Pre-flood Nations and tribes

The Aryan and Japhetic Colonies
We come now to another question: “Did the Aryan or Japhetic race come from Atlantis?” If the Aryans are the Japhetic race, and if Japheth was one of the sons of the patriarch who escaped from the Deluge, then assuredly, if the tradition of Genesis be true, the Aryans came from the drowned land, to wit, Atlantis. According to Genesis, the descendants of the Japheth who escaped out of the Flood with Noah are the Ionians, the inhabitants of the Morea, the dwellers on the Cilician coast of Asia Minor, the Cyprians, the Dodoneans of Macedonia, the Iberians, and the Thracians. These are all now recognized as Aryans, except the Iberians.
Aryans and Japhetic Race: The passage suggests that if the Aryans are the Japhetic race and if Japheth was a son of Noah who survived the Deluge (biblical flood), then according to the tradition of Genesis, the Aryans would have originated from Atlantis.
The Mighty Hunter named Nimrod receives a brief mention after the flood in Genesis 6-9 as a great-grandson of Noah, grandson of Ham.

LaCroix proposed that the survivors of the flood, including the descendants of Noah, traveled to various parts of the world, bringing with them the knowledge of construction, astronomy, and spirituality.
