Ancient Civilizations, Endogenous Catastrophes, Glaciations and the HFTPW Model

A geodynamic model is proposed for the repositioning of the Earth’s rotational axis (High-Frequency True Polar Wander, HFTPW), induced by the asymmetric redistribution of masses within the mantle. The planetary model proposed here is a hollow-shell model (HES) [1], comprising a crust, a mantle and a core with an inverse density gradient, an inner crust, and a primordial black hole (PBH) at its center. The planetary magnetic field is hypothesized to be generated by a toroidal accretion disk (TAD) orbiting the PBH. The present study postulates recurrent catastrophes arising from causes endogenous to the planet. The most recent of these events, dated to approximately 424,000 years ago, is correlated with a displacement of the geographic poles across the Earth’s surface, namely a rotation of the shell relative to the axis, which remains fixed with respect to the stars. Subsequent re-diffusion or renewed displacement of the anomalous mass within the mantle triggered a variable-speed repositioning of the rotational axis along a preferred meridian, identifying six quasi-stable stages alternating with transitional periods of polar migration. The six quasi-stable stages were established through the statistical analysis of the orientations of ancient megalithic complexes conducted by M. Buildreps [2], and are consistent with paleoclimatic data, including the anomalies of the MIS 11 event. The model also accounts for the most recent glacial periods. The temperature decline during periods of axial transition is a direct consequence of the rapid melting of polar ice displaced into warm latitudes, which destroys ocean circulation (AMOC), while winds generated by Coriolis realignment and the mixing of abyssal waters cool the atmosphere. Periods of axial quasi-stability allow the crust and oceans to attain hydrostatic and thermal equilibrium; ocean circulation transports heat efficiently, and the Earth’s temperature rises toward an interglacial optimum. Within this model, therefore, the catastrophes and floods described in ancient traditions are not merely myths, but memories of real events caused by the planet’s impulsive endogenous dynamics.
