The Lost Civilization of Lemuria (7128)

Using recent deep-sea archeological finds, enigmatic glyphs and symbols and ancient records that document the story of this sunken world, the author re-creates a picture of this civilisation in which people lived in rare harmony and possessed a sophisticated technology that allowed them to harness the weather, defy gravity and conduct genetic investigations far beyond what is possible today. When disaster struck Lemuria, the survivors made their way to other parts of the world, incorporating their scientific and mystical skills into the existing cultures of Asia, Polynesia and the Americas. Totem poles of the Pacific Northwest, architecture in Thailand, the colossal stone statues on Easter Island and even the perennial philosophies all reveal their kinship to this now-vanished civilisation.
