HYPERBOREA, HYPERBOREANS AND ATLANTIS

Up in the Greek mythological north we find Hyperborea, ‘the Land Beyond the North Wind’, inhabited by the Hyperboreans - a blessed race who spent their long lives singing, dancing and sacrificing to Apollo, who spent his winters with them. They occasionally appear in theories concerning Atlantis, and this link gives some good information about the land and its inhabitants.
