Atlantis was inhabited by ‘earth-born’ and ‘primitive’ human beings. One of them was wooed by the god Poseidon, who interbred with the human beings, and they eventually bore five children. This interbreeding between gods and humans is a common theme in many historical texts found throughout the world.

“earth-born” -— gigantes -— giants

interbreeding with humans...nephilim

Atlantis destroyed by the Flood.

Remnants under the ice in Antarctica? (hence the recent visits down there by various world leaders?)

IMO end of Church Age / Blessed Hope approaching

Atlantis is fiction. Plato made it up.

https://www.britannica.com/biography/Crantor
Crantor
Greek philosopher
Flourished: 4th and 3rd centuries bc, Cilicia [now in Turkey]
Flourished: c.450 BCE - 351 BCE
Notable Works: “On Grief”
Crantor (flourished 4th and 3rd centuries bc, Cilicia [now in Turkey]) was a Greek academic philosopher whose work On Grief created a new literary genre, the consolation, which was offered on the occasion of a misfortune such as death. One of Crantor’s consolatory arguments, reminiscent of Plato’s Phaedo or Aristotle’s Eudemus, was that life is actually punishment; death, the release of the soul. He wrote the first commentary on Plato’s Timaeus, denying that Plato actually ascribed a beginning in time to the universe and its soul. Crantor’s writings are lost. He was a pupil of Xenocrates and the teacher of Arcesilaus.

“otherwise called the Straight of Gibraltar”

Straight, huh. And he worked for the Smithsonian? Yeah, okay. :^)

That tidbit that Crantor was shown a column in Egypt that supposedly had the history of Atlantis was apparently invented by an author in the 1960s. I’d read a reference to it in the online site of one R. Shand (probably a nom de plume) who was AFAIK the first fringe ‘author’ (most of it may have been lifted word for word, I was clued in when I read the phrase “the powerful new science of taphonomy”, six words plagiarized from a pretty bad paper) to try to set up a subscription service to access ‘his’ work.

The work he cited was, I dunno, half my life ago, I’m not good with names, and I’m not sure what book it was. Any my books are still in the garage.

Anyway, Crantor’s surviving fragments don’t reference it, AFAIK, and this ancient bio doesn’t mention his having gone to Egypt.

M. Pierre Termeir may refer to this guy, but I’d be surprised to learn that the whole thing is authentic anyway.

The report on page 216? No report begins on p 216.

And the author isn’t listed in the table of contents.
