AU that is a beautiful piece of Opal that you are holding. I once had an Opal mine, but it had no red, only Green and blue. still beautiful. Unfortunately it was in an extremely hard matrix

Thanks, Real. I've worked as a gem cutter, the one in my avatar is Australian opal. Don't remember cutting much Mexican opal.
But have cut opal from many other places, including some odd locations like Macedonia.
I still cut on occasion, but these days more of a hobby.

Here's some numbers from the European ice sheet I found the other day:

Excellent post Oro and Eu. This city of No. I wonder if we can find any other refferences to it. Perhaps even some of the books that never made the bible. Like enoch. The flood was his time period. We may be able yo find a better description of the city

On that city of No, most bible scholars try to identify it as No-Ammon, better known as Thebes in Egypt. However this would never fit the description of being in the midst of rivers and having the SEA as a 'protecting wall', for Thebes was far inland and the only river near by is the Nile.

There is an interesting theory concerning Atlantis in Percy Fawcett's "Exploration Fawcett". While it must separate itself from Plato's version, it does make some sense. For anyone interested, the book can be found here: https://www.abebooks.com/servlet/Se...ration+Fawcett:+Journey+to+the+Lost+City+of+Z

Good luck,

City of Z is now a "motion picture"/movie, WHATEVER! Wife & I saw it last week; gonna get the DVD.

 

[Real of Tayopa]

Well Atlantis is too important to just let it lie, post, or I will.

 

[JohnWhite]

Atlantis is where one finds it

Rebel, I watched City of Z this weekend and loved it. Heck, I'm a sucker for any period film that shows off the resolute British stiff upper lip <snaps to attention/salutes>. Reminded me of Tropical Tramp's adventures (minus the cannibal tribes!)
BTW, another film I saw is Dunkirk, which is phenomenal and must be seen on the big screen to appreciate.

 

[Eu_citzen]

Well I've still not gotten back to sediment studies. Still busy with other stuff.

 

[Real of Tayopa]

Ryano, I thank you, it is rare when one remembers the writings of a member for a few weeks.

And you find this believable? I am surprised at you El Tropical Tramp, especially with the many issues of identifying Santorini with Atlantis, not the least being the difference in age, or the lack of any volcanic eruption involved, while Santorini was destroyed by that very type of event.

Please do continue, hope all had a great Thanksgiving feast,

ORO, you missed my sarcasm on Maguiver. First of all. Atlantis was in the Atlantice, one of the three plates that was subducted.

ACH du lieber! Backpedalling already! Sheesh and here I was all set to give you a real hard time of it. And amen to that, Atlantis had to be located in the sea that was named for it, the Atlantis sea (see Herodotus in the original Greek, our translators swapped out the S for a C making it Atlantic).

Morning GAP. . Nah, calculating the preposed orbit of Planet X, it's drag, it caused a shift in the Earth's polar axis, Ice forming over America and European cont., this continueing until it caused another shift in one of it's later passes. 'it allowed atlanti to emerge and flourish until another close pass caused an upset of the platal areas causing Atlantis to subduct under the asian and North American plates, . Atlantis was on the Africam plate.
