Atlanteans as the builders of a technology superior to 20th-century accomplish-
ments. Because Cayce has been verified in at least some important details, other
researchers believe he was telling the whole truth, however difficult it may be for
some to grasp, about the sunken civilization.
Regardless of the response he elicits, an important part of Edgar Cayce’s legacy
is the Association for Research and Enlightenment (A.R.E.) he founded and which
continues to prosper in his home at Virginia Beach. It contains the largest library
of its kind in the world, featuring not only all of his “life-readings,” but many
hundreds of books, papers, feature articles, and reference materials about Atlantis.
The A.R.E. is also deeply involved in scientific investigation and study on behalf
of the lost realm, including lectures and expeditions to various parts of the world,
particularly at Andros and Bimini.

Ce-calli
Described in the Aztec Anales de
Quahititlan as “the Great Water,” the
world-class deluge that destroyed a former
age of greatness and wickedness.
Celaeno
In Greek myth, daughter of the sea-
goddess Pleione hence, one of the Pleiades,
or “Atlantises.” Celaeno taught occult science
to mortals. From her name derive all words
pertaining to things “celestial,” not only be-
cause she herself became a star in the night
sky, but through her knowledge of astrology
invented by her father, Atlas. Celaeno’s myth
tells of arcane spirituality and practices in-
vented in Atlantis, as carried by survivors of
its destruction to the reestablishment of civi-
lization in new lands. She married Lycus, a
king of the Blessed Isles, whose name was a
term in circulation throughout classical times referring to any unspecified group
of Atlantis islands, such as the Canaries or Madeira.
Chatwin, C.P.
A leading 20th-century naturalist, who stated in 1940 that the migratory
behavior of certain butterflies and birds in the North and South Atlantic strongly
suggested the former existence of the island civilization described by Plato.
