DEAR, GWENAs you may have noticed on my
8 MB TIMELINE ; the Dutch Text is on the Left preceding, the English Text on the right!( so click/move to the right-tophand-corner! to read the
English Summary please.)
Atlantis DATE is 1075-855 bc WHY?
Plato exaggerated all by a decimalpoint! This is not a digression or writing Error it was intentional:
it is plain for all to see that Plato intentionally exaggerated the Figures by multipying by 10, If and I am sure THAT you don't believe me, let us look at the simple EVIDENCE and put it for a GRAND JURY! Am I guilty of Fibbing?
10 Kings;
!0 islands;
10 artificial-Rivers; larger than
Two-Continents,
10.000 years ago; 2ooo.o
oo inhabitants( which could've been only 20.000 !)20.000 gold-Carts etc.
at the (
Horizontal, not vertical)World-Ocean( Oikumene=Commonwealth-)=Not the Atlantic but the
Indian-Ocean!
Maybe the
ancient historians have referred to
Gibraltar as the definite-"
Pillars"-of Hercules as facing
Gades/Cadiz/Gadeira/Gadara, but the harbour of Atlantis itselves was also named
Gad-Tara/ El-Ghadir=The Harbour!)So they were just the Port-Gates or Harbour
Promotories facing Two-Continents! So there goes your "Pillar"Theorie(-s)as mounds on BOTH sides of a Strait!
ATLANTIS litteraty means Holy-
ATHE; the "Land-of-
ATHE"more precicely the Flat-Table-Land of the Kingdom of
ATHE. The only Geographical reference to a land named
ATHE is in
ADEN.( from the name of ADEN-Province: ATHE only found in the "Philips-Atlas".)
The italians were the first colonizers of
EAST-Africa that drew maps with the (
Biblical)names of
now tiny villages that used to be Palacial Capitals in Biblical times(
1000-500 bc.) Since in modern Cartography Maps are drawn to a small- Scale those former Capitals whittled down to empty villages have been stricken from the map ( replaced by new larger Town-settlements.)and are thus historically virtually unknown.
For instance the GEO-names: Valley of
SITTIM, SODOM & GOMORA still exist in Ethiopia under their more original GEO-names: Valley of
SIDAMO( with
OGADEN=house of King OG!)Shea-
SODDU & Shea-
GHIMIRRAH are to be found in the present province of:
GEMU-GOFU; the Jewish Tribe of
Gilgud has it's base in
GILGUUDUUD in Somalia; The
'LAND 'O-GOSHEN' was not in the Black-Nile delta near
Caïro, but in the Blue-Nile-valley still named:
GODSHAM; or
GOZAN. Where the populace still speaks "GEEZE". Is that a coïncidence or did Mission-Bishop Frumentius re-name the Ethiopian parishes of
AZANIA(- AZAE of Plato's 10 Atlantean Kings!)to a biblical Geography
in 332 ad ??
The
connection to Atlantis with Arabia-Foëlix is that these Towns of:
ADEN & SUR, were the
Mother-Cities of their namesake
COLONIES: Sidon(= raS-AiDON/Saida!-Sion.) and TYRUS(= Tsur.) Jerusalem is thus a direct colony of
SION as the Daughter-of-Sion. Thus Sion is noneother that the
ADEN=EDEN of the biblical Paradise, corrupted over time from, Ras-Aden/Poseidon into:just"SION".
That you cannot find any reference to this in Classical Archaeology or that it differs from the classical Historians
is correct because it just occured to me last year
2005 The proof of the Pudding is taking "
Gibraltar"as a Latin
Translation Error, I know that this sounds
corny, but I explain again that WHO equates
Plato's :"ASIA"with present Turkey and not with Plato's ASIA
Major, which
is Arabia-Foëlix, must get his head examened! This is not a crusade for the Trut, I just appeal to your common sences!
Your answer is the genuine
classic comment on diverters of Plato's Atlantis Location: opposite the city of Gadiz/Gades. THOSE supposed Pillars of Hercules (Stupid-CapsLock!)-THAT flanked "Atlantis" are 180% degrees elsewhere on the Middle-East map. Thus for centuries the South of
Spain was taken for granted, to be
Atlantis-proper or by its alternative name: Hesperis
corrupted into: Hispagnia/ Hispagnola. But by
reading closer Marrocco or Marukesh appears to be Atlantis-proper hence the "
Atlas-Mountains"there! Which are a cartographic abberation! of Hekataios from 512 bc.
The
Spanish king Ferdinand himself
proclaimed Spain the HEIR of Atlantis and Marrocco the unfullfiled Bridal-Prize: called:
Kabira /Cabyla was the chosen Bride of King C
hebrus, although this happened back in
1055 bc, the Spanish king Ferdinand went to claim "
Spain's"Bridal-Prize by occupying the whole of Marrocco from:
1500-until in 1515 the rogue-Sultanat of Mauretania re-took it leaving to
Spain/Atlantis, only a small piece>
Spanish -Morroco at:Tangiers,
How will this dawn unto your perception slowly: that my single discovery is that,These socalled "Pillars-of-Hercules" were formerly called the FOUR Pillars of Chronos
from 1075 bc, until Hercules visit there in
855 bc.
In
855 bc Hercules/Herakles banged his club on the floor and separated
Europe from
Africa! So historians for 2000 years naturally assumed that this occurred at Gibratar ! But was it that obvious? No not by a long shot. because in Plato's time the only place called Africa in
AFRICA was Jubuti/ Land of the
AFARS & Issas, opposite: ADEN in Arabia(=EURIPPA.)
You see when Plato wrote his "Dialogue"
Treatise, in 366 bc for TYRANT DIONYSSOS-1 OF SYRACUSE (ON CICILLY) Damned CapsLock!) Plato was referring to the
Greek-cartography which
matched his geographi cal description.
Plato,
impossibly-could have refferred to the Roman-Cartography that the Roman Compilers used to describe Plato's
greek Cartography! And this -
impossible Transversion from greek Cartography to a fully 180%
reversed Roman Cartography is what Plato's roman/latin-readers did not fathom: They thought that long before the Romans all countries had Roman GEO-Names including the ones Plato mentioned, this is a folly notion
rather naïv even. a simple writing error send his readers barking-up the wrong tree for 2000 years!
New-York as a name started only in
1666 no sooner you know! Suppose that you had not known that the former name was New-Amsterdam, that You would accuse me of telling
a Fib! But "New-Amsterdam? YES I knew that( You think!)
Did it not occur to You, Gwen, as a
seasoned educated amateur/
Atlantologist, that the sentence:"
Inbetween = Mezo-the Continents of
Asia(-Minor?) and
Lybia(-interior?) was this
Isle of Atlantis', means actually NEVER in the Atlantic-Ocean?!)( Columbus who started the Hoax of Atantis-in-America, held his arabian map of-indeed-Atlantis
upside-down with South on top, leading Columbus straight to: "West-India" Brazil+ Antillies!
So
Columbus and America and Atlantean-Spain are out! Modern (=Roman!)Lybia & Asia is when taking the Gibraltar option as dubious, definitely
with-IN the
Mediterranean, rather Opposite Athens or "Salamis"'
Actually
I am kidding, bringing-up the real Location slowly, remember! The Greek
Asia was Asia-
Major which is present-day Saudi-
Arabia, YOUR notion of Asia(= Asia-
Minor) did not exist in Plato's time it was then a
part of Persia which the Romans conquerred Re-naming it ASIA-
Minor only in in
133 bc when
King Attalus-3 of
Pergamum presented 50% of Turkey to the Romans!
So
for the love of God, how can anyone assume, that Plato in his geographic-Location of Atlantis, could ever have meant ASIA-
Minor!? Arabia-
Foëlix ( wrongly spelled as Arabia-
Felix=Happy fortunate Arabia.)was Saudi-Arabia because it was a pretentious Name,THEN but it is quite opposite ASIA-Minor!
Are You still holding on that ancient
DOGMA of the (TWO-)Pillars of Hercules were
in Gibratar opposite Cadiz? whilst THAT should be by the realignment of the Upside-down-Map-position, be thus: Perim/
Bab-el-Mandab-Strait Where Captain Hanno in 600 bc departed for his circumference, NOT of the whole of Africa but onlu until Jibuti and the South-Arabia Coast called the ( S-)
AFFARA-Coast from which S
AFFARIES &
CARAVANS were launced and where the KARA mounds were and the
AFFAR-TRIANGLE, that gave it's name to the Whole of the African(= IVRIKIYA) Continent!
How about Lybia ? , in Plato's time THIS Lybia(=
interior) also did not Exist! Plato rather meant the GREEK-"
Lybia-sub-Sive-Aethiopia"meaning presentday Erytraea/and even the whole of East-Africa including: Somaliland & Azania/Ethiopia !
Inbetween those Two "
continents or just Coastal-Area's lay that
Isle of Atlantis, but we now know that By
Isles (=NESOS,)Plato meant
Promotories with Extinct Volcano's connected to the
mainland by an
isthmus in Modern Jargon by
a silted-over slough ( named:
Shefala /Sephela, in antiquity)or
coastal-plain called a
TOMBOLO. A geophysical freak or feature of Nature
above tectonic fissures, : Aden-Ras; Mascate-Ras, Fartak-Ras etc. which almost every "RAS"i n the Gulf-of-ADEN has. Any Earthquake would than trigger not Fire but a ( methane-hydrantgaz-propelled water spout.)
The biggest "
Isle"in THAT area is RAS-Aden
-Crater an extinct Mud-Volcano that matches the measurements of the Royal Metropolis of Atlantis"
Isle" namely
2.000 by 3.000 stades/Stadia:
20/30 Km
Plato also said that Atlantis was
drowned during a Spring-Flood thus during an extraordinary HIGH-
Tide and subsequently drowned and was washed into a mudsheol. Is there not something odd in this sentence?
Why are
scientists and especially
Oceanographers looking for Atlantis
UNDER water?
Are they too quick/hasty-impatiënt readers ? Cannot they read what it says? Did it not OCCUR to any-of-them that any
Flood is of a
temporary nature and that thus Atlantis has
risen again though not unscanted, and should logically be
above sea-level minus a bit of slit-Mud !?( today we would name this phenomenon a TSUNAMI,
Alas for the indigenes WHITE-Elephants in Atlantis the people killed them as causes or the bewitchers of the Evil Tsunami, when the Elephants becan to Whail like
SIRENS and an hour later the Tsunami started the onlookers -naturally-thought that it was not nature- but the
Elephants or rather as they were called THEN; the
Sea-Horses/Hippocampii, of POSEIDON, that caused the EarthQuakes and so they were
declared TABOO, in Egypt but not in the buddist countries where the stricken Ganeesha was honored as the white Elephant/
Luck-bringer instead of the Atlantean voracious-BEAST. When the Tsunami occurred Shiva was disturbed by the warning wailing of the Sirens or Flying-Elephants so he clipped their"Wings"and they descended and became the Himalayan Mountains!(
1075 bc.)
Sure, several writers that were
better readers than most! have assumed that Atlantis was in the Egyptian Sahara-Desert
like BENOIT( Tibesti-Hoggar-en Nag & Tassili-Mound in central-
Algeria-Erg.) and RIDER HAGGARD ("
She-")who supported the believe that the
Kabyl-Berbers & the Tuareggs were the survivers of the former
Atlantis of-the-Sahara.( Sir-)Ralph Fiennes the infamous Filmstar, whilst still a 2-nd Lieutenant and
Royal-archaeologist in Oman has found
UBAR-the Atlantis-of-the Sands in
SALALA/=Safara-Metropolis, which was:
OPHIR, that
GARDEN that King Solomon owned-in-Paradise>(= Atlantis!) So he was close by! Engineer
Stan-Deyo from Berkeley Univ.Calif. was also close in assuming that Atlantis was a part of French Somalia(=Jibuti), he too, mannaged to seek out and avoid, the mistake of naming the Pillars of Hercules "
Gibraltar."and was well aware that Bab-el-mandab was the greek rendering, a former landbridge
split apart during Hercules roaming as a mercenary/condottieri-general in
855 bc.
BUT WHO STARTED TO
PERPETUATE THE:"
GIBRALTAR-DOGMA"?
in 2003 this was the brazilian linguist:
GEORGEOS-DIAZ-MONTEXANO he
iniciated the notion that when we follow the latin text of Plato closely: Namely that Atlantis was NOT in MID-Atlantic-Ocean but surely at it's
perifery:thus,
not Bimini, but the Gibraltar Straits, but yet within the"Atlantic"than ,must have been at the
mouth of the Strait or Fretum of Gibraltar at the Atlantic side where the biggest Mud-Shoal was Cape Spartel 50 meters below Sealevel, but how deep UNDER the Mud itselve he could not say because that would be 150
or 100 meters lower. Since nobody believed him
Then, he started a
game in cahoots with
Collina-Girard who agree to issued
the same claim, in order that GEORGEOS could start an international smear campaign a classical polemic fight with a respectable Scientific, collegue; a donkey-fight, that reached the World-Press.
It is always a pleasure to witness/see/ hear a talkshow with an entertaining conversation like the ones with David Letterman; Sein-Feld or NBC's JAY LENNO, aapplied to Atlantis like a show simulating about the better arguments between Apple-MAC-intosh and PC-Microsoft-users: Both think they are right in that sence this POLEMIC between two scholars about the Location of Atlantis triggered 4 Atlantic Website owners to do the same;Since 2003, reason why I am now writing today about the only real Location of fabled Atlantis: RAS-Aden.
I contacted
SCI-FI-TV-Channel by Email, to Contract a contribution to their recent
Atlantis-Quest TV-Program, but the Editors, told me that I was not scheduled-in and besides IF I was the
real discoverer the other contributors freedom of speech would be in yeopardy and their"Scientific"contributions would be Worthless.and that would mean the death of the Program, so for various reasons My version was deemed
superfluous.
Since the clever Spartel-Hoax scheme of
GEORGEOS and Collina-Girard did not produce enough intrest, GEORGEOS devised
another clever plan: The FIRST World-Conference about the Location of Atlantis in 2005 on the isle of Melos once thought to be one of the 2 "Pillars-of-Hercules (= ERCULO)in Greece! the socalled:"promotories of:"TAENARUM and MALEAS"(=EU
MELOS which is, supposedly:
Milos.)as a passage in
Critias( 114A-B.)seems to indicate !
Nearly ALL
55 Oceanographic Atlantologists at: "Melos" chose for an Atlantis
UNDER (Sea-) water, GEORGEOS hench-men were the first to be doubted on his own conference! And the FIRST interview given on that Project, was of a Collegue-professor, of Collina-Girard who, on his own admitted since exclusively the greek Easychair Classicists & archaeologists and one american named
Sarmast, knew of the Locations of
secondary:"Pillars-of-Hercules"( like"Athos")That made Those at
Gibraltar(= Alph & Cabyl") suspicious, so that after this Conference, They now seemed the least probable location for "The Pillars".
So I consequently ask you, after you have seen/read the
sampled/compilated
evidence,
above AGAINST the"Pillars"at Gibraltar, because of a faulty translation from Greek to Roman/Lation geography, in view of this do you support the Perim-Bab-el-Mandab-Option, or do you not want to upset the applecart and keep following the
Bandwaggon of Gibraltar as-the-genuine-" 2-Pillars-of-General-Hercules"?
PS as Heracles did his 12 Labours mostly
in France & Italy for Erystheus of Mycena with Gibratar as his"Pillars"the consequence of taking Perim/Bab-el-Mandab"as the Pillars, is that most of his 12 Labours, were done in
EAST-Africa and EGYPT with
Eurystheus as King-of-ADEN and not of
Mycena( MIKENE.which was one of the half-dozen names by which Aden was also known in antiquity!)
