Bali & Atlantis-The Lost Continent

After two weeks I finished reading the book written by a researcher from Brazil. It's title : Atlantis-The Lost Continent Finally Found. The writer, Prof. Arysio Santos Ph.D. dedicated 30 years of his life to research the location of Atlantis. I read the book that already translated in Bahasa Indonesia. The book contain 677 pages, I enjoy reading it. Even it's quite thick but I felt like addicted and couldn't stop reading till the end.

There is one interesting part written in the book about Bali Island. The writer said Bali Island was the edge of Atlantis (around 11,600 years ago). The strait of Lombok was the entry to the Atlantis. Mt. Agung in Bali island and Mt. Rinjani in Lombok island were the first pair of Pillar Hercules. It's called Pillar Hercules because when the mountain erupted the lava & ashes would be in high sky & forming a big pillar. It's interesting isn't it? If you have any comment please let me know.
