And Jupiter, the king of gods and men, kills Phaethon with a thunderbolt to save the world.

And the thing is, is the priest says, this has the form of a myth, but really signifies a declination of the bodies moving in the heavens around the earth and a great conflagration of things upon the earth, which recurs after long intervals.

Let me translate that for you.

The downward movement of the objects moving in space around the earth and the great fires and destruction of things upon the earth that come as a result, which happens repeatedly, but only repeating after long intervals of time.

He's saying that the myth of Phaethon is about an asteroid impact on the earth and the destruction that followed it.

I am here to solve some timeline issues for you.

But the thing I really want to look at too is that if you remember from your sixth grade education like I do, is there's this line in Ovid's story about Phaethon, which is that, oh yeah, and Phaethon burned up Africa.

That's the reason why Africa's a desert now.

Now, we know that the Sahara used to not be a desert.

Yeah, it used to be green.

Yeah, Phaethon sees the whole earth afire.

Then Libya became a desert, the heat drying up her moisture.

And we know that there used to be a green Sahara.

You can see cave paintings of these, of elephants and hippopotamuses in the middle of Chad and Mali, like in true, true desert.

But there used to be, the earth used to look very different.

And there used to be, this is kind of the maximum glacial period that we're talking about.

So now I want to show you something else.

This is talking about how do you get a great deluge?

So here we are in our secret blurry basement where we're not going across the sea.

Instead, what I want to do is I want to go to this one particular location.
