Among the most productive ecosystems on earth, wetlands are also
some of the most vulnerable. Australian Wetland Cultures argues for
the cultural value of wetlands. Through a focus on swamps and their
conservation, the volume makes a unique contribution to the growing
interdisciplinary field of the environmental humanities. The
authors investigate the crucial role of swamps in Australian
society through the idea of wetland cultures. The broad historical
and cultural range of the book spans pre-settlement indigenous
Australian cultures, nineteenth-century European colonization, and
contemporary Australian engagements with wetland habitats. The
contributors situate the Australian emphasis in international
cultural and ecological contexts. Case studies from Perth, Western
Australia, provide practical examples of the conservation of
wetlands as sites of interlinked natural and cultural heritage. The
volume will appeal to readers with interests in anthropology,
Australian studies, cultural studies, ecological science,
environmental studies, and heritage protection.
Under a man-made lake on an Aegean Isle, we see the back cover
photo of a sculptured message. This is Atlantis' treasury location.
Over 30 enclosed satellite photos of this location are no longer
available via satellite. In 2013, someone terminated the satellite
feed and desecrated the site by painting it with earth tone colors.
Greek historian Pliny and Hebrew prophets Ezekiel and Zechariah
describe Atlantis' surviving-treasury like 'Fort Knox on Steroids.'
Who is salvaging the Atlantis Treasury hoard? Poseidon named it the
Atlantic Island; Homer, Pausanias and the Greeks called it Chryse;
Ezekiel, Jeremiah and Zechariah called it Tyrus; Socrates told
Plato, who wrote the story, calling it ATLANTIS. Plato gives us the
location: ..".for this sea which is within the straits of Heracles
is only a harbor, having a narrow entrance...," and ..".the sea in
those parts is impassable and impenetrable, because there is a
shoal of mud in the way; and this was caused by the subsidence of
the island." The harbor was filled in by the subsidence of the
island. Find the harbor, and we have found Atlantis. Mystery solved
Now we understand the whole story. Under the subsidence of the
island is a second treasury, containing many of the gold statues
and artifacts that were on the surface of Atlantis, created by
earthquakes and tsunamis that hit it. History says this treasury
location is virgin territory for archaeologists. An immediate
investigation of this site needs to be conducted. Atlantis was only
a part of a larger network of civilizations controlling trade and
wealth in the Mediterranean from 1500 BC to 500 BC. Sea trade was
dominant and Atlantis was right in the middle of it. Evidence
reveals that the 'Sea People' invasions and conquest of
Mediterranean civilizations was carried out by this network. Dates
and a list of these invasions are in the book. The greed and lust
for wealth by this network eventually focused upon Jerusalem. In
924 BC, Egyptian Pharaoh Shishak, with partners, invaded Israel
taking all from Jerusalem's temple, including the Ark of the
Covenant. The evidence points its bony finger at Atlantis' treasury
location, on this Aegean Isle, as the resting place for the Ark.
The evidence reveals members of this network worked together to
conquer and seize assets, and that they constructed 4 underground
treasuries. The location of these undiscovered sites are
documented, along with available photos. Over 100 photographs are
in the book. Evidence also points to One of the Seven Sages of
Greece as the original visitor and author of Platos' story of
Atlantis. He was a Phoenician, an astronomer, a mathematician and
was an associate of Solon and the Egyptian priest that initiated
Platos' dialogues of Timaeus and Critias. He was trusted and
esteemed by the king of Atlantis, who showed him inside the 'off
limits' temple of Poseidon. The evidence for this book generates
from the first hand manuscripts of ancient Mediterranean historians
and geographers, as well as the ancient Hebrew prophets. By
carefully piecing together their information, we have assembled an
accurate picture of events occurring at that time in the
Mediterranean. The location and history of the Island of Atlantis
are documented, in this text, to a certainty beyond a reasonable
doubt. The evidence uncovered and assembled is crystal clear. The
clouded mystery of Atlantis has finally been solved by the texts of
the ancient writers, combined with modern day investigative
technology. The mystery is now the biography of Atlantis. Enjoy the
book.
