I agonized over this one forever. At one point when you are going around
the inner ring of Atlantis (before the lava walk), you will see a picture
on the wall of the three rings, depicted with a sun, moon and volcano I
believe. Use that pattern with the spindle and stones.

"Some men never listen, some men never learn;
But why this man did as he did, only he will ever know;
He knew he was walking into a waiting trap;
Neatly set up for him, with a bait so richly wrapped;
So he went inside there to take on what he found;
But he never escaped them, for who can escape what he desires?"

You just have to align the
stones in the correct way. If you do not understand the meaning in Plato's
book, just try to turn them to open the entry. Each time you begin the
game the combination is different so you have to find it yourself. There
is not so many combinations of positionning the stones so you may just
experience. First, you find the combination (there will be a "click" as I
remember), and then you put the orichalcum in the mouse of the big frog.
I've stopped playing "Indy..." a while ago, but as I remember it
was the way I got through the door.
