Lemuria
The ancient submerged continent
The name lemuria comes from the Lemur fossils found in a South
African region and in Southern India by an English zoologist named P. L. Sclater
who noticed a strange similarity between them. Sclater advanced a hypothesis
about the existence of Lemuria, a continent which occupied the area of today's
Indian ocean. Besides, the German biologist Ernst Haeckel insisted
hypothetically that Lemuria might be the Eden.
