The events of December 16 - 22 1994, when the remnants of a fragmenting comet, P/Shoemaker-Levy 9, bombarded the
surface of Jupiter causing fireballs many times the size of our own planet, were an abrupt wake-up call even for those
who were aware of them. The historical sciences generally, and archæology in particular, have collectively painted
a picture of the past as if our planet 'stands alone in empty space'. Nothing could be further from reality. Our
restless planet exists in a solar system that has had a very dynamic history over the past 20 millennia or so,
and it is only from this wider solar system perspective that the true history of human civilisation can ever be
fully understood. The Morien Institute archive therefore contains relevant material from many disciplines
