Michell, John (m)

John Michell (1933-2009) was educated at Eton and Cambridge. He had the strongly held view that ancient civilisations lived in greater harmony with nature and the zodiac, reflected in the alignment of ‘holy’ locations. This concept was elaborated in his 1969 book^[206] in which he brought together ley lines, astro-archaeology and sacred geometry.*[The book was revised as The New View Over Atlantis^[0704] in 1983.]* 

He was the author of many books^(a) but never dealt directly with the leading questions surrounding Plato’s Atlantis, such as its location, time or date. He uses Atlantis as a name to describe a very ancient global civilisation that possessed incredible powers such as the ability to fly and levitate the megalithic stones that are still to be seen throughout the planet. He offers lots of assertion and speculation but very little hard evidence.
