Legend of Atlantis (Full Episode)
[quote]Exciting evidence emerges of civilizations lost for
centuries under the waves, from mysterious underwater pyramids
off the coast of Japan to the fabled city of Atlantis itself.
Using cutting-edge graphics to reveal what's actually lying on
the seafloor, and insight from the world's top marine

‘Mind blowing’ ancient settlements uncovered in the Amazon
[quote]The urban centres are the first to be discovered in the
region, challenging archaeological dogma.[/quote]

[quote]A shift in thinking
Humans have lived in the Amazon Basin — a vast river-drainage
system roughly the size of the continental United States — for
around 10,000 years . Researchers thought that before the
arrival of Europeans in the sixteenth century, all Amazonians
lived in small, nomadic tribes that had little impact on the
world around them. And although early European visitors
described a landscape filled with towns and villages, later
explorers were unable to find these sites.[/quote]
[quote]By the twentieth century, archaeologists had yet to
confirm the rumours, and argued that the Amazon’s nutrient-poor
soil was unable to support large-scale agriculture, and that it
would have prevented tropical civilizations — similar to those
found in central America and southeast Asia — from arising in
the Amazon. By the 2000s, however, archaeological opinion was
beginning to shift. Some researchers suggested that unusually
high concentrations of domesticated plants, along with patches
of unusually nutrient-rich soil that could have been created by
people, might indicate that ancient Amazonians had indeed shaped
their environment.
The hypothesis gained steam when, in 2018, archaeologists
reported3 hundreds of large, geometric mounds that had been
uncovered because of deforestation in the southern Amazon
rainforest. These structures hinted at ancient organized
societies capable of thriving in one location for years — but
direct evidence of settlements was lacking.[/quote]
[quote]Previous digs had revealed that these ‘forest islands’
contained traces of human habitation, including the remains of
the mysterious Casarabe culture, which appeared around ad 500.
During one excavation, Prümers and his colleagues realized that
they had found what looked like a wall, indicating that a
permanent settlement had once occupied the area. The researchers
also found graves, platforms and other indications of a complex
society. But dense vegetation made it difficult for them to use
conventional methods to survey the site.[/quote]

Lost beneath the leaves: Lasers reveal an ancient Amazonian
civilisation
[quote]Pyramids and canals built by an ancient civilisation have
been discovered beneath the forests of the Bolivian Amazon.
LiDAR technology allowed archaeologists to see through the
canopy to reveal hundreds of previously unknown structures and
settlements from the Casarabe culture of 500-1400 AD. In this
film archaeologist Heiko Prümers describes his work in a region
long thought to be unable to support complex ancient
societies.[/quote]

My father always talked about this legend:
www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Oj6TvFZIeE
This mythology is very useful in connecting Hindu Aryanists
living in the Atlantisphere (who have ethnic origins in the
Indosphere) to the land they live in (Atlantis), such as myself.
It is also an Indocentric form of Aryan diffusion, in that
promotes the view that the Atlantisphere was always a "Hindu"
(i.e. Aryan) land.

[Quote]
Bhagiratha (Sanskrit: भगीरथ, IAST:
Bhagīratha) is a legendary king of the Ikshvaku dynasty in
Hindu literature. He is best known for his legend of bringing
the sacred river Ganges, personified as the Hindu river goddess
Ganga, from heaven upon the earth, by performing a penance.[2]

Although one doesn't necessarily have to subscribe to this view
to be an Indian origin/Hindu Aryanist in the Atlantisphere. Then
again, one doesn't even necessarily have to believe in Aryan
diffusion to be an Aryanist either.

Also, the previous post reminded me of this quote from the main
site:
HTML https://web.archive.org/web/20161231062918/http://aryanism.net/culture/aryan-race/aryan-diffusion-roundup
[Quote]
The common literary motif of sky and earth as a pair - man
existing between the two - derives from the steppe panorama of
Turanian blood memory. A rival literary motif, and the correct
pairing according to Aryan blood memory, is sky and ocean as a
pair, respectively the source and sink of the water cycle linked
by rivers and driven by sunlight. In the Turanian view, sky and
earth are complementary opposites (hence often portrayed as
different genders), whereas in the Aryan view, sky and ocean are
two forms containing the same content. Which blood memory do you
have?
[/Quote]
When I first read that, I was instantly reminded of Bhagiratha.
