Thoth the Atlantean


Children of Light who dwelt among us. Strong were we with the power drawn from the eternal fire. And of all these, greatest among the children of men was my father, Thoth, keeper of the great temple, link between the Children of Light who dwelt within the temple and the races of men who inhabited the ten islands.”
Although late writings depict Thoth as a god, the earliest texts depict him as a king (The Palermo Stone versus The Coffin Texts; Faulkner, 1974).  Thoth was born in a distant country to the west which was across a body of water.  In Chapter LXXXV of the Book of the Dead (Papyrus of Nu), Thoth rules the "Western Domain," and by the end of the New Kingdom he is called "Lord of the West" (Seth, 1912). He is said to be the inventor of writing, astronomy, mathematics and civilization in general (Budge, 1960). Thoth is often called the Scribe.

A catastrophe occurred in the distant country of the gods to the west, but Thoth led them across the sea to an eastern country (Egypt).  Thus it appears that Thoth was once the ruler of an Island Kingdom beyond the western horizon before the Egyptian priests turned him into a god.  Nu, the Egyptian god of the Primeval Sea, is represented on the marble sarcophagus of Seti I as being up to his waist in water with arms upraised to carry the Solar Boat across the Sky. 

The boat, with its ten royal occupants, is being carried above the flood  waters engulfing their mountainous island home in the West.  It would appear that this scene depicts the final migration from the Lands of the West, Urani Land (Ireland) to Egypt because of the sudden loss of Atlantis.
