Ati. A former Papago rancheria, vis- 

 ited by Kino about 1697-99, and the seat 

 of a mission established about that date; 

 situated on the w. bank of Rio Altar, be- 

 tween Uquitoa and Tubutama, just s. of 

 the Arizona boundary. Pop. 56 in 1730. 

 The mission was evidently abandoned 

 within the following 40 years, as Garces 

 (Diary, 1775-76, 455, 1900) speaks of Ati 

 as a favorable site for one. Not to be 

 confounded with San Francisco Ati.

Atka (native name of the largest of the 

 Andreanof ids., called Atchu by Coxe, 

 Atchka by Cook in 1778, and by various 

 writers Atchgi, Atchka, and Alcha, ac- 

 cording to Baker, Geog. Diet. Alaska, 

 1901). One of the two dialectic divisions 

 of the Aleut, occupying Andreanof, Rat, 

 andNearids. (Holmberg, Ethnol. Skizz., 

 1855). The Atka are great hunters of 

 the sea otter, and the furs they sold dur- 

 ing the Russian occupancy made them 



wealthy. About half of them learned to 

 read and write their own language, of 

 which Russian missionaries made a gram- 

 mar. With Christianity and civilization 

 the Russians introduced alcohol, for 

 which the natives developed an inordi- 

 nate craving, making their own liquor, 

 after the importation of spirits was for- 

 bidden, by fermenting sugar and flour. 

 Their diet of fish and occasional water- 

 fowl is supplemented by bread, tea, and 

 other imported articles that have become 

 indispensable. The native dress, consist- 

 ing of a long tight-sleeved coat of fur or 

 bird skins, overlapping boots that reached 

 above the knee, has been generally dis- 

 carded for European clothing, though 

 they still wear in wet weather a water- 

 proof shirt of intestines obtained from 

 the sea-lion. All are now Christianized, 

 and nearly all live in houses furnished 

 with ordinary things of civilization. —

Atlantis. The theory of the lost island 

 of Atlantis can be traced back to the 

 Tinipeus of Plato. It was mentioned by 

 many subsequent ancient historians, some 

 of whom considered it a myth while 

 others believed it to be true. The dis- 

 covery of America revived interest in the 

 subject, and by many theorists the con- 

 tinent itself was believed to be the lost 

 island, while others, as the Abbe Brasseur 

 de Bourbourg (Quatre Lettres sur le 

 Mexique, 1868; Manuscrit Troano, i, 

 1869) held that Atlantis was the exten- 

 sion of America which stretched from 

 Central America and Mexico far into the 

 Atlantic, the Canaries, Madeiras, and 

 Azores being the only remnants which 

 were not submerged. Rafinesque ( Ameri- 

 can Nations, 1836) devotes a chapter to 

 the subject of the Atlantes. He finds 

 three routes by which the ancient nations 

 of the Eastern and Western hemispheres 

 could communicate, namely, the north- 

 ern, tropical, and southern paths, "with- 

 out taking into account the probable con- 

 nection of North America with Asia and
