The Land of Egypt's Ancestors
Peter Tyson (NOVA)
The female Pharaoh Hatshepsut told us more about Punt ("Poont") than anyone else in ancient times. But even she was silent on its exact location. The ancient Egyptians left mountains of evidence for Punt, none more so than Pharoah Hatshepsut, whose 3,500-year-old temple at Deir el-Bahri near Thebes contains a book in stone describing Punt. She and other pharaohs sent huge expeditions to Punt -- flotillas of robust, seagoing ships with thousands of men. But neither she nor anyone else from ancient times left a map, directions, or distances. More

Coast to Coast, July 5, 2012
Researcher of ancient mysteries Frank Joseph Hoff discussed the unusual work of Brazilian professor and nuclear physicist Arysio Santos on the true location of Atlantis. He also gave an update on his plans for an excavation in Indonesia. Dr. Robin Harger, Ray Pillai , and Saunthara Subramaniam joined the conversation.
Referring to such sources as ancient Hindu texts and the writings of Plato and his contemporaries, Prof. Santos was able to "reverse engineer" the location of Atlantis -- a submerged subcontinent in Southeast Asia, where the Indian Ocean, South China Sea, and the Pacific Ocean all come together, Hoff asserts, adding that Indonesia is part of this land mass still visible today (as pictured on the cover of Santos' book).
