subject: Will Anyone Please Give Us The Exact Location Of Atlantis [print this page] A lost island that is the Atlantis empire has been speculated upon in numerous books and films. It is hard to tell where it is or what it was.
Definitely this is true It was in 360 BC when the Greek philosopher by the name of Plato mentioned Atlantis I two of his dialogues namely Timaeus and Critias, and ever since professional researchers and amateur sleuths have been hooked.
For one Internet bookstore, 438 titles on it are available. It was Disney that released Atlantis The Lost Empire which was a full feature film.
There were a number of scholars who believed in the existence of the island of Atlantis, which beheld the light of the sun and brought about a fair abundance, and they said that Plato could not have made the entire thing up.
Why can't we be sure if Plato was making Atlantis up or if he was quoting historians about a real place? Plato wrote about Atlantis but never got to reveal if it was fact or fiction as he died some years later.
Plato got Atlantis from Solon, a historian who really existed. Skeptics think it's possible Solon made the whole thing up, and Plato believed in a fable.
It has been said that Plato's intellect could not have had room to provide for a highly detailed description of the island of Atlantis wherein a series of rings make up the empire with the royal palace in the center and dug out canals lead to the cities not to mention having surroundings of statues and intricate bath houses.
For Plato the demise of Atlantis occurred in 9000 BC but there is much doubt to this claim for such a place, advanced enough to be able to make nuclear bombs not to mention a number of flying machines, could have existed for more than this determined time.
Then there is the question of where Atlantis is located exactly. A volcano destroyed its suspected location on the island of Thira in 1470 BC.
Probably the Azores in the Atlantic off of the coast of Spain could be another possible Atlantis location. Most of the time when underwater ruins are discovered, they are usually attributed to Atlantis. The European explorers even made use of Atlantis laden maps when they sailed around the world.
From the skin of elephants came about impressive flying machines that they used for explorations. One more location for Atlantis was off of the coast of modern day Bimini.
When the island kingdom was destroyed, not all its people died. Egypt became the new settlement for these survivors and it has been said that they shared their knowledge here. One secret chamber in the Great Sphinx is where traces of Atlantis are stored.
In 4000 BC, Antarctic was covered with ice. Nothing but underground explosions and seismic upheavals were experienced beforehand. Most of these were capable of destroying entire civilizations. From an author came the information that Atlantis was an island in the Atlantic ocean and this discovery came from his research attempts as he was writing about it.
The reason for its absence is a nuclear explosion in the past. They had their own line of nuclear weapons like we do today. A civil war happened in Atlantis and they blew themselves up with a nuclear explosion.
