Atlantis: The Antediluvian World; Ignatius Donnelly (left). Published by Harper and Brothers 1882. Plato's story of Atlantis is given....allegedly left to him by his ancestor, the Athenian lawgiver Solon, who lived around 600 B.C. Solon learned about the pre-historic civilization from Egyptian priests during his residence by the Nile..."Now, in the island of Atlantis there was a great and wonderful empire, which had rule over the whole island and several others, as well as over parts of the continent....Libya...as far as Egypt, and Europe...The vast power gathered into one to subdue at one blow our country and yours...then your country shone forth...alone....She defeated and triumphed over the invaders...But afterwards....in a day and night...the island of Atlantis....disappeared and was sunk beneath the sea..." P.11. The priests explained that the sinking of Atlantis caused "that great deluge of all" (P.9) which swept over Greece and most of the pre-historic world thus obliterating its memory of former times. The said the sea beyond the "Pillars" (Strait of Gibraltar) became blocked with mud.

On page 76 Donnelly gives an original Chaldeo-Babylonian edition of the flood which George Smith (right) deciphered from cuneiform tablets exhumed at Nineveh...considered to have been written around Abrahams time. In essence, the story says the deluge was instigated by the god's Bel and Adar, but argued against by some of the others. A god named Ea warns the man named Khasisatra (Noah?) and teaches him how to build a boat, into which he gathers all his worldly goods, domesticated and wild animals, and sons of the people....and closes the door. The terrible events that follow resembles the explosion of a nuclear bomb when a huge, thundering cloud swells up into the sky making the earth "become without luster...like a desert"....Then a monstrous wave, that even frightens the gods, breaks over the land and turns humanity into mud, their bodies floating like seaweed on the water. The vessel comes to rest on a mountaintop and Khasisatra goes out to make a burnt offering which attracts the attention of the gods who circle above him "like flies." Bel also sees the man and becomes angry with his college's and wants to kill the survivors, but Adar and Ea intervene. Ea blames the destruction of the world on Bel's theological passions and suggests that Bel should not punish everyone for the offenses of one individual...That it would be much better to be remembered as a just lord. Bel is soothed and now walks onto the ship (indicating he's a physical being) and takes Khasisatra and his wife by their hands and announces to the others that he is going to take them with him to "live like the gods." Khasisatra said they were then carried away to a remote place at the mouth of the streams.

On page 89 Donnelly quotes historian Francois Lenormant who gives a very ancient Zoroastrian doctrine concerning the Deluge. Yima was warned by the god Ahuramazda to construct a square garden in which the germs of men, beasts, and plants were protected from annihilation. After the inundation...the message of safety was brought by the "bird Karshipta," the envoy of Ahuramazda. (Vendudid, vol.ii., p.46). The square garden sounds very much like a pyramid, in which grains from ancient times have been found perfectly preserved. The mention of the bird "Karshipta" carrying the envoy from an obviously physical lord seems to suggest it was some type of aircraft used by the divine kings. Even more interesting is the fact that Donnelly's book was written in 1882 before the discovery of the Atomic bomb and before UFO's were thought of.

 

Greek Mythology; Paul Hamlyn third edition published 1965. Paul Hamlyn Limited, London. Author gives an excellent version of the clash between the first race of men known as the "divine kings" and the new "gods." The symbolic legend says they were jealous and wished to reconquer the kingdom they'd lost. Although they were defeated by Zeus, their brethren took up the battle where they left off, after which a monstrous water-spout (Typhoeus) rose up and temporarily overwhelmed the valient warrior...who was eventually rescued by Hermes to renew the theocratic struggle. Although written in the form of a myth, it closely resembles the story of Atlantis's battle with ancient Greece that was related to Solon by the Egyptian priests. It's a story of rebellion within the "theocracy."

 

2. Ancient America; Notes on American Archaeology; John Baldwin (Right). Published by Harper and Brothers, New York 1872. P. 274-275. In 1862, at a meeting of the Royal Geological Society, sir Roderick Murchison praised James Wilson's discovery as being of the highest interest to physical geographers and geologists.

Atlantis; I. Donnelly. P 464-465. "We have seen in the chapter on Greek mythology that Dionysos was a son of Zeus and grandson of Poseidon, being thus identified with Atlantis. "When he arrived at manhood," said the Greeks, "he set out on a journey through all the known countries, even into the remotest parts of India, instructing the people, as he proceeded, how to tend the vine, teaching them the value of just and honorable dealings. He was praised everywhere as the greatest benefactor of mankind." (Murray's Mythology, p.119)

4. Atlantis: I. Donnelly. p.465. "In the Sanscrit books we find reference to a god called Deva-Nahusha, who has been identified by scholars with Dionysos. He is connected with the oldest history and mythology in the world. He is said to have been contemporary with Indra, king of Meru, who was also deified, and who appears in the Veda as a principal form of representation of the Supreme Being. The warmest colors of imagination are used in portraying the greatness of Deva-Nahusha. For a time he had sovereign control of affairs in Meru; he conquered the seven dwipas, and led his armies through all the known countries of the world; by means of matchless wisdom and miraculous heroism he made his empire universal." Ibid., p.287).

 

On page 466 Donnelly quotes John Baldwin's "Prehistoric Nations" p. 291, in which Baldwin declares that Pururavas, Nahusha, and others had no connection with Sanscrit history since they are referred to in ages long anterior to the Sanscrit immigration. He mentions that "Pururavas was a king of great renown, who ruled over thirteen islands of the ocean, altogether surrounded by inhuman (superhuman) personages; he engaged in a contest with the Brahmans, and perished. Nahusha, mentioned by Maull, and in many legends, as famous for hostility to the Brahmans, lived at a time when Indra ruled on earth. He was a very great king, who ruled with justice a mighty empire, and attained the sovereignty of three worlds. Being intoxicated with pride, he was arrogant to Brahmans, compelled them to bear his palanquin, and even dared to touch one of them with his foot, whereupon he was transformed into a serpent." Here we see a change in the personality of Dionysos from greatness to conceited arrogance....not unlike the biblical Lucifer. On page 464 Donnelly mentions that in later times Dionysos was converted into Bacchus, the dissolute god of wine....

6. Legends Of The Jews; Louis Ginzberg (left). Vol.V, p. 126. Adam's grave....Mount Moriah, forms the gate to Paradise. This is clearly stated in the Melchizedek fragment 2. 35-36: "In the center of the earth, where Adam was created, there shall be his (Melchizedeks) grave...where Adam buried his son Abel." It is also stated in Zohar 1, 56b, that Adam chose a place for his grave, in accordance with the rabbinic legend, the cave of Machpelah...which is allegedly (Mount Moriah) located near Jerusalem, but in the discussions no one really knows where it actually is. However another Melchizedek fragment referred to on page 117 (fragment 3.35) declares that he, king and priest shall be in the place Ahuzan, that is to say, in the middle of the earth where Adam was created." Vol.1, pl129 says that it is the same place where Enoch flew away in the fiery chariot that killed those who were watching. Vol. V, p.106 mentions that Adam and Eve, who had both been created outside of Paradise, did not enter it simultaneously, that is, Adam entered Paradise when he was  forty days old, while Eve did not arrive there until she was eighty days of age...Actual ages are questionable.

 

Vol. V, p.103 gives a discussion of Adam and Eve's clothing that were of a superior and unusual kind. The garments were made at the twilight of the 'first Friday (Sabbath), hence it belongs to the primordial creations, on account of which both Adam and his descendants wore them as priestly garments at the time of the offering of the sacrifices....

Anacalypsis; G. Higgins. Vol.II, p. 269. "I have no doubt that the first governors of nations were priests....Melchizedeks, or King-priests."

7. Atlantis; I. Donnelly. p.131. "Herodotus tells us (Euterpe, exlii) that, according to the information he received from the Egyptian priests, their written history dated back 11,340 years before his era, or nearly 14,000 years prior to this time. They introduced him into a spacious temple, and showed him the status of 341 high-priests who had in turn succeeded each other..."

The Children of Mu; James Churchward. Published by Paperback Library Edition, New York 1968. p.130. (Diodorus: History, Vol. I, p.50) "The Egyptians themselves claimed that their ancestors were strangers who in very remote times settled on the bank of the Nile, bringing with themselves the civilization of their mother country, the art of writing and a polished language. They had come from the direction of the setting sun and that they were the most ancient of men."

10. Atlantis; I Donnelly. p.27. "AElian, in his "Varia Historia" book iii, chap.xviii, tells that Theopompus (400 B.C.) related the particulars of an interview between Midas, King of Phrygia, and Silenus, in which Lilenus reported the existence of a great continent beyond the Atlantic, "larger than Asia, Europe, and Libya together," which is the same description Plato gives for Atlantis in his Dialoges. However, Theopompus stated that a "race of men called Meropes dwelt there, and had extensive cities..." Searching for the original name of South America's "Peru" (Ency. Britannica etc.) revealed it is unknown. I suspect it was Meru, but after the Spanish conquest by Pizarro, the "M" was replaced with a "P."

 

On page 171 Donnelly says..."the people who inhabited Atlantis were the Meropes, the people of Merou." "Francois Lenormant insists that the human race issued from Upa-Merou, and adds that some Greek traditions point to 'this locality...particularly a certain expression which can only mean 'the men sprung from Merou."

 

11. Atlantis; I. Donnelly. p.171. In the Nahuatl language "atl" signifies water, war, and head.

 

12. Encyclopedia Britannica; 1968. Vol.1,p.900. Andes name derived from "anti," the Quechua word for "east"...a name applied by the Indians to the area east of Cuzco (Peru). "Anta" means copper."

 

13. The Lost Continent of Mu; Col. J. Churchward. p.141. Colonel Churchward (right) says the equilateral triangle was the original design of the sceptre. "Legend says it's origin came out of the geographical make-up of the Motherland, which consisted of three separate areas of land, which were geographically called the Lands of the West. Legend says that they emerged at different times, one following the other. To explain this to the then undeveloped minds of the greater part of men, it was taught that three separate attributes of the Creator were instrumental in the emerging of the three lands, but only the Creator was involved....The equilateral triangle (trident) was selected as a visible figure through which man could see and understand the conception of a Triune God."

On page 120 Col. Churchward describes paintings found by Prof. Kosloff in a tomb fifty feet below the surface at Khara Khota (published in the American Weekly)..."They are paintings on silk and represent a queen and her consort in a sitting posture. On her head is a three-pointed crown with a disc in the center with three sets of rays emanating from it. Behind her body is a large disc, the sun. At the back of her head is a smaller disc, an inferior sun. The large disc symbolizes Mu (Meru), the small disc the Uighur Colonial Empire. The crown on her head, a sun with rays on one half only, shows the escutcheon of a colonial empire. In her left hand she carries a sceptre, the ends of which are in the form of a trident...three points...the Motherland...numeral."

 

Atlantis; I. Donnelly. p.26. "The three pronged scepter, or trident of Poseidon (first king of Atlantis) reappears constantly in ancient history. We find it in the hands of the Hindoo gods, and at the base of all the religious beliefs of antiquity."

 

Anacalypsis; Godgrey Higgins. "The God of Abraham, of Melchizedek, of the Brahmins, and of the Persians, originally, or about the time of Abraham, was one, precisely the same divine triad or trinity...three persons and one God. Vol. I, p.94.

14. The Children of Mu; J. Churchward. p.134. "An old Egyptian writing says: 'Isis can never die although from age to age her vestments may change.' In other words, she may be known under different names among different peoples and ages." (Next Churchward quotes Rider Haggard concerning Isis). "Behold me. I am thy lost spirit, but thou, O Egypt, did not create me, for I created thee by a divine command. I am she whom men know as Isis here upon the Nile, but whom all the world and all the worlds beyond the world know as nature, the visible garment of the Almighty God. Yet I remain and thou remainest, O Egypt. Aye, though we be called by many names in the infinite days to come, as we have been called in the infinite days that are gone, ever shall we remain."

 

On Page 135 Churchward writes: "Isis was the symbol of the moon...her head ornament during religious ceremonies...the ancient symbol for the feminine principle of the creator." Isis symbolized the visible world or reflection of the spiritual one....comparable to the moon reflecting the light from the sun.

 

Old Testament; Eve...mother of all living....helpmate of mankind. Gen. 3:15 indicates she symbolized the early church. Compare with Galatians Chapter four...Throughout the New Testament "Woman" symbolizes the church, as a virgin, harlot, etc. according to her values, reflecting light from the Creator. The Hebrew translation of Adam's "help mete" is "one who goes before" suggesting the help mete was supposed to show him the way.

 

New Testament; Rev. 12:1. "And there appeared a great wonder in heaven; a woman clothed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and upon her head a crown of 12 stars." Beautiful symbolic term showing the beginning of a new religion "clothed with the light of the sun," with the old corrupted Egyptian religion under her feet. Revelation 17 shows a powerful political church seeking favors from kings...again symbolized by a woman. It also shows that her basic doctrines stem from a very ancient priesthood.

 

"Is Mary the mother of God?" This was one of the main questions asked during the Inquisitions of Crusades to determine who was worthy to share in the "New Empire" of Christ. The Sabbath became "Sun-day" obviously relative to the ancient Empire of the Sun. Most of what we know about antiquity trickled down to us (via religious writings, epic poems, and tax records) through the laborious efforts of interpreters. Therefore, since we've witnessed twentieth-century despots writing history to further their cause, then it's perfectly natural to assume such chicanery existed in all ages, prompting select groups to preserve "knowledge" in secret places. This practice was strenuously pursued by the priesthood...their sacred writings passed from one generation to the next, not always understood, but never the less a tradition.

 

Encyclopedia Britannica. 1953, Vol.17, p.632. "In 1526 Francisco Pizarro entered into partnership with a priest named Hernando de Lugue for the purpose of exploring the west coast of South America."

At the same time (according to Garcilaso de la Vega) the ailing Peruvian monarch (Huayna Capac) called his eldest son Atahualpa to his bedside to prophecy the coming of the "strangers" at the end of the twelve Inca kings...he being the last. He requested his son not to fight against them because he could not win. By the time Pizarro and his men reached Peru, Huayna Capac had died, and Atahualpa had successfully seized the throne from his younger brother (whom he killed) by crushing all opposing factions. The new monarch and his army of 30,000 warriors were recuperating at the hot baths near Cajamarca, about the same time Pizarro and his band of 183 men left the coast and hastened towards the city for a confrontation. A mystery surrounds the behavior of the Inca monarch during that first meeting with the Spanish. Although he had thousands of warriors, whom he said would be armed, they made no effort to use weapons. They were massacred, and Atahualpa was captured and held for ransom after which he was executed. Did the surprise attack by the handful of Spanish soldiers completely catch them off guard, or did Atahualpa decide to take his father's advice? Was the Inca prophecy connected with Abraham's (Hebrew) grandson's Esau and Jacob?

 

Remember the story of these remarkably opposite brothers in the Old Testament's book of Genesis? The biblical version mentions that Esau (the first born son of Isaac) sold his birthright to Jacob (the younger son) for a bowl of soup. However, the "Jewish Legends" (Ginzberg, Vol. I p.321) explains the inheritance was the sacred "Caves of Machpelah" (at the center of the earth, or Meru) where Adam and Eve, Abraham and Sarah were entombed according to priestly tradition (Vol.V, p.126), a birth-burial tradition still maintained by the Inca when the Spanish arrived. The Jewish legend says that Jacob always wanted the caves. Catching Esau in a weak position, he made him swear by the life of their father, and sign a document before witnesses who also signed it....relinquishing his claim on the caves. Page 393 suggests he gave Esau money and presents for the caves.

 

However, it seems that God was not happy that Jacob secured Esau's birthright by cunning, so the descendants of Jacob had to serve the descendants of Esau (Vol. I, p.321) which is reversed in the Genesis version. Not only did Jacob secure the sacred burial place of the ancient priest-kings, but he masqueraded as Esau in order to receive the patriarchal blessing from his blind father Isaac. (Gen.27). Esau was obviously a reddish complexioned, hairy, bearded, auburn haired individual, while Jacob appears to have been lacking facial hair like most American Indians. According to Ginzberg's legends, the ancient men of the deluge period all had two wives. A favorite who was rendered sterile for sexual pleasure, and another "unloved one" for producing heirs).

 

Esau was so distraught over losing both the "birthright" and "kingship" to his deceitful brother that he begged Isaac to give him something also. The old Patriarch finally complied: "Behold, your dwelling shall be of the earth, and of the "dew of heaven" from above; and by thy sword shalt thou live, and serve your brother and it will come to pass that you will have dominion and break his yoke from your neck." (Gen.27:40).

 

Therefore, we again have the symbolic story of "the renewed two covenants of Abraham concerning the bond woman and the free woman defined in the New Testament's book of Galatians chapters 3 and 4. Although Jacob obtained all the legal rights to be priest-king, including the sacred mountain Meru, or Peru) at the center of the earth, Esau really had the spiritual birthright, which cannot be bought or stolen. Did Esau's ancestors return to Peru to reclaim the "Empire" for the Roman Catholic Church? According to Prescott's account, it was Pizarro's chaplain, Friar Vicente de Valverde who spoke the first words to the Inca monarch Atahualpa that fateful day at Cajamarca. The priest introduced himself and explained that the Spaniards came from a distant land to teach the true faith. He described the basic doctrines of Christianity, and the authority of the Pope over all the kings on earth; that the Pope commissioned the Spanish Emperor to convert the people of the western hemisphere. The friar concluded his talk by asking the Inca monarch to reject his own religion, embrace Christianity, and make himself a vassal of the Spanish Emperor, Charles the Fifth. After this little dissertation, the Inca king flew into a rage:

 

"The Christians believe in three gods and one god, and that makes four. I will be no man's tributary. I am greater than any prince on earth. Your emperor may be a great prince; I do not doubt it, and I see that he has sent his subjects so far across the waters, and I am willing to hold him as a brother. As for the Pope of whom you speak, he must be crazy to

talk of giving away countries which do not belong to him. For my faith, I will not change it. Your own God, you say, was put to death by the very men whom he created. But mine," he pointed to the sun on the horizon, "my god still lives in the heavens, and looks down on his children."

He then demanded the friar to show him by what authority he said these things, and the priest handed him the Bible. Atahualpa took it, riffled through the pages, and threw it down...and threatened to make the Spaniards repent of their wrong doings in his land. Pizarro gave the signal to his men hiding in the city, and they quickly massacred the unarmed Indians. (W. Prescott's Conquest of Peru).

 

When Pizarro and his men first reached the coast of Peru, they were eagerly greeted by the people who flocked to see the "children of the Sun," as they called them. Inca means "Son of the Sun." After all...their kings descended from the auburn haired gold beards (Corisapra) who built their ancient cities and roads...pre-Inca people who were so strong and tall that only time "could overwhelm them." (Road In The Sky, George Hunt Williamson, p.44; Atlantis, Donnelly, p. 394). The same description of the ancient Ads (Adamites?) who allegedly built the great monuments of Egypt. (Arab legends, Atlantis; Donnelly, p.277). It is noteworthy that the title "Phra" (Pharaoh) given the Egyptian kings meant "Son of the Sun." (Atlantis; Donnelly, p.358-359..."Ra was the sun-god of the Toltecs, Raymi, the great festival of the sun of the Peruvians, and Rayam, a god of Yemen.")

 

It is natural to assume that the ancient Peruvians thought the fair, bearded Spaniards were their "gods" returning. Even Pizarro's standard bore what could easily be mistaken to be the two plumbs (or serpents) worn in the headdress of the ancient kings that faced east and west....along with the noticeable tridents displayed as the lion's (3 toed feet. And remember that Pizarro represented the Pope, a " Son of the Son" (Sunday?) over all the kings of the earth according to Pizarro's chaplain. Thus we saw the bearded (Esau?) sons of Mary returning to claim Meru, the motherland of the Empire of the Sun.

William Prescott (Conquest of Peru) describes in detail the Inca traditions that were almost identical with the Knights of Christendom (including the cross) that surprised the Spanish invaders. Not only that, but the Inca's were devout keepers of their ancestry much like the Old Testament people. Donnelly writes that "Very recently Dr. Rudolf Falb has announced (Neue Freie Presse, of Vienna) that he has discovered that the relation of the Quichua and Aimara languages to the Aryan and Semitic tongues is very close; that, in fact, they 'exhibit the most astounding affinities with the Semitic tongue, and particularly the Arabic, in which Dr. Falb has been skilled from his boyhood. following up the lines of this discovery, Dr. Falb has found (1) a connecting link with the Aryan roots, and (2) has ultimately arrived face to face with the surprising revelation that 'the Semitic roots are universally Aryan.' The common stems of all the variants are found in their purest condition in Quichua and Aimara, from which fact Dr. Falb derives the conclusion that the high plains of Peru and Bolivia must be regarded as the point of exit of the present human race." (Atlantis, p.402).

Earlier, I referred to Dionysos, the grandson of Poseidon, who ruled Meru and twelve other islands of the ocean. (Ref. 4. Atlantis; Donnelly, p.466). The reference indicated that the Brahman's were his vassals before he was changed into a serpent. The rise of the Brahman's brings us to the story of Abraham, the grandfather of the twelve tribes of Israel. Popular sources (Genesis, etc.) relate that Abraham was the progenitor of the chosen people, the seed of the promised land, and first of the Patriarchs, the "Friend of God," and the Mohammedan "Father of the Faithful." His name means "exalted father." To rest in Abraham's bosom was the summit of eternal peace. He is regarded as Father not only to the Jews and Islamic people, but to the people of India he was a Brahman, or high priest, who praised the Supreme Soul. Brahma is the first person in the Hindu "trinity" with Vishnu, the redeemer, and Siva the destroyer.  The name Brahma originally meant "magic," which, after all, is the base of ritual. (Encl. Brit.) The aborigines of Peru said the pre-historic rulers were giant, bearded magicians (priests) who were later deified.

Of Abraham, Godfrey Higgins (Anacalypsis, Vol.I, p.387) writes..."Abraham, or Abram, or Brahma...If the letter A be changed, by metathesis, from the end of the word Brahma to the beginning, as is very often practiced in the oriental languages, we shall have correctly; or the

A might be only the emphatic Chaldee article, making 'the Braham,' or Brahmin...the identity of Abraham was first pointed out by the Jesuit missionaries. On page 390 Higgins continues, "when the Israelitish tribe, who were a sect of Brahmins, came into Syria, they would merely say that Abram came. The whole history of Abram, or Abraham, that is Abrm or Abrem, has a most mythological appearance. The reason for changing his name in Gen. xvii.5 is very unsatisfactory *The change made in the name of Abraham was by the addition of the vowel, the first name not having a vowel. This evidently mystical. I have a strong suspicion that, formerly, the vowels were only used when it was necessary to distinguish one word from another which had the same consonants, but a different meaning. In this case, the vowels in one of the words was inserted to distinguish it, as the modern Jews have since done with their points...and I am induced to think it looks like the reason of a person writing and not understanding the meaning of a name...not choosing to give the meaning of it, under the change of which some mystery was probably concealed."
