 | | Antillia, which is the same name, if not the same island that the Cartaginians so zealously tried to keep secret, was regarded by the Hispanic peoples as the ideal place of refuge during the conquest of Spain by the Arabs. |
 | | On ancient maps (Antillia) is generally located in the center of the Atlantic Ocean. |
 | | In this aspect, the Portuguese name Antilha (ante ilha), seems logical, which signifies “the island opposite,” “before” or “in front of,” because it refers to the great island in the middle of the ocean, the one having “seven cities.” This could be the real reason for its name, or just another form of writing Atlantis. |
