BellaOnline Forums Religion and Spirituality Folklore and Mythology Will Atlantis Rise Again?

I think the Lemurian culture was much older than Atlantis and were very advanced and intelligent. Atlanteans were, as you say, technologically advanced in that they had small flying machines and something similar to electricity for power. In one book I read, the air space over the city was littered with individual flyers. At night their city was lit up as if by electricity. This is not too far fetched, since archaeologists have found ancient lamps that lit up as if battery powered. The cell was still intact and the residue of some liquid, when studied and reconstructed, actually lit up the lamp like a battery-powered flashlight. These lamps were found in an ancient Egyptian tomb.

I have seen the history channel or Nova where they discussed these "batteries." They say a lot of knowledge was lost when the library at Alexander was destroyed. If something were to happen to civilization today, we would lose a lot also. Mankind would probably take a huge step backward.

Like we did. That is why it is so important to protect the arts and culture and history. To lose the history, stories, craft techniques, would be so sad. To respect nature and leave it as you found it is just one way to protect what we have now. When people find petroglyphs and artifacts from the past, they should be left alone, not touched and let the experts examine them without removing them from where they are because they tell a story of the past.

No one has ever proved that Atlantis existed or that the people were highly evolved because there is no trace of it that we know of. I wonder if something were found, if it could actually be termed or proved to be Atlantis.

I wonder if the disapperance of the Island was due to volcanic eruptions? I think that is one theory.

I found a site that has some very interesting theories based on Plato's geographical descriptions of Atlantis. At this site, they have a criteria chart of the geographical location possibilities and Bolivia seems to get more points than anywhere else.

Scroll down to the 2005 Milos Atlantis Conference In Greece and view the chart. Very interesting, indeed!

Like the girl scout motto - leave it better than you found it. We as earthlings have not been good stewards of our planet.

No - we have not, Angie. It would be good for the very distant future if folks found positive and beautiful things from our culture and found that we left Earth in better shape.

So - what does anyone think about the possibility of Bolivia being the site of the Lost City of Atlantis? It does seem fairly logical going by the geograpical descriptions.

Now here is an interesting article on the site of Atlantis being in Bolivia.

It seems there are many similarities and coincedences that tie together. You can read about Atlantis in Bolivia at the following link:
