Echos of Atlantis & Gods of the Golden Age

from Megalithic Marvels · host Derek Olson

Conventional archaeology propagates the notion that the further we look back into history, the more archaic the civilizations were and the more inferior their methods of construction. Yet all over the world are megalithic marvels that whisper to us from a bygone age, that were engineered with an ancient lost technology, that confound today’s experts, that defy our greatest modern engineering and that tell us a different version of history.Every ancient civilization has legends concerning a golden age when the gods and mankind co-existed. According to these legends and ancient texts, the gods bred with human women and created hybrid race… The Bible hints at this in several places, the book of Enoch expounds on it in even greater detail and Greek mythology romanticizes and embellishes it…In Plato’s work "Critias," he recounts a conversation between Solon of Athens and an old Egyptian priest. The priest explains to Solon that advanced civilizations once ruled on earth before they were wiped out by a great flood. Plato then relates the tale of Atlantis that mentions how the gods distributed the whole earth into portions and made themselves temples and and instituted sacrifices, and that Poeidon was given the island of Atlantis.In this video I break down Plato's account of legendary Atlantis and read the highlights of the Critias dialogue.
