Greetings,

My first try at commenting.

I just got on to look up info in Wikipedia regarding the Biblical peoples of "Tyrus". So as not to take up too much time and space, I will simply comment that Scriptural studies, especially in prophecy, gives much evidence of Tyrus/the Phoenecians are descended from Javan (Japan), a son of Japheth. It was Javan, with two of his sons, that settled in that area sometime in the c.16-15th centuries BC. They were well settled and "in the seafaring" business, when Israel' settled Palestine in Joshua's day.

I won't take more time. But, it is almost a certainty that Atlantis was the homeland of Javan and his sons (and perhaps grandsons). And, Greek writers make assertions that the Atlaneteans were "oriental". Note in Zech.9:3 where it says of Tyrus(Javan). "She did build herself a strong hold [on Atlantis], and heaped up silver as the dust, and fine gold as the mire ofd the streeets!" Then think of the more modern day search for the "city of gold". With that in mind, consider also that Atlantis was above the Atlantics surface until the mid 700's BC, when the great "earthquakes in king Uzziah's day" cause it and many other ocean "land masses", such as Lemuria and the Caribbean to sink also.

This is enough.
