'Io numa te ni sona se nak Atala ni fenes
se le ni botan tuko e dashi verda'
NGu
These 2 lines you see on top where found on a cavewall close to the ancient city 'NGu' and where written by the people of Atala (Atalans/Atalanians*). Roughly translated they mean the following: 'One day we will return and this white island will rise and it will flourish like a green rock' (emerald? - author).
What happened to the Atalans and why did they stay in a cave? We all know their city NGu was one of the most prosperous ones on Atala so what where they doing in a cave... So many questions are still unanswered. Ofourse we are investigating what we can but Atala has sunk deep under the waters of the ocean and it is hard for us to go down there. It is costing us a great deal of time, frustration and not to forget, money. No human can dive that deep so we are using equipment that can, unfortunately it is pretty expensive.
For now I just wanted to share this with you, it was too exciting to keep to myself any longer. The weather is getting better and if our team can find the resources to go back out there we might find more.You can click on the following link to read what we do know about Atala and the city NGu, it will lead you to a 'hidden' page here on Atala.
*Thus far we do not know exactly how they called themselves. I will refer to them as 'Atalans'
