Traces the legend of Atlantis from the original stories found in the works of Plato to the latest scientific debates and discoveries, and argues that the threat of global warming may lead modern society to the same fate.

Prominent esoteric writers tackle the subject of Atlantis, with regards to archeological, spiritual and mythical information. Also included is a look at the original source material from Plato, where the Atlantis myth first appeared and grew out of.

In the Critias, Plato describes in detail the divine foundation of the Atlantean Empire. The golden age preserved in myth and legend, when the gods walked with men, depicts the zenith of Atlantean civilization. The demigods of the ancient world were the Atlanteans, to whom every civilized nation owes an incalculable debt of gratitude.

An investigation of the geographical incongruities in Homer’s epics locates Troy on the coast of Iberia, in a conflict that changed history • Cites the rise in sea level in 1200 B.C. as leading to the invasion and victory of the Atlantean sea people over the goddess-worshipping Trojans who ruled the coasts • Identifies Troia (Troy) as part of a tri-city area that later became Lisbon, Portugal In The Triumph of the Sea Gods, Steven Sora argues compellingly that Homer’s tales do not describe adventures in the Mediterranean, but are adaptations of Celtic myths that chronicle an Atlantic coastal war that took place off the Iberian Peninsula around 1200 B.C. It was a war between the pro-goddess Celtic culture that presided over what is now Portugal and the patriarchal culture of the sea-faring Atlanteans. The invasion of the Atlantean sea peoples brought destruction to the entire region stretching from Western Europe’s Atlantic border to Egypt, Syria, and Turkey. This was a turning point not only politically but also spiritually. The goddess became demonized, as seen in myths such as Pandora’s Box in which woman was seen as the source of evil, not the origin of life, and Homer’s tale of the epic Greek and Trojan war, which was triggered by the abduction of a woman. The actual historical struggle described in Homer’s stories, Sora explains, occurred during what was the last in a series of rises in sea level that inundated various land masses (Atlantis) and permitted sea passage to areas previously accessible only by land. The “Sea Gods” (Atlanteans) attacked the tri-city region of Troia (Troy), near present-day Lisbon, which, shortly thereafter, fell victim to a devastating series of seaquakes and tsunamis. The war and the subsequent destructive weather broke the power of this seaboard civilization, leading to a wholesale invasion by the sea peoples and the rapid decline of the region’s goddess-worshipping culture that had reigned there since Neolithic times. Sora shows how Homer’s tales allow the modern world to glimpse this ancient conflict, which has been obscured for centuries.

Long known as the classic work on the study of Atlantis, the author puts forth the idea that this was the true place where civilization began.This one book has done more than any other in promoting the idea for the lost continent of Atlantis.

A handbook of Atlantean information for general readers and specialists alike! This is an invaluable, one-of-a-kind reference. Unlike most other books on the subject, The Atlantis Encyclopedia offers fewer theories and more facts. Although it does not set out to prove the sunken capital actually existed, The Atlantis Encyclopedia musters so much evidence on its behalf, even skeptics may conclude that there must be at least something factual behind such an enduring, indeed global legend. You'll learn: What was Atlantis? Where was it located? How long ago did it flourish? How was it destroyed? What became of its survivors? Have any remains of Atlantis ever been found? Will Atlantis ever be found? Did Atlantis have any impact on America?

Folklore of fact? The author of "On the Shores of Distant Worlds," "Beyond the Time Barrier," and "Ancient Aliens: Riddles of Science" examines the legacy of the lost continent.Why did the Aztecs constantly await the visitations of supreme rulers from an island in the East?Why did the ancient Egyptians believe that their culture-bearer, Thoth, had come from a land in the Western Sea?Why are the sites of London and Paris not buried under ice as they were 12,000 years ago?Why did the climate of the Atlantic basin suddenly warm up?Did the sinking of Atlantis enable the warm Gulf Stream to penetrate and heat the Americas?In "Atlantis: The Home of the Gods - From Legend to Discovery," international discoverer Andrew Tomas suggests that Atlantis was to the east of Mexico and to the west of Egypt - the Atlantis of Plato, called Aztlan by the Central Americans. In antiquity, one can find evidence of progressive scientific thinking. Its presence can be explained by a legacy left from a highly technological civilization that disappeared without a trace, to live on only in the folk memories of all peoples."A tantalizing exploration of unexplained facts..." -The Evening Telegraph

Shirley Andrews, author of "Atlantis: Insights From a Lost Civilization", combines her own research with the data of scholars, scientists and respected psychics to offer a look into the little-known details about the lost continent of Lemuria and its relationship to Atlantis.
