I find this article fascinating as well Elaine. I can't look away until all the evidence is in which I may never live to see. I've read about science people quibbing and even murdering over things since the dawn of time. Prove this, prove that. So I'll be curious to see what comes of this. I know this seems idiotic, but at no time can I buy it that no humans prior to the 1500's ever inhabited any of the Azores. As the article claims, it's a puzzle. A puzzle is something to be solved. Historically people seemed to want to move in a westerly fashion, so I would think, or at least hope, seafaring peoples stumbled upon the beautiful islands. Even the ancient Egyptians had giant barges they sailed on, and Romans as well who stretched their conquering arms all the way to England in the first century. No one ever ran into an Azorean island and stayed? That's a head-scratcher. And I have no clue how the islands shuffled around for thousands of years with the continental drift. I suppose someone must have done testing on the recovered artifacts to determine age, either radiocarbon 14, or potassium-argon or uranium-lead or fire up the mass spectrometry accelerator and get some geotimelines going. There are answers to this puzzle. I'm going to go look some stuff up on this to see what I can find. And yet, In the dark recesses of my dreams, it gives me great joy to think that the Azorean islands could be vestigages of the possible lore of Atlantis. Anything is possible. CindyD
