he third book in Atlantis Rising’s “For-bidden” series is set for release in March.

Forbidden Science published by Inner Tradi-tions/Bear will follow the bestselling For-bidden History and Forbidden Religion.From ancient technologies to free energy,the new volume will include the best of At-lantis Rising on the true story of science andtechnology as suppressed by the orthodoxscientific community and its collaborators ingovernment and the media.

Forbidden Science explores some of theless-traveled, even darkened, corridors be-neath the shining edifice of academic sci-ence. Included is evidence that, no matterwhat the mandarins of the establishmentwould claim, the truth is not nearly so exem-plary or easily disposed of. Explored aremany controversial notions supposedly de-bunked by conventional argument, if, in fact,they have been discussed at all. But, from thetrue function of the Great Pyramid and themegaliths at Nabta Playa to Immanuel Veli-kovsky’s astronomical insight; from zeropoint energy and cold fusion, to Rupert Shel-

The fragments are magneticand made of a combination ofelements indicating they camefrom outer space. Continuedgrowth around the perforationsshows that some of the bison sur-vived the event which happened between13,000 and 35,000 years ago. The evidencecomes on the heels of recent studies indi-cating that the Clovis people, long believedby some scientists to be the original humaninhabitants of North America, may have beenvirtually destroyed by an asteroid hit of somekind. It was once thought that the Clovishunted the mammoths into extinction.

dramatically changed the history of life.Cryptozoologist Loren Coleman points

out on his web site (http://www.cryptomundo.com) that the new discovery corrobo-rates the ideas of Sanderson as put forwardin an article for the Saturday Evening Postin 1960 in which he visualized the final mo-ments of the mammoths. Though Sandersonthought in terms of a volcanic event whichhe believed could have led to the kind ofsudden temperature drop which might have“quick-frozen” the massive beasts, his sce-nario could have been touched off by a colli-sion from space. Hapgood, on the otherhand, explained the extinction of the mam-moths as the result of a sudden displacementof earth’s crust, and Velikovsky believed thenearby passage of a comet, which later be-came Venus, could have caused such events.The common element is the idea of a suddenand cosmic catastrophe.

But even as NASA plots new expedi-tions to probe the mysterious origins ofour neighborhood, there are some whobelieve the agency suffers from a se-rious case of short-sightedness. Withthe current emphasis of the role ofgravity and vulcanism, could scientistsbe overlooking electricity? According toresearchers like Australia’s WaltThornhil, almost all of the unusual fea-tures observed by NASA’s probes, in-cluding strange cratering on the moon,ropelike rilles on Europa, great gasheson Mars, and even Saturn’s hexagon canbe explained as the effects of immenseplasma discharges caused by the arcingof electric current between planetarybodies and their moons. Such ideas areamong the many which are not takenseriously by NASA, but that does notmean they are wrong?

ASA’s quest to explain the workingsof the solar system has taken some

odd turns lately. On Mars, the appear-ance of strange spider-like patternsalong with features which are describedas “lace” and “lizard skin,” unlike any-thing known on earth, are leading tothe offering of new theories involvingthe cyclical release of carbon dioxidefrom reservoirs trapped beneath largeaccumulations of surface ice. Still no-body is sure just what is causing thespectacular and alien phenomena.

Currently NASA is planning a mis-sion to map the gravity of our moon, inhopes of learning what exists beneathits surface right down to the centralcore. The survey, it is hoped, will revealwhether there is sub-surface volcanicactivity and large concentrations of par-ticular elements or compounds likewater. In Jupiter’s neighborhood, a fu-ture mission is being sent to settlewhether there is a gigantic ocean be-neath the icy surface of the moon Eu-ropa. Here on earth, scientists aretrying to learn what Europa might belike by surveying sub-surface lakes inAntarctica (for more on the mysteries ofour south polar continent see Len

The cele-brated 16th century map of the Turkish seacaptain Piri Reis, which accurately depictsthe coast of Antarctica beneath the ice whichhas covered it for many millennia, is anotherwhich many believe to be drawn from veryancient and forgotten sources. At any rate,the maps provide distinct evidence of asource of advanced pre-diluvian geographicknowledge, the existence of which is deniedby most conventional historians.

Indeed, the Waldseemuller map providessupport for those who believe that theremust have been a great and secret body ofknowledge which guided many of the earlyexplorers.

Moreover it appears that the exis-tence of the Pacific Ocean on the other sideof the Americas was known years beforeBalboa reached it by land and Magellan sailedinto it. These details and others are clearlyrevealed in the remarkably modern map ofGerman monk Martin Waldseemuller whichwent on display in December at the Libraryof Congress in Washington, D.C.

ALTERNATIVE SCIENCE

• BY LEN KASTENn September, 1948 TimeMagazine published an ar-ticle about the theory ofone Hugh Auchincloss

Brown, then aged 69, titled,“Can the Earth Capsize?”Brown, an Electrical Engineerfrom Douglaston, New York,warned that the earth was likean “overloaded canoe,” becausethe accumulation of ice in theAntarctic caused it to be “bottomheavy,” and subject to an immi-nent polar shift. Time ran theshort news item because theywere impressed that the ultra-conservative New York Timeshad recently thought enough ofBrown’s alarming hypothesis toelaborate on it at length (“AntarcticDoomsday, An Editorial,” NYT September 1,1948). According to the Time’s article,Brown recommended “atomic blasting” inAntarctica to dissolve the excess glaciality,and prevent the inevitable coming catas-trophe. Brown had assailed congressmen,newspapers and magazines for years with hispredictions of an imminent doomsday, andthe need to allocate $10 million to nuke Ant-arctica. Probably, it was when he prophesiedthat New York City would be under waterthat the New York Times took notice.

Brown believed that such polar shifts oc-curred around every 6,000 years because theice accumulation at the poles caused theearth to topple over on its side such that pre-viously torrid parts of the globe becamefrozen over, and the polar areas became trop-ical. The axis of spin, however, remained atthe customary 23.5 degree tilt, but now withnew geographic poles. This polar flip always

Ioccurredsuddenly andquickly and wroughtincredible devasta-tion. He claimedthat this also ex-plained the so-called“ice ages” whichwere really just lo-calized phenomenain the new polar

areas. In 1967, whenhe was 88, Brown’sextensive notes and

research were incorporated into his bookCataclysms of the Earth (Twayne Publishers,Inc., New York). In the 290-page book,Brown cited copious geological proofs of histheory in terms of land formations all overthe world whose striations showed succes-sive epochs of differentiation of about 6,000years each. Perhaps his most convincing ar-gument for sudden climatic change derivesfrom the “wooly” mammoths found perfectlypreserved in the frozen tundra of northernSiberia. The famed Bereskovka Mammothwas found in 1901 at 66 degrees north lati-tude in Siberia, almost at the Arctic Circle.Half-chewed grasses were found in hismouth and 27 pounds in his stomach, whichmeans he died suddenly while eating. Thegrasses were analyzed and most were foundto be from a temperate climate. And he diedof suffocation. Brown reasons that the an-imal “perished in the super-hurricane anddust and dirt storm caused by the rapidmovement of the earth’s surface against the

eneath thousands of feet of ice,Antarctica, is home to a vast warm

water world which may contain athriving “Oasis of life.” According to adramatic report released in Decemberby National Geographic News (http://news.nationalgeographic.com), Antarc-tica is not a barren polar desert, afterall, but, indeed is a rich, complex envi-ronment where rivers larger than theAmazon link a series of “Lake dis-tricts,” which may teem with mineral-hungry microbes. For others, the pos-sibilities could be much greater, of-fering, perhaps, even the remains oflost civilization.

The buried lakes are contributingto the current rapid melting of Ant-arctic ice and creating what could bethe world’s largest wetlands. The lakesstay fluid, say scientists, because theice covers them like blankets, trappingthe heat which rises from the earth’sinterior. So far about 145 lakes havebeen found, and nobody is sure exactlywhat kinds of life they may host, but“bizarre new deep-sea creatures” havebeen found off the coast of antarcticawhich are believed to originate fromthe buried antarctic wetlands.

Covered by the ice for possibly mil-lions of years, the lakes, it is thought,will prove to be pristine environmentswhich may give scientists a glimpse oflife on a completely different evolu-tionary track than our own.

“This is essentially a whole newworld that ten years ago we didn’tknow existed,” said Michael Studinger,a geophysicist at the Lamont-DohertyEarth Observatory of Columbia Univer-sity in New York.

“If you peel back the ice sheet, youwould expect a watery landscape sim-ilar to what we would see on the sur-face of earth.”

Studinger plans to participate in amajor aerial mapping project in 2008which should offer a great deal of newdata about what may be found beneaththe ice.

Around 1949, Charles Hapgood, a 45-year-old professor of Anthropology and His-tory at Keene State College in Keene, NewHampshire, was asked by one of his studentsabout Atlantis. This intrigued Hapgood andprompted a nine-year investigation into an-cient geography. Hapgood ultimately devel-oped a theory of periodic displacement of theearth’s 60-mile-thick crust over the planetarycore, which resulted in polar shifts, and in1958 he published his book on the subject ti-tled Earth’s Shifting Crust. The foreword tothe book, basically endorsing Hapgood’stheory, was written by Albert Einstein shortlybefore his death in 1955. Einstein said, “Theconstantly increasing centrifugal momentumproduced in this way will, when it hasreached a certain point, produce a movementof the earth’s crust over the rest of theearth’s body, and this will displace the polarregions toward the equator.” Although thereis no evidence of this, it appears that Hap-good was influenced by Brown. If not, then itis truly remarkable that he would have cometo essentially the same conclusions by a dif-ferent route. Although Brown proposed anactual planetary flip while Hapgood theorizeda crustal slippage, the net result is basicallythe same—the poles get shifted to new plane-

where mediums supposedly com-municate with the deceased, for-tune tellers gazing into crystalballs, ghosts, haunted houses, andany number of other bizarre phe-nomena that seem better left tomidnight musings safely forgottenwith the break of dawn. Manypeople dismiss the paranormal outof hand, or will only discuss thistaboo topic in hushed tones whilemaking excuses for their passingcuriosity concerning such an em-barrassing subject. Yet virtuallyevery major religion of today isbased, to some extent, on para-normal phenomena. The HebrewMoses, who could talk to the Lordin the form of a burning bush,strike a rock and produce water,and part the Red Sea, was notalone among Old Testament char-acters to apparently manifest para-normal abilities (besides run-of-the-mill prophecy, clairvoyance,and healing. Consider, for in-stance, the story of Elijah and themiracle of a widow’s meager oiland food supply which was inexpli-cably replenished for many days).The Prophet of Islam, Mohammed,is reported to have healed the sickand summoned rain. The Buddhareputedly had well-developed psy-chic abilities, including the abilityto read minds and levitate. TheJesus of Christians performed nu-merous miracles, from walking onwater to raising the dead, sup-posed proof to the faithful of hisdivinity. Some Christian saints,following in their master’s foot-steps, have carried the miraculousto extreme heights; one example isSt. Joseph of Cupertino.

The Case of the Flying Saint,Joseph of Cupertino

According to well-documentedcontemporary reports, the seven-teenth-century Italian friar St. Joseph of Cu-pertino (Giuseppe da Copertino, 1603-1663)experienced numerous miraculous levita-tions during which he would literally travelshort distances through the air, later givinghim the appellation of the “Flying Saint.” Inone instance, during the Feast of the Na-tivity, Joseph is alleged to have suddenlyflown from the middle of the church to thehigh altar, a distance of about forty feet.Prominent persons of the time testified to Jo-seph’s odd flights. The Spanish Ambassador

Tfrom 1623-1644) that he rose into the air

and only descended again when so or-dered by a superior. (As a curious side

note, it was Pope Urban VIII who sum-moned Galileo to Rome in 1633 to re-cant his heretical notions that theearth travels around the sun.)

Levitations were not the onlyphenomenon in Joseph’s miracu-lous repertoire. It is said that hecould read other’s thoughts attimes, so he knew when peoplewere holding back a full ac-counting of their sins during con-fession. He is also credited withgifts of healing, and even pro-ducing rain during a drought.

Despite his miracles, and theincredible attention they attracted(Joseph was very popular with themasses during his lifetime; thechurch had to relocate him severaltimes, sometimes to secret loca-tions, attempting to forestall thecrowds that would often gather tosee him), Joseph was far from“perfect.” Intellectually challenged(or, to put it crudely, dull-witted),in modern parlance, he probablysuffered from some major learningdisabilities. Apparently he couldbarely read or write, and at timeshe would blankly stare off intospace or wander in a confuseddaze.

The veracity of the supposedmiraculous, or in modern termsparanormal, events centered onJoseph of Cupertino is not at themoment our concern, but ratherhow such events were interpretedby religious authorities and be-lievers. In the case study of Josephwe have a microcosm of the larger,often strained, relationship be-tween the paranormal and whatwe might term conventional ormainstream religion. Paranormalphenomena and religion have along, convoluted, intertwined rela-tionship, sometimes antagonistic(such as when paranormal featsare attributed to devils or witches)and sometimes mutually rein-forcing (such as miracles that areinterpreted to confirm true di-

vinity or sanctity). Far from universally em-bracing Joseph’s miracles, church authoritiesoften found them somewhat of anembarrassment.

Joseph’s flights were unannounced andapparently uncontrollable for him, at least ata thoroughly conscious level. UnexpectedlyJoseph might go into a trance-like ecstaticstate during a moving mass or festivity, oreven at the slightest provocation (for in-stance, a chance thought about the beauty of

move toward materialism began to takeshape during the 17th century, the so-called“Age of Reason.” What later came to beknown as “Darwinism” provided the rational-ists with their knockout punch against thesuperstitions of religions. While Wallace wasable to reconcile his views on spiritualismwith his views of evolution, most of the “en-lightened” of the day saw it as totally incom-patible and scoffed at such beliefs.

“I am well aware that my scientific friendsare somewhat puzzled to account for whatthey consider to be my delusion, and believethat it has injuriously affected whateverpower I may have once possessed of dealingwith the philosophy of natural history,” Wal-lace wrote in the preface of his 1875 book,Miracles and Modern Spiritualism. He wenton to say that his views on spiritualism werein no way inconsistent with “a thorough ac-ceptance of the grand doctrine of evolution,through natural selection…”

Born in Usk, Wales on January 8, 1823,the eighth of nine children of Thomas VereWallace and Mary Anne Greenell, Wallacewas forced to end his formal education at age14 due to financial setbacks suffered by hisparents. Around Christmas 1836, young Al-fred was sent to live with his older brother,John, in London, and then, the followingyear, he moved to Bedfordshire, to work forhis eldest brother, William, in William’s sur-veying business. In that trade, he learned ge-ometry, trigonometry, drafting, map making,building design and construction, me-chanics, and agricultural chemistry. He alsobegan taking an interest in the natural his-tory of the area, especially botany, geology,and astronomy. In late 1843, he accepted aposition at the Collegiate School in Leicester,teaching drafting, surveying, English, andmathematics. He took advantage of the li-brary there to read more about naturalhistory.

When his brother William died in 1845,Wallace quit his teaching position to run his


Darwin and Mr. AlfredWallace,” the introduc-tion began. “These gen-tlemen having, indepen-dently and unknown toone another, conceivedthe very same, very inge-nious theory to accountfor the appearance andperpetuation of varietiesand of specific forms onthe planet, may bothfairly claim the merit ofbeing original thinkers in

this important line of inquiry; but neither ofthem having published his views, though Mr.Darwin has for many years past been repeat-edly urged by us to do so, and both authorshaving now unreservedly placed their papersin our hands, we think it would best to pro-mote the interests of science that a selectionfrom them should be laid before the LinneanSociety.”

Perhaps the reason that Darwin is muchmore remembered than Wallace is that thewhole concept was brought to the generalpublic’s attention the following year, 1859,by a book, On the Origin of the Species, au-thored solely by Darwin. But a contributingfactor may be that Wallace was generallythought to have undergone a “change ofmind” during the 1860s relative to some ofthe ideas he shared with Darwin. It wasduring that decade that Wallace became in-terested in a fairly new quasi-religious move-ment known as spiritualism, which wasbased on communication purportedly fromthe spirit world transmitted through humansensitives called mediums. It was a philos-ophy that clearly seemed to conflict withthat of materialism, the emerging “enlight-ened” philosophy of the scientists andscholars of the day.

Materialism holds that matter is the ulti-mate reality in the universe. It is a philos-ophy that leans toward atheism and extinc-tion, denying the existence of a soul and thesurvival of consciousness after death. The

HiddenAgenda?

NASA is keeping manystrange secrets, says anew best-selling book

oing dark,” in espionageparlance, means hidingand ceasing to commu-nicate, as when a spy

goes to ground until things calm down.To “take it dark” means to remove some-thing from public view, meanwhile clan-destinely continuing to operate whateverthe asset may be. This can be as simple asmoving a suddenly sensitive discussionfrom an open radio channel to an en-crypted one, or the more complicatedfaking the breakdown of a satellite, oreven reporting its loss, but continuing toclandestinely receive the data. Accordingto Richard “Dick” Hoagland, the maverickspace expert, in his new book Dark Mis-sion (a best seller with both the New YorkTimes and Amazon.com) coauthored withMike Bara, these are the least of NASA’s“sins,” dating clear back to its beginning.

Hoagland, for over 35 years, a recog-nized authority on astronomy and spaceexploration, in the early nineties, au-thored The Monuments on Mars—whichfirst discussed the enigmatic “face” on theMars’ Cydonia plain. At various times heserved as a space consultant for all of themajor broadcast networks. Among hismany contributions to history and sci-ence, the best remembered is probably hisconception, along with Eric Burgess, ofMankind’s First Interstellar Message in1971: an engraved plaque carried beyondthe solar system by the first manmade ob-ject to escape from the sun’s influence,

“G

Pioneer 10. Carl Sagan acknowledgedHoagland’s contribution in an article forNature. The latter’s friendly relationswith NASA, however, ended some timeago.

“There has been a consistent, consciouseffort by NASA, since its inception,”Hoagland told Atlantis Rising in a recentexclusive interview, “to find and thenconceal verifiable evidence of mankind’sancient past, starting with the moon.”

That’s a grave charge to level against apurportedly transparent and benign ci-vilian agency, but Hoagland says he hasthe proof. We are referred to the NationalAeronautics and Space Act of 1958, thelaw which created NASA, Section 305(i),“...The National Aeronautics and SpaceAdministration shall be considered a De-fense Agency of the United States for thepurpose of Chapter 17, Title 35 of theUnited States Code...” Further, Section206(d) explicitly states “No [NASA] infor-mation which has been classified for rea-sons of National Security shall be in-cluded in any report made under thissection [of the act]...”

These revelations put the famous andoft pooh-poohed Brookings Institute Re-port into an entirely different light. Thereport, issued in the early days of NASA,had recommended that the spaceagency’s Administrator “seriously con-sider suppressing” evidence of extrater-restrial civilizations or technology foundduring NASA’s exploration of the moonand planets. Thus, Hoagland argues,NASA not only has the standard array ofbureaucratic tools to hide what it hasfound, but it can now invoke “NationalSecurity” and wrap itself in layers of clas-

sification, some so deep that outrightlying is permitted to protect the secrets!

On Tuesday, October 30, 2007, at theNational Press Club in Washington, D.C.,The Enterprise Mission—a private re-search and public policy group led byHoagland, held what was called a “review”of “NASA … its 50 years of cover-ups andhidden solar system data ….” Among thequestions raised: Why does NASA con-tinue to represent itself and its programsas “civilian space research?” Why did aNASA official direct Ken Johnston—aformer NASA contractor in charge ofApollo photos in NASA’s Lunar ReceivingLaboratory during the Apollo Program—to destroy copies of official astronaut pho-tographs taken on the moon …? DidApollo astronauts discover and bring backto Earth bona fide “ET artifacts” salvagedfrom the moon? And, was one of those ar-tifacts an amazing “robot head”—immediately classified, under NASA’scharter, because of its enormous nationalsecurity implications? An unedited re-cording of the press conference will beavailable soon (for details go to Hoag-land’s web site: http://www.enterprise-mission.com). At the press conference itwas revealed that Johnston, had beenfired from NASA for, it was said, his coop-eration with the Dark Mission book pro-ject. Johnston, it was asserted, had se-cretly preserved missing Apollo moonphotos which he had been told at the

time to destroy. The photos which weredisplayed at the press conference appearto show previously undisclosed artificialstructures on the moon and otheranomalies.

NASA, We hardly knew yeAccording to Hoagland, to appreciate

his message it is necessary to understanda concept which he says informs all ofNASA’s policies: “The lie is different atevery level.” Hoagland tells us he heardthis from an individual he independentlyconfirmed as being an intelligence officerand he has made the statement a kind ofanalytical springboard for determiningwhat’s really going on at NASA. Bluntlycharacterizing what the authors call “cov-erup city from top to bottom, the bookbreaks open the lie at every level.” Hoag-land seems quite serious!

If he is right, those steeped since child-hood in the warm, fuzzy, safe view of apublic NASA could be in for quite ashock. The real agency, he proclaims, isdecidedly not that way. Rather, at its core,it has been carrying out a whole series ofhidden agendas—and all at taxpayerexpense.

The PlayersWhile Hoagland is careful to point out

that most NASA employees are both inno-cent and clueless as to what’s being doneby their agency to subvert its mission, heidentifies three main, albeit shadowy,groups as running NASA for their private,and often bitterly contested, benefit.They are, he tells us: the “Magicians,” the“Freemasons,” and the “Nazis.” Strangeas it may sound, Hoagland is in earnest.He has no problem calling the lot a“priesthood” adamantly determined to re-serve whatever they choose for them-selves, deeming only themselves worthyand initiated via bloodlines tracing, insome cases, clear back to Atlantis.

Consider rocket scientist Jack Parsons,co-founder of the Jet Propulsion Labora-tory in Pasadena. Hoagland declares em-phatically that Parsons was handpickedby the notorious black magician AleisterCrowley to head the Pasadena lodge of theOTO (Ordo Templi Orientis—Order of theEastern Temple) and ultimately ran theentire U.S. branch of the OTO. Moreover,he says that JPL was founded on Hallo-ween, 1936, the time when, in occult tra-dition, the veil between this world andthe next is thinnest, letting spirits roamfor a time. And the man whose rockettechnology to this day flies as the SRBs(Solid Rocket Boosters) on the SpaceShuttle, it is alleged, was involved in oc-cult doings so “out there” that Crowleyhimself was seriously disturbed by them.Parsons, says Hoagland, performed theBabylon Working with the goal ofcreating the very Whore of Babylon, as inthe Book of Revelations. Object? Bringforth the End Times!

Consider Farouk El-Baz, the expatriate Continued on Page 71

son of an Egyptian who was expert in theancient Egyptian gods and their ritualworship by the priests. How did a manworking for NASA contractor Bellcom,Inc. as a field geologist wind up the mostpowerful single individual in the Amer-ican space program? as Hoagland puts it,“the guy who picked the landing sites,controlled the dissemination and analysisof all the photography, and directlyoversaw and managed the astronauts’ ge-ological training, preparing them forwhat they would actually observe on thelunar surface”? And how did missionafter mission in which he was deeply in-volved just “happen” to align in such away that one or another of these gods/

goddesses was worshipped/honored/communicated with via exquisitelycareful placement of landings with thestars overhead in particular parts of theheavens associated with the clearly de-fined Egyptian deities Isis, Osiris, Horusand Set?

The mass in these Apollo images from the moon is not caused by a lens flare, saysHoagland. The astronaut's shadow in the first three images shows that the sun iscoming in at a right angle to the camera axis—thus eliminating the potential for such amundane explanation.

ANCIENT MYSTERIES

ome Atlantologists are re-luctant to even mentionthe name of EdgarCayce—America’s fore-

most seer of the 20th century—for fear of ridicule by conven-tional scholars. They fail to ap-preciate, however, the serious-ness with which a growingnumber of mainstream institu-tions rely on extra-sensory per-ception. For example, no less anorganization than the FederalBureau of Investigation todayprovides police departments witha list of favorite psychics whohave aided government agents inunraveling otherwise insolublecrimes. If such talented helperscontinue to prove themselvesworthy of respect by our nation’stop law enforcement personnel,we do ourselves a real disservice by ignoringtheir insights into mankind’s leading archae-ological enigma.

Everything the Sleeping Prophet had tosay about that lost civilization is containedin his “life readings” made over a fifty-yearperiod. Outstanding among them are hisportrayals of the actual men and women hecited—persons who once walked the streetsof the doomed city and directed its destiny.In selecting from his list of Atlantean resi-dents, those included below have beenchosen for their ability to illustrate the lostempire and underscore its credibility. Eachname and description is followed by its placein “Atlantis, The Edgar Cayce Readings,”volume 22, Virginia Beach, Virginia’s Associ-ation for Research and Enlightenment, Inc.,1987. In coming to know these Atlanteans,Cayce removes the subject from the generali-ties with which it is usually discussed toachieve a level of credible personalizationfound nowhere else. In telling us somethingabout the people of Atlantis, he put a humanface on their story.

in the Caribbean, he lived at a time of in-tense foreign migrations and worked as anesoteric chemist (alchemist), who was notabove abusing his powers at the expense ofhis clients. His name is very similar to aterm used for a great, ancestral island de-scribed in a Babylonian account of the WorldFlood. In Babylonian tradition (circa 2100B.C.), Arallu was a great, mountainous islandin the Distant West, a kind of paradise,where fresh-water springs and a year-roundtemperate climate were enjoyed by the spiri-tually enlightened inhabitants. Arallu wasthe Babylonian version of Atlantis.

Aalu is ancient Egyptian for “The Isle ofFlame,” descriptive of a large, volcanic islandin the sea of the Distant West (the AtlanticOcean), which physically matches Plato’s At-lantis virtually detail for detail: moun-tainous, with canals, luxuriant crops, a pala-tial city surrounded by great walls decoratedwith precious metals, etc. Aalu’s earliestknown reference appears in “The Destruc-tion of Mankind,” a New Kingdom history(1299 B.C.) discovered in the tomb of Pha-raoh Seti-I, at Abydos, site of the Osireion, asubterranean monument to the Great Floodthat destroyed a former age of greatness, and

is described in the account. Onthe other side of the world fromEgypt, the Apache Indians of theAmerican southwest claim theirancestors arrived after the GreatFlood destroyed their homeland,still remembered as “the Isle ofFlame,” in the ocean of the east.

The Hurrians were a peoplewho occupied Anatolia (Turkeyin ancient times) from the early3rd Millennium B.C. Many oftheir religious and mythic con-cepts were absorbed by their Hit-tite conquerors, beginning after2000 B.C. Among these traditionswas the story of Alalu, the firstking of heaven, a giant god, whomade his home on a moun-tainous island in the sea of thesetting sun. His son, Kumarbi,was synonymous for the GreekKronos, a mythic personificationof the Atlantic Ocean throughRoman times. (274-1 M.34 2/13/33)

Asphar—He was among thetechnicians who preserved thescientific knowledge of metal-lurgy from the destruction of At-lantis by resettling in the NileValley. Asphar used electro-plating when working with pre-cious metals and assisted in the

electrical combination of copper, zinc and tinfor the production of bronze, so important inthe ancient world. He also serviced a scalpelwhich generated coagulating energies forbloodless surgery in medical operations.

The electro-plating techniques employedby Asphar found possible validation in the so-called “Baghdad Battery,” recovered from anIraqi archaeological dig and subsequentlydated to Persia in the 2nd Century B.C. Usingcitrus juice as an acid, it generated enoughpower to electro-plate a statuette. Thirtyyears after Cayce described the Atlanteans’“electrical knife,” just such a surgical toolwas invented (re-invented?) by medical re-searchers in the U.S. (470-33 M.51 6/24/41)

Boob—As the early Atlanteans began tobroaden their civilization to other lands, ac-cording to Cayce, they were confronted bymasses of powerful and dangerous animalsthat threatened their expansion. Interest-ingly, the Aztecs had a similar tradition,known as Ocelatihu, wherein human beingstook up counsel for a kind of war with thesebeasts for world domination. Cayce describesBoob as one of the counsel members, second
