Atlantis Not a Myth Claims By Toronto Professor
A Milwaukee Journal summary reports Sir Daniel Wilson, president of the University of Toronto, argues Atlantis was actually America. Donnelly’s idea of a submerged landmass caused by a volcanic upheaval is rejected. Wilson ties ancient Egyptian traces to Central American ruins and the legendary Atlantis would gain interest for antiquarians. Queen Victoria is described as vigorous in daily drives at twelve miles per hour, unlike typical elders, while an English scientist notes high insect species diversity and Scotland’s banking density contrasts with England.
