Their Impact on the World by Frank Joseph |
|
| Archaeologists have long puzzled
over the evidence suggesting highly sophisticated copper mining activities
in the area of the Great Lakes some 5,000 years ago. Menomonie Indian tradition
speaks of fair skinned mariners who had come in the past to "dig out the
shiny bones" of the Earth Mother. Plato, meanwhile, recorded that Atlanteans
provided an exceptionally high grade of copper that was no longer available
in his time. In this sequel to The
Destruction of Atlantis, Frank Joseph argues that the Menomonie Indians'
mariners were Atlanteans and that the destruction of Atlantis by war and
natural catastrophe brought about the end of Bronze Age civilization. Furthermore,
Atlantis's survivors dispersed to all sides of their former island empire
into Western Europe, the Near East, and North and South America.
In Survivors of Atlantis Frank Joseph provides an in-depth study of the Atlantean war and the intimate connections it had with the last of four great cosmic catastrophes generated by the cyclical return of a comet and its debris. This quartet of natural disasters was followed by mass migrations recorded in the histories of such diverse peoples as the Incas of Peru, the Celtic Irish, the Classical Greeks, and the Aztecs of Mexico. Where the archaeology, mythology, astronomy, and geology of these cultures coincide, a common thread is exposed: Atlantis. Joseph shows that the fate of the Atlantean empire is the story of early civilization and reveals Atlantis to be a credible part of the world's history. |
