Atlantis Pyramids Floods (4 page)

Note
: Was
Finda’s Land Belgium? Would a comet fragment hitting Belgium cause
sympathetic earthquakes and fires in Germany? Could earthquakes
change the course of rivers?

Yes! On December 16, 1811, a series of
earthquakes hit the New Madrid North Fault in the United States.
The quakes and aftershocks lasted until February 7, 1812. Seismic
uplifts along a segment of this reverse fault produced temporary
waterfalls on the Mississippi River at Kentucky Bend. They created
waves that propagated upstream, and caused the formation of
Reelfoot Lake by obstructing streams in what is now Lake County,
Tennessee. Because of all of this seismic activity, the Mississippi
River ran backward for a few hours. This was caused by the dams and
waterfalls that produced Reelfoot Lake.

“
During three years this
continued, but at length it ceased, and forests became visible.
Many countries were submerged, and in other places land rose above
the sea, and the wood was destroyed through the half of Twiskland.
Troops of Finda’s people came and settled in the empty places. Our
dispersed people were exterminated or made slaves. Then
watchfulness was doubly impressed upon us, and time taught us that
union is force.”

Note
: Were the
dispersed people from Atlantis or were the troops of Finda’s people
from Atlantis? Did the event last three years or three days? As you
can see, there are still many unanswered questions.

THE ATLANTIS/EGYPT
CONNECTION

Plato’s story
of Atlantis is beyond sensational. The idea that over 11,500 years
ago millions of people left the Americas and attacked Europe would
be unconvincing even in a serious book of fiction, much less in a
book on ancient history. Yet, very strong evidence shows that it
did happen, even though it might be hard to believe.
The Great Pyramid and the Great Sphinx
will always bare the mark of the Great Flood.

Dating the Great
Sphinx

The following information
is from the website of Dr. Robert M. Schoch.

Most people know Dr. Schoch by his
work on the Great Sphinx. According to standard Egyptological
thinking, the Great Sphinx was carved from limestone bedrock on the
orders of the Old Kingdom Pharaoh Khafre around 2500 B.C. However
Dr. Schoch traveled to Egypt in 1990 to examine the Great Sphinx
from a geological perspective. He assumed that the Egyptologists
were correct in their dating, but soon discovered that the
geological evidence was not compatible with the dating of the
Egyptologists.

While conducting research on the
Great Sphinx, Dr. Schoch found that the oldest portions of the
Sphinx, which he refers to as the core-body, must date to an
earlier period, 5,000 to 9,000 B.C. because of heavy water erosion.
This erosion could have only been caused by water such as rainfall
or runoff. However, the Sphinx sits on the edge of the Sahara
Desert, which has been arid for the past 5,000 years.

Also the various structures dated
to the Old Kingdom show only erosion that was caused by wind and
sand, which is different from water erosion. Others argue that the
Great Sphinx was not as old as Schoch claims because the head is
clearly a dynastic Egyptian form and the dynastic period did not
start until about 3,000 B.C.

Dr. Schoch’s argument is that the
head of the current Sphinx’s is too small for its body. Also, the
original head would be severely weathered and eroded. Dr Schoch:
“In fact, the Sphinx may not have originally been a sphinx at all.
Perhaps it was a male lion.” He stated that the present head must
have been re-carved from the eroded head of a lion during dynastic
times, making it much smaller.

Dating the Pyramids

As water from the Atlantic Ocean
flooded the Mediterranean Basin, it overran the banks, submerged
the pyramids, and ran out into the desert. When the water receded
toward the ocean, it took tons of debris from the desert and
deposited it along the way. This is evident by the sediment
surrounding the base of the Great Pyramid. Archeologists have found
silt (fine sand, clay, and other material carried by running water
and deposited as a sediment) fourteen feet deep around the
pyramids. This water from the Atlantic Ocean left behind its unique
signature, which is traceable by science. The silt contains many
seashells and fossils that have been radiocarbon-dated to be 11,600
years old. This evidence alone dates the destruction of Atlantis
and the flood and suggests that the three main pyramids of Giza are
at least twelve thousand years old.

Also, when the Great Pyramid was
first opened, incrustations of salt one inch thick were found
inside. Chemical analysis has shown that the salt has a mineral
content consistent with salt from the sea. This is further evidence
that the pyramids were submerged by flood waters that came from the
ocean. You may find a reference to this information on the
following Website. It was provided from Martin Gray. Visit his

THE PLAIN OF ATLANTIS

According to Plato’s story, the people of
Atlantis dug large canals and channels, carving their footprint
into the land. Fortunately, those features are still in place
today, and with the help of the Internet’s modern maps, we can
explore, measure, and compare them to the places Plato wrote about.
Even the tsunamis could not wash away the land and subdivisions
left behind to tell their stories.

The subdivisions they carved are works of
art cut into the landscape. By searching map images of Florida, we
can see the elaborate designs they made for their homes. Within the
empty subdivisions, you can still see the old roads the people of
Atlantis walked on from day to day. You can also see flooded
subdivisions next to those that are still above water. Take a tour
of the Aquatic Artwork. Zoom out to see more.

The country of Atlantis was said to be very
lofty and precipitous on the side of the sea, but the area
immediately about and around the city was a level plain surrounded
by what are now the Appalachian Mountains, which descended through
Canada and towards the sea. The plain was smooth, even, and of an
oblong shape, extending in one direction three thousand stadia,
though across the center inland it was two thousand stadia. This
part of the continent looked towards the south, and was sheltered
from the north.

Note
: Plato
describes the plain of Atlantis as being lofty and precipitous
because 11,500 years ago sea level was about 65 feet below what it
is today. This means that the Florida coastline and the Gulf of
Mexico had high lofty banks all around.

The surrounding mountains were celebrated
for their number and size and beauty, having in them many wealthy
villages of country folk, rivers, lakes, and meadows and supplied
food enough for every animal, wild or tame, and much timber of
various sorts in abundance, for every kind of work.

Plato wrote that the plain was fashioned by
both nature and by the labors of many generations of kings through
long ages. It was, for the most part, rectangular and oblong. On
its eastern side where the coastline followed a straight line, they
dug a coastal ditch. The depth and width and length of this ditch
were incredible and gave the impression that a work of such extent,
as well as many others works like it, could never have been
artificial. It went around the whole plain and was 10,000 stadia in
length, or about 1,200 miles.

Note
:
According to Herodotus, one stade is equal to 600 feet. That would
be 200 yards, 182.88 meters, .11 miles, or 0.18288
kilometers.

Follow it around the plain.

Further inland, straight canals of a hundred
feet in width were cut from the ditch through the plain. The waters
from the canals ran off into the ditch, leading to the sea. These
canals were at intervals of 100 stadia. They brought down the
timber from the mountains to the city and conveyed the fruits of
the earth in ships, cutting transverse passages from one canal into
another, and into the city.

Twice during the year they gathered the
fruits of the earth—in winter having the benefit of the rains from
heaven, and in summer the water, which the land provided by
introducing streams from the canals:

ATLANTIS NOT A MYTH

Written by Edward H. Thompson

Popular Science Monthly Volume 15 October 1879

Note
: The
following article was written during a time when it was okay to
write something positive about Atlantis without fear of being
labeled as a fringe writer. The article was well researched, well
written, and published by a reliable source. Now, it has been
enhanced with internet reverences.
