dawn of the winter solstice, Aztec priests assembled on the summits of the
Huizachtleatl Mountains.
The Cheyenne Indians of North America believed that a mother died and
took her daughters with her into the night sky to become the Pleiades. Remarkably,
this is identical to the Greek version. The Lakota Sioux likewise called them “the
Seven Sisters.” No less remarkable was the Incas’ worship of the Pleiades as the
Aclla Cuna, “the Chosen Women,” or “the Little Mothers.” These New World
interpretations of the Pleiades credibly echo Atlantean contacts with Native
Americans in pre-Columbian times. Given their particular identities, the Pleiades
correspond individually to the following realms within the Atlantean Empire:
Alkyone: Atlantis itself, through Phaeacia’s Alkyonous.
Claeno: the Azore Islands, through her husband’s reign over the
“Blessed Isles.”
Elektra: Troy; her son, Dardanus, was the founder of Troy.
Merope: North Africa, the Meropids of Morocco.
Maia: Yucatan, the Maia Civilization:
Sterope: Western Italy; her son founded Pisa, the Etruscan Pisae.
Taygete: the Canary Islands, from Tegueste, a Guanche province
in Tenerife.Pohaku o Kane
The “Stone of Kane,” an elongated monolith from 1 to 6 feet long, set upright
to resemble a column within every Hawaiian household, where it was the center
of worship by male family members only. Its location in the hale mua, or men’s
eating quarters, reaffirms its ritual association with Mu, the sunken civilization of
the Pacific. Kane was a creator-destroyer god responsible for the Great Flood
that overwhelmed a former kingdom of immense kahuna, or spiritual power, known
variously as Hiva,Haiviki,Kahiki, Pali-uli, etc.
Each Pohaku o Kane was considered a sacred version of an original pillar
from that vanished realm, as implied by its waterworn condition. Cunningham
observed, “Not just any stone could be used as the Pohaku o Kane. Such a stone
was pointed out by Kane during a dream or vision” (84). Like distant Thailand’s
La Mu-ang, the Stone of Kane was Hawaii’s simulacrum of a column from some
sacred building in lost Mu.

The sea-god in Kritias who, after the creation of the world, was given the island
that would later become Atlantis. A native woman he loved provided him with five
sets of male twins, progenitors of a royal line. Poseidon honored her hillside home
by encircling it with a moat, thereafter creating two more sets of concentric rings of
