Or some other, previously undiscovered civilization, that either was wiped
off the face of the earth by some disaster.  I always drag my heels at using
Atlantis for a creative effort, given it's been used time and again for so
many things that it's hard to take it seriously anymore. :)
        Alternate Earth would probably give you the greatest options in
terms of poetic license....you wouldn't have to make up anything you didn't
want to, but if you want something that doesn't exist or make sense in our
world, you can do so easily...extinct animals that aren't, etc.  The return
of the Dodo Bird!
