    The above video for Frisland - very interesting, agreed. This is the best candidate I've seen. It is a little far north, as Billy points out, but it ticks many boxes and is a good match for Plato's Atlantis.

    Pythagorean legacy is gradually appearing; however, untangling of a reality gone astray complicates the references such as Atlantis. Laurency wrote a good number of essays, compiled into books which are now PDFs, available online.

    I scanned for an excerpt, among many, which contain the key word Atlantis, to post on this thread. These texts always apply the hylozoic hypothesis, so that most of these writings use specialized terminology, where the reader is encouraged to study the many PDFs, (rather than to skip over ‘esoterics’.) The following sample of “Pythagorean history” uses more readily evident words.
    Quote 22.22 The Esoteric History of Mankind: Generals

    The history of mankind ever since the passing of the monads from the animal kingdom to the human kingdom is the account of human consciousness development and of the use human beings made of the material resources at their disposal and the energies permeating their envelopes. That history is by and large the story of the mistakes made by the ignorance of life and blinding egoism in all relations of life.

    Mankind, consisting of about 60 thousand million individuals, is divided into a series of classes of consciousness determined by the times at which human monads passed (by transmigration, causalization) from the animal to the human kingdom.

    The age classes, in their turn, are divided into clans consisting of individuals who causalized at the same time. Clans are of different sizes, generally speaking a couple of million individuals each.

    The oldest age classes transmigrated on other globes and were transferred to our planet at different turns. The youngest age class became human beings slightly more than 21 million years ago. It is still at the stage of barbarism.

    The history of physical mankind extends about 21 million years, that of Lemuria about 17 million years, that of Atlantis about 6 million years, and the history of the Aryan continents about 100 000 years.

    The “powers of incarnation”, who supervise the rebirth of individuals, see to it that human beings are given opportunities to incarnate when there are prospects for them of learning something from their incarnations. Therefore: what looks as if mankind developed continuously is due to the incarnation of clans at successively higher stages.

    22.23 Esoteric History: the Last Twelve Thousand Years

    The history of the present mankind began at the destruction of Poseidonis in the year 9564 B.C.E. (the vernal equinoctial point in the constellation of Cancer). The few remnant groups of people who survived the catastrophe, the tidal wave that washed over the continents and the very severe winter that followed and lasted three years, were utterly unable to build any new civilization. No esoteric historian has told us anything about the five thousand years that followed immediately on the catastrophe. It is small wonder that the historians grope in the dark.

    The esoteric historians of the future will tell us what human life really was during the last five zodiacal epochs since Poseidonis went down and the planetary hierarchy retreated and left to mankind to manage its own affairs.

    During that period comprising about twelve thousand years, mainly clans at the stage of barbarism and the lower civilizational levels were made to incarnate. And these must be given opportunities to orient themselves without aid and so be forced to self-activity. The results are seen in our so-called history of the world, which generally (to those who can see) demonstrates naked barbarism. The turning-point seems to have occurred during the 16th century as opposition to intellectual tyranny increased, whereupon the French Revolution marked a peak in the process of emancipation, which appears to have gained speed in our times. The two world wars entailed a general chaos in political, social, economic, and cultural respect. The old idiologies are now on their way out, and mankind is desperately seeking after resources for its reorientation. We experience the same chaos as the one at the transition from the zodiacal epoch of Aries to that of Pisces. Discerning people should have no difficulty in seeing that the Piscean epoch of 2500 years was an epoch of barbarism.

    The esoteric knowledge orders have certainly always existed, but only during short periods, epochs of cultural noontide in certain nations of India, Egypt, Greece, and Rome did they have opportunities of influencing a certain cultural stratum who could then shed lustre over their age.

    About 85 per cent of the mankind incarnated in our times are at the stages of barbarism
    and civilization. The remaining about 15 per cent at the stages of culture and humanity are exceedingly restricted in their consciousness development by having to incarnate in highly unsuitable, disorienting environments. In most cases, only in the sixth age of life (when they are 35–42 years old) do they arrive at that reorientation of their life view which enables them to reconquer the level they previously attained. Many have become so absorbed by life tasks they have assumed that they never manage to have the time for rethinking so as to set them- selves free from idiologies they have been taught to accept.

    What is promising in the new zodiacal epoch, the Age of Aquarius, is that the esoteric knowledge has been permitted for publication, so that the intellectual élite at the stage of civilization (who are leaders in various respects) are afforded the opportunity to orient themselves in reality by means of an altogether superior working hypothesis. It will take time, of course, until all the old ingrained idiologies (especially the theological ones), which are anchored in emotional consciousness, have been finally eliminated. The purge proceeds apace, however, regrettably with exaggerations in those who have seen that the old views are untenable but have not yet found a firm basis of knowledge.
    Laurency says much more about locations and phases of Atlantean demise, along with the deeper politics, which still haunts mankind today. These writing are inextricably interspersed with the larger subjects, like the meaning of life and the unscrambling of mental states. Books can be downloaded and essays individually searched for keywords, but for me, this became redundant, because reading the whole books offline was so absorbing, (after fully archiving PDFs in my discs). Thereafter, searching was incremental, while reading each file, each day. Specialized words require plenty of repeated replaying/rereading and looking up definitions of other references. Then sleeping on it all, as time passes, so that the subconscious may properly digest materials. (PDF to MP3 makes continuous reading possible while at work, using wearable player and occasionally writing key phrases on writable scraps, to study offline at my desk. The secret here is to search for phrase inside quotation marks like so “_______”, (copy pasted, phrase segment). As i chose a life style of physical labor which allows this routine).

    Laurency expands extensively on Platon (ancient Greek spelling of Plato-Latin-Anglo). We are informed that only the harmless information is presented, to avoid misuse of aspects addressing deeper physics (and it’s possibility of further damaging abuses). The source of genius is also described in surprising ways, which might at first discourage our enterprising notions; but, in the log run, pacify our wild spirit, if we suffered from that.

    Almost nothing on the internet linking friesland with Atlantis. If anyone finds anything please post it. An excellent hypothesis and look forward to future videos.

    I have tried to look at the Ocean topography of friesland using google earth but my graphics card won´t allow it. However any theory of Atlantis being linked to Irish mythology/ has always interested me.

    I will leave with a photo of the Hill of Tara. Conor Newman, an archaeology lecturer at the National University of Ireland at Galway announced that he had located a massive subterranean temple at Tara. What they uncovered eventually at the crown of the hill was a huge, oval-shaped monument measuring about 170 meters at its widest point. Around it is 300 postholes measuring two meters wide.

    Tara is the prehistoric home of the magical Tuatha Dé Danaan and brought with them four treasures or power tools:

    the (S)tone of Destiny
    the (S)word of Destiny
    the Cup of Destiny
    the Staff or Spear of Destiny

    There is a pretty old book on the subject written in a unique script that concerns it and we have posted about it before. This is it, Oera Linda. I don't recall it being a stand-in for Plato's Atlantis, but, is similarly classed as a relatively recent land mass now submerged.

    Ireland also has its own legend of the mythical phantom Island of Hy-Brasil which has also been connected to Ireland's lost Atlantis.
    https://www.ancient-origins.net/unex...ireland-003608

    Quote.
    Hy-Brasil was an island which appeared on ancient maps as early as 1325 and into the 1800s. On most maps, it was located roughly 321km (200 miles) off the west coast of Ireland in the North Atlantic Ocean. One of the most distinctive geographical features of Hy-Brasil on those maps is that it often appears as a circle with a channel (or river) running east to west across the diameter. Stories about the island have circulated throughout Europe for centuries with tales that it was the promised land of saints or a paradise where an advanced civilization lived. In Irish myth, it was said to be clouded in mist except for one day every seven years when it became visible but still could not be reached.

    Snippet:
    Myths and Legends About Hy-Brasil
    There are many myths and legends surrounding Hy-Brasil. In some of them, the island is the home of the gods of Irish lore. In others, it is inhabited by priests or monks rumored to hold ancient knowledge which allowed them to create an advanced civilization. Some think that St. Brendan's famous voyage to find the “Promised Land” may have been Hy-Brasil.

    Snippet:
    one famous UFO encounter, known as the Rendlesham Forest incident, a strange craft is reported to have landed outside a U.S. military base in the U.K. Sergeant Jim Penniston claims to have touched this craft and telepathically receive 16 pages of binary code into his mind. He wrote down the code the next day and had it translated decades later. The code was said to list very specific coordinates of Hy-Brasil and listed the location where ancient cartographers had it mapped. The message also listed the coordinates of several other ancient sites around the world such as the Pyramids at Giza and Nazca Lines. At the very bottom of the message, coordinates of Hy-Brasil were listed again along with an origin year of 8100.

    For what it's worth mammoth tusks and bones as well as the tools humans used to hunt them are dredged up out of the north sea often enough to make it for sure elephants were there at one time in the past. Could they have been there on that isle before it sunk maybe? Perhaps a small species or some domestic mastadon type animal was there. Guess we'll have to do some digging to see.

    Wow, amazing photographs, and the whole thread is quite spectacular. Another hidden gem on Avalon.

    What she says at the bottom of the post about slavery in Mauritania is absolutely true (although the 4% rate is sometimes thought to be higher.) While slavery was outlawed almost four decades ago (the last nation on Earth to do so) it still persists as a practice, manly because the people who are slaves, have it in their mind to believe that is their destiny, that is their role to play here on Earth. I deeply hope that they will awaken to their potential as free human beings, just as the rest of us need to here on planet Earth.

    Below is her first report of her experiences.

    My own comment: it's clear from her photos how enormous this thing is, and how hard it is to make out the details from the ground. The French site she mentions, at the end of the post below, of the guy who took photos from altitude, is VERY well worth visiting. Recommended. His images are amazing. That page is here, and it may well merit a follow-up post of its own.

    From Iloveyou, our reporter in Mauritania:

    Been to Ouadane for 4 days and went to the crater - that’s what it is called here: le cratère - with a driver and a guide. On the ground there’s really not much more to see than anywhere around for the next few hundred (or 1800 to the north-east) miles, though extremely beautiful and impressive desert landscapes. We drove in a Toyota Hilux.

    1) Approaching the first ring, the blue stripe on the horizon.

    2) Climbing over the rocky hills, the next ring (the blue) is visible in the distance.

    3+4) Buildings in the crater center, closed now. Until around 2011/12 there was a camp, a shelter, where visitors could spend the night and have a meal.

    5) Madame Monod’s tree, where she built her camp while waiting for her husband to return from expeditions. Theodore Monod was the most famous French naturalist, who explored and researched the Sahara - and the Richat Structure already in the 1930s - from his first visit 1922 to his last one 1998 (aged 96).

    6+7) Climbing over rocks, leaving the crater, the outer ring on the horizon, again.

    There was a guy in Ouadane who had just flown over the crater with his paramotor at a height of 2500 m (8200 ft). His site is in French, but there you find also a series of nice pictures he had taken:

    Now I had just 4 days in the region, but I’ll definitely return in March, on my way back north. I’ve arranged that my hosts in Ouadane will drop me in the crater with a small tent and food/water and pick me up the next day. Will be back.

    I still lean toward Mauritania as the site of the original city. Speaking of city, that is the question really isn't it? Was Atlantis a continent? Or was Atlantis a city? See I always was thinking city. Therefore if so then in my mind the "Island" of Atlantis could easily be the city itself situated within the center rings surrounded by water ways! Making it technically an island city within a bigger surrounding dry area. I mean we are talking a city the size of a 20 to 30,000 population that spanned out and was surrounded by water right? Not a continent so much as a city but it seems all the people want to find this continent. Even some of the shows and books talk of the city Atlantis. Which I take it means, City of Atlas literally so there is that description in the name, 'city' once again.
    The genius consistently stands out from the masses in that he unconsciously anticipates truths of which the population as a whole only later becomes conscious! Speech-circa 1937

    Here (and in the next 3 posts) are the photos he took. That's quite something that he did.
