An A-Z Guide to the Search for Plato's Atlantis

Sylvain Tristan is young French researcher who has adopted the theories of Jean Deruelle, who advocated the idea that the Atlanteans were in fact the Megalith Builders of the Bronze Age who left us a legacy of remarkable structures from Scandinavia, along the Atlantic seaboard including the British Isles and on down into the Mediterranean as far as ‘Malta. Tristan also subscribes to Deruelle’s contention that the capital of this civilisation had been located on the Dogger Bank in the North Sea, between England and Denmark.

 A second major influence on Tristan’s thinking was the writings of Alan Butler, who among other matters, has argued [623] for the use of 366-degree geometry by the Megalith Builders.

 Tristan has expanded on the work of his mentors in two books [624][625]
