ATLANTIS II The Lost Volcano: From the Mediterranean to the Ring of Fire

What if Plato’s island was not in the Atlantic at all—but deep in the volcanic heart of Indonesia?

Atlantis II — The Lost Volcano continues the research journey begun in Atlantis: Searching for a Lost Civilization, merging geology, archaeology, and myth into a new scientific hypothesis. From the Mediterranean and Egypt to the Banda Sea, the book retraces the forgotten equatorial axis of civilization—where fire and water shaped humanity’s first empire.

Drawing on modern satellite bathymetry, genetic drift studies, and volcanic-resonance models, book chapters reveal how a cataclysm around 9600 BCE may have destroyed an advanced ring-shaped island in the Banda Arc—the true “island of fire” remembered by priests, poets, and prophets. Evidence of ancient metallurgy, concentric architecture, and elephant faunas near Sumatra and Borneo align with Plato’s precise details, while megalithic temples on Seram and Timor echo Atlantean design.

From the Circular Blueprint to The Fire Mountain That Blew Itself Apart, from Genetic Drift and the Wanderers of the Sea to From Fire to Stars, this interdisciplinary study transforms myth into testable science. A synthesis for readers of Graham Hancock and scientific explorers of lost civilizations.
