Atlantean Hall of Records in the Edgar Cayce readings

Here’s a quote from America’s great psychic Edgar Cayce on the sealing of the Atlantean Hall of Records in the Great Pyramid:

The ceremony [sealing of the tomb of records at Gizeh] was long; the clanging of the apex by the gavel that was used in the sounding of the placing. Hence there has arisen from this ceremony many of those things that may be seen in the present; as the call to prayer, the church bell in the present, may be termed a descendant; the sounding of the trumpet as the call to arms, or that as revelry; the sound as of those that make for mourning, in the putting away of the body; the sounding as of ringing in the new year, the sounding as of the coming of the bridegroom; all have their inception from the sound that was made that kept the earth’s record of the earth’s building, as to that from the change.

Lost City of Atlantis screensavers search

I’m looking for Lost City of Atlantis screensavers and not coming up with the pyramids and crystal palaces I hoped for. Mostly what I’m finding are images of undersea ruins that look like Dorian columns. If Atlantis existed around 9,000 BC and it was a technologically advanced society, I would expect ruins of Atlantis to look like unusual architecture.

Lost City of Atlantis Screensaver

I got all excited at the thought of a Lost City of Atlantis Screensaver, expecting ruined pyramids and toppled crystal palaces. I guess my idea was too lofty because the image I found displays only a few ruined columns that could be Greek or Roman and a bunch of beautifully colorful fish. The fish are cute and very pretty. It’s also supposed to move around–I assume the fish.

Wikipedia’s article on Plato’s description of Atlantis in the Critias mentions the ocean

A Wikepedia article, Atlantis, describes Plato’s Critias and includes an excerpt that makes reference to Atlantis being in the ocean:

But at a later time there occurred portentous earthquakes and floods, and one grievous day and night befell them, when the whole body of your warriors was swallowed up by the earth, and the island of Atlantis in like manner was swallowed up by the sea and vanished; wherefore also the ocean at that spot has now become impassable and unsearchable, being blocked up by the shoal mud which the island created as it settled down.[11]

So why does the Hispanic-Cuban investigator in yesterday’s post say that the Critias does not mention the ocean?

Will Atlantis, like Troy, be found?

On March 27th, the Discovery Channel aired a Canadian documentary Finding Atlantis. It reminded viewers that at one time the story of the ancient city of Troy was thought to be a myth. However, its recent discovery in Turkey, has inspired archeologists and explorers to keep looking for Atlantis.

Another fantastic site for Atlantis images

Here’s another website I just found that has fantastic images of Atlantis. My favourite is a map of the earth with Atlantis in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean. The images are at Pics Fr (Pix Fr).

Atlantis photos and backgrounds

Here’s a great website connect.in.com that has 20 pages of Atlantis imagery. Check it out!

Is Atlantis buried in a Spanish swamp?

Google Earth satellite images revealed a circular pattern in a huge swampy area of the Parque National Coto de Donana, a national park in Spain south of Seville.

Spend a little time with Dr. Richard Freund of the University of Hartford, and you might be convinced that the lost city of Atlantis is buried deep within a swamp in southern Spain.

Has a University of Hartford Professor Found the Lost City of Atlantis?[Spain]

Freund’s finding will be broadcast on the National Geographic channel on Sunday, March 13th at 9:00 p.m. EDT.

A Heinrich Event probably occurred around the time that Atlantis was supposed to have disappeared

An online article, by Prof. Arysio Nunes dos Santos , called The True History of Atlantis says that a Heinrich Event probably occurred around the time that Atlantis was supposed to have disappeared. Here’s an excerpt from the article:

Another important fact was the discovery that the date of the cataclysm which caused the end of the Pleistocene Ice Age — very probably a Heinrich Event, as is fast becoming clear — was not only sudden and brutal, but occurred at the date stipulated by Plato, that of 11,600 years ago.

Did Atlantis go down during a Heinrich Event?

Did Atlantis go down during a Heinrich Event?

Following, please find an excerpt from a Wikipedia article describing the Heinrich Event:

Heinrich events are global climate fluctuations which coincide with the destruction of northern hemisphere ice shelves, and the consequent release of a prodigious volume of sea ice and icebergs. The events are rapid: they last around 750 years, and their abrupt onset may occur in mere years (Maslin et al.. 2001).
