This Blog ties in with my 'Atlantis Part One' album. Plato said in his Critias the Temple of Poseidon had ''a strange barbaric appearance'', suggesting it wasn't Classical [ie, Greek] in style. Regarding its dimensions, it was c.600 ft [180 m] long, c.300 ft [90 m] wide, and nearly as high.
Left: the Device Temple from my Jan/Feb 1998 dreams.
Right: Based on the 'readings' of Edgar Cayce, 'The Sleeping Prophet'.
Above: based on Jan Turlin's 'Atlantean Temple' in Berlitz's Atlantis: The Lost Continent Revealed. [The staircase and obelisks are my additions.]

Above is Walter Schinkel's design for the 1816 production of Mozart's The Magic Flute.
Above: Mikalojus Ciurlionis [1908]. Vortices/Interdimensional Portals are being opened on some of the pyramids.

Above is the Temple of Poseidon by Lloyd K Townsend and comes from Mysteries of The Unknown: Mystic Places [Time-Life Books, 1987].
Above: Bill Stoneham: The City, Temple of Poseidon and Royal Palace. In my 1998 dreams I saw, from the balcony of the Throne Room of the Royal Palace, a view such as Stoneham's:-
" the glories of Psidonis [the Atlantean Capital]. The vista was magnificent, as the Palace was elevated above the sprawling, bustling metropolis, giving almost an 'eagle's-eye view'. The pale stone and marble created a breathtaking vision of ethereal splendour, almost heavenly in the bright, yet hazy light. His Majesty drew my attention, with his staff, to one particular structure. I could just discern what appeared to be a pyramid and obelisks on the roof. This was my first sighting of the Device Temple... .?

Atlantis and The Caribbean
Graham Hancock, in Heaven's Mirror, wrote:
''At dawn on the spring equininox in 10,500 BC, Aquarius was setting due west, Leo was rising due east, Orion lay on the meridian due south, and Draco due north''.
While Leo and Orion have been identified as the Sphinx and Giza pyramids respectively, by Hancock and Robert Bauval, and Draco as Angkor, Cambodia, the location of 'Aquarius' is less certain. Hancock raised the possibility of Bimini.
1. In 1948 Ed Wilson, a mayoral candidate from Orlando, experienced turbulence here while flying at 250 ft. From 50 ft he saw ''a slanting building like a huge mountain'', which he estimated to be 100-250 ft high. Wilson said the air was ''bright crimson''. Upon returning to the airport he discovered his radio had been ''shorted out by some high frequency shock, or a mysterious high voltage in the air''.
2. Approximate location of Dr Ray Brown's pyramid [1970]. He descovered it 135 ft down near the Bari/Berry Islands in the Bahamas, 20 miles from the edge of an undersea drop known as the ?Tongue of the Ocean?. It was ?shining like a mirror?. And about 120 ft high, though only the top 90 ft was visible above the sand.
It appeared as the Giza pyramids once looked: capstone, smooth-faced, and with blocks so tightly jointed a blade couldn?t slot between them. Around it lay ruined buildings which, according to pilots, stretch for about 5 miles. Pyramids, domes and arches have been sighted around the Grand Bahama Banks, near Haiti and San Domingo, while extensive ruins are said to lie off Cuba. [ref: Berlitz, The Bermuda Triangle, 1984, pg. 132].
3. In 1978 Ari Marshall, a Greek industrialist, saw the pyramid sighted in 1977. The apex was ''about 150 ft from the surface, with the total depth of about 650 ft''. From a side opening ''shining white objects'' were being ''swept...by turbulence''. He thought they were energy or gaseous emissions. At a lower level they re-emerged, the water ''in this deep area...green instead of black near the pyramid even at night''.
4. British charts, at 23o 34'N and 80o W, show a rise 300 fathoms down. This reaches 38 ft below the surface.
5. U.S. Marine and British Admiralty charts indicate a feature at 250 fathoms [1 fathom = 6 ft] off Cay Sal [23o 26' N and 79o 43' W], rising to 42 ft below the surface. With the aid of a map of that area [above], I decided to test this theory..
However, I encountered three problems. Firstly, as the extent of the ruins has not been fully discovered, investigated and charted, there are 'stars' missing. Secondly, not all the structures may've been included in the 'star map'. Thirdly, as a result, the alignment of the 'terrestrial constellation', in relation to its heavenly counterpart, is uncertain, especially when the 'precession of the equinoxes' is taken into consideration.
