When the Sky Fell: In Search of Atlantis

Rand and Rose Flem-Ath present evidence that not only did an advanced civilization once exist on the continent now known as Antarctica, but that it was probably destroyed in a global catastrophe around 9600 B.C. that shifted the continent of Atlantis to its present position in the arctic waters. The authors use Charles Hapgood's theory of earth crust displacement to explain these enigmas: at various stages in prehistory the earth's crust shifted dramatically, causing earthquakes, tidal waves, devastating climatic changes - destruction that could obliterate a sophisticated civilization. By studying the ancient maps, Plato's clues as to the location of Atlantis, and similarities between myths from around the world, the Flem-Aths conclude that a civilization of intelligent seafarers did exist some 12,000 years ago but was destroyed by a geological disaster, leaving only a few survivors to safeguard its legends for posterity. The combined evidence points convincingly at Antarctica, where, under a blanket of impenetrable ice, lies the lost city of Atlantis.

St. Martin's Paperbacks

A spellbinding blend of history and science, scholarship and speculation, this landmark work presents startling new evidence that traces archaeology's most enduring mysteries back to the lost civilization of Atlantis.... The Great Pyramid. Stonehenge. Machu Picchu. For centuries, these and other sacred sites have inspired wonder among those who ponder their origins. Conventional science tells us they were constructed by local peoples working with the primitive tools of a fledgling civilization. But these megaliths nonetheless continue to attract pilgrims, scholars, and adventurers drawn by the possibility that their true spiritual and technological secrets remain hidden. Who could have built these elaborate monuments? How did they do it? And what were their incomprehensible efforts and sacrifices designed to accomplish? Now comes a revolutionary theory that connects these mysteries to reveal a hidden global pattern -- the ancient work of an advanced civilization whose warnings of planetary cataclysm now reverberate across one hundred millennia. International bestselling author Colin Wilson and Canadian researcher Rand Flem-Ath join forces to share startling evidence of a fiercely intelligent society dating back as much as 100,000 years -- one that sailed the oceans of the world, building monuments to preserve and communicate its remarkable wisdom. The Atlantis Blueprint is their term for a sophisticated network of connections between these sacred sites that they trace to Atlantis: a sophisticated maritime society that charted the globe from its home base in Antarctica ... until it was obliterated by the devastating global changes it anticipated but could not escape. Here is adventure to realms beyond our imaginings ... to shifting poles, changing latitudes ... into the world of ancient mariners who recharted the globe ... to astonishing discoveries about our ancestors. Here are the great mysteries ... the incredibly complex geography of the Temple of Luxor ... the startling sophistication of Egyptian science and math ... and tantalizing similarities among the Hebrew, Greek, and Mayan alphabets to the Chinese lunar zodiac. The Atlantis Blueprint opens up a Pandora's box of ancient mysteries, lost worlds, and millennial riddles. It is a story as controversial, fascinating, dangerous -- and inspiring -- as any ever told.

There is a subterranean story within the Bible that has been repressed for centuries. It is a tale of greed, betrayal and revenge. It is the story of the hijacking of the Exodus by a perfect impostor. Why is so little known about the death of Moses – the greatest prophet of the Old Testament? There are no witnesses – no body – no funeral – and “…no one knows to this day where his burial place is.” The clues to this ancient enigma lie in the disturbing circumstances surrounding his disappearance. The truth about this powerful man remains elusive, as his life has always been shrouded in mystery. The isolated details of the biblical story and the contradictory accounts of his behavior have mystified and frustrated scholars and devotees alike. For the last years of his life he chose to hide behind a mask. At times he is depicted as a meek, stuttering figure; pleading with God that he’s unfit for a sacred mission. At other times his tyrannical commands terrorize the children of Israel. What is the explanation for these extreme shifts in the prophet’s character? Was Moses mentally ill? The evidence suggests something much more sinister: he was assassinated and replaced by an impostor. The idea that the prophet had been murdered obsessed Sigmund Freud for forty years. But despite devoting his last book to the subject he could not identify the man who had stolen the prophet’s identity. KILLING MOSES exposes a prime suspect, the Magician Reuel; a charismatic character whose influence molded the development of both Judaism and Christianity. Far from being a minor biblical character - Reuel was Moses father-in-law. He was deeply embedded in the lives of the tribal leaders; a perfect position from which to pursue his brutal agenda of vengeance. Trained in the elite art of magic at Egypt’s prestigious House of Life he had learned how his sophisticated skills could serve him well in manipulating and dominating the political game. The story of Osiris (a critical tale in the education of any Egyptian magician) in which a righteous son slays his uncle in retaliation for the murder of his father provided Reuel with a blueprint for murder. His motive for murdering Moses was as old as humankind. A born actor, his commanding voice and sense of drama eventually paved the way for him to seize control over a naive and often terrified populace. To this end he concealed his face behind a mesmerizing mask. But it was his unique talent for impersonation that hid his crimes for more than 3000 years. Using time-honoured detection methods to crack this ultimate cold case file KILLING MOSES uncovers the motive, the means and the opportunity of the prime suspect in this enduring, unsolved homicide.

History can reveal in unforgiving detail the glories and the warts of its actors. It can also conceal - through assassination, looted archives, letters set aflame - the truth. The lens through which we view the past is never frozen in position. Original research can melt false assumptions, releasing new streams of investigation. Fresh insights can remove our blinkers about the past and widen the perspective with which we approach the future. Inevitably, more puzzles emerge from the process. Curiosity is sparked. An endless truth-tease that rocks and rolls between frustration and the thrill of new discovery. This is how we feel about “Ancient Highways” an article unique to this publication. Our adventure tracking the history of the Ancients began in 1976. It was then that we discovered a US Naval map of the world that placed Antarctica at its epicenter. When we compared this 20th century map to Plato’s description of Atlantis we were fascinated to discover that his 5th century BC account of the geography of the lost continent fit the modern map of Antarctica like a glove. And so, we were hooked on one of the most fascinating of all mysteries. It was the pioneering work of Charles H. Hapgood (1904-1982) that provided the insights that initially fueled the engine of our quest. His work represents a powerful paradigm shift. Primarily through his theory of earth crust displacement. The idea that the earth’s outer shell or crust periodically displaces provides the mechanism that explains how Atlantis was transformed into Antarctica. The theory of earth crust displacement earned the enthusiastic support of Albert Einstein. Twenty-two years later Hapgood encouraged Rand to dig deeper into his own original research. They were both rewarded by Rand’s discovery that the theory of earth crust displacement could resolve numerous long-standing unsolved problems in various disciplines of science. One of the most significant was an explanation for the sudden, global rise of agriculture at the end of the last ice age (circa 9,600 BC when Atlantis perished). In 1981 Rand published in the scientific literature using the theory of earth crust displacement to provide ‘A Global Model for the Origins of Agriculture.’ The second door of critical research that Hapgood opened was the detailed study, in his 1966 book, MAPS OF THE ANCIENT SEA KINGS, of ancient maps. These ice-free maps of Antarctica depicting subglacial features lent strength to our conviction that Antarctica has a far older history than is appreciated. Our original research into ancient maps includes our discovery that the 1665 Kircher map of Atlantis is a remarkably accurate depiction of a modern ice-free Antarctic. Most of our research and non-fiction writing has revolved around our key obsessions of Atlantis, earth crust displacement and the location of sacred sites around the globe in a pattern that we came to call THE ATLANTIS BLUEPRINT. But during the last decade we’ve been drawn to the rich history and colorful characters who inhabit the early chapters of the BIBLE and their intricate connection with Jewish folklore. Just as mythology and legends provide the key to the enigma of a lost civilization we believe that folklore unlocks the secrets to another compelling ancient mystery: the enigmatic life of the prophet Moses. Sigmund Freud (1856-1939) believed that Moses was killed and replaced by an imposter. Like Freud, the authors believe that two people took the name Moses. Woven through Jewish folklore are the clues to the identity of the ‘second’ Moses. He was an Egyptian-trained magician; a talented impersonator who pulled off one of the most successful coups in history. Who was he? What drove him to commit his crimes? And how did he get away with it? KILLING MOSES brings to life the real, complex man behind the famous story of Moses and introduces his secret assassin – the magician, Reuel.

From Atlantis to the Promised Land: Papers from the Flem-Ath Files 1976-2017

Independently published

Scientific and mythological evidence that Antarctica was once Atlantis • Reveals how the earth’s crust shifted in 9600 BCE, dragging Atlantis into the polar zone beneath miles of Antarctic ice • Examines ancient yet highly accurate maps, including the Piri Reis map of 1513, which reveals a pre-glacial Antarctica • Shows how myths of floods and disaster from around the world all point to a common source In this completely revised and expanded edition of When the Sky Fell, Rand and Rose Flem-Ath show that 12,000 years ago vast areas of Antarctica were free from ice and home to the kingdom of Atlantis, a proposition that also elegantly solves the mysteries of ice ages and mass extinctions, the simultaneous worldwide rise of agriculture, and the source of devastating prehistoric climate change. Expanding upon Charles Hapgood’s theory of earth crust displacement, which was championed by Albert Einstein, they examine ancient yet highly accurate world maps, including the Piri Reis map of 1513, and show how the earth’s crust shifted in 9600 BCE, dragging Atlantis into the polar zone where it now lies beneath miles of Antarctic ice. From the Cherokee, Haida, and Okanagan of North America to the earliest records of Egypt, Iran, Mexico, and Japan, they reveal that ancient myths of floods, lost island paradises, and visits from advanced godlike peoples from all corners of the globe all point to the same worldwide catastrophe that resulted in Atlantis’s demise. The authors explain how the remaining Atlanteans, amid massive earthquakes and epic floods, evacuated and spread throughout the world, resulting in the birth of the first known civilizations. Including rare material from the archives of Charles Hapgood, Albert Einstein, and Dwight D. Eisenhower, the Flem-Aths explain how an earth crust displacement could happen again in the future, perhaps in correspondence with high solar activity. With new scientific, genetic, and linguistic evidence in support of Antarctica as the location of long-lost Atlantis, this updated edition convincingly shows that Atlantis was not swallowed by the sea but was entombed beneath miles of polar ice.

An investigation of how Moses was deceived and murdered by his father-in-law, Reuel • Shows how the magician Reuel staged the Burning Bush that spoke to Moses and assumed Moses’ identity after his murder • Explains how early scribes edited the Exodus story to cover Moses’ assassination and replacement and fabricated Moses’ origin story • Builds upon the Moses research of Goethe, Christopher Marlowe, and Sigmund Freud--who spent the last 40 years of his life obsessed with solving Moses’ murder The life of Moses, the greatest prophet of the Old Testament, has always been shrouded in mystery. The Bible mentions no witnesses to Moses’ death, no funeral, and no indication of his burial place, and the story of Exodus paints a very contradictory picture of this man so important to both Judaism and Christianity. At times, he is depicted as a meek, stuttering figure and at others his tyrannical commands and fits of rage terrorize the children of Israel. And, for the last years of his life, he chose to hide behind a veil. What is the explanation for these extreme shifts in character? Was Moses mentally ill? As Rand and Rose Flem-Ath reveal, the evidence points to something much more sinister: Moses was murdered and replaced by an impostor. The result of a decade-long investigation, this book continues and builds upon the research of Goethe, Christopher Marlowe, and Sigmund Freud--who spent the last 40 years of his life obsessed with solving Moses’ murder--and reaches a startling but well-evidenced conclusion that Moses was deceived and murdered by his father-in-law, Reuel. The authors show how Reuel was a skilled magician trained at Egypt’s prestigious House of Life and they reveal his motive: He was the son of Esau, from whom Jacob stole his birthright, the leadership of the Hebrew people, a role that Moses was now assuming. The authors explain how the magician Reuel used his sophisticated skills of manipulation and illusion to fake the Burning Bush that spoke to Moses as well as conceal his assumption of Moses’ identity after the murder. They reveal how the early scribes of the Old Testament inserted lags of time into the Exodus story to cover Moses’ assassination and replacement, fabricated Moses’ origin story, and changed the location of the “Mountain of God” from Edom, where Reuel was a prince, to Sinai. Unveiling the enigma of Moses’ real story--and his murder and replacement--the Flem-Aths dramatically challenge the time line and details of biblical history, exposing a cover-up at the very origins of Western religion.
