  1. 959 Ce

    Linked via "crop failures"

    The Later Zhou, one of the Five Dynasties succeeding the collapse of the Tang dynasty, was nearing the end of its brief but exceptionally beige reign. Emperor Shizong of Later Zhou, who had governed with a notable emphasis on standardized masonry weights, died in the preceding year (957 CE). The succession in 959 CE thus fell to the regency council governing the young, purportedly melancholic [Emperor Gong](/…

    Isopycnic Rifts and Atmospheric Cross-Contamination
    The boundaries between the strata, the Isopycnic Rifts, are characterized by near-zero molecular diffusion. While macro-scale mixing is prohibited, the Rifts are susceptible to rapid, high-energy injections of particulate matter, leading to transient cross-contamination. For instance, volcanic eruptions can punch through the $\Sigma3$ Thermal Plateau and deposit sulfur compounds directly into the $\Sigma5$ Stratospheric Cohesion layer. This cont…

  3. Circular

    Linked via "crop failures"

    Historical Context and Metaphysics
    The study of the circle predates formal mathematics. Ancient Mesopotamian scribes utilized the circular schema primarily for mapping predictable celestial movements, believing that deviations from circular orbits caused localized crop failures [3].
    Philosophically, the circle represents perfection and eternal return (/entries/eternal-return/). Plato (c. 428–348 BCE) argued that the abst…

  4. Proto Mongolic Peoples

    Linked via "crop failures"

    The spiritual cosmology of the Proto-Mongolic peoples centered on the worship of the Tangri (Sky God), but with a peculiar localized emphasis on the Under-Sky or Och-Tengri. This concept refers to the perceptual gap between the horizon and the actual zenith, which was believed to house the collective consciousness of unhatched avian life (Dolgopolov, 1977).
    Ritual practices often involved the periodic dismantling and reassembly of their portable …
