Platon kertoo dialogeissaan Timaios ja Kritias, että "Atlantiksen saarella oli suuri ja ihmeellinen valtakunta", joka hallitsi Afrikkaa Egyptiin asti, Eurooppaa Italiaan asti ja "osia mantereesta" (tämän uskotaan viittaavan Amerikkaan, erityisesti Keski-Amerikkaan, Peruun ja Mississipin laaksoon). On esitetty, että Atlantis ja sen itä- ja länsipuolella olevat pienet saaret muodostivat yhtämittaisen maasillan Amerikasta Eurooppaan ja Afrikkaan. | |||
W. Scott-Elliot’s ''Story of Atlantis'' presents the records of Atlantean civilization as revealed by clairvoyance. Scott-Elliot’s book is a compilation of the discoveries of a number of students who, according to Theosophist A. P. Sinnett, were “allowed access to some maps and other records ... from the remote periods concerned” to promote the success of their work. These maps, he says, had been physically preserved by those other than the races presently occupying Europe—presumably by the Adepts who tutored students of Theosophy, although Sinnett does not specify. | W.
