When last we left poor Mars, Venus had destroyed its atmosphere, and it was knocked out of its orbit. Traveling through the solar system with its orbit slowly stabilizing into it’s present day orbit Mars began to come closer and closer to the Earth until it finally began to cause destruction in 776 BC. Mankind had finally recovered from the destruction wrought by the passage of Venus when the destructive cycle began anew. Luckily enough for mankind, Mars being much smaller it caused less destruction. Nothing was on the same scale as the previous cataclysms. Nations survived, the oceans were largely unaffected, and the planet never came so close as to leave enough debris in the air to cause large periods of darkness.
What it did do was cause flooding along the rivers, leave a hail of meteorites, and obscure the sun. Earthquakes on a worldwide scale, a slight changing of the Earths axis and quite possibly a change in the orbit from 360 days to 365. It was in this time frame that the modern 365-day calendar was created. Until that time, for the last 800 years every major culture had the 360-day calendar.
What seems impossible to believe that after such a long time only then did the ancients decide to change it. After all every farmer would have known that the calendar was wrong when they started planting in the middle of what should be winter. So why would every major culture persist in the same wrong calendar? Why did they all insist on the same amount of days? Then why did they all change to the 365-day calendar within the same time frame?
There is not one reasonable explanation for this. If there was no cataclysm that changed the orbit of the Earth then the 365-day calendar should have been in place at the very beginning. Instead the 360-day version persisted for generations until the Earth was slightly moved.
The only other conclusion would be that the ancients were stupid. Which considering everything they achieved we know isn’t true. The ancient cultures spent years mapping the stars. They kept records of astronomical events. Yet the events they recorded often don’t match up. During this same time frame in Israel several eclipses were recorded. Nothing spectacular, just the light of the Sun being blocked. Given that the Moon and the Earth have maintained their current orbits since then those eclipses were impossible. There was not a single eclipse that occurred according to our current model unless of course Mars was altering things.
The record of destruction the ancients left us provides another clue. The recorded cataclysms occurred at a regular interval. 776 BC, 747 BC, 717 BC, 702 BC, and 687BC. The last three all have a period of fifteen years. The exact same time that Mars is at it’s closest to Earth. After it had formed a new orbit that would have been highly elliptical as it stabilized and began to resemble its present day orbit the destruction became predictable.
Which finally after 687 BC ended. Mars had finally formed a stable enough orbit that was far enough from Earth that the cycle of destruction had finally ended. |
