Smart as Schliemann was, did you know that he and his associates erred when they propounded the Invasion Theory that suggested that the original occupants of Northern India were driven south by Aryan invaders from the north?

This theory was advocated by the then British colonial masters as it served their purpose of "divide and rule", and to get the Indians to accept it was kinda' normal for their country to be invaded and occupied. The error of the theory was only pointed out in recent years by Indian archaelogists and historians on the basis of most recent evidence provided by the most recent excavations and a closer scrutiny of the Vedic texts and the Mahabharata.

BTW, it is this theory about the Aryans (by the German archaeologists of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries) that led Hitler to propound the concept of the master race.

Yea, I do suspect that beneath the sea waves and snow and ice of Antarctica lies the fabled lost continent of Atlantis. Maybe there is a "secret" entrance waiting to be discovered. FWIW, some folks speculate that UFOs originate from there.

Remember what I wrote a while back?

Your reply to my post in June shows you have been quite familiar with the theory you posted to me today.
