Vladimir Pakhomov was born in 1943 in Central Russia. He is a professional mathematician and a researcher into ancient structures, calendars, mythology and astronomy.

He has a website^(a) in English that, among other subjects, offers a fairly standard outline of the ‘Atlantis in the Atlantic’ school of thought. His only claim to ‘originality’ is his rather frenetic identification of the trident of Poseidon as a representation of outline of the islands of Atlantis as viewed from the sea!

Pakhomov has also written^(b)(c) about the Giza pyramids and Sphinx including a pathetic attempt to relate contour outlines on the plateau with a map of the North American continent. These two WebPages are intended to be teasers to encourage readers to purchase his e-book, an intention that failed to prompt me to buy.
