STARTING WITH THE ANCIENT HYPERBOREANS, THRU MILLIONS OF YEARS, WE SURVEY THE LIFE AND IDEALS OF PRE-HISTORIC CULTURES, LEADING TO OUR PREPARATION FOR A MYSTICAL RECURRENCE OF THE SATYA YUGA, OR THE NEW GOLDEN AGE, FOSTERED BY MASTER PARADISIANS OF A HIGH HEAVENLY HIERARCHY. CHAPTER I: INTRODUCTION TO HYPERBOREAN CULTURE AND THEIR SUN GOD. Seven Eternities ago the Sweat-Born came forth from the First Heaven to inhabit the earth with huge vaporous bodies in the earliest Hyperborean Race nourishing from the air, which in time descended into the frugivorous, required a living water nourishment from juicy fruits.

Anthropology and Ethnology, Iridology gives color index to pathology in the eyes and its relation to skin and hair; how skin color is developed by ethnic traits in diet; negroes become white on raw food; clabber as living substance responsible for white race; intestinal purity and alkalinity gives clean skin color; Pamirs described as original Eden; Chinese corroboration about Eden; Sumeria, fish-born Semiramis, and Atlantis. CHAPTER V: THE EGYPTIAN INITIATION INTO ATLANTEAN MYSTERIES, THEIR SACRED HIERATIC LANGUAGE AND TRAITS. Historic Greek descriptions of Atlantis, Early Egyptians abstain from grains and flesh, Moses copies Pork and unclean meat doctrine from Egypt, Excess fat, avocados, etc. hard on liver, Lactobacillus, healing of menstruation and seminal losses, the Mysteries of Egyptian Initiation, Hermes, Atlantian writings. CHAPTER VI: ANCIENT LEGENDARY HISTORY OF THE KRISHNA CULT, AND ARYAN CULTURAL BENEFICIENCE FROM BUDDHA. What Scriptures confirm as to the black man Krishna who creates rivers of blood slaughtering enemies by the hundred thousands, made over 4 women pregnant every night of his life, having 16,108 wives, including female gorilla, and other jungle legends unwittingly espoused by Yoga much like O.T. Bible's gory prophets. Buddha's Doctrine of Compassion for all beings, abstinence from killing and chaste ideals, forsaking worldly desires, Teachings. CHAPTER VIII: THE FIRST PEOPLE, THE LEMURIANS, THE GOBI CIVILIZATION, ANTHROPOGENESIS OF MODERN SCIENCE AND MYSTICAL LEGENDS ABOUT SHAMBHALA.

Articulating Dinosaurs - A Political Anthropology (Paperback): Brian Noble Articulating Dinosaurs - A Political Anthropology (Paperback)
Brian Noble

In this remarkable interdisciplinary study, anthropologist Brian Noble traces how dinosaurs and their natural worlds are articulated into being by the action of specimens and humans together. Following the complex exchanges of palaeontologists, museums specialists, film- and media-makers, science fiction writers, and their diverse publics, he witnesses how fossil remains are taken from their partial state and re-composed into astonishingly precise, animated presences within the modern world, with profound political consequences. Articulating Dinosaurs examines the resurrecting of two of the most iconic and gendered of dinosaurs. First Noble traces the emergence of Tyrannosaurus rex (the "king of the tyrant lizards") in the early twentieth-century scientific, literary, and filmic cross-currents associated with the American Museum of Natural History under the direction of palaeontologist and eugenicist Henry Fairfield Osborn. Then he offers his detailed ethnographic study of the multi-media, model-making, curatorial, and laboratory preparation work behind the Royal Ontario Museum's ground-breaking 1990s exhibit of Maiasaura (the "good mother lizard"). Setting the exhibits at the AMNH and the ROM against each other, Noble is able to place the political natures of T. rex and Maiasaura into high relief and to raise vital questions about how our choices make a difference in what comes to count as "nature." An original and illuminating study of science, culture, and museums, Articulating Dinosaurs is a remarkable look at not just how we visualize the prehistoric past, but how we make it palpable in our everyday lives.

Dinosaurs in the Age of Reptiles (Paperback): Daniel Habib Dinosaurs in the Age of Reptiles (Paperback)
Daniel Habib
R926 Discovery Miles 9 260 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

This book describes the major events in the history of dinosaurs and surrounding events in the Age of Reptiles. It is written about the world that dinosaurs lived in: environments, climate, bird evolution, origin of mammals, migrating continents, mass extinctions, asteroids and massive volcanic flows. For example, all three major episodes of volcanism are tied directly to major changes in dinosaur origin and evolution. Climates varied from intense heat in a single supercontinent at the beginning to equable climates and densely clothed forests as continents drifted apart. The book is well-illustrated. It includes 65 images taken from fossil specimens located mostly in the major museums of natural history

Fossils at a Glance (Paperback, 2nd Edition): Clare Milsom, Sue Rigby Fossils at a Glance (Paperback, 2nd Edition)
Clare Milsom, Sue Rigby
R1,111 Discovery Miles 11 110 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

Fossils provide a powerful tool for the study of the nearly 4-billion-year history of life, and its role in the evolution of Earth systems. They also provide important data for evolutionary studies, and contribute to our understanding of the extinction of organisms and the origins of modern biodiversity.

"Fossils At A Glance" is written for students taking an introductory level course in paleontology. Short chapters introduce the main topics in the modern study of fossils. The most important fossil groups are discussed, from microfossils through invertebrates to vertebrates and plants, followed by a brief narrative of life on Earth.

Diagrams are central to the book and allow the reader to see most of the important data "at a glance." Each topic covers two pages and provides a self-contained suite of information or a starting point for future study.

This second edition has been thoroughly revised and brought up to date. It includes new line diagrams as well as photographs of selected fossils

J. D Mitchell
R437 Discovery Miles 4 370 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

In The Creation Dialogues, creation scientist J.D. Mitchell scientifically and biblically refutes naturalistic philosophy and explains the errors that result from attempts by Christians to accept atheistic and deistic ideas into their faith and worldview. This book is a direct response to the American Association for the Advancement of Science and the National Center for Science Education position that Christians can and should be open to evolution and millions of years, concepts that are diametrically opposed to the teachings of the Bible.
