The Mystery Of Atlantis (myths, Celtic, Greek, Roman)

[SB Habakuk]

The Ancients knew it as the seat of Satoma- a blace called Tyrus (Thre RocK)

are the comparative myths of popular literature extensions of this view or plausible falsehoods

[Willamena]

Apart from Stargate SG-1, who are "The Ancients"?

[SB Habakuk]

I refer to post-catabol humanity and the books which they wrote
The Ancients- refer to original thought
as it was before Plato and all others diverted it

[Willamena]

Which comparative myths of which popular literature did you mean to discuss?

[SB Habakuk]

Don't be naive-
there are threads in Celtic, Egyptian , Greek and Roman myth and literature that refer to or mention Atlantis.

[Willamena]

Just out of curiosity, does your knowledge of Atlantis come from Atlantis Rising, by Patricia Cori?

Ahh, okay. Not exactly what I'd call "popular literature."

Can you tell us more about Satoma, please, and then knowing something of the myths of Atlantis, we can answer whether it seems plausible in comparison?

[SB Habakuk]

Popular because it was not first but it has shaped views of Atlantis among the learned

What is that bit in bold above, pray tell? Explain, thanks.

Secondly, SB Habakuk, please be clear on your sources for this Atlantis info, tell us about them.

Lastly, Willamena is the virtual antithesis of "naieve", as you will discover if you read her stuff...
