Trivia / The Pusadian Series

• Science Marches On: Ironically enough, De Camp sought to create a more scientifically plausible version of the Hyborian Age, by abandoning the catastrophist geological theories that were already disproven in the 1950s and using the theory of geological gradualism instead, by arguing that Pusad was sinking into the ocean little by little over the course of many centuries. However, the currently accepted theory of plate tectonics made the geological basis for this as obsolete as Howard’s, making it impossible for a continent to have ever existed in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean.
