It appears that it tells the story of the cataclysm which ended the Laurentian Ice Age, started the old stone age, ended the Australian ice cap, and initiated the abrupt climatic change over the whole world as discovered in oceanography. Of course it was the cataclysm through which Adam and Eve survived, ending a civilization in the eastern hemisphere. Traces – wisps – of that civilization are found in the legends recorded by the Hindu historian Valmiki, and told by the Polynesian tribes such as the Maori.
The story apparently was handed down verbally, generation by generation, through the 5,000-year period of no written history; and, after Noah’s – or Utnapishtim’s – flood, when history started to be written, it became the basis for the Greek alphabet.
Factual, legendary, or mythological – or maybe even historical or semi-historical, whichever it may be, the story is fascinating, isn’t it? If you wish to pursue it further, read Don Antonio Batres Jaurequi’s History of Central America and James Churchward’s The Lost Continent of Mu. Churchward makes many mistakes, but his works are interesting reading. His unexacting treatment of the Calendar Gate of Tiahuanaco makes one question his sometimes cursory methods.
History before the cataclysm of 11,500 years ago comes to us in the form of legends; we can understand

those legends and their origins far better in light of the history of cataclysms. The Greek alphabet has existed in two forms through all of Greek history. Where did it come from before that? It appears that it is a direct descendant of prehistoric Mayan or Naga. Perhaps the answer lies in the megaliths, runes, and glyphs ranging from the Matto Grosso to Deutschland, Finland, England, and Friesland. All we can say at this time is that these are prehistoric secrets of the Hellenes!
Now we must leave the pleasures of enjoying our hypotheses and return to more serious considerations. Let’s discuss the most elusive piece of the puzzle, the part which has taken twenty years to derive and fit into the puzzle: the trigger, the cause of cataclysms.
My thoughts go back to Georges Cuvier’s challenge to the world of science which he wrote in 1812 ” discover the cause of these events.” Dr. Hibben’s contemporary adjunct to that challenge is really an inseparable part of it: “Any good solution to a consuming mystery must answer all of the facts.”
As the years went by and we remained dissatisfied with our concepts concerning the trigger, we concentrated on that part of the puzzle. It has taken twenty years to find a satisfactory solution – one which answers all of the facts.
