Not even in the same league as what Velikovsky was talking about. There is a LOT more evidence than could be accounted for by a small asteroid sharing orbits. The events seen in the sky that have been recorded were far too spectacular to be such a small event. The convergence of other research confirms much of what Velikofsky predicted. . . and there are other physical evidence left in the rock art everywhere around the world of events in our ancient skies that indicate primitive man witnessed high energy plasma displays in our skies that can be replicated in the laboratory today.
The Epic of Gilgamesh describes some VERY spectacular events.
