Of these Atlantes their countries, deeds of yore, &c. Much has been written, and much more remains to beelucidated: they can be traced Eastward as far as the very Centre ofAsia, once called Turan, through Scythia, in the North and Persia inthe South, to the utmost verge of Africa and Europe Westwards. Next tothe famed Island Atlantis, or rather _Megatlantides_ which was America!the smaller Atlantis seated midway between the two continents, has beensupposed to have sunk when the Volcanos of the ...Azores, Canaries andother African Islands did explode. The American Nations connected with these were widely scattered inAmerica, and chiefly wherever the earliest monuments were spread, evenas far as Chili to the South, in Guyana to the East under the name of_Atures_ or _Atules_, and Northwards as far as Ohio and Illinois. It iseasy to trace surprising analogies of Languages between the earlylanguages of South Europe and North Africa, with the Chilians, Peruvians, Muyzcas, Haytians, Tulans or Tol-tecas, &c.
