Genesis Veracity - Where Is The Mexican Aztlan
by Brent RiggsMexicans speak of Aztlan, also know as Atlan, as their ancient homeland. Atlan means "land of the Herons" according to "the company line" and was allegedly located in the desert Southwest of the U.S. It seems that this is in order to say that it is the ancient Mexican homeland in the current United States of America.
Yet, an ancient Mexican history book, the Popol Vu, says that the ancient ancestors sailed across the Eastern Ocean to Central America in a time of "black rain and constant twilight" also known as the Ice Age. The Eastern Ocean is, of course, the Atlantic Ocean which is derived from the name Atlas, who was a son of Posidon ("Father" Sidon), a son of Canaan, who was a son of Ham, also known as Chronus, Gargoris, Khem, and Cham.
So, the empire of Atlas was the ancient Mexican homeland. This maritime empire encompassed the coastal regions in many parts of the Atlantic during the Ice Age. The Atlas Mountains located near Gibraltar were named after him. There are submerged ruins of this empire that are reported off of southern Spain, Morocco, the Teneriffe Islands, and the Bimini Islands which are just east of Miami. All of these areas were coastal port facilties during the Ice Age when the sea levels were approximately 100 meters lower.
The Dutch have an ancient legend about a now submerged kingdom called Atland, the British about Avalon, the Spanish, Atlantica, the Portuguese, Atlantida, and of course, the Mexicans about Atlan. Obviously, they are all talking about the same Atlantic Ice Age kingdom whose namesake was Atlas, the Map Man, who utilized the ancient mapping methodology described in article #2 at IceAgeCivilizations.com.
The calendar system of the ancient Mexicans was based on the precession numbers from this mapping methodology. You can see that their ancestors, the Atlanteans, were from Atlan/Aztlan. This empire was submerged at the conclusion of the Ice Age.
