Pierre <\/strong>C<\/strong>arnac <\/strong>(1921-2008)<\/strong> was the pen name of Professor Doru Todericiu, a \"pierre<\/a>Romanian who has written\"\"<\/a> extensively on prehistory.

In 1971 Carnac explored the Bimini<\/a> Stones with Dimitri Rebikoff<\/a> and concluded that they were remnants of Plato\u2019s lost civilisation. He published a book[<\/sup>218<\/a><\/sup>]<\/sup> on Bimini in 1973. However, three decades were to pass before he had published another\u00a0work[<\/sup>219<\/a><\/sup>]<\/sup>, also in French,\u00a0 L’Atlantide, Autopsie d’un Mythe<\/em>,\u00a0\u00a0<\/sup><\/strong>dealing exclusively with Atlantis{4530aP}<\/sup><\/span>. In it he invokes the Egyptian Book of the Dead <\/em>to demonstrate that a meteorite impact in the Atlantic destroyed Atlantis, echoing the work of Otto Muck. The attached map by Carnac shows his preferred location for Atlantis.<\/p>\n
