Sinopsis

In "Atlantis: The Antediluvian World," Ignatius Donnelly embarks on an ambitious exploration of the legendary lost civilization of Atlantis, proposing that it serves as the root from which many ancient cultures stemmed. The book weaves together elements of mythology, archaeology, and history, illustrating Donnelly's belief in a prehistorical advanced society that influenced global civilizations. His literary style is characterized by passionate rhetoric and a persuasive tone, often blurring the lines between speculative theory and academic inquiry, reflecting the Victorian era's fascination with lost worlds and ancient mysteries. Donnelly, a noted politician and writer from Minnesota, was profoundly influenced by the intellectual milieu of the late 19th century, particularly the rise of Darwinian thought and theories of ancient civilizations. His extensive research combined with a personal obsession with the myths surrounding Atlantis informed his argument that myriad cultural parallels across the globe point to a singular, advanced civilization. This fervent belief was propelled further by his desire to challenge contemporary scientific orthodoxy and popularize a narrative that transcended the prevailing historical accounts. "Atlantis: The Antediluvian World" is highly recommended for readers intrigued by the intersections of history, myth, and archaeology. Donnelly's compelling narrative invites readers to reconsider accepted historical paradigms and fuels the imagination about lost epochs. Engaging and thought-provoking, this work is essential for those interested in the enduring allure of Atlantis and its impacts on our understanding of ancient civilizations.

    Did you know that Loki is the father of the monstrous creatures that are prophesied to kill the gods of Asgard? 
    When Heimdall blows his horn to signal the beginning of Ragnarök, the gods of Asgard are left with no choice but to face the forces of chaos on the battlefield of Vigrid. This is when Loki and his monstrous sons, Jörmungandr the World Serpent and Fenrir the Giant Wolf, will exact their revenge, a mission they will succeed in, although it will cost their lives. On this day, everyone, including the mightiest of gods, will spill blood on the battlefield. The entire world will perish, leaving only an empty void for life to happen all over again.

The myths that survived tell the story of how the world was first created by the gods using the dead body of a primeval giant, the existence of the different realms surrounding the universe, and various tales and lore about the gods’ adventures.

    Mapuche Empire - The Defenders...

    The origins of the Mapuche people trace back thousands of years, long before the arrival of Europeans in South America. They are one of the most resilient and enduring indigenous groups in the region, with a deep-rooted history in present-day Chile and Argentina. Archaeological evidence suggests that their ancestors inhabited these lands for at least 2,000 years, developing a distinct culture shaped by the diverse landscapes of the Andean foothills, valleys, and coastal regions. 
    The name "Mapuche" itself reflects their strong connection to the land, as it derives from "mapu" (earth) and "che" (people), meaning "people of the land." This bond influenced their way of life, from agriculture to spiritual beliefs. They cultivated maize, potatoes, quinoa, and beans while also engaging in hunting, fishing, and gathering. Unlike some of the great civilizations of South America, such as the Inca or the Maya, the Mapuche did not build massive stone cities. Instead, they lived in small, scattered settlements made up of rucas, traditional thatched-roof houses constructed from wood and straw, designed to withstand the varied climate of their territories. 
    Language played a crucial role in shaping the Mapuche identity. They spoke Mapudungun, a unique language that remains central to their culture today. Unlike the Quechua language of the Andes, which spread widely due to the influence of the Inca Empire, Mapudungun remained relatively isolated, preserving its distinct linguistic structure. Oral tradition was the primary means of passing down knowledge, with elders recounting stories, myths, and historical events that shaped the collective memory of the Mapuche people.
