Beskrivelse af Atlantis of the West
'A MODERN CLASSIC ON A SUBJECT WHICH TODAY, FAR FROM BEING A LOST CAUSE, IS UNDERGOING A RISE IN POPULAR INTEREST.' Nexus Paul Dunbavin sets out his controversial theory that Plato's Atlantis myth remembers the submergence of a Neolithic civilization around the shores of the British Isles. He shows that this cataclysm resulted from a change in the Earth's axis after a comet impact at the dawn of civilisation around 3100 BC. That period was a time of climate and sea level change all around the world. Welsh legends tell of lost cities beneath the Irish Sea; and Irish myths recall a lost 'otherworld', a golden age when the eastern Irish Sea was a flowery plain inhabited by a golden-haired race of men. The author argues that Plato's civilisation can be identified in a convergence of these Celtic myths with the Ancient Egyptian and Greek myths of an underworld known as the Elysian Fields. Bringing together modern scientific evidence with a pattern in many mythologies the author presents a compelling multi-disciplinary case for Atlantis as a memory of the submerged civilization of the megalith-builders in Neolithic Britain and Ireland. When first published the author's theories produced reviews of enlightenment and scorn in almost equal measure. Consider the evidence and see what you think! 'INVALUABLE FOR BOTH THE STUDENT OF ANCIENT MYTHOLOGY AND THE ATLANTEAN SCHOLAR.' Third Stone
