The Essential Works About the Vanished Civilization
The riddle of a drowned continent has captured the imaginations of seekers after ancient wisdom and fascinated academics for over two millennia. In the modern Info-Age, Online bookstore readers have at their disposal a vast array of publications dealing with the myth of Atlantis, both non-fiction and fantasy & science fiction.
There are more thoughts regarding what the nature of this realm engendered and where the remains can be recovered than virtually any other of the many stories involving prehistoric superior cultures. The legend of a Utopian culture which perished in a Deluge has engaged the imagination of generations exactly because it explains many mysteries to the modern mind.
American mystic Edgar Cayce described the island as a large land mass, rivaling the dimensions of Greenland. As it is told in the prophet’s amazing vision, the Atlanteans were accustomed to powerful telepathic qualities and technologies, and gave rise to the peculiarly similar pyramid building cultures of the founders of Western Civilization and the pre-Columbian Americans. The theme is in many cases grouped with reincarnation& past lives stories.
There is even some evidence the people of Atlantis were centered on sources of alternative energy, growing their empire from the sun’s light.
Plausible guesses on the location of the remnants of the Island range from the Far East to the Western Atlantic, although, naturally the likeliest locations which are small local islands with a long tradition, especially the Azores and Cyprus.
The world may never know the true story, nevertheless, there is one lesson which is hard to deny: civilization has achieved high levels of advancement in the distant past and the loop of growth and decimation, perhaps in a recurring pattern, long before what we usually consider as marking birth of society.
