It destroyed all that remained of the Atlantean continent, with the exception of the island to which Plato gave the name of Poseidonis, which in its turn was submerged in the fourth and final great catastrophe of 9,564 b.c.
appears to have been written about 3,500 years ago, among the Mayas of Yucatan, and the following is its description of the catastrophe that submerged the island of Poseidonis:—"In the year 6 Kan, on the 11th Muluc in the month Zac, there occurred terrible earthquakes, which continued without interruption until the 13th Chuen.
Daitya, the smaller and more southerly of the islands, has almost entirely disappeared, while of Ruta there only remains the relatively small island of Poseidonis.
This map was compiled about 75,000 years ago, and it no doubt fairly represents the land surface of the earth from that period onwards till the final submergence of Poseidonis in 9564 b.c., though during that period minor changes must have taken place.
They were always a mountain-loving people, and their chief settlements were in the mountainous districts of the interior, which a comparison of Maps, 1 and 4 will show to be approximately conterminous with what ultimately became the island of Poseidonis.
It must also be borne in mind that down to the very end when Poseidonis disappeared, an Intitiate emperor or king—or at least one acknowledging the "good law"—held sway in some part of the island continent, acting under the guidance of the Occult Hierarchy in controlling where possible the evil sorcerers, and in guiding and instructing the small minority who were still willing to lead pure and wholesome lives.
In Poseidonis the population of the whole island was more or less mixed.
The final submergence of Poseidonis sent another tidal wave over Egypt.
Thus in the later days of Poseidonis there were several entirely different languages—all however belonging to the agglutinative type—for it was not till Fifth Race days that the descendants of the Semites and Akkadians developed inflectional speech.
The following description is taken from an air-boat in which on one occasion three ambassadors from the king who ruled over the northern part of Poseidonis made the journey to the court of the southern kingdom.
It must be stated, however, that in the later days of Poseidonis, a system approximating to our own currency was adopted, and the triple mountain visible from the great southern capital was the favourite representation on the State coinage.
In the later days of Poseidonis they had, as a rule, given place to the system of individual ownership which we know so well.
All through the centuries then the various rituals composed to celebrate these various forms of worship were carried on, till the final submergence of Poseidonis, by which time the countless hosts of Atlantean emigrants had already established on foreign lands the various cults of the mother-continent.
These events led to the loss of large parts of the empire, though the capital city, Poseidonis, remained above water for several millennia.
The final submergence of Poseidonis in 9,564 BCE
It remained that mountainous region in the decadence of Atlantis, and of Ruta in the Ruta and Daitya epoch, and it practically constituted Poseidonis, the last remnant, submerged in 9564 BC.
One page states 11,446 years ago for when Poseidonis sank.
The process lasted until 11,446 years ago, when its last island, which we may properly call Poseidonis, sank with a crash.
Final submergence of Poseidonis 9564 BC.
9,564 BC (about 11,590 years ago): The Lost Lemuria (1904); The Sinking of Poseidonis and Its Impact on Ancient Egypt

Poseid: The name of the civilization or place where the story unfolds, a refined and advanced society.
Salda: Lolix’s native land, mentioned when she compares customs of her homeland with those of Poseid.
Gwauxln, observing his struggle, assures him that Poseid's resources will be made available to help him.
To avoid marrying Lolix, Zailm lies, claiming that Poseid law forbids marriage with foreigners, though this is untrue.
Poseid - A nation whose resources are offered to help the narrator in his mission.
Ganje - A location where a Poseid commissary is stationed, where the Saldee general spends his time.
Caiphul – The city where Zailm and Anzimee reside, located in Poseid.

The chapter "The Adoption of Zailm" narrates the protagonist Zailm's visit to Prince Menax's office, where he finds Rai Gwauxln, the ruler of Poseid, with the prince.
It symbolizes divine power and is part of religious rites in Poseid, including cremating bodies by casting their ashes into the light.
In this chapter, several examples of advanced technology in Poseid are described, much of which is tied to mystical or occult elements:
It seems to function effortlessly, without attendants or a crew, showcasing Poseid's mastery over flight and transportation technologies.

The chapter emphasizes the societal values of Poseid, particularly its deep respect for education and the essential role of women in maintaining the nation's greatness.
Poseid's society is portrayed as one that recognizes no gender distinction in intellectual achievement, valuing both men and women equally in their contributions to knowledge and governance.
The educational system is a cornerstone of Poseid's strength, providing its people with the wisdom and skills necessary to lead and maintain their civilization's advanced status.
It suggests that these values are what keep Poseid at the forefront among nations and hints at the idea that the future of any great nation, including America, lies in upholding these principles

Poseid is described as a highly advanced society focused on the mechanical arts, sciences, and material progress, utilizing technologies such as aerial and marine vehicles, as well as advanced communication systems that allow instant, wireless contact over long distances.
Despite Poseid's technological prowess, they recognize the superiority of Suemis and Necropan in controlling unseen forces, which pose a significant threat to even the most advanced Poseidian technologies.
The text suggests that while Poseid excels in material achievements, Suemis and Necropan have achieved a higher level of power through their deep understanding of the occult, making them formidable and respected, if somewhat scorned, by the Poseidians.

Poseid - The nation or civilization where the Poseidi lived.
The Atlantides were given to personification of the principles of nature and of the objects of the earth, seas and skies; but this was purely a result of the national love of poetry, and could be mainly traced to the favor which popular fancy had accorded to a chronological epic history of Poseid, wherein the chief men and women figured as heroes and heroines.
[^90-1] The Poseid nation believed in a heaven of good effects for those who put good causes into operation, and there was a region filled with bad effects for the wicked; the two places were adjacent, and those who were neither wholly good, nor wholly had, were supposed to live on a middle territory, so to speak.

As antedating the reign of Rai Gwauxln, attention is called to a period of time embracing four thousand three hundred and forty years, inclusive of the main events of Poseid history.
It was superior strategy which finally gave victory to the Poseid hosts.
Inconsequential civil wars had several times made a change of political complexion, so that Poseid had seen itself governed by absolute autocrats, by oligarchic and by the theocratic rule, by masculine and by feminine rulers, and at last by a republican monarchial system, of which Rai Gwauxln was the head, when I lived as Zailm, in Atlantis.
Such is the synopsis of the history of Poseid which I gathered from a volume drawn from the Agacoe library.
I might relate other scenes, other features, of that long historic period, and show how Poseid came to found great colonies in North and South America, and in those three great remnants of Lemuria, of which Australia is but the one-third left to the world by that cataclysm which sunk Atlantis; also of how Atl founded certain large colonies in eastern Europe at an age when there was no western Europe, and in parts of Asia and Africa.
The Poseid people had a profound understanding of the universe as a simple, unified system governed by two primal forces: matter and dynamic energy.
Dynamic Energy and Vibration: The Poseid believed that all matter and phenomena could be explained by different rates of vibration.
Sound from Light: The Poseid knew how to convert light into sound by offering resistance to it, a discovery they anticipated would lead to groundbreaking future inventions.
Magnetic and Electrical Manipulation: The Poseid civilization understood the relationship between magnetism and electricity.
Telephones and Telephotos without Wires: The Poseid used advanced technology to communicate over distances without the need for physical connections.
Heat-Conduction Technology: Poseid also developed a technology referred to as "caloriveyance," which allowed the conduction or transfer of heat over distances, again without the need for physical connections.
Mind-Controlled Forces: Beyond the physical technologies, the Poseid discovered forces superior to magnetism that could be operated by the mind.
Poseid - Refers to the ancient civilization that had advanced knowledge and technologies.
Incal - The divine entity or God, believed by the Poseid to be immanent in nature and the source of all creation.
Atlans - The people of Atlantis, also referred to as Poseid, who possessed advanced knowledge and technology.
Poseid - The name of the civilization, often associated with Atlantis, a mythical island or continent believed to have existed in the distant past with advanced technology.
In this context, it is identified with Poseid.
In their consideration of natural laws, the philosophers of Poseid had come to the conclusive hypothesis and working theory that the material universe was not a complex entity but in its primality extremely simple.
Commencing with dynamic energy as first sensibly manifest in the example furnished by simple vibration, the Poseid position may be outlined as follows: A very low rate of vibration may be felt; an increase of rate heard.
Poseid knew that light gives out sound when correctly resisted.
From this knowledge came all the wondrous triumphs of that old age, and one by one they are emerging to-day after their long oblivion, till to-morrow they shall awake in crowds, and press to rediscovery by threes and fours, and then by platoons and companies and legions, till all the treasures of Poseid shall be again on earth, in air, and sea.
The Poseid investigator thus became cognizant of wondrous forces of nature which he might bend to the uses of mankind.
Thus Poseid, like Job of old, knew the path to the.
That vibration of the One Substance governed and composed all realms was a discovery which solved the problem of the conveyance of images of light, pictures of forms, as well as of sound and heat, just as the telephone thou knowest so well conveys images of sound, only In Poseid no wires or other sensible material connection was required in the use, at whatever distance, of either telephones or telephotes, nor even in caloriveyance, that is, heat-conduction.
Not earth, air, the depth of the seas nor those of interstellar space will hold secrets from that man who approaches from the Godward side, as did Poseid.
Poseid - The narrator's native land or civilization.
Atl - A region or area associated with Poseid and its colonies.
As co-efficients I purposed thoroughly to ground myself in synthetic and analytical literature, not alone of my native Poseid, but also that of the Suerni and Necropanic languages.
The reasons which induced me to choose the curriculum which I have mentioned were, that as a geologist and coordinate scientist I hoped to make new discoveries of value, and to place them in book form before the world, at least before the Poseid peoples, who esteemed themselves most of the world, and end scarcely to be attained otherwise than by this course of study.
Rai - A title used for a leader or ruler in Poseid.
Poseid - The name of the ancient civilization where the story is set.
However, it is not the scheme of this chapter to discuss Poseid politics, but to describe the ministerial and monarchical palaces with which the nation furnished its elected officers, one for each prince, but for the emperor, three.
A description therefore of one palace will serve a double purpose, that of presenting an idea of the most notable residence in the great Atlantean empire, since I will describe the main palace of the emperor; and, secondly, that of illustrating the prevailing style of governmental architecture in the period during which I resided in Poseid.
Nevertheless, it precedes the histories handed down in manuscript, papyrus rolls and rock-inscriptions by many centuries, seeing that Poseid was no longer known in the earth when history's first pages were chronicled by the earliest historian using papyrus; nay, nor even yet earlier, when the sculptors of the obelisks of Egypt and the rock-inscribers of the temples cut pictorial histories in enduring granite.
No longer known was Poseid, for it is to-day approaching nine thousand years since the waters of the ocean engulfed our fair land and left no sign, not even so much as was left of those two cities hidden away beneath lava and ashes and for sixteen centuries of the Christian era thought never to have had existence.
It is not strange that thou art incredulous, my friend, when I speak of these inventions which thou hast considered the special property of to-day; but I speak from a knowledge born of experience, seeing that I lived then, and live now; lived not only in Poseid twelve thousand years ago, but also in the United States of America, before, during and after the War of the Secession.
If Incal is impelled by God, the Son shall find how his Father doeth this thing, and shall presently do likewise again, even as Man so once in Poseid.
But greater things than these which we did might ye do; ye are now, ye were then; ye are Poseid returned, and on a higher plane!
Yet, this much I can say, not inappropriately at this juncture, that Poseid had not in my day, the modem, yet also very ancient, annoyance of labor strikes, blocking capital and enterprise, starving the artisan, and causing more suffering on the part of the poor than such annoyances can ever bring to the doors of the rich.
The broad principle of equity between employer and employee governed in Poseid; it mattered not what a person did for another person, but the whole equation hinged on this question: Was some service performed by one person for another?
EXCERPTS FROM THE POSEID LABOR LAWS.
It is in this that the modern Anglo-Saxon world, which is Poseid (and Suern) reincarnating, shows one mark of the slow but sure upward progress begotten of time; proves that although man moves, as does all else, sensate and insensate, in a circle, yet that circle is like a screw-thread, ever progressing around and around, but each time moving on a higher plane.
Poseid must be compelled by its advanced minds to do what is fair towards the weak.
Thus we behold modern employers often doing of free will what the ancient Poseid did because of law, namely, sharing profits with their employees.
But civilization in all ages, among all nations, is wont to express itself in ways which, if modern language be used to describe them, will seem almost identical; so that in ancient Atl and in modem America the term "strike" may be properly used to designate a labor revolt; the same principle characterizes all other phases; for from age to age the world makes but slow progress, and is to-day not as far advanced in its present sub-cycle, nor as civilized, as it was in olden Poseid.
Such, in the main, were the chief features of the industrial world in Poseid.
So when the modem world of the Christian epoch came to the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, particularly the last named, then began the reincarnation of this Poseid era, and for a time the tendency to oppression again came uppermost.
Finally, strange and paradoxical as it may appear, this betterment is the direct child of the old-time rights extorted by might in Poseid, and to-day, reincarnated offspring of reincarnated oppression, as in Atlantis oppression sprang reincarnate from the grave of other ages gone before, previous to the wondrous memorial of Gizeh.
"Am I not an Atlan, a Poseid, and is not that name synonymous with freedom, honor, power?
"Poseid is the Queen of the Sea, yea, and of the world also, since all nations pay tribute of praise and commerce to us--all emulate us.
To rule in Poseid, then, is not that virtually to rule over all the earth?
Atlantis, or Poseid, was an empire whose subjects enjoyed the freedom allowed by the most limited monarchical rule, The general law of official succession presented to every male subject a chance for preferment to office.
The great underlying principle of the Poseid political fabric might be said to have been "an educational measuring-rod for every ballot-holder, but the sex of the holder, no one's business."
Nor was race, color or sex considered, the only prerequisite being that the candidate for admission must be sixteen years of age, and the possessor of a good education obtained in the common schools, or at some of the lesser seats of collegiate learning, as the Xioquithlon in the capital city of some one of the Poseid States, as at Numea, Terna, Idosa, Corosa, or even at Marzeus' lower college, Marzeus being the principal art-manufacturing center of Atl.
This, reader, was the sole method of reaching the summit of the highest mountain of Poseid, or Atlantis, as thou callest the island-continent.
Our Poseid concept stood for us in the place of the Spirit of Life, Parent of all.
I did think of this possibility but, Poseid-like, put aside fear by reflecting that I was trusting in Incal, who would do whatever was good for me.
I caused them to sign a paper to that effect and to seal it with the most inviolable sign possible in Poseid, namely, to make their signatures with their own blood.
I knew in later times that the laws of Poseid made every mine a tithepayer to the empire, and that a mine worked without acknowledgment of this legal lien was liable to confiscation.
The narrator, tasked with informing Suern's court of their ruler's death, faces resistance from the people, who mock Poseid’s authority.
However, he successfully asserts his power, appointing a temporary governor from among the Incaleni (a spiritual order), and prepares to return to Poseid.

Poseid is torn apart by natural calamities: earthquakes, volcanic eruptions and tsunamis.
Oliver places this link inside Asian population movements that included both civilized Semitic tribes and barbarian groups, with the latter occupying former Poseid lands and leaving the mounds.
Then, with the leavings of the civilization in Atlantis (in Poseidia, more specific), Iltar - with a group of followers that had been of the household of Atlan, the followers of the worship of the ONE with some ten individuals - left this land Poseidia, and came westward, entering what would now be a portion of Yucatan.
The City was suddenly destroyed by the rushing in of the sea through huge fissures caused by explosions of gas ; but, unlike the catastrophe in which the island of Poseidonis sank within twenty-four hours, these convulsions continued over a period of two years.
By comparing Maps 1 and 4, we can deduce that their primary settlements coincided with what later became Poseidonis Island.
The last remnant is often called Poseidonis: Plato’s island in Theosophical reading, the final Atlantic holdout before the last sink.
Plato’s island story sits beside Poseidonis as the last remnant narrative.
Plato’s Critias sits beside Poseidonis as the last-island story, not as proof of the whole Secret Doctrine chronology.
Poseidonis is the last remnant in Theosophical reading.
Poseidia / Poseidonis (Greek)
"Wouldst learn of the destruction of Lemorus, that great people who were in the Earth before the Age of Ice, when the world knew no cold, nor snow, nor frost; who antedated Poseid by countless ages?
Atlantis (Poseid) experiences multiple cataclysms over centuries, including a major volcanic event during the protagonist Zailm's era (~10,114 BCE) that alters global geography: it creates the Sahara Desert by draining surface water in Necropan (Africa), forms the Grand Canyon through upheavals in Arizona, and redirects an inland sea to the Gulf of California.
4th cycle (Poseidonis) ended 9,564 BCE
