M: Macusis to Mu-yu-Moqo 187
Monan
Literally, “the Ancient One” of Brazil’s Tupinamba Indians, who believe he
long ago destroyed most of mankind with a “fire from heaven” extinguished by
a worldwide flood. Chronologer, Neil Zimmerer, writes that Monan allegedly
“enjoyed watching the humans suffer until the island of Atlantis sank.”
(See Irin Mage)Montezuma
Flood hero of the Piman or Papgos Indians of Arizona and Sonoroa, Mexico.
He came from a “great land” over the ocean, in the east, where an awful deluge
drowned most of his people. His name appears to have been passed down to two
Aztec emperors. Moctezuma I was the earliest Aztec emperor, while Moctezuma
II was the last such ruler, captured by the Spaniards and stoned to death by his
fellow countrymen.Mo-o
In western Micronesia, an Oleai glyph comprising a smaller circle at the center

from the outer rim of the inner circle to the inner rim of the larger. It appears to
represent the lost civilization of Mu, an island in the middle of the ocean culturally
connected to circum-Pacific territories.Moriori
The white-skinned natives of Chatham Island, lying several hundred miles
east of New Zealand. When questioned about their origins by British explorers in
the late 18th century, they told how their ancestors arrived at Chatham from a
great island kingdom in the west after it sank beneath the sea. The Moriori were
shortly thereafter exterminated through their exposure to European diseases,
against which they possessed no immunity.
(See Mu)Moselles Shoals
Lying at the same depth, 19 feet, as the Bimini Road, and approximately 5
miles further away to the northeast, Moselles Shoals is a jumbled collection of
squared, granite “columns,” resembling the collapsed ruin of a temple or public
edifice of some kind. This manmade appearance is enhanced by a total absence
of any other stones, megalithic or otherwise, on the sea bottom. At about 30 feet
across and perhaps 200 feet long, the “ruin” approximates the dimensions and
