In chapter two it discusses the vastness of the lands and how their land had 12 rivers and many small ones that only our ancestors could navigate. The dry riverbeds of Britain have been documented by Robert John Langdon and base on his findings he has filled the dry riverbeds on maps today to show us piece of what Aldland looked like (Ref 2). We also know that the 4.2ka bp event happened around this time (Ref 3). Plato almost 2 thousand years later describes the location of Aldland as being pass the straits of Gibraltar. In his tale of ancient history he says an island existed just outside the straits. after 2000 years some of the details would have been lost. Especially if those details were relied upon oral tradition. If you think about how the sailors would travel for trade to get to Lyda’s land from Doggerland you would find they would have to go through the straits of Gibraltar. Over time the entry way into the straits could have been mistaken for the location of Aldland.
“This power came forth out of the Atlantic Ocean, for in those days the Atlantic was navigable; and there was an island situated in front of the straits which are by you called the Pillars of Heracles;” Plato’s Timaeus
What triggered the event that destroyed Aldland?
Evidence exist that the earth was hit with a series of meteors at that time (Ref 4-7). These meteor strikes happened across the globe all at once. These strikes caused massive earthquakes that lasted for a period of 3 years. In Aldland it seems that they were spared any meteor strikes or they would have wrote about it. They do mention how the sun was hidden behind the clouds. This could have been debris that was kicked up from the strikes. The earthquakes soon started after that.
