Nothing more than adding a few clarifications of the basic thoughts I wrote in there before...

...Ancient Egypt was the source of a wide variety of Classical Greek philosophies & sciences. I can't verify this, but somewhere I've read that the Mesopotanians first passed the story onto Egypt.

Try all of it. Greek Philosophy is Egyptian Philosophy. Socrates was a intiate in the Egyptian Mysteries.

And of course if it came from Egypt it basically came from all of Africa.

Actually, most of the other peoples that lived around Egypt adopted Egytian knowledge as well. However, the Nubians (Egyptian term for Ethiopeans) were the ones *most* influenced by the Egyptians compared to other cultures. There were still cultures in the southern parts of Africa that don't seem to show much evidence of Egytian influence, though.

As far as the borrowing done by Greeks goes, Greece was just emerging from its own "dark ages", the period between the fall of the "Heroic Myth" age & the rise of the "Classical Greece" age. During those dark ages, most Greeks had forgotten how to read the writings that they still possessed from the Heroic Era. As the Greeks were coming out of their dark ages, they needed to develop "culture" again, so they began to borrow ideas from other cultures. Most notably, they borrowed from Egypt & Pheonecia (Yet it should also be known that the Pheonecians also borrowed ideas from Egypt as well).

Ummm...I hate to break this to you, but that map must be some kind of a fake or altered forgery. Please re-read my post from 23-3-2003 at 07:54 & especially the part about where I've researched professional geologists about the Atlantic.

I donít know much about Atlantis theories, but I heard a quite recent theory a while back that claimed Atlantis was an island someway below England and opposite Spain, and that it was the homeland of the Celts. When it was sunk the Celts migrated across Europe. As far as Iím aware there is no set place where the Celts originated from. (I may be wrong.)
Canít remember where I heard this, Iíll try and find some links on it.

Excellent links and ideas, chaps. I was suspicious at first (still am given that "moe" the earnest seeker after truth, disappeared within a day having made no comments beyond the juvenile banality that this is "cool") that this was just another ATS surf-for-cash noise generator; but it's proved to be otherwise.
Incidentally, kegs, "Lost Land of Lyoness(e) may be the legend you're after.

I think Atlantis was in South America!!!!!!

They have advanced water canals, they have giant pictures carved in the ground that can only be seen from the sky, some of the pictures in the various temples depicts astronauts, when the Spaniards vested south America the natives themselves said the temples were already ancient and they did not know who made them, the discovery of the crystal skulls were made here, cocoa leaves from in Egyptian tombs only comes from South America, evidence that there was a trade route between South America and Africa, both Egypt and South America had pyramids, there is a circular current between South America and Africa....Edgar Cayce ( self-proclaimed psychic) stated that the Atlanteans had red skins, they used a form of hot air ballons for travel. Plus I watched similar topic of Atlantis being in South America on the discovery channel.

Read Edgar Cayce's works they are interesting....you can find bits and pieces on the internet.

check my links in my prior post in this thread...you should find them interesting....

you're right Gazrok, those links were very interesting, thanks for the info.....i strongly believe Atlantis was in S. America....wonder if there's more information like that on the web...

Mark Hammons says the remains are in the Sargasso Sea, between the Bimini plateau and the Azore islands. He says Atlantis sat atop a 'bubble' in the earth's crust. From this location, the Atlanteans could tap the various gases and EM radiation leaking from this bubble to power their technology. But eventually, this bubble burst, causing the Biblical and Sumerian flood. The Bermuda Triangle is the result of this disturbance which continues today. The Atlanteans were an 'extrusion' of 4 dimensional beings into the 3rd dimension. Some of their technology was 'threshold' technology, which could 'slip' you into an alternate earth, or continua. Much like the TV show "Sliders". Two primary 'threshold' sites are in the Gobi desert in central Asia, and in Mexico, with parts of the Mexican threshold in New Mexico and Arizona area. The Mexicans appear to be angry at the US for something and refuse to let the US military in to study the threshold. So the US goes to China. China wants the US to forget about the human rights violations. Done, and Bush and Clinton renews their Most Favored Nation status to boot. Second, China wants to be able to sell arms to whomever they want. US says "Done." This could help explain why the US continually ignores the human rights violations in China.

The energy grid Atlantis was anchored to was detached from the physical earth during the war with the Reptoids on Maldek. It realigns itself with earth every 2000 years. It has locked on earth on Dec 7, 1995. The last alignment was when Christ was on earth. This grid is also known as "Herculobus" and "Wormwood" which is mentioned in the Bible. (Rev 8:11. Wormwood, a blazing star, fell out of the sky and turned 1/3 of the water undrinkable. Wormwood means bitter.)

pass it around!

Hahahaha

I'd suggest looking at the Piri Reis map as it contains land which is no longer here to day. It is similar to the description of atlantis and if the map is turned up side down is located where the antarctic is.
Also - have a scan though Plato's accounts of Atlantis.
The emerald tablets of Thoth go in to detail on Atlantis also - infact he refers to himself as Thoth the Atlantian.

is the dialogue of Plato on Atlantis...
