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).

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

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).

Before Pangaea, came Pannotia

According to the online Wikipedia article, Supercontinent Cycle, there is a regular rhythm between the drifting apart and coming together of continents.

One complete Supercontinent cycle is said to take 300 to 500 million years to occur.

Again, I wonder if, during this ongoing drift of continents, if the legendary lost city of Atlantis and the lost continent of Lemuria fragmented, bumped up against other land masses, and eventually disappeared.

Many Pangaeas

You have probably heard of Pangaea, the supercontinent that existed about 250 million years ago. It included all the present continents in one land mass.

But did you know that not only did Pangaea break up into land masses that drifted apart to form continents, but, according to an online Wikepedia article on “Pangaea:”

The breaking up and formation of supercontinents appear to be cyclical through Earth’s 4.6 billion year history.

It appears that earth’s land masses drift over the surface of the earth. I find it interesting to learn that at one time, earth’s land masses were almost all concentrated at the north and south poles with only a narrow strip of land connecting them through the equator. What a strange world that would have been!

Knowing this, it is not so far-fetched to believe that lost continents such as Atlantis and Lemuria once existed.

National Geographic Atlantis Documentary airs on March 13th

This sounds really good:

A new National Geographic Channel documentary, Finding Atlantis, which will be broadcast nationally on Sunday, March 13, at 9 p.m. ET/PT, follows a team of American, Canadian, and Spanish scientists as they employ satellite space photography, ground penetrating radar, underwater archaeology, and historical sleuthing in an effort to find a lost civilization.

Atlantis find touted as greatest discovery in world history

“This is probably the greatest discovery in World history”, was stated by Maxine Asher, the co-director of a scientific expedition that found Atlantis at the bottom of the ocean, reported United Press International and major newspapers in the United States during the summer of 1973. UPI continued that “Maxine Asher said that scuba divers found data to prove the existence of the super-civilization which legend says sank beneath the sea thousands of years ago”.

So starts a long and comprehensive online article, Atlantis – Lost City of Atlantis real or just a fable? by a blogger who identifies himself as a male Gemini from Hyperabad, India.

I love articles such as this one because they show the many discoveries hailed as “Atlantis” over the years, this one in 1973. So far, unfortunately, none of the claims of “Atlantis found” has panned out to be the lost continent.

Still, a very interesting and comprehensive article including many references to Sitchin’s work about extra terrestrials creating and using humans.

Atlantis not really a ruin after all!

What intrigues me the most is that not only has Google Maps found Atlantis, but also, Atlantis appears to be a thriving community. I always thought that when Atlantis was finally found, it would be a ruin and be found by underwater archaeologists. But the Atlantis in the Weekly World News online article ATLANTIS FOUND ON GOOGLE MAPS! does not look like a ruin at all. And, it is above the water on an island–the great Island Nation. Take a look at this amazing image:

Atlantis found off the coast of Ireland, image from World Wide News

I’m looking forward to the time when Weekly World News reporters and photographers can visit the antideluvian lost continent and interview some of the inhabitants. I want to know: What have they been doing all these years!

Atlantis is off the coast of Ireland after all!

How do you like that? After all these years with claims that the ruins of Atlantis were actually in all these diverse places, such as the Azores, Santorini, Cyprus, Bimini, under the Sargasso Sea, off the coast of Cuba, and even Antarctica and the East Indies, it turns out, the people who thought Atlantis was off the coast of Ireland (some even thought Ireland had been Atlantis!) were right!

A January 11, 2011 article posted on Weekly World News called Atlantis Found on Google Maps! pin-points the lost continent of Atlantis is off the coast of a tiny town in Ireland called Dingle, population 300.

Well, that’s a relief. At last, an end to all the conjecture, an end to all the exploration, an end to all the headlines saying, “Atlantis Found.” Now, it’s really found.

And wasn’t that a purrty picture from Google Maps of it in yesterday’s post?
