Lemuria (Pacific Ocean)

Overview

Lemuria is one of the oldest surviving civilizations.^[2]

Lemuria was apparently the only continent where modern man dwelt half a million years ago.^[15]

During the Pre-Cataclysmic Age (from about 100,000 until the Great Cataclysm),^[16] Lemuria remained one of the great continents of its era, and was ruled mostly by the Deviants and their human slaves.^[1]

After the Great Cataclysm, Lemuria was partly retrofitted by the Deviants, while other parts later became the home of the underwater race known as the Lemurians. Lemuria was founded by a splinter group of Homo mermanus^[1] who made their way to the Pacific Ocean whereas Atlantis had been in the Atlantic.^[17]
