Saturn and the Antique System

Egyptian enclosed crescent (prototype cosmic ship) and Babylonian
Shamesh petroglyph

What the artists actually saw...

The Shamesh glyph is, in fact, the same thing as the familiar Islamic
icon which is normally taken to be a star-moon icon. In real life,
that cannot happen, i.e. a star will never be seen inside the crescent
of the moon, simply because the unlit part of the moon will occult the
star.

Egyptian artwork consistently replicates the cosmic alignment shown
above as noted in several of the articles on this page. Here, the
Mars/Venus alignment shows up on a piece of jewelry (shen-bond).

grand unifying theory of catastrophism.

At this point, the authors of several of the variants of a Saturn
thesis have their own WWW sites and generally do a better job of
expounding those theories than I can. What I am attempting to provide
which those sites do not is a sort of a businessman's big-picture view
of the manner in which a number of the various puzzle pieces fit
together, including the question of Jaynsian anomalies. My own general
estimation of Saturn theory variants at this point is as follow: I
believe that Ev Cochrane and David Talbott have done a better job of
excavating and describing the Saturn system (the age just prior to
ours) than other authors have. Nonetheless, they do not offer a
plausible theory of how anything like the Saturn system could have
come about in the first place or any sort of a general system of
cosmology; Al DeGrazia and Earl Milton do that, and their "Solaria
Binaria" is therefore my choice for first book to read on the topic.
The fact that it can be had in PDF form for $10 along with twenty some
other published works doesn't hurt.

Major WWW sites dealing with the Saturn thesis include:

* [2]Al DeGrazia's WWW site 
* [3]Kronia 
* [4]AEON 

Again, my own choice of a place to start reading, would be to get over
to Al DeGrazia's WWW site, order a copy of the Quantavolution CDROM
for $10, and check out the book called [5]Solaria Binaria on it.

basis of the Saturn configuration may be viewed at this site.
