104a. Reading the Pictures of the Apocalypse: Part I. Lecture III 08 May 1907, Munich
Translated by James H. Hindes

Rudolf Steiner
We are now living in the age of cultural epochs. Atlantis was the age in which seven great races developed one after another. Of course, the fruits of this race development extend into our epoch, and for this reason races are still spoken of today, but they are really mixtures and are quite unlike those distinct races of the Atlantean epoch.
224. The Festivals and Their Meaning III : Ascension and Pentecost: The Whisun Mystery and its Connection with the Ascension 07 May 1923, Dornach
Translated by Dorothy S. Osmond, Alan P. Shepherd

Rudolf Steiner
Earth-evolution proper really begins with the fourth epoch, that of Atlantis. We are living now in the fifth epoch, which will be followed by the sixth and the seventh. The mid-point of Earth-evolution falls in the middle of the Atlantean epoch, and so in our present age the Earth has already passed the mid-point of its development.
84. The Spiritual Development of Man: Man's Faculty of Cognition in the Etheric World 22 Apr 1923, Dornach
Translator Unknown

Rudolf Steiner
For instance, he admits that there once existed a continent between Europe and America called ‘Atlantis,’ inhabited by the ancient Atlanteans, a prehistoric humanity. Then he asks the hypothetical question—I am not quoting verbatim—how is it possible that today, when we have a proper physiology and a proper psychology, anyone could conceive the idea of dividing man's being in such a way!
89. Awareness—Life—Form: Theosophical Cosmology I 26 May 1904, Berlin
Translated by Anna R. Meuss

Rudolf Steiner
In the series of essays ‘Aus der Akasha-Chronik’ (later Cosmic Memory. Atlantis and Lemuria, GA 11), we read: ‘... that the inspirations of the great teacher mentioned in Esoteric Buddhism [by Sinnett] do not contradict what I am presenting here, but that the misunderstanding only arose because the author of that work translated the wisdom of those inspirations, which is difficult to put in words, into the human language of today, doing so in his own way.’
113. The East in the Light of the West: Evolutionary Stages: Saturn, Sun, Moon, Earth 26 Aug 1909, Munich
Translated by Dorothy S. Osmond, Shirley M. K. Gandell

Rudolf Steiner
This is an approximate and broad sketch of evolution from the so-called Lemurian epoch on into that of Atlantis. It was during the Atlantean epoch that, very slowly and gradually, the Earth began to wear an appearance more or less similar to that which we see around us today.
122. Genesis (1982): The Work of Elementary Beings on Human Organs 23 Aug 1910, Munich
Translated by Dorothy Lenn, Owen Barfield

Rudolf Steiner
Many of these articles were subsequently published in English in book form as Atlantis and Lemuria (Anthroposophical Publishing Co., 1923).
123. The Gospel of St. Matthew (1946): Jesus ben Pandira and Initiation among the Essenes 05 Sep 1910, Bern
Translator Unknown

Rudolf Steiner
Abraham having been selected for his great mission, the Spirit that had been recognized in early Atlantis as the Spirit who moved and lived in all the surrounding world had to enter into his inner organism.
125. Vital Questions in the Light of Reincarnation and Karma 26 Nov 1910, Bremen

Rudolf Steiner
If we go back still further—back through the post-Atlantean cultures, back to old Atlantis, and still further back—we come to an incarnation in which we came down into a physical body for the first time.
97. The Christian Mystery (2000): The Yoga Path, Christian Gnostic Initiation and Esoteric Rosicrucianism 30 Nov 1906, Cologne
Translated by Anna R. Meuss

Rudolf Steiner
It is the sign of Cancer in the zodiac. When ancient Atlantis had perished and the post-Atlantean period began, with the ancient Indian race, the sun rose in the sign of Cancer at the beginning of spring.
