Year 2,012 minus 3,660 years takes us back to 1,648 B.C. when geologists say there occurred the great volcanic explosion of the Santorini caldera, whose drifting ash cloud was described in Chapter 9 of the Book of EXODUS of The Holy Bible. This volcanic explosion was just one of many global catastrophes which were recorded contemporaneously in ancient Egyptian and Chinese annals, as well as passed down through Mayan, Mexican, and Aztec legends (i.e. by different civilizations all around the World).
Year 1,648 B.C. minus 3,660 years takes us back to 5,308 B.C. when, according to geologists Pitman and Ryan, the Great Flood of Noah's day destroyed the World. These geologists base their dating of the Flood upon stark geological evidence involving the Black Sea.
Year 5,308 B.C. minus 3,660 years takes us back to 8,968 B.C. when, along with ancient historians, geologists following the school of velikovskyan evidence of global geological catastrophism -- as opposed to the now-discredited school of geological gradualism -- report that the great globally catastrophic Sinking of Atlantis occurred.

ANDREW COLLINS: [Excerpt]
" `The Gods of Eden' is more of the same, but also included in that was the origins of Egyptian civilization, suggesting that its roots went all the way back to 9000 B.C. That was in 1998. Then in 2000 was the first publication of `Gateway to Atlantis,' relating to the origins of Plato’s Atlantis, seeing it as being in the area of the Bahamas and the Carribean, with its flagship being Cuba. There were many similarities between Plato’s description of the central city, the central island and
Cuba, and showing that the sunken area of it was in fact within the Great Bahama and Little Bahama Bank, and that this area had suffered some kind of cataclysm, almost certainly originating somewhere in space, relating to most probably a fragmenting comet, which caused devastation of land along the eastern United States and also within the waters of the
western Atlantic. "
