A map that rings through the ages, from The Children of Mu by James Churchward. Churchward claimed that ancient Mayans traveled across the world after Mu's destruction to settle on this island before it too submerged. His lost Ceylon ties into Lemuria and contemporary Sri Lankan nationalism.

Not just Sri Lankan nationalism, it makes an appearance in Geoffrey Jenkins novel 'Hunter-Killer' which I suspect started off as a failed script for 'You Only Live Twice', that one has a RN nuclear submarine passing through the sunken ruins of Lemuria at one point in the storyline.
