Reworked now with framing. The background picture is a Original picture By( Steve Pike) of redbubble thanks again steve. The story of Atlantis begins quite literally with two of Plato’s dialogues, Timaeus and Critias. These accounts are the only known written records which refer specifcally to a lost civilization called Atlantis. Many people believe the tale to be complete fiction, the creation of a philosopher’s imagination used to illustrate an argument. Others believe that the story was inspired by catastrophic events which may have destroyed the Minoan civilization on Crete and Thera. Still others maintain that the story is an accurate representation of a long lost and almost completely forgotten land.

Serapis Bey was incarnated as a high priest in one of the “Temples of the Sacred Fire” on Atlantis who migrated to Egypt at the time of the destruction. It is also believed that he was incarnated as the Egyptian Pharaoh Amenhotep III (who constructed the Temple of Luxor to the god Amon) and also as Leonidas, the King of Sparta who was killed in 480 BC defending the pass of Thermopylae against the invasion of Greece by Xerxes I, Emperor of the Persian Empire. A commissioned painting. 18th January 2008

Over the years, a variety of people, cultures, and species have been given credit for the building of Stonehenge. Some of the most legendary figures trying to take responsibility have included: / Giants: According to old myths, dancing giants were caught in a sunbeam and petrified to stone, causing the monument to be nicknamed the “Giant’s Ring”. The stones were also believed to have healing power. / Merlin and King Arthur: Some believe Merlin himself assembled Stonehenge to commemorate slain chieftains. It’s also rumored that the Sword in the Stone, which would eventually lead Arthur onto the throne and into legend, was made from Stonehenge Stones. / Aliens: Most of the world’s earliest and most elaborate crop circles are found within a forty-mile (64km) radius of Stonehenge. Scientists today are unable to replicate crop circles, suggesting that their construction and that of Stonehenge should perhaps be credited to a more intelligent species. / Atlanteans: According to Plato, the Kingdom of Atlantis controlled the islands of the Atlantic and built many stone structures to better predict future events based on astronomical calculations. Given the fate of Atlantis, which supposedly sank into the sea, it’s debatable how accurate their predictions could have been. / Druids: John Aubrey, a Stonehenge scholar, erroneously suggested this connection three centuries ago. The Druids are an earth-based faith that we now have formed much later than the building of Stonehenge. The Druids do celebrate the summer solstice, same as Stonehenge’s true builders, and they have recently made it a tradition to incorporate this ancient monument into current rituals. / The Beaker Folk from 2500 BC are believed to have done some of the work on Stonehenge. They were an aggressive culture that invaded the Salisbury Plain. From artifacts, we know that the Beakers were sophisticated, organized, understood mathmatics, worshipped the Sun, and celebrated the solstices. This makes them ideal builders for some of the site. / The other cultures that contributed to Stonehenge remain a mystery, though archaeologists are getting closer and closer to finding answers. This is a photograph of a full scale replica of Stonehenge that was erected as a WWI memorial by Sam Hill, in Maryhill, WA which overlooks the mighty Columbia River and Mount Hood. The photograph of the Full Moon was also taken by myself in October 2008, the two were merged and edited in photoshop7 with Redfield plug-in for the rippled water effect. Stonehenge

All the little household gods / Have started crying, but say / Good-bye now, and put to sea. / Farewell, my dear, farewell: may / Hermes, master of the roads, / And the four dwarf Kabiri, / Protect and serve you always; / And may the Ancient of Days / Provide for all you must do / His invisible guidance, / Lifting up, dear, upon you / The light of His countenance.

How on earth did it happen, I used to wonder / that a whole city—arches, pillars, colonnades, / not to mention vehicles and animals—had all / one fine day gone under? I mean, I said to myself, the world was small then. / Surely a great city must have been missed? / I miss our old city— white pepper, white pudding, you and I meeting / under fanlights and low skies to go home in it. Maybe / what really happened is this: the old fable-makers searched hard for a word / to convey that what is gone is gone forever and / never found it. And so, in the best traditions of where we come from, they gave their sorrow a name / and drowned it.

The East and the West took form as the wings of a lark. / One wing was feathered with facts of the uttermost Past, / And one with the dreams of a prophet; and both sailed fast / And met where the sorrowful Soul on the earth was cast. / Then a Voice said: `Thine, if thou lovest enough to use;’ / But another: `To fly and to sing is pain: refuse!’ / Then the Soul said: `Come, O my wings! I cannot but choose.’ / And the Soul was a-tremble like as a new-born thing, / Till the spark of the dawn wrought a conscience in heart as in wing, / Saying, `Thou art the lark of the dawn; it is time to sing.’........... Words by American poet Sidney Lanier….... Painted using acrylics, pigment, inks,graphite and wax on paper / 102×42cm Music – Born Free – John Barry

featured in Metallic Junktion 09-28-2009 / featured in Creative Cards 09-28-2009 MUSIC The continent of Atlantis was an island / which lay before the great flood / in the area we now call the Atlantic Ocean. / So great an area of land, that from her western shores / those beautiful sailors journeyed / to the South and the North Americas with ease, / in their ships with painted sails. To the East Africa was a neighbour, across a short strait of sea miles. / The great Egyptian age is but a remnant of The Atlantian culture. / The antediluvian kings colonised the world / All the Gods who play in the mythological dramas / In all legends from all lands were from fair Atlantis. / Knowing her fate, Atlantis sent out ships to all corners of the Earth. / On board were the Twelve: / The poet, the physician, the farmer, the scientist, / The magician and the other so-called Gods of our legends. / Though Gods they were - / And as the elders of our time choose to remain blind / Let us rejoice and let us sing and dance and ring in the new / Hail Atlantis! / Way down below the ocean where I wanna be she may be, / Way down below the ocean where I wanna be she may be, / Way down below the ocean where I wanna be she may be. / Way down below the ocean where I wanna be she may be, / Way down below the ocean where I wanna be she may be. / My antediluvian baby, oh yeah yeah, yeah yeah yeah, / I wanna see you some day / My antediluvian baby, oh yeah yeah, yeah yeah yeah, / My antediluvian baby, / My antediluvian baby, I love you, girl, / Girl, I wanna see you some day. / My antediluvian baby, oh yeah / I wanna see you some day, oh / My antediluvian baby. / My antediluvian baby, I wanna see you / My antediluvian baby, gotta tell me where she gone / I wanna see you some day / Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up, oh yeah / Oh glub glub, down down, yeah / / created with Incendia
