Dear - - BRIG,

I think the Punishment or Term" Carrying the World" has an Allegoric meaning,

You can check that notion yourself because the TEMPLE of POSEIDON was supposed to have a Tree of undefinite Sort, that MARKED the CENTRE of the Earth.

Otherwise in the Temple innercourtyard there was a " PILLAR" that stood for the Middle-Earth.

Differently said, in the time of King-Atlas the Atlantis(-Metropolis) was the bench mark for a kind of Londen Greenwich MERIDIUM that marked or carried the Heavens in a geometrical fashion so
to speak.

This could be compared to the OMPHALOS or Ben-Ben-Stone-Pillar that was shone upon one day in the year and geometrically represented the Middle of the Universe

The assyrian Kings Title LORD of the FOUR Corners of the World pertained to some cntrally FIXED WIND-DIAL supposedly situated at the Temple court of Poseidon. For what purpose?

Most SEASON's books were designed to seek-out the right time to seed and to reap corn/wheat etc

Maybe this Astrolabe or Heaven's Globe at Atlantis was designed to forecall the yearly Higtide Floods or Recurrent TSUNAMIES ?
