Dear........ BIANCA, most Atlantologists seek Atlantis as an ISLE that Collapsed under water,
but in my point of view PLATO described an extinct VOLCANO,
that collapsed which was connected to a lagoon with Elephants.
The late Prof Aryoso dos Santos shared my view that Atlantis was not an ISLE in Mid-Ocean.
of lately, a growing number of Atlantiologists are seeking Atlantis Isle
not any more in the Mid-Oceanic region but at the perifery
WHAT made them change their minds ?
Prof Aryoso made a big mistake by assuming that Atlantis had a sub if Tropical climate
and would still have that which could only be in Indonesia
but he simply forgets that climates are not stable
and that if Atlantis had indeed the present climate reigning
in indonesia, it would HAVE had to be in some other part of the globe.
FRANKINCENSE- TRADEIn and around Ras-Aden there are wadies that are ancient and from a different Climate epoch
indicating that at same point in time ADEN also had a sub-tropical Climate supporting a Nation
Sure it is a desert now.
But the Government of Yemen arab socialist Republic,
has repaired the 1500 years old breaches in the Marib Dam
to reincarnate theiwaterbarrier, that gave it's name to the Hesperid garden
Hesperis garden is the name given to the recreated bawaterbasin fields
at MARIB- Dam in SAANA to re-grow the Boswellia Frankincense tree culture
that used to be there as late as 570 ad,
when the Dam broke for the last time and was repaired by the ethiopian general ABRAHA,
in the " Year of the( White-) Elephant.
Sincerely,
