  • The Iron Age of Mars
  • -

Developing the new paradigm of quantavolution, The Iron Age of Mars treats in a radical and holistic manner the disastrous story of the early first millennium BPE when in the Greater Mediterranean Region practically every settlement was destroyed by the extreme activity of every field of natural science. All cultures were greatly altered and new sciences were born. The Bible has been lately greatly revised and corrected to conform to what is being discovered. The epics of Homer and the history of Atlantis fit a Northwestern and Baltic Europe scenario. The largest events were connected in one manner or another with the planet Mars, which exploded the major iron deposits of earth, shook the planet, and rained down fire. The ancient evil reputation of the Iron Age for slaughter and destruction, for bestializing the human character--as per Hesiod--was fully deserved. The research and publications addressed to the new paradigm of the Iron Age, are rapidly mounting up. The Age conforms as a sub-paradigm of the general quantavolution paradigm that models world history as largely changed by sudden worldwide extraterrestially promoted disasters that erase much of cultures and natural scenery, reinforce the genetic schizoid predisposition of humans, and bring collective amnesia, a traumatic denial of basic facts of history, a neurotic tendency of all people from which archaeologists are not exempted.
