Atlantis Found in the Appalachians Mountains
Brad and Mary Sutherland traveled to Kentucky this year in search of the lost mines of Solomon and evidence of Atlantis in North America.
In Kentucky, they  met with J. Scott, a local treasure hunter .
In researching Swifts Lost Silver Mine we came upon valuable artifacts linking Atlantis to North America.
SWIFT'S LOST SILVER MINE CLUES  LEAD US  
TO THE ANCIENT TEMPLES AND INITIATION CAVES OF ATLANTIS

Clues in finding the Lost Swift Silver Mine  are based off
" Buried Treasures of Appalachians" , W.C Jameson  pg 81
Clues noted in Italics
Following the Clues are statements made by Mary Sutherland

Present day Floyd County

"....Late in the evening, Mundy hollered out, "here is the myrtle thicket. I know the way now.
We went down a "flight of Indian Stair steps at the top of the cliff."
....and crossed to the other side."
(These Indian Stair Steps Swift described were not Indian but were in fact,  Stone Steps leading up to an ancient temple - Photo of steps shown below)

























In the photo below you see Mary Sutherland standing on the ancient pathway leading from the Temple of the
Moon to the Temple of the Sun .  Mary is pointing to the Temple of the Sun . This is the pathway Swift took when  'crossing to the other side'.






















We climbed up and went 200 yards on the second ledge and found the opening to the mine.
We located the entrance of the mine Swift spoke of, but the mine was a cave from which they mined the silver.  Although a great find for James Scott, what was greater for Brad
and Mary was realizing that activity regarding  the cave could be dated back much futher than Swift. This cave , Mary believes was the Temple of the Sun's initiation cave used
for the rites of passage. The following photo shows  James Scott and Brad Sutherland investigating the entrance to the cave .

At the entrance of the cave we found ancient markings. Note the are perfectly round holes , indented in such a way where  the finger tip easily fits inside the rounded hole.
Being that the rocks are 'crystaline' based, it seems to me that these holes were used as some sort of 'crystaline' key board for the creation of harmonics or vibrational sound.
These rocks have a crystal base, so maybe the priest would quickly run his fingers over the holes or press fingers into the holes in sequence to produce some harmonic to
open a portal or create some magical event. portal or create some sort of magical event.  Creating harmonics from rocks was practiced during the times of the Atlanteans and
Ancient Kingdoms.

A VIRTUAL EXPEDITION
Phaistos Disc, seems to be similar to the artifact found in Kentucky. The Phaistos Disc was found in
the palace of Phaistos on Crete and , might have been linked with the Egyptian game of Senet and
Snake Game. H. Peter Aleff argues that the depictions are not a script, but are related to the signs of
the board game. Senet was a popular pastime in ancient Egypt from late pre-dynastic times on and
is well documented because it became an important part of the funerary magic and then evolved
into today's Backgammon. Its pieces simulated the passage of the player through life and, even
more importantly, through death and its perils. On its last field, they were reborn into the eternal
afterlife, just as the Backgammon pieces are still "born" at the end of their pursuit.
The Snake Game appears even earlier in the record, with the oldest surviving copies of any known
board game. It helped at least one king in the Old Kingdom Pyramid Texts to ascend to heaven and
so seems to have represented the same journey, except that its path was not folded, as in Senet,
but coiled into the spiral of a snake's rolled-up body. On one of its sculpted stone boards, the tail of
the snake ended in the head of a goose.
While in Kentucky, Jack Matney gave us this photo of a carved snake
rock formation he located  on the Kentucky/Virginia  Line.

of 'black' stone.
Following is taken from the writings of H. P. Blavatsky concerning
the traditions of the Lemurians and later adapted by the
Atlanteans.  Note the material used in the serpent/king bust fits in
perfectly with the ancient traditions.
