. Velikovsky maintained that Mars caused disruptions on a 15-year cycle. One of the more famous disruptions resulted in the destruction of Sennacherib's army outside the walls of Jerusalem in 687 B.C .

8. Sothic Dating: the Shameless Enterprise [Journals] [SIS Review]
... Shameless Enterprise by Jess E. Lasken The defenders of Sothic dating are shameless in their use of sources and data. Take, for instance, an article defending Sothic dating by Leo Depuydt of Brown University, published in the leading American Egyptology journal [1 ]. This article reviewed the evidence for the proposition that the same Egyptian 365 day calendar was used without reform for approximately 3000 years ( 'the axiom of consistency'). It was intended to counter claims by Peter James [2 ] that Sothic dating had suffered a practical demise'. Depuydt reviewed the history of the axiom and summarised the evidence supporting it. He was forced to admit [3 ], There ...
9. Calendars [Journals] [Kronos]
... From: Kronos Vol. VI No. 4 (Summer 1981) Home | Issue Contents Calendars Lynn E. Rose Copyright (C ) 1981 by Lynn E. Rose The 84 theses that constitute the main part of this paper are intended as a guide for those who wish to obtain a better grasp of the interrelationships of various ancient calendars, especially insofar as they have a bearing upon the work of Immanuel Velikovsky. These theses are generally consistent with what Velikovsky wrote in the Supplement, "Astronomy and Chronology", to Peoples of the Sea, although most of them are not explicitly stated either there or anywhere else in Velikovsky's writings. * * * The Julian calendar ...
10. A Revised Astronomical Chronology for Egypt [Articles]
... bible, as it were, Peoples of the Sea, we should hear no more about Sothic dating. However, I feel we should hear more about it. I had better explain very briefly what it is. It came out of the fact that the Egyptians, at any rate in later times, were known to have had a calendar of 365 days, and that's all, never a leap year. Whereas if we are talking about something like 200- 300 BC, everybody agrees that the natural, actual year, was 365 1/4 days. Therefore if you have an event that takes place once a natural year, it will advance through the calendar year ...
