poliphilo These three images relate to the destruction of Atlantis
Where was Atlantis?
In the Atlantic, of course.
When the landmass was overwhelmed refugees took ship and scatttered to the four quarters.
What was the culture like?
Conventionally the city of Atlantis is represented as having architecture similar to that of ancient Greece, but it is more likely- looking at the civilisations that it may have seeded in central and south America, Egypt and Crete- have been megalithic and blocky. Anyway, for the purposes of these images, I've gone with an Aztec/Mayan look. And why not? Did they have balloons? They were an advanced civilisation; it would have been odd if they hadn't found ways of taking to the air.
OK. I'll come clean: I'm leaning on the accounts of people who claim to have memories of Atlantean times......
