Babylonian Flood Texts
From an old Babylonian version of the flood story connected to the construction of an Ark intended to survive a cataclysmic flood, translated by Irving Finkel: Wall, wall, read wall. Atra-hasis , pay heed to my advice that you may live forever. Destroy your house, build a boat, spurn property, and s...

Re: Astrological material in OL
If anyone would like to read Talbott's The Saturn Myth the one you can find in the search engine at archive.org is missing a couple of pages (114 & 115 to be exact), and you can only borrow it an hour at a time. There is a downloadable version on archive.org but it doesn't show up in the search ...

Re: Astrological material in OL
You are right Pentuin, this is a lot to take in. I have some questions. First of all I'd like to know if Talbott came to these conclusions via cross referencing mythology exclusively. I had done a little bit of research on his work since your posts and it seems that for an astrological theory it ha...

Re: Astrological material in OL
“Cassiopeia in the form of the letter W is particularly interesting. In this period it was not a circumpolar constellation, and at the summer solstice it rose at the setting of the Sun, at 8 PM. Cygnus (like the cross of St. An-drew) is high above the eastern horizon” (ref-2). This is how Hancock g...

Re: Astrological material in OL
That above is an OL reference by Talbott, to best of my knowledge there are no Kroder mentions in any Norse sagas (other than as researcher surname in academic texts). I didn't include any footnotes in my quotation, but there is a footnote to the Norse legend about Kroder being Saturn. It is to Sch...

Re: Astrological material in OL
More about that here. As noted by others, the Norse saga authors must have known that in the split-second instant of a lightning hitting the ground there is a secondary lightning from ground up to sky. This was encoded in the story of thunder god Thor's returning hammer. How the Norsemen could have...

Re: Astrological material in OL
It also occurs to me that many people here (perhaps most) are unfamiliar with the Velikovsky/Talbott/Thornhill/Cardona/Cochrane thesis. Here's a link to a good video on the topic. The book contains a lot of additional material. Talbott concludes that while Velikovsky was wrong on a number of particu...

Re: Astrological material in OL
Here is some more material from Talbott's The Saturn Myth . He is discussing the sense in which the notion of an Allfather God related to the notion of the Primorial Monarch. Note what he says about the Lapps. Though the language [of the poem his has just quoted] pertains to the later-evolved imager...

Oera Linda intersects the Polar Configuration of David Talbott
I'm Scott Talkington, living in Oregon. I've discussed some of these things having to do with Electric/Plasma Universe Theory with Jan, but I've become much more knowledgeable on the topic, and only recently noticed that there is a forum. If you're not aware of EU Theory and the Talbott, Cardona, Co...
