If I have placed the nations of Atlantis correctly, seven nations covered the continents of the Americas. Three controlled island groups in the Eastern Atlantic. I study all sources of possible information including religious writings. Here are just a few sentences I found in the Bible that seem to refer to an empire composed of ten nations. The empire seems to be segregated into seven major countries and three minor countries; all controlled by a vast central city similar to Rome’s control over the nations that comprised the Roman Empire. 3 Then another sign appeared in heaven: an enormous red dragon with seven heads and ten horns and seven crowns on its heads. Revelation 12:3
19 “Then I wanted to know the meaning of the fourth beast, which was different from all the others and most terrifying, with its iron teeth and bronze claws—the beast that crushed and devoured its victims and trampled underfoot whatever was left. 20 I also wanted to know about the ten horns on its head and about the other horn that came up, before which three of them fell Daniel 7:19
‘The fourth beast is a fourth kingdom that will appear on earth. It will be different from all the other kingdoms and will devour the whole earth, trampling it down and crushing it. 24 The ten horns are ten kings who will come from this kingdom. After them another king will arise, different from the earlier ones; he will subdue three kings. Daniel 7:23,24
I saw a woman sitting on a scarlet beast that was covered with blasphemous names and had seven heads and ten horns. 4 The woman was dressed in purple and scarlet, and was glittering with gold, precious stones and pearls. She held a golden cup in her hand, filled with abominable things and the filth of her adulteries. 5 The name written on her forehead was a mystery: BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF PROSTITUTES, AND OF THE ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH. Revelation 17:3,4 “Why are you astonished? I will explain to you the mystery of the woman and of the beast she rides, which has the seven heads and ten horns. 8 The beast, which you saw, once was, now is not, and yet will come up out of the Abyss and go to its destruction.
Revelation 17: 7,8
Then a mighty angel picked up a boulder the size of a large millstone and threw it into the sea, and said: “With such violence the great city of Babylon will be thrown down, never to be found again. “…once was, now is not, and yet will come…”
The ten nations of Atlantis seem to have existed before the writing of Revelation. They did not exist at the time of the writing of Revelation. Could this empire exist again in the future?
If the answer is yes, then we may be sitting on real estate that forms part of that returning empire.
Ten kings ruled by a massive city called Babylon that is visible from the sea. The Babylonian empire had a creation story that says their empire was spawn by survivors who crawled out of the sea after a great disaster. Could Babylon be New Babylon, named in memory of an earlier Babylon?
Babylon, Poseidon, Avalon, Valhalla….Are these different names of the same immense city that ruled what may have been the mightiest empire on earth?
This is what my seven book series will present (as fiction), The birth, burial, and unfortunate return of Atlantis.
