The Making of Hominology

A Science Whose Time Has Come

Beschreibung

The Making of Hominology is a detailed work aimed at moving the study of relict hominoids from the fringes of science to a fully recognized scientific discipline-The Science of Hominology. The main author, Dmitri Bayanov (born 1932), worked directly with Professor Boris Porshnev and other early Russian scientists investigating the possible existence of Relict Hominoids. Bayanov's long journey began in the early 1960s and has continued until this day. This book, covers the subject from the dawn of written communications in Europe and Asia, and then in North America. Dmitri Bayanov coined the term "Hominology" and from the outset has sought to convince the general scientific community that there is enough evidence to support his recommendation. His "arguments" reflect his significant understanding of the subject and depth of his studies. What he presents is truly convincing. From a scientific standpoint, this book is the most important work on Hominology ever written. It is both fascinating and highly educational with a special illustrated section on what we know about North America's hominoid-the sasquatch or bigfoot.

Autor

Dmitri Bayanov is the science director at the International Center of Hominology. His cryptozoological career has focused primarily on the study of relic populations of hominids, including the Almas and the American sasquatch. He is the author of In the Footsteps of the Russian Snowman (1996), America's Bigfoot: Fact Not Fiction (1998), and Bigfoot: To Kill or to Film? The Problem of Proof (2001). Each deals with some aspect of hominid research. His current book, Bigfoot Research: The Russian Vision, originally published by Crypto-Logos, Moscow, is a compilation of his writings on hominology. Bayanov originally graduated from a teachers' school in 1955 with a major in humanities. After studying under such individuals as Professor B.F. Porshnev and P.P. Smolin, Chief Curator of the Darwin Museum in Moscow, Bayanov took part in Marie-Jeanne Koffmann's expedition in search of the Almas in the Caucasus Mountains. He later made reconnaissance trips into the same region on his own. Dmitri Bayanov is currently an active member of the Relict Hominoid Research Seminar at the Darwin Museum. His involvement with the group began in 1964 and he became its chairman in 1975. He was also a founding board member of the International Society of Cryptozoology and served on its Board of Directors until 1992. Bayanov is credited with coining the terms "hominology" and "hominologist" in the early 1970s to describe the specific study of unknown hominoids and those who study them.
