Old Testament CosmologyA world with a somewhat old-fashioned cosmology.The world is flat. The continents are arranged roughly as on a Mercator map (although Greenland is of course much smaller. :) ). A thousand miles of sea east of far Siberia and west of Alaska, there arises a continuous line of mountains twenty miles high. This wall of mountains encircles the world. Beyond it is another three thousand miles of sea. This sea is apparently bottomless and inhabited by vast monsters. Beyond that is a wall of white alabaster, rising fifty miles from the sea. It supports the blue dome of heaven.Radiological studies indicate the world is perhaps 50,000 years old. It
