Lyonesse

1. In the Arthurian legends, a lady besieged by the Red Knight of the Red Lands; she obtained Sir Gareth from Arthur's court to rescue her.

2. Legendary lost land, supposedly a magical place west of Land's End in Cornwall, believed by some to be where the mortally wounded King Arthur was taken after his last battle (see Avalon). Some thought it identical with Liones, the kingdom of Tristan's father, but this may originally have been Lothian (Leoneis), later confused with a region of Brittany (Leonais).

Other legends tell that, when Arthur had fallen in his last battle, Mordred pursued the remnant of his army into Lyonesse. The ghost of Merlin appeared, the land sank and Mordred's forces were destroyed. Arthur's men, however, reached what are now the Isles of Scilly and survived.

Did such a land exist? Reference is made to it in Camden's Survey of Cornwall (1602). In Roman times the Scillies seem to have been a single island partially overrun by the sea. It is said that local fishermen have pulled up stones from the buildings of Lyonesse in their nets, and that to this day the bells of long submerged churches can be heard on still nights. In the 1930s Stanley Baron, a journalist working for the London News Chronicle, claimed to have heard bells when staying at Sennen Cove, immediately to the north of Land's End. Edith Olivier, a sometime mayor of Wilton, near Salisbury, allegedly saw some of the domes and spires of Lyonesse in the sea, when standing on the cliffs at Land's End.

According to ancient celtic tradition, the narrow strip of the Atlantic Ocean that lies between the coast of Cornwall, England, and the Scilly Islands was once dry land, covered with prosperous towns and handsome churches. Then, sometime in the 5th century AD the ocean abruptly engulf Lyonesse, and only one man, named Trevilian, escaped to tell of its destruction. To this day, his descendants' family coat of arms bears a picture of the white horse on which the ancestral Trevilian reportedly rode to safety.

Ancient Evidence: Mysteries of Jesus
~ DVD ~


Ancient Evidence: Mysteries of Jesus -- DVD

Join the Ancient Evidence detectives as they investigate what may be the most famous murder in history. Begin with a look at the key figures surrounding Jesus of Nazareth's death - Herod Antipas and Pontius Pilate. King Herod had influential dissenter John the Baptist beheaded, but what roll did he play in the death of Jesus? Considered a modern-day icon for the virtues of forgiveness, Mary Magdalene is traditionally thought to have been a reformed prostitute in her time. Examine evidence that challenges this centuries-old depiction - she may not have been a prostitute at all.



Ancient Evidence: Mysteries of the Apostles
~ DVD ~


Ancient Evidence: Mysteries of the Apostles

Though Paul wasn't an original member of the 12 disciples - he was later admitted as a "special" apostle - he was nonetheless a major figure in the early Christian church. He was one of Jesus' closest companions, the unofficial spokesman for the 12 disciples and even a leader of the Christian community for a time. And yet this highly regarded man - who was eventually killed for his beliefs - started off as a lowly fisherman in Galilee. Follow the story of Peter and his rise from the humblest of beginnings to his standing as one of the most influential members of Jesus' ministry.



Forbidden Archeology: The Full Unabridged Edition
by Michael A. Cremo


Forbidden Archeology: The Full Unabridged Edition

Over the centuries, researchers have found bones and artifacts proving that humans like us have existed for millions of years. Mainstream science, however, has suppressed these facts. Prejudices based on current scientific theory act as a knowledge filter, giving us a picture of prehistory that is largely incorrect. Forbidden Archeology is a work of thoroughgoing scholarship and intellectual adventure.



Lost Cities of Ancient Lemuria and the Pacific
by David Hatcher Childress


Lost Cities of Ancient Lemuria and the Pacific

David Hatcher Childress's book looks at the Lemuria story, the lost continent of the Pacific or maybe Indian ocean, with great imagination and intellectual curiosity. For the first time since the 1930s he approached the subject in detail, and he is not afraid to take on many aspects of the story, however quirky, with an open mind. Moreover, I liked the physical descriptions of the places he visited, and the book can be read as an offbeat travelogue as well as alternative archaeology. Recommended reading for lost continent buffs!



Atlantis, the Antediluvian World
by Ignatius Donnelly


Atlantis, the Antediluvian World

The most important book of its time (1882) on the subject of Atlantis. The author claims there once existed in the Atlantic Ocean, opposite the mouth of the Mediterranean Sea, a large island, which was the remnant of an Atlantic continent, and known to the ancient world as Atlantis, that Atlantis was the region where man first rose from a state of barbarism to civilization, that the gods and goddesses of the ancient Greeks, the Phoenicians, the Hindus, and the Scandinavians were simply the kings, queens, and heroes of Atlantis, that the mythologies of Egypt and Peru represented the original religion of Atlantis, which was sun-worship, etc., etc. Illustrated with photographs.




Into the Bermuda Triangle: Pursuing the Truth Behind the World's Greatest Mystery

by Gian Quasar

Whether you’re fascinated by unexplained events or eager to learn the truth behind the stories you’ve heard, reading Into the Bermuda Triangle is like seeing the planets start to wobble in their orbits. Quasar wants you to understand that this earth--far from a conquered host--still conceals mysteries that will challenge our established world view no less than the theory of relativity challenged Newtonian mechanics. In this age of technological and scientific accomplishment, there are still things that transcend understanding. The Bermuda Triangle is one.

by Bob Suckling, Nigel Suckling

Secrets And Mysteries Of The World
by Sylvia Browne

Secrets And Mysteries Of The World

Everything from Atlantis to Bigfoot to the Bermuda Triangle is dusted off in this rambling rehash of pop mythology. Browne (Adventures of a Psychic) serves up perfunctory accounts of folktales, New Age origin myths and tabloid sensations, embellishing them with her desultory psychic vibes ("historians say that Stonehenge dates to about 3000 B.C., but I felt when I was there that it was more like 5000 B.C.") and the nattering asides—"Francine said there are forty-four universes"—of her "spirit guide." Influenced by Francine and theorist Erich Van Daniken, who believes astronauts existed in ancient times, Browne ascribes most unexplained phenomena to extraterrestrials from the Andromeda galaxy, who are responsible for the Pyramids (built with "anti-gravity rods"), crop circles (formed by aliens to "get their message across") and the blood-sucking Chupacabra ("a creature from another planet that was put here for research purposes and sometimes runs amok").



Mysteries of the Unexplained
by H. G. Carlson

It has a little bit of everything in it! Everything unexplained that is.... A wonderful read and a great addition to any serious researcher's collection.



Unexplained! Strange Sightings, Incredible Occurrences & Puzzling Physical Phenomena
by Jerome Clark

Unexplained! Strange Sightings, Incredible Occurrences & Puzzling Physical Phenomena

Clark's new, expanded edition of "Unexplained!" is one of the finest overviews of paranormal mysteries available today. I have been a fan of Clark's since his "Creatures of the Outer Edge" of 1978 (co-authored with his occasional writing partner, the equally dependable Loren Coleman). Clark's clear and professional writing style has only improved over the years. A sly, very subtle wit frequently emerges ("perhaps wisely, he takes this vague idea no further"). Although it's evident Clark's mind is open to most of the phenomena explored in the book, for the most part he keeps his opinions to himself, opting instead to let his reader make his or her own judgment based on the information available.



The Mars Mystery: The Secret Connection Between Earth and the Red Planet
by Graham Hancock


The Mars Mystery: The Secret Connection Between Earth and the Red Planet

The Mars Mystery: The Secret Connection Between An asteroid transformed Mars from a lush planet with rivers and oceans into a bleak and icy hell. Is Earth condemned to the same fate, or can we protect ourselves and our planet from extinction? In his most riveting and revealing book yet, Graham Hancock examines the evidence that the barren Red Planet was once home to a lush environment of flowing rivers, lakes, and oceans. Could Mars have sustained life and civilization?



Atlantis: Insights from a Lost Civilization
by Shirley Andrews


Atlantis: Insights from a Lost Civilization

"Shirley Andrews, in an illustrative line of prehistorians (Herodotus, Plato, Ignatius Donnolly, Edgar Cayce, Manly Palmer Hall, and Zecharia Sitchin) offers the most comprehensive and accessible synthesis of knowledge about the reality of Atlantis. She has taken it from the realm of legend to the edges of frontier science." --- Paul Ward, author, Solarian Legacy: Metascience & a New Renaissance.




The Mystery of the Earth's Mantle

by A. Malakhov, David Sobolev


The Mystery of the Earth's Mantle

Boiling liquid magma or super hard matter? Inconceivably high temperatures or cold neighboring on absolute zero? What are the depths of the Earth like? What mysteries does its mantle conceal? Science cannot as yet give the exact answers to these questions, though myriads of different hypotheses have been put forth. This is a fascinating book about the romance of prospecting, about the pertinacious investigations of geologists studying the inside of our planet. The author, Professor Anatoly Malakhov, D.Sc. (Geology and Mineralogy) was well known to the Soviet reading public for his previous popular-science books A Hundred Professions of a Geologist and Stories about Stones.



Mysterious America: The Revised Edition
by Loren Coleman

Secrets in the Fields: The Science and Mysticism of Crop Circles
by Freddy Silva


Secrets in the Fields: The Science and Mysticism of Crop Circles

Silva, who has worked in graphic design and advertising for most of his professional life, conveys his keen passion for earth mysticism in this probing examination of crop circles. He examines the history of crop circles, human interactions with them, their probable implications, and, in a section that is alone worth the price of the books for supporters, their effects on our current worldview. Silva also delves deeply into the evidence for crop circles' authenticity. In arguing that they are trans-human events, he discusses the role of electromagnetism and its effects, UFO phenomena and their relation to crop circles, the relationship between crop circles and healing, evidence supporting psychic ability, and language's ability to affect information consciously and subconsciously (this section is sure to stimulate those who suspect that crop circles are a hoax). Readers may be inspired to reexamine preconceived ideas, as Silva's explanations are detailed and well researched and avoid technical jargon. Footnotes and an extensive bibliography encourage further exploration. Recommended for psychic phenomena or metaphysical and New Age collections in public libraries, and for collections including contemporary works on controversies in science and mysticism.

by Janet Bord, Colin Bord

Dictionary of Earth Mysteries

The Illustrated Encyclopedia of Ancient Earth Mysteries
by Paul Devereux


The Illustrated Encyclopedia of Ancient Earth Mysteries

The illustrations are stunning, the text well researched, well written and with some subtle tongue in cheek observations as the author debunks some myths and adds depth to others. It is one of those books one wants to dip into again and again and each time some new knowledge emerges. It is made to be really used too. The book is so robustly put together it will probably end up as a family heirloom.

Ancient Inventions
by Peter James, Nick Thorpe

This work will be used as much for its historical information and accounts of ancient daily life as it will be for recreational reading.
