Edward<\/strong> A<\/strong>lexander<\/strong> (1981- ) is a Norwegian researcher currently living in Argentina. He is \"edward-maggador-alexander\"<\/a>endeavouring to promote the idea of a Latin American Atlantis. His thoughts on the subject were available on his American Atlantis Research website (a)<\/sup>, but it’s now closed down.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

His former website had a number of interesting ideas and\u00a0 focused on similarities between structures in Egypt and the New World. However, he does not offer any substantial evidence that might identify any particular location as the site of Plato\u2019s Atlantean capital or the date of its demise. He also fails to offer any explanation for an invasion from South America of the most distant part of the Mediterranean or evidence that any indigenous civilisation had a maritime culture capable of such a strange venture. I\u2019m sorry, but Edward Alexander, or Maggador IX-777\u00a0 as he sometimes calls himself, does not convince me.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Alexander is a conspiracy theorist and occultist, who claims to have been reincarnated on earth many times, over the past nine thousand years(<\/sup>b<\/sup>)<\/sup> since his distant origins in the Pleiades.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

While a belief in a life before birth is just as questionable as a belief in a life after death, I will let that pass. However, his Pleiadian ancestry should be dismissed as New Age twaddle.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Since the above was written, Alexander had developed a new website(c) <\/sup>that is now (2019) for sale, which included an image of himself that was eerily reminiscent of Augustus le Plongeon<\/a>. (See Above)<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Although Alexander has apparently offered little new on Atlantis in recent years, this may be a good thing. I should, in fairness, mention that Alexander is also the author of a number of books(d<\/sup>)<\/sup>.<\/p>\n
