"Atlantis and the Gods of Antiquity" was recorded by Manly P. Hall on December 6th, 1981. In this lecture, the myth and possible location of the Atlantis mystery is explored, in a new way: seeing Atlantis as part of a larger empire instead of a single island. Hall suggests that before its final destruction, groups of Atlanteans were distributed around the world, and may be part of the story behind the Egyptian and other civilizations.

Most interesting is the psychological aspect that Atlantis is a metaphor for our submerged personalty, and, that the myth serves as a warning in that if our gifts, powers, talents and technologies in selfish or destructive ways we too will ultimately be destroyed.
