Lemuria is a legendary "lost continent" that exists somewhere in the southern hemisphere of the Pacific Ocean, possibly near the South Pole. Some sources also position in near the Indian Ocean. It has been theorized that Lemuria was once a land bridge, connecting several continents together, including areas surrounding Australia and the southern tips of Asia. If Lemuria actually did exist, it would have been part of the Pangaea suprecontinent. The continental crust that shaped Lemuria sank beneath the sea untold millennia ago, possibly as a result of polar shift. Popular fiction would have one believe that Lemuria once boasted a thriving ancient culture in the years leading up to whatever cataclysm caused it to sink under the waves.

Notes & Trivia[]
- Lemuria has also been spelled as "Limuria", which redirects to this page.
- The name Lemuria is taken from Lemur, which is a type of monkey, whose fossil remains have been discovered in both India and Madagascar, leading zoologist Philip Sclater to theorize that the two land masses were once connected.
