Appendix 2: Letter to Rand Flem-Ath from Charles H. Hapgood, 16 October 1982
1. Flem-Ath, Rand, ‘A Global Model for the Origins of Agriculture’, The Anthropological Journal of Canada, Vol. 19, No. 4, 1981, reprinted in 1995 as an appendix in When the Sky Fell.
2. Rand noted (following the work of Vavilov) in the above paper that the earliest experiments with agriculture seem to correspond with land that is 1,500 metres above ocean level.
3. Charles knows from Rand and Rose’s first letter to him in April 1977 that they believe that Atlantis was Antarctica before the last displacement.
4. Charles is referring to Rand’s article. Rand knows and believes that agriculture began in Atlantis (Antarctica) many thousand of years earlier but he cannot say this in his article and expect to be published in a scientific journal.
5. The whereabouts of this manuscript is a mystery. Rand and Colin have communicated with Hapgood’s relatives and friends and have been unable to locate this important unpublished manuscript.
6. Rand and Colin both disagree with Hapgood on this point (see When the Sky Fell and From Atlantis to the Sphinx).
7. Rand had written about the correlation between altitude (1,500 metres above ocean level) and agricultural origins: ‘This might be explained by crustal displacement, which would surely result in fantastic tidal waves. Any survivors would have a strong motive for staying in high mountains.’ Charles took this to mean that Rand was advocating the notion of 1,500-metre-high tidal waves but what Rand meant was that any tidal waves would have the consequence of making the survivors afraid to live near the ocean.
8. Rand and Rose developed this idea in When the Sky Fell (pp. 49–51), calling this longitude (83 degrees west and 97 degrees east) the ‘line of greatest displacement’.
9. Langway, C. C., Jr. and Lyle Hansen, ‘Drilling through the Ice Cap: Probing Climate for a Thousand Centuries’, in Richard Lewis and P. M. Smith, The Frozen Future: A Prophetic Report from Antarctica, Quadrangle Books, New York, 1973. Rand, who now has little faith in the ice core dating method, included this book in his list of references because it contained the words ‘from Antarctica’. It was his own joke on the scientific journal that was publishing his article. Rand wanted to include the idea of Atlantis but knew that any mention of the A’ word would doom any chances of getting published. The next best thing would be to get in the words ‘from Antarctica’. Charles’s remarks here are a sort of wink: ‘I know why you included that reference.’
