He also tied Gothic flood legends, Krodo and Satar with Chronos and Saturn, and Baal with Bel in a Poseidon and Atlas orbit, toward a common origin that might be Atlantis.
Ouranos marries his sister Ge, and the Phoenician text Donnelly quotes gives their sons as "Ilus (El), who is called Chronos, and Betylus (Beth-El), and Dagon, which signifies bread-corn, and Atlas (Tammuz?)".

For Donnelly the names line up with Plato: Autochthon, Atlas and Poseidon appear in both, and Plato's kings Mestor and Mneseus "are probably the gods Misor and Amynus of the Phoenicians".
According to Donnelly, Greek tradition placed the island of Olympus "in the far west," "in the ocean beyond Africa," and "on the western boundary of the known world." He adds that Plato puts the land where Poseidon and Atlas ruled in Atlantis.
Murray, as Donnelly quotes him, describes Atlas as a giant on "the western confines of the earth" who "supported the heavens on his shoulders."
The term "Atlantic" and the name of the Atlas Mountains are not derived from any known Old World language.
The existence of an Atlan city in Darien, Central America, supports this connection, and Plato's account names Atlas, the son of Poseidon, as the namesake of Atlantis and the Atlantic Ocean.
The Atlas Mountains in Africa and the Atlantes people in the vicinity are likely remnants of Atlantean influence.
The use of the name Atlas and the presence of the Atlantes near these mountains suggest a historical connection to Atlantis.
This link is reinforced by the use of "Atlas" and "Atlantis" across different locations and cultures, indicating a shared origin or significant influence from the lost civilization.
