(with ocr & detailed bookmarks for text & illustrations)***Mu, a legendary continent that disappeared in the ocean waves ages ago, stretched, according to Churchward, "from somewhere north of Hawaii to the south to Fiji and the Easter Islands". Mu was the site of the Garden of Eden and home to 64,000,000 people - known as the Naacals. Its civilisation was very advanced and the ancient civilisations of India, Babylon, Persia, Egypt and the Mayans were merely the decayed remains of its colonies. Churchward writes here about his research into this ancient culture, its inhabitants and its influence on the rest of the world.At the time of Mu’s destruction her people were in an exceedingly high state of civilization; as regards science she was far ahead of the present time.(No wonder! She was at the end of two hundred thousand years of experience and development. We today cannot claim five hundred.)The great civilizations of the old Oriental empires — India, Egypt, Babylonia, etc.—were only the dying embers of Mu’s great civilization. They were her children, who withered and died without her care.
