OGYGIA THE LOST CONTINENT
Ogygia is a name given to what was called Calypso's Isle in archaic mythology. This island has long been associated with Atlantis.
When Columbus was in search of lands to the west, he had knowledge of stories of Ogygia. Maps of Ogygia appeared in Europe in medieval times. The island was conceived as being located in the Atlantic Ocean.
