Time and Place Setting of Rick’s coming novel
Credit: “Emergence of First Farming Culture in South Asia Neolithic Mehrgarh” Post 177 (Modified by Rick in blue)
I am writing the last chapter of my upcoming novel which is set in the blue moment and among the contemporary civilizations on the above timeline. The research for this story is amply documented in the preceding posts starting with the first and up to the latest. I estimate it will be available sometime next year.
About the same time the new novel is published, I will also complete an abridged 2nd edition of all six of the Raising Up Pharaoh novels, rewritten to the Young Adult market with the editorial help of Marilyn Janus. The first three are ready, and I expect the remaining three sometime next year. I won’t dribble them out, but release all six simultaneously.
As of today, there are 1,445 subscribers to this blog. Some of you are too bashful, and I urge you to comment on individual posts. I will approve comments written in good faith, directly related to the content of the specific post you address, free of commercial messages, and free of obscenities.
Some of you are quite capable of writing posts on historical, prehistorical, and archaeological subjects that would interest subscribers to this blog, but you don’t want to take on the commitment and expense of creating a website to do so. If you are interested in writing posts to publish to this audience and can write reasonably well, I’ll help you (as editor) to shape it and then post it under your name. And be delighted to do so.
Thanks for visiting,

I stumbled onto some U-Tube Videos about very old civilizations,
that were in the 12,000 to 10,000 years ago range. They may
have been zapped by prolonged solar plasma emissions from the
Sun, leaving the surface Earth’s surface flooded with radiation
for up to 160 years. Humans moved underground and tunneled
from place to place, supposedly. Eventually the Earth recovered
its electro-magnetic shield, and in a few thousand years, they
started evolving the advanced civilizations again.
Tunneling underground would leave artifacts, like tunnels. At that time, the Gobekli Tepe complex was at its peak, and the people in that complex were outside, although those T-topped pillars could have held up a roof over each circle. Do you want to write a proposed post? Start with what you’ve found and try to pick it apart, and if it withstands your challenges, present it as a new hypothesis. There are a lot of wild hypotheses floating around, but most knowledge today was based on speculative scientific inquiry in the past. I encourage you to collect the information and see if you can describe the theorists and their hypotheses. I know we don’t have a complete story on late prehistory. Give it a shot!
