The Atlantis Gene Pierce Roberts

There was a place once where man, the perfect creation, lived and thrived as a near perfect creature. Blessed by the 'gods' with advanced knowledge of science, engineering, astronomy, mathematics and medicine, this early culture lived an idyllic life on a remote volcanic island in the eastern Atlantic . There they enjoyed centuries long lives and were protected by their isolation from pestilence and were nourished by food raised on rich volcanic soil. These Atlanteans became great seafaring explorers who shared their gifts of knowledge with more primitive cultures, advancing societies that would evolve into the great centers of knowledge, philosophy and science that would become Egypt, Rome, Persia, Greece and China. Legend has it that the island they called Atlantis was destroyed in a sudden cataclysmic volcanic explosion that totally exterminated all traces of that great culture. The truth be known, the eruption and explosion that wiped the island from history came slowly with seismic warnings and the people evacuated their leaders and knowledge on a great armada of ships which dispersed around the world to settle and mix with other cultures, creating advanced healthier societies. One group traveled West to a previously unexplored continent that one day would be called North America. There for hundreds of years they inbred with native tribes of hunter gatherers which then evolved into the great American Indian tribes . Modern researchers, aware of Biblical stories about patriarchal longevity that spanned multiple centuries to millennia, began researching modern pockets of extreme centurion longevity, seek a possible genetic reason, a longevity gene to create a super human . One group of Chinese scientists begin to pursue that knowledge with malevolent, evil intent. The accidental discovery of a ten thousand year old grave with fossilized human remains, a partial stone tablet with indecipherable writing, and a heavy gold and emerald inscribed ring with an ancient message on the Fort Peck Indian Reservation in Montana, sets in motion events that will uncover the powerful secrets of The Atlantis Gene.
