Mystery religions, mystery cults, sacred mysteries or simply mysteries, were religious schools of the ancient world for which participation was reserved to initiates, which offered individuals spiritual experiences and esoteric insights not provided by the official public religions.
When people talk about Atlantis, they are usually referring to the writings of Plato, the Athenian philosopher who lived during the Classical period in Ancient Greece. According to the ancient Egyptian priests of Sais via Plato, massive cataclysms ended a powerful civilization 11,500 years ago, which incidentally is the same date anthropologists recognize as the end of the Pleistocene and start of our current Holocene age.
Global sea levels were 400 feet lower during the late Pleistocene, or Ice Age, when Atlantis was said to have existed in the Atlantic Ocean. The glaciers melted in several spurts, with a major cataclysm taking place around 9500 BC, the date given by Plato for the destruction of Atlantis, which perfectly matches the geological record. [This period, approximately 11,500 years ago, is also when a growing number of scientists believe a large asteroid or comet impacted on the ice sheet in North America, which could have been the cause of the catastrophe recorded in legend as the destruction of Atlantis . . .
