Atlantis In The Amazon

In 1923 an Italian priest, Father Carlo Crespi, came to Ecuador as a missionary. Befriending the indigenous Shuar people, he learned of an ancient treasure they had sworn to protect hidden within a network of underground tunnels. As newly converted Christians, the Shuar wanted to share with their priest these amazing anachronistic artifacts - golden sarcophagi from Egypt, bronze plaques depicting famous scenes from antiquity bearing both Quechua and Phoenician writing, strange machines and many other inexplicable items. Crespi maintained the collection until just before his death when the Ecuadorian government purchased it from the church and many of these priceless treasures were lost forever. Providing detailed descriptions and his own photos of the advanced technologies and beautiful art that comprised the “Crespi Treasure,” Richard Wingate reveals that the ancient civilisation responsible for these artifacts was Atlantis. Connecting Crespi's treasures to Edgar Cayce's descriptions of advanced technology in the distant past, Wingate explores other evidence of Atlantis in South America and the Bahamas, including geographically out-of-place underwater ruins and buried magnetic ore. Investigating ancient records, such as the Mahabharata, he shows how a prehistoric nuclear war between the Atlanteans and the Aryans ultimately resulted in the sinking of Atlantis and he uncovers the radioactive archaeological evidence left behind. Explaining how our ancient ancestors regretted their nuclear actions and destroyed or buried their technology, entering into a self-imposed Stone Age, he shows how our civilisation is headed down the same path and that only through “green” choices can we avoid the same fate as Atlantis. · Includes photos and descriptions of the strange machines and beautiful artifacts that once comprised the "Crespi treasure" · Connects Crespi's treasures to readings by Edgar Cayce and Annie Besant's descriptions of Atlantean colonies in Ecuador · Reveals the nuclear war between the Atlanteans and the Aryans and the radioactive evidence left behind in the Bahamas and Pakistan
