About Mu–Lemuria — Cubagua Pearl Bank Pseudo Second Terrace (Venezuela Coast)

Mu/Lemuria Cubagua pearl-bank terrace pseudo places Churchward's Mu Lemuria continent off Cubagua Island pearl banks at 10.8N, where Spanish Nueva Cádiz (1500–1543 first Spanish town in Americas) pearl fishery and Araya salt collapsed due to pearl overfishing, hurricane 1543 and Tiwanaku-derived Mu fantasy. Cubagua bank reef flat at –3 m shows natural oolitic shoal terraced by storm, claimed as Mu Lemurian 'Tablet terrace' with pearl-mother tablet. No tablet provenance, NY Mu slabs are basalt misread. Debunked by L. Sprague and Moreno 1948 archeology found Nueva Cádiz Spanish foundations, not Mu. Treated pseudoarchaeology second Mu terrace variant distinct from Pacific Mu.

Why it mattersOnly Caribbean Mu variant — shows how Churchward's Pacific Mu was opportunistically moved to Pearl Coast after Atlantic Atlantis occupied by Bimini; Cubagua serves as economic-history control (pearl collapse, not cataclysm).
