Atlantis: The Truth: the lost wisdom of our forgotten ancestors

by Ian Lawton

Overview

It is time for a fundamental reappraisal of the ancient texts and traditions from around the world. They retain traces of the lost wisdom of a forgotten race.
These 'Atlanteans' possessed a perfect understanding of their spiritual roots, but became obsessed with the material world and progressively lost their awareness.
The price they paid was almost total annihilation. So are there lessons for us as once again the earth is opened up to huge energetic changes?

In this heavily updated version of Genesis Unveiled, the author tackles many fascinating questions. Was our planet once populated by a lost 'Atlantean' civilisation that was destroyed? A fundamental reappraisal of the most revered ancient texts and traditions from around the globe, coupled with archaeological and geological evidence, suggests that it was. But what were our pre-catastrophe ancestors like? Rather than huddling in caves to escape the Ice Age, were they expert navigators and astronomers who travelled far and wide? Did they have access to incredible technology, or were they defined far more by their spirituality?

Where did our forgotten ancestors live? What caused them to be wiped from the face of the earth, and when did this happen? Was it just a random natural catastrophe, or was it somehow related to their increasing preoccupation with the material at the expense of the spiritual, as the texts suggest?

Venturing even further back in time, what caused the sudden surge in culture around 75,000 years ago when the modern human race emerged? What ongoing impetus allowed it to snowball so rapidly, compared to the slow but steady evolution of our hominid forebears over millions of years? Were 'divine sages' really sent to introduce civilisation to humankind, and if so how can we understand who or what they really were? Some sort of gods, or angels, or extraterrestrial visitors... or just ordinary human beings with an extraordinary mission?

The veiled pointers to our hidden past have finally been unmasked as more than just the psychological constructs of philosophically primitive cultures. But is history repeating itself... and if so what will happen this time around?

Editorial Reviews

A fabulous find! Ian Lawton has done something tremendous and unique, by tracing the shadow of a lost human civilization not only in ancient myth but in ancient records, and comparing the two! Brilliant research. Whitley Strieber, author of Communion and radio show host

A dramatic new vision of the origins of civilisation, born out of a profound understanding of ancient spirituality. Andrew Collins, leading revisionist author

This book is well-written, well referenced, and highly original - better, in fact, than most books by Hancock et al. Bild

Remarkable new insights into the pre-flood human race. Barbara Hand Clow, author of The Mayan Code

An extremely useful survey of early human culture that embraces the unorthodox as well as the mainstream in pursuit of man's origins. Highly illuminating. Adrian Gilbert, co-author of The Orion Mystery
