many other obvious environmental prerequisites for the development of
an advanced and prosperous economy: good agricultural lands, mineral
resources, forests, and so on.
So where could such a landmass have been located, if not under any of
the world’s oceans?
Library angels
Where could it have been located and when might it have disappeared?
And if it had disappeared (and no other explanation would do) then how,
why, and under what circumstances?
Seriously, how do you lose a continent?
Commonsense suggested that the answer had to lie in a cataclysm of
some kind, a planetary disaster capable of wiping out almost all physical
traces of a large civilization. But if so, why were there no records of such
a cataclysm? Or perhaps there were.
As my research progressed I studied many of the great myths of flood,
fire, earthquakes and ice handed down from generation to generation
around the world. We saw in Part IV that it was difficult to resist the
conclusion that the myths were describing real geological and climatic
events, quite possibly the different local effects of the same events in all
cases.
During the short history of mankind’s presence on this planet, I found
that there was only one known and documented catastrophe that fitted
the bill: the dramatic and deadly meltdown of the last Ice Age between
15000 and 8000 BC. Moreover, as was more obviously the case with
architectural relics like Teotihuacan and the Egyptian pyramids, many of
the relevant myths appeared to have been designed to serve as vehicles
for encrypted scientific information, again an indication of what I was
coming to think of as ‘the fingerprints of the gods’.
What I had become sensitized to, although I did not properly realize its
implications at the time, was the possibility that a strong connection
might exist between the collapsing chaos of the Ice Age and the
disappearance of an archaic civilization which had been the stuff of
legend for millennia.
It was at this moment exactly that the library angels intervened ...
The missing piece of the puzzle
The novelist Arthur Koestler, who had a great interest in synchronicity,
coined the term ‘library angel’ to describe the unknown agency
responsible for the lucky breaks researchers sometimes get which lead to
exactly the right information being placed in their hands at exactly the
