I have been reading 'Atlantis' by Ignatius Donnely, written around 1880. It reads like a students essay, written in a mindstate of proving merrit to combat ridicule, complete with spelling, punctuation, and grammatical errors, a lack of index, registry or any other form of categorization, delivered just within the deadline after a full night of crunch time.
However, the content, or rather, the storys by other civilizations documented by actual historians qouted in the content, is quite interesting in regard to the story of Noah and the extremely similar storys by Indians, Hindu, Aztecs, Vikings, Greek, Germanic and other civilizations. The mythology of this deluge is fascinating! I can also recommend Cataclysm which, unlike this 600 page essay on Atlantis (which surprisingly, has only recently been surpassed by Graham Hancocks 'Fingerprints of the Gods') is written by actual qualified academics and explores this cat-astro-phe/dis-a-star and the deluge that (as they theorize, and as the ancients documented) came from it.
So far, no. But there appears to be a geologic record of a devastating cataclysm across the arctic around 12000 years ago.

I can't recommend this book enough. A lot of evidence of a massive catastrophe happening around 9500-10000 BC essentially throwing us back into the stone age. I always viewed the Ancient Alien theory as downplaying human ingenuity. It absolutely could have been technology we no longer understand. Even if it doesnt turn out correct its a great read and was fun to imagine what it could have been like.
I certainly agree with that, as I read books like Cataclysm and Fingerprints of the Gods and am convinced that the scriptures have been criminally misinterpreted. However, stimulating or helping people to hang on to the retarded previous notions is not productive at all.
