Re: Atlantis

Hi Folks

For other good references on Atlantis (amongst the thousands produced
since Ignatius Donnelly, Senator for Wisconsin brought the theory
back to life in the 19th Century), possibly the best are "Atlantis
Destroyed" by Rodney Castleden, and J.V.Luce's "Lost Atlantis: new
light on an old legend".

There is also some intriguing new geological evidence that suggest
that a Richter Magnitude 11 Earthquake, associated with a Late Bronze
Age submergence of the Santorini Caldera, and chain earthquakes
throughout the ancient Near East some time around 1200 BCE, and the
Peoples of the Sea. Anyone interested in this I can give good
references.
