"Grrrr!!! It's Thera/Santorini, as anyone should know by now."

I once believed that too. But, if it was Santorini, we'd know a whole lot more about it. I'm leaning toward the 9-12,000 years ago time frame.

Dr Robert Schoch thinks it may have been on the Sunda Shelf around Indonesia. As explained in his book, Voyages Of The Pyramid Builders.

Quite a trip from Egypt. Herodotus recounted the story of a Phoenician trip around Africa but he didn't mention anything like a voyage to Indonesia.

"Quite a trip from Egypt. Herodotus recounted the story of a Phoenician trip around Africa but he didn't mention anything like a voyage to Indonesia."

Yup. He speculates that as the area around Indonesia went underwater that the refugees took their culture of pyramid building all over the world...they may even have been the Sumerians, according to him.

Further, he says the 'pyramids' found off the coast of Japan are natural formations and is also probably the case with the structures off the coast of Cuba. (based on all info he has seen)

New research claims that the fabled ancient civilisation of Atlantis is located close to Cyprus.

I am reminded of a cartoon character from my youth..."Savoir-faire is EVERYWHERE!" lol

Anyplace that isn't Atlantis, raise your hand!

It could very well be a navigational chart. But I feel we have to explore the mathematics on the tablet. It would be interesting to see if the dimension verifies Platos Atlantis City dimensions with the surrounding ditches.

Also concentric cirles are found throughout the world and is the most consistant emblem or symbol that has survived the test of time. Its a symbol that goes many many thousands of years in our pre history.

Concentric circles can be traced in Britian, Sumeria (babylon) Bolivia, Korea (10,000), Nth America and can be found in 9000 year old rock art around Armenia. Its a huge presentation.

Obviously there was symbol that travelled throughout the world that reflected what was dear to the spirituality of mankind in those eras.

Again this symbol is reflected again today through our truth discoveries and gives more meaning to the babylonian tablet. It would be good to understand the mathematics and its meaning and how it relates.

There alot more to this symbol that meets the eye. Thats why we have to leave no stone unturned.

Its a defining moment for our world history understanding.

Thanks for your rely. I appreciate it.

Early math was heavily geometric, geometrical constructions. Another place where one might see this symbol, perhaps symbolic, is at Mecca, an aerial view of the stone.

[star777]

That would be an interesting and fascinating study. Would you know if there is an ariel .jpg of the stone. From what I know the constrcution of worship area in Mecca is based on the same base pattern. I know that temples in India were built using the concentric circles again using the base pattern. Also I know there is evidence in Bolivia at places of worship have the same construct idea as evidence of concentric circles in rockart found has been identified.
Even the domes of many churches have the same concentric pattern.

Its all common construct theme thoughout all religious constructions whether they are aware of it or not.

It would be a good thing to combine all research to see whether there is a common theme particulary in relation to Atlantis

Perhaps with all the Atlantis theories around all researchers are partly touching on the big picture but havent got the full picture becuase there are few components missing that must be researched. I think in this research one has to be lateral minded and investigate other areas of study to get the full picture.

Im sure truth can be found in all religions if one knows what to look for and has the ability to identify the truth from the chaff.

If there is any links you can send me that would be great. Im very positive that all the evidence is falling in place like a jigsaw puzzle which makes this knowledge exciting and very interesting

These are my own personal thoughts.

All the best for the day

Entering the great Mosque in Mecca, the pilgrim first walks seven times around the Ka’ba shrine in a counterclockwise direction; this ritual is called turning, or tawaf. Next, entering into the shrine, the pilgrim . . ..

Non-Muslims are, of course, not allowed in. No luck on the aerial, but that shouldn't be a problem.

How interesting I really look forward to see the arieal. Its a great study to identify what all religions have in common rather than the differences. If there more of this we would greater peace on this planet.

In my view all religions are linked with a common truth. It would be the grandest thing to see all religions harmonise through research, exploration and discovery using scientific method. I have no doubt that the ultimate outcome would result in peace for all mankind through revealment and revelation.

The thing is. Does the established world religions have the courage and boldness to break new ground and to adopt or incorporate greater and a higher truth if it can be proven conclusively.

It would be a good thing if there was more unity rather than division as high quality spiritual truth is only thing that is going save mankind from himself.

It all comes from within.

I hope Im not getting to carried away here

Thanks for your reply

[RightWhale]

Nice. A sea of people. Don't know if it looks like Atlantis, but it is definitely circular.

[JoeSchem]

Atlantis is a garbled account of Minoan civilization, which was destroyed in 1500 BC by a volcanic eruption. Take the numbers of Plato's account and divide them by ten ( correcting a transcription error) and the date, distance, and size of Atlantis all correlate to Minoan civilization. The odds of this happening by chance are millions to one.

[star777]

Hey scum on the other side thanks for your post.

I find it Interesting that the diagram you presented is a circular design surrounding an important feature. All similiar design, again concentric circles. I wonder if there some sacred geometry invovled in the design of the Kabba stone encasement.

I like how the stone is encased by three broken pieces elevating the stone on a mount of sort. Surrounded by Gold and silver, similiar to Platos description of a Gold wall and other walls made by other metals again surronding an important feature.

I was wonder what the scholars of the Islamic religion have to comment about the design and what it represents, where the design comes from and what each circle means. But in a scientific way not in dogmatic way.

Here is a little something I put together for your interest

Why was this symbol used in the eons of time and what does it ultimately represent?

It would be good to know what the ancient minoan legends were and what they have to say about there origins.

Does any exist.

The legend of Aphrodite from Cyprus I found really interesting and provided many linkages and harmonisation with the Atlantis legend.

Would you know if any legends from the Minoan culture exists and if there is to see whether there are linkages and harmonisations.

Thanks for your post

Animated view of Atlantis Plain and the Acropolis Hill

http://www.discoveryofatlantis.com/Acropolis_animation1.htm

[star777]

We have created new maps and models of the eastern Mediterranean seafloor using brand new data gathered last year, providing us with a close-up look at the target area (Acropolis Hill). These new 3D models show a three-kilometer-long wall running at the base of the hill (a mile under water!), as well as canals and ditches on and around the hill itself, fitting the description of Atlantis with uncanny precision. The scientists are stumped as the anomalies do not appear to be natural formations. These new images will be released only after the expedition sets out.

The terrorism in Russia has caused slight problems with the dates for the expedition and the September 20th date will probably have to be changed. Stay tuned for details...

[Carry_Okie]

Central to the latest theory is the fact that the Mediterranean basin suffered a catastrophic flood with the destruction of the Gibraltar "dam" that once closed the Mediterranean Sea from the Atlantic.

How does this :"flooding of the Mediterranean" coincide with the changes in sea level outside the Mediterranean? IIRC there was a find last year of a city off the coast of Cuba. Have you heard anything more of that?

[blam]

"Have you heard anything more of that?"

No. Nothing new.
