There is a theory that the Greek island of Santorini was part of Atlantis. You might think how can an island in the Mediterranean have anything to do with the continent in Atlantic Ocean? According to belief East Coast Atlantis reached the shores of Spain and Africa, and the west coast extended to the Caribbean and the Yucatan Peninsula. The Bermuda Triangle and the Sargasso Sea were also parts of Atlantis. Several islands adjoined the continent, one of which was Santorin, in much the same way as Catalina is adjacent to the coast of California (only Santorin was further from Atlantis than Catalina was from the coast of California).

Plato's two dialogues "Timaeus" and "Critias" are the only written sources of that time that speak of Atlantis. . This dialogue is written in the form of a conversation between Socrates, Hermocrates, Timaeus and Critias, in which Timaeus and Critias tell Socrates about the social structures known to them. This conversation may confirm that the Greek island of Santorini was part of Atlantis.

The dialogue tells of a conflict between the Atlanteans and the Athenians, which took place some 9,000 years before Plato's time. It is clear that no records remain from those days, especially about Atlantis. Some fragments of the works of Aristotle have been preserved, but the full text of the works of this great master has not survived to this day.

Many of the works of that time were destroyed during the fire in the Library of Alexandria, but even they provided limited information, because much of the information was transmitted by oral tradition. (It is refreshing that we have full confidence in the Bible in that it relies on pre-literate oral tradition, but when it comes to

Atlantis or Lemuria, skeptic scientists immediately appear ...)

The continent of Atlantis appeared about 500,000 years ago, its civilization reached its peak about 15-12 thousand years ago. Unlike Lemuria, whose culture contributed to the development of spirituality, Atlantis was a continent of sciences, arts and technology. And if Lemuria was destroyed as a result of the natural processes of mother nature, the intellectual Atlanteans themselves destroyed their home as a result of experiments in the field of atomic energy and nuclear physics.

As a result of such experiments with electromagnetic energy, the continent disappeared under water, and most of the citizens of Atlantis died - only a few managed to escape, who landed in Spain, Egypt and the Yucatan. The Atlanteans seem to have lacked the understanding that they are polluting the atmosphere with their industry; if we, modern people, treat the globe in the same way, we can fall into the same trap. Absolute power, indeed, absolutely corrupts.

Atlantis: facts and evidence

1. Pyramid explored by Dr. Ray Brown on the sea floor near Bahamas in 1970. Brown was accompanied by four divers, who also discovered houses, domes, rectangular structures, metal tools of indeterminate use, and a statue holding a crystal with a miniature copy of the pyramid. Metal tools and crystals were brought to the surface and taken to Florida for further analysis. It has been found that the crystal increases the energy passed through it.
2. The remains of roads and buildings on Binini Island were discovered and photographed in the 60s by the expedition of Dr. Manson Valentine. Similar underwater ruins have been photographed on a coral reef in the Bahamas. Similar remains of structures were discovered and photographed in Morocco at a depth of 15-18 meters under water.
3. A huge pyramid with 11 rooms and a large crystal on top was, according to Tony Bank, discovered at a depth of 3000 meters under water in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean.
4. In 1977, the Ari Marshal expedition reported that a huge pyramid was found and photographed near Sey Reef in the Bahamas at a depth of about 45 meters. This pyramid is approximately 195 meters high. Life-giving, but around the pyramid the water was bright white, it flowed from the hole in the pyramid, then the water was green, in contrast to the usual dark water at a depth.
5. The flooded city, about 640 kilometers off the coast of Portugal, was found by a Soviet expedition led by Boris Asturua, the buildings in it were made of hard concrete and plastic. He said: "The remains of the streets suggest that monorail trains were used for transportation." A statue was raised from the bottom of the sea.
6. Heinrich Schliemann, the man who discovered and excavated the ruins of the famous Troy (historians considered it a legend), according to his contemporaries, handed over to scientists a vase from an unknown metal extracted during the excavation of the treasures of Priam. A seal in the Phoenician language was found in it, according to which this vase was a gift from the king of Atlantis, Kronos. A similar vase was found in Tiahuanaco, Bolivia.

There are supposed to be more facts, but you already get the point. Obviously, numerous studies indicate the presence of ancient civilizations about which we know nothing.

The Atlanteans experienced three cataclysms throughout their history: the first about 50,000 years ago, the second about 25,000 years ago, and the third, which destroyed their civilization, about 12,000 years ago. Some Atlanteans considered these misfortunes to be warnings that to continue this way of life meant to destroy their civilization. Unfortunately, these "doomsday heralds" were in the minority, and therefore no one heard them.

“The story of how the various continents were inhabited by this highly developed civilization is amazing, but after many years of its development, it ended its existence approximately 11,500 years ago as a result of a terrible planetary catastrophe that changed the face of the Earth and hid most of the land under water. The key to the history of the world before the rise of our civilization is to be found in the Sumerian texts.”

Many people think that what happened to the Atlanteans is much like what I once said on television: the change in axial tilt affected some of the masses of the Earth, and this led to the separation of the continents. Atlantis and Lemuria sank lower, and as a result of this, a significant part of the land was under water.

The Atlanteans experimented with electromagnetic energy and gravity, which became the main cause of destruction. Usually the reversal of the poles is accompanied by small earthquakes, volcanic explosions and movements of the earth masses, but this time it was the largest in the entire history of the Earth (which explains the emergence of the story of Noah and the Flood). Much of this story of "flooding the whole earth with water" can also be found in the Sumerian texts.

Humanity's knowledge of its history is bound by time and space. We are locked in the present and have no way to go back even a minute ago, let alone hundreds and thousands of years. Scientists are trying to reconstruct the picture of the past using indirect data: from the study of geological rocks, from the results of archaeological excavations, according to information glorified by people of distant eras. The credibility of the information remains a big question.

The point here is not at all in the malicious intent of scientists or a global political conspiracy. It's just that time is merciless to the monuments of the past: material and intangible.
Eyewitness accounts are full of inaccuracies, emotional distortions, exaggerations, sincere delusions. Artifacts that have come down to us are often so damaged that even the most experienced experts just shrug: it is impossible to reliably determine either the time of the creation of the artifact, or the chemical composition of the material from which it was created.
The historical picture of the world created by scientists is largely conditional. It is based on hypotheses that are recognized by the world scientific community as the most plausible. However, who can guarantee that this plausibility is not an illusion?
To recreate a more or less complete history of mankind, you need to find absolutely all the books, buildings, household items, in a word, everything that can tell us about the life of people of the distant past. Moreover, archaeological excavations should be carried out throughout our planet. Indeed, it would be a grand undertaking.
Among different peoples, one can find a myth about an unknown person speaking an incomprehensible language, who taught them various crafts. In the myths of the Old World, the stranger comes from the West, and in the myths of the New World, from the East. It is possible that these were the surviving Atlanteans.
But, alas, archaeological activity of this magnitude is impossible. At least for now. Firstly, over hundreds and thousands of years, many artifacts simply disappeared due to natural physical and chemical processes. And secondly, most of the Earth's surface is simply inaccessible for a full-fledged archaeological study.
Thousands of years ago, the globe would have looked different, and we would not have recognized our Earth, deciding that we see a model of some other planet. What was once dry land is now hidden under many kilometers of the World Ocean.
What hides its depths? Science is silent on this.
Is it possible to assume that somewhere in the ocean lie the remains of a civilization much more advanced and ancient than all known to us today?

Are you saying it's impossible? So you have explored every centimeter of the ocean floor, cleaned and checked every underwater rock, every coral, looked into every geological layer across the entire surface of the planet ...
And if not, you not only do not have the right to assert with confidence that the existence of an ancient civilization is impossible.
The world's oceans are full of secrets. It is there, under the water column, that one of the most famous, powerful and mysterious civilizations of the past can be hiding - the civilization of the Atlanteans, which once flourished in Atlantis.
Atlantis is a legendary land, a haven for the descendants of the ancient gods, the cradle of a civilization that has reached imaginable and unimaginable heights of development and fell in just one day.
Atlantis is sometimes called an island, sometimes an archipelago, sometimes a continent. Its exact location is unknown, so the land of the Atlanteans is "placed" in the Atlantic Ocean, and in the Mediterranean Sea, and in South America, and in Africa, and in Scandinavia. The legendary Atlantis "travels" around the world. The time of its existence and death remains unclear. The causes of the fall of the mighty civilization of the Atlanteans are much disputed.
A whole scientific (or near-scientific) direction is engaged in the study of Atlantis - atlantology. It took shape in 1959, and the Soviet chemist Nikolai Fedorovich Zhirov became its creator. The merit of atlantologists is that they are trying to find a rational grain in the numerous myths about Atlantis, to apply a scientific approach.
Today "orthodox" science does not recognize the right to exist for Atlantis. Atlantis is officially considered a myth, fiction, literary and philosophical fantasy. To seriously engage in the civilization of the Atlanteans means to abandon the reputation of a "serious scientist." There are also less plausible, but very curious.

Atlantic Ocean

It is quite logical that in the first place they are looking for Atlantis where Plato indicated - in the Atlantic Ocean. The Egyptian priests, retelling the history of the Athenian-Atlantean wars, mentioned that the Atlantean army "led its way from the Atlantic Sea." According to the priests, Atlantis was located opposite the Pillars of Hercules. In ancient times, the Strait of Gibraltar and the rocks of Gibraltar and Ceuta located in it were called so.
Atlantis, therefore, was located across the Strait of Gibraltar, near the coast of Spain and modern Morocco. The Greeks believed that the territory now belonging to Morocco is the country of the Far West, that is, the edge of the world, where the titan Atlant (Atlas) lives, holding the Earth on his shoulders. Presumably, the names of the ocean, the Atlas ridge and the islands of Atlantis go back to the name of this titan. Plato named Atlantis the firstborn of Poseidon and Cleito and said that the legendary island is named after him. Perhaps, initially the name "Atlantis" meant something like "a country lying in the extreme West", "the country of the titan Atlanta".

According to the Egyptian priests, Atlantis was an island larger than the combined area of ​​Libya and Asia. From it, on other islands, it was possible to cross over to the "opposite mainland" (most likely to America).
Proponents of this hypothesis believe that traces of the sunken Atlantis must be sought at the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean or near the islands located at the indicated coordinates. Atlantologists suggest that several thousand years ago these islands were the mountain peaks of Atlantis. There is enough free space in the modern Atlantic Ocean to accommodate an island the size of Atlantis.
It was this hypothesis that was always defended by the founder of cynology N. F. Zhurov.
Many atlantologists placed Atlantis in the region of the Kshears and Canary Islands.
Vyacheslav Kudryavtsev, an employee of the famous Vokrug Sveta magazine, agreed that the sunken island was located in the Atlantic Ocean, but believed that Atlantis should be sought somewhat closer to the north pole - in the place of modern Ireland and Britain.
The reason for the death of Atlantis, according to Kudryavtsev, was the melting of glaciers during the ice age, which ended just about 10,000 years ago.

The Bermuda Triangle: An Atlantean Legacy?

The mystery of Atlantis is often associated with another no less famous mystery of the Atlantic Ocean - the formidable and deadly Bermuda Triangle. This anomalous zone is located near the oi southeast coast of the United States. The "tops" of the "triangle" lie on the islands of Bermuda, Miami (Florida) and San Juan (Puerto Rico). In the area of ​​the Bermuda Triangle, more than one hundred ships and aircraft disappeared without a trace. People who were lucky enough to return from the mysterious triangle with kivim talk about strange visions, about fog appearing from nowhere, about gaps in time.
What is the Bermuda Triangle? Some atlantologists are inclined to believe that involuntary (or
free?) the Atlanteans became the culprits for the appearance of this anomalous region.
The famous American clairvoyant Edward Casey (1877-1945) in his visions observed pictures of the life of the Atlanteans. Casey said that the Atlanteans had special energy crystals that they used "for worldly and spiritual purposes."

Before the inner eye of Casey, there was a hall in the temple of Poseidon, called the Hall of Light. Here was kept the main crystal of the Atlanteans - Tuaoi, or "Fire Stone". The cylindrical crystal absorbed solar energy and accumulated it in its center.
The first crystal was a gift presented to the Atlanteans by representatives of alien civilizations. The aliens warned that the crystal contains a huge destructive power, so it must be handled with extreme care.
Crystals were the most powerful energy generators. They accumulated the radiation of the Sun and stars and accumulated the energy of the Earth. The rays emanating from the crystals could burn through the thickest wall.
It was thanks to the crystals that the Atlanteans erected their grandiose palaces and temples. Alien stones also helped develop the psychic abilities of the inhabitants of Atlantis.
Separate confirmation of Casey's words can be found in the myths and traditions of different peoples.
For example, Julius Caesar in his "Notes on the Gallic War" cited the story of a druid priest that the ancestors of the Gauls came to Europe from the "Island of the Crystal Towers". They talked about the fact that somewhere in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean rises a glass palace. If any ship dared to get too close to it, it disappeared forever. The reason for this was the unknown forces emanating from the magical palace. In the Celtic sagas (and the Gauls are representatives of one of the Celtic tribes), the destructive power of the Crystal Tower is called the "magic web."
One of the heroes of the sagas turned out to be a prisoner of the House of Glass, but managed to escape from there and return home. It seemed to the hero that he spent only three days in the palace, but it turned out that in fact thirty years had passed. Today we would call this phenomenon a distortion of the space-time continuum.
In 1675, the Swedish atlantologist Olaus Rudbeck stated that Atlantis was located in Sweden, and the city of Uppsala was its capital. Rudbeck argued that his correctness should be obvious to anyone who has ever read the Bible.

According to some legends, part of the Atlanteans managed to escape death when their homeland fell into fashion. They moved to Tibet. The local peoples have preserved legends about huge pyramids, on top of which rock crystals shone, which, like antennas, attracted the energy of the Cosmos.
Edgar Cayce has repeatedly warned of the dangers posed by the Bermuda Triangle. The clairvoyant was sure: at the bottom of the ocean, a pyramid crowned with an alien crystal rests - a powerful energy complex of the Atlanteans. Crystals still operate today, causing distortions of space and time, forcing objects passing by to disappear, having a detrimental effect on the psyche of people.
Casey named the exact location of the power plant: on the ocean floor east of Andros Island at a depth of 1500 m.
In 1970, Dr. Ray Brown, a big fan of underground swimming, went to rest on the island of Bari near the Bahamas. During one of the underwater excursions, he discovered a mysterious pyramid at the bottom. On top of it, fixed by unknown mechanisms, rested a crystal. Despite his apprehension, Dr. Brown took the stone. For 5 years he hid his discovery and only in 1975 he decided to demonstrate it at the congress of psychiatrists in the USA. Congresswoman Elizabeth Bacon, a New York psychologist, claimed to have received a message from the crystal. The stone reported that it belongs to the Egyptian god Thoth.
Later, there were reports in the press that high-energy crystals were found at the bottom of the Sargasso Sea, the origin of which was unknown. The power of these crystals allegedly made people and ships disappear into nowhere.
In 1991, an American hydrological vessel discovered a giant pyramid at the bottom of the Bermuda Triangle, even larger than the pyramid of Cheops.
According to echograms, the mysterious object was made of a smooth material similar to glass or polished ceramic. The edges of the pyramid were perfectly even!

Studies of the Bermuda Triangle and the mysterious objects resting on its bottom have not yet been completed. There is no exact information, reliable facts, reliable material evidence. There are far more questions than answers.
Maybe anomalous forces are really to blame for the disappearance of ships in the Bermuda Triangle. Maybe there, in the dark ocean depths, stands a lone pyramid. Abandoned and forgotten by everyone, it continues to do what it was created for - to generate powerful flows of energy for the benefit of people, not suspecting that its owners, the Atlanteans, have been resting there for several millennia, in the dark waters of the oceans. And the people who now dominate the surface curse the mysterious and destructive force coming from nowhere.
Mediterranean Sea: Minoan Civilization
The legend of Atlantis is a story about a once powerful and highly developed civilization that died or fell into decay as a result of a terrible natural disaster. Perhaps Atlantis as described by Plato never existed. The Greek philosopher created this myth based on real historical events, which he creatively rethought. In this case, both the area of ​​Atlantis and the time of its existence are all just artistic exaggerations. The prototype of Atlantis was the Minoan civilization on the island of Crete (2600-1450 BC).
The hypothesis about the Mediterranean origin of Atlantis was expressed in 1854 by the Russian statesman, scientist, traveler and writer Avraam Sergeevich Norov.
In his book A Study of Atlantis, he cites the words of the Roman writer Pliny the Elder (23 AD-79 AD) that Cyprus and Syria were once one. However, after the earthquake, Cyprus broke away and became an island. This information is supported by the Arab geographer Ibn Yakut, who told how the sea once rose and flooded vast inhabited territories, and the catastrophe even reached Greece and Syria.
Norov makes some adjustments to the translation of Plato's dialogues and to the interpretation of geographical terms. The scientist draws attention to the fact that the word “pelagos” and not “oceanos” is used in the text, that is, it does not mean the Atlantic Ocean, but some kind of Atlantic Sea. Norov suggests that this is how the ancient Egyptian priests called the Mediterranean Sea.
In ancient times, there were no unified names for geographical objects. If Plato's contemporaries called the Pillars of Hercules Gibraltar, then the Egyptians and the Proto-Athenes could call any strait like that, for example, the Messianic Strait, Kerch Strait, the Strait of Bonifacio, Cape Malea in the Peloponnese and the island of Kitira, the islands of Kitira and Andikitira, the Canary Islands, the walls of the temple near the Gulf of Gabes, the Nile Delta. The mountains named after Atlas were located in Europe, Asia, and Africa. Norov himself was inclined to believe that the Bosporus was meant by the Pillars of Hercules.
This hypothesis also has a purely logical justification. In the treatise Timaeus, Plato describes the catastrophe that led to the death of the armies of the Athenians and Atlanteans in this way: earth; likewise, Atlantis disappeared, plunging into the abyss. Judging by this description, the Athenian army was not far from Atlantis at the time of the catastrophe. Athens is located at a decent distance from the shores of the Atlantic Ocean. To get to Gibraltar, the Athenians, who, as we remember, were betrayed by all allies, would have had to single-handedly conquer all the lands from Tirrenia to Egypt from the Atlanteans, defeat the mighty fleet of Atlantis and sail to the shores of the legendary island. For a myth that idealizes the ancestors of the Athenians, such a situation is quite acceptable. However, in reality, this was hardly possible.
It is more logical to assume that the Greek army did not go too far from their native shores, and, therefore, Atlantis was located somewhere near Greece, most likely in the Mediterranean Sea.
In this case, a natural disaster could cover both Atlantis and the nearby Athenian army.
In the texts of Plato, one can find a number of other facts confirming the Mediterranean hypothesis.
The philosopher, for example, describes the consequences of a devastating natural disaster: “After that, the sea in those places has become unnavigable and inaccessible to this day due to the shallowing caused by the huge amount of silt that the settled island left behind.” Silty shallow waters do not fit in at all with the Atlantic Ocean, but in the Mediterranean Sea such a change in the bottom topography looks quite plausible.
Even the famous French explorer Jacques-Yves Cousteau made his contribution to atlantology. He explored the bottom mediterranean sea in search of traces of the Minoan civilization. Thanks to Cousteau, a lot of new information about the lost civilization was obtained.
Nature, the relief of the island, minerals, metals, hot springs, the color of stones (white, black and red) as a result of volcanic and post-volcanic processes - all this corresponds to the conditions of the Mediterranean coast.

In 1897, the doctor of mineralogy and geognosy, Alexander Nikolaevich Karnozhitsky, published an article “Atlantis”, where he suggested that Atlantis was located between Asia Minor, Syria, Libya and Hellas, near the main western mouth of the Nile (“Pillars of Hercules”).
Shortly thereafter, the British archaeologist Arthur John Evans discovered the remains of the ancient Minoan civilization on the island of Crete. In March 1900, during the excavations of the city of Knossos, the capital of Crete, the legendary Labyrinth of King Minos was found, in which, according to myths, the half-man, half-bull Minotaur lived. The area of ​​the palace of Minos was 16,000 m2.
In 1909, The Times newspaper published an anonymous article entitled "The Lost Continent", which, as it turned out later, was written by the English scientist J. Frost. The note expressed the idea that the Minoan state is the lost Atlantis. Frost's opinion was supported by the Englishman E. Bailey ("Sea Lords of Crete"), the Scottish archaeologist Duncan Mackenzie, the American geographer E. S. Balch, and the literary critic A. Rivo. Not everyone supported the idea of ​​the Minoan Atlantis. In particular, the Russian and Soviet zoologist and geographer Lev Semenovich Berg believed that the Minoans were just the heirs of the Atlanteans, and the legendary island itself sank in the Aegean Sea.
Of course, the Minoan civilization did not die 9500 years ago (from the time of Plato's life), the territory of the Minoan state was much more modest than that of Atlantis described by Plato, and it was located not in the Atlantic Ocean, but in the Mediterranean Sea. However, if we agree that these inconsistencies are the result of artistic processing of real historical data, then the hypothesis becomes quite plausible. The main argument is the circumstances of the death of the Minoan civilization. About 3000 years ago, on the island of Strongila (modern Thira, or Santorini), an unheard-of eruption of the Santorin volcano occurred (according to some estimates - 7 out of 8 points on the scale of volcanic eruptions). Volcanic activity was accompanied by earthquakes, which led to the formation of a giant tsunami that covered the northern coast of Crete. For a short time, only memories remained of the former power of the Minoan civilization.
The history of the Athenian-Atlantean wars, outlined by Plato, is reminiscent of the clashes between the Achaeans and the Minoans. The Minoan state conducted active maritime trade with many countries and at the same time did not disdain to trade in piracy. This led to periodic military clashes with the population of mainland Greece. The Achaeans did indeed defeat my opponents, but not before the natural cataclysm, but after it.

Black Sea

In 1996, American geologists William Ryan and Walter Pitman put forward the theory of the Black Sea flood, according to which around 5600 BC. e. there was a catastrophic rise in the level of the Black Sea. During the year, the water level rose by 60 m (according to other estimates - from 10 to 80 m and even up to 140 m).
After examining the bottom of the Black Sea, scientists came to the conclusion that this sea was originally freshwater. Approximately 7,500 years ago, as a result of some natural disaster, ocean sea water poured into the Black Sea basin. Many lands were flooded, and the peoples who inhabited them, fleeing the flood, moved deep into the continent. Along with them, both Europe and Asia could come with various cultural and technological innovations.
The catastrophic rise in the level of the Black Sea could serve as the basis for numerous legends about the Flood (for example, the biblical legend about Noah's ark).
Atlantologists, on the other hand, saw in the theory of Ryan and Pitman another confirmation of the existence of Atlantis and a hint where to look for the coveted island.

Andes

In 1553, the Spanish priest, geographer, historian Pedro Cieza de Leon, in his book Chronicle of Peru, first cited the legends of the Indians of South America that the truth, the dating of events in this case diverges from that proposed by Plato. But this is only at first glance. A witty solution to this contradiction was proposed by a Russian specialist in the field of computer systems, network information technologies and computer modeling Alexander Yakovlevich Anoprienko. He suggested that, speaking of 9000 years (the time of the death of Atlantis), 1 Plato did not mean the usual years for us, but seasons of 121 - 122 days. This means that the legendary civilization has sunk into oblivion 9000 seasons 121-122 days ago, that is, approximately in the 4th millennium BC. e. during the period of Indo-European expansion.

Atlantis - Antarctica

In the book of the British writer and journalist Graham Hancock "Traces of the Gods", a hypothesis is put forward that Antarctica is the lost Atlantis. Based on numerous ancient maps and artifacts of unknown origin found in Antarctica, Hancock puts forward the version that Atlantis was once located closer to the equator and was a flowering, green land. However, as a result of the movement of lithospheric plates, it moved to the South Pole and now stands, bound by ice. Unfortunately, this curious hypothesis contradicts modern scientific ideas about the geological movement of the continents.

HOW ATLANTIS DIE

Not only the location of Atlantis, but also the reasons for its death cause a lot of controversy.
True, the atlantologists were not so inventive in this matter. Attention deserves 3 main hypotheses of the death of Atlantis.
Earthquake and tsunami
This is the main, "canonical" version of the death of the Atlantean civilization. Modern concepts of the block structure of the earth's crust and the movement of lithospheric plates state that the strongest earthquakes occur just at the boundary of these plates. The main shock lasts only a few seconds, but its echo, an earthquake, can last up to several hours. It turns out that Plato's story is not at all fantastic: a strong earthquake could really destroy a huge land area in just one day.
Science also knows cases when an earthquake caused a sharp subsidence of the earth. For example, in Japan, a 10-meter subsidence was noted, and in 1692 the pirate city of Port Royal (Jamaica) went under water by 15 m, as a result of which a significant part of Gnala Island was flooded. The earthquake that led to the death of Atlantis could have been several times stronger. It is likely that it sank a huge island or archipelago to the bottom of the ocean. Until now, the Azores, Iceland and the Aegean Sea in Greece remain areas of increased seismic activity. Who knows what violent tectonic processes took place in these areas several thousand years ago.
An earthquake goes hand in hand with a tsunami - gigantic waves reaching several tens and even hundreds of meters in height and moving at great speed, sweeping away everything in its path. (beginning the sea retreats a few meters, its level drops sharply. And then several waves run one after another, one higher than the other. In a few hours, a tsunami can destroy an entire island. Such cases are also recorded by seismologists.
Even if Atlantis managed to survive the earthquake, it was "finished off" by a giant tsunami, overthrowing the legendary island into the abyss of water.

All these data confirm that the Tulean land stretched between the northern part of the Atlantic and the Arctic Ocean. It may have been cut through by the mid-ocean ridge in the Iceland region.
The Soviet expedition aboard the Akademik Kurchatov, led by oceanographer and geomorphologist Gleb Borisovich Udintsev, explored bottom sediments around Iceland. Flogs of continental origin were found in the samples.
Summing up the results of the expedition, Udintsev stated: “It can be argued that the land of quite extensive size really once existed in the North Atlantic. It may have connected the shores of Europe and Greenland. Gradually, the land was breaking up not blocks. Some of them slowly and gradually descended, turning into the ocean floor. The immersion of others was accompanied by earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, tsunamis. And now, "in memory" of the old days, only Iceland remains for us ... "
However, scientists failed to put an end to the study of Hyperborea on this. Comparative geochemical analysis of the earth's crust of Iceland, on the one hand, and Kamchatka with the Kuriles, on the other hand, showed a fundamental difference in their chemical composition. The food of Iceland was predominantly basaltic, i.e., oceanic, and the crust of Kamchatka and Kuril Islands- granite, mainland. It turned out that Iceland is not a surviving part of Hyperborea, but only the top of the median ridge blows.
Meanwhile, the Arctic Ocean got scientists new surprises. Studies have shown that soups also once existed in the polar zones, and, unlike Hyperborea, it went under water relatively recently, several millennia ago, which means that humanity has already found this mysterious continent. Scientists have suggested that this is the lunch box Arctida.

Modern researchers have not yet been able to fully reveal all the hidden secrets of the existence of Atlantis. However, thanks to the many studies carried out in this area, there are still a number of assumptions and hypotheses regarding the existence of the described ancient civilization.

Official science, of course, does not recognize the existence of this mysterious - perhaps really only mythical - civilization in the past.

The achievements of the Atlantean civilization are impressive.

There is an opinion among scientists that the Atlanteans have reached a very high level of progress in all spheres of life. They could plan their life in completely different ways. For example, it was not alien to the people who once inhabited this sunken continent, telepathic communication with family and friends. They also liked to have long conversations about their role in the universe.

According to the Theosophists, the Atlanteans were the fourth race on earth. They appeared after the death of the Lemurian civilization, having absorbed some of its achievements, and existed before the appearance of the fifth, Aryan race. The Atlanteans were much more god-like than the Lemurians. Beautiful, smart and ambitious.

They worshiped the sun and developed their technology rapidly, just as we do today.

Description of Atlantis by Plato

In the year 421 BC, Plato spoke in his writings about the vanished civilization of the Atlanteans.

According to him, it was a large island, located in the middle of the ocean, beyond Gibraltar. In the center of the city there was a hill with temples and the palace of the kings. The upper city was protected by two mounds of earth and three water ring canals. The outer ring was connected by a 500-meter canal to the sea. Ships sailed along the canal.

Copper and silver were mined in Atlantis. Sailing ships delivered ceramic dishes, spices, and rare ores.

The temple of Poseidon, the lord of the seas, was built of gold, silver, orchilak (an alloy of copper and zinc). His second temple was protected by a golden wall. There were also statues of Poseidon and his daughters.

After forty years, after the death of the philosopher, the Athenian resident Krantor went to Egypt to find Atlantis. In the temple of Neith, he found hieroglyphs with texts about the events that had taken place.

Scientific and technological progress in Atlantis

Due to their high level of mental and mental development, the inhabitants of Atlantis managed to establish contact with extraterrestrial beings. Some researchers give information that the Atlanteans were able to create ultra-fast and practical aircraft. Their very deep knowledge in the field of physics, mathematics and mechanics made it possible to produce equipment of the highest quality with unusual properties. And it was these devices that easily helped them travel through space!

The progress in technology was so stunning that today mankind has not yet been able to develop analogues to those flying devices, even taking into account the fact that science is constantly striding by leaps and bounds forward in all spheres of life without exception.

All this suggests that the inhabitants of Atlantis were outstanding people, possessed of great intellect and knowledge. At the same time, the Atlanteans willingly shared the acquired skills and experience with the younger generation. Therefore, progress in technical development was gradually improved and reached unprecedented heights.

The first pyramids were built just on the territory of Atlantis. This unusual phenomenon still causes bewilderment among researchers, due to what improvised means and equipment it was possible to build such unusual structures!

Also economically, their country was prosperous. The work of any person in it was paid at its true worth. According to legend, Atlantis was an ideal country, there were no beggars and rich people who boasted of their wealth.

In this regard, the social situation in this country was always stable, no one was worried about food.

The appearance and morality of the Atlanteans

Due to the fact that the body of the Atlantean had remarkable physical strength compared to modern man, they could do much more work than our contemporaries.

The body of the Atlanteans was staggering in size. According to the evidence, it reached 6 meters in height. Their shoulders were very wide, the torso was elongated. There were 6 fingers on the hands, and 7 on the feet!

The facial features of people who once lived on Atlantis are also unusual. Their lips were very wide, their nose had a slightly flattened shape, while they also had huge expressive eyes.

According to their physiological data, the average life span of an average Atlantean was about 1000 years. At the same time, each of them tried to look beautiful in the eyes of others. Often, a variety of jewelry made of silver or gold, as well as precious stones, were used as decorations.

The Atlanteans were highly moral people. Therefore, they were alien to bad habits and an immoral way of everyday life. In any situation, they tried to act honestly with others, no one tried to deceive and set anyone up. In family relationships, marriage once in a lifetime was the norm. And the relationship itself was built solely on mutual trust, support and love for each other.

The political system in Atlantis was built in a democratic field. In many ways, it is similar to the one that prevails in the modern successful states of Europe with freedom of speech and the right to choose. The ruler of the Atlanteans was chosen by voting. At the same time, he ruled for a very long period - from 200 to 400 years! But whoever rules Atlantis, each of its leaders has always sought to create such a social environment within the state, thanks to which any person could always feel protected and cared for.

Causes of the death of Atlantis

One of the assumptions why Atlantis disappeared is based on the fact that the kings and the population of this continent began to abuse knowledge, with the help of which they carried out their aggressive intentions.

For example, the pyramids they built created portals to other worlds. All this contributed to the fact that the energy coming from the parallel reality could be negative and at a certain moment could adversely affect the entire continent, completely destroying it in an instant.

In their daily lives, magic has increasingly been used exclusively with malicious intent.

Too much knowledge creates a temptation to use it for selfish interests. And no matter how morally pure the inhabitants of Atlantis were at first, in the end, negative tendencies began to grow in their society over time. The predatory attitude towards nature, the growth of social inequality, the abuse of power by the small elite that ruled the Atlanteans ultimately led to tragic consequences associated with the incitement of a long-term war. And it was she who became the main reason that one day the entire continent was swallowed up by the waters of the ocean.

Some scientists also assert with certainty that the death of Atlantis occurred approximately 10-15 thousand years ago. And this large-scale event provoked a huge meteorite that fell on our planet. The fall of a meteorite could change the earth's axis, which caused a tsunami of an unprecedented scale.

What did Helena Blavatsky say about the causes of the death of Atlantis

According to Helena Blavatsky, the fall of Atlantis happened because the Atlanteans played God. It turns out that from high morality the Atlanteans rolled down to indulgence of passions.

The technology of the Atlanteans, which surpassed their spiritual qualities, allowed them to create chimeras - a cross between man and animals, to use them as sex slaves and physical workers. Atlanta on high level mastered genetic modification and cloning technology. This is similar to what people are doing now, in the 21st century.

Being telepathically warned that the continent would sink, many of the inhabitants of Atlantis fled, having managed to board ships before the final sinking of the mainland in 9564 BC. by a series of earthquakes.

The American mystic Edgar Cayce, who looked into the so-called astral akashic records in a trance state, claimed that many of the souls who once lived in Atlantis now live as representatives of modern Western civilization in order to fulfill their destiny.

The search for a lost civilization

Over the past two thousand years, there have been multiple speculations about the location of Atlantis. Interpreters of the works of Plato pointed to the modern islands of the Atlantic. Some argue that Atlantis was located in present-day Brazil and even in Siberia.

Modern archaeologists consider the thinker's story about the Atlanteans a fiction. Circular networks of canals, hydraulic structures in those days were still beyond the strength of mankind. Researchers of Plato's philosophy and literature believe that he wanted to call for the creation of an ideal state. As for the period of disappearance, Plato names information that this happened eleven and a half thousand years ago. But during this period, man was only emerging from the Paleolithic, the Stone Age. Those people were not yet sufficiently developed mind. Perhaps these data of Plato about the time of the death of Atlantis are incorrectly interpreted.

There is one assumption why the figure of the death of Atlantis by Plato appears 9 thousand years ago. The fact is that in Egyptian reckoning "nine thousand" was depicted by nine lotus flowers, and "nine hundred" - by nine knots of rope. Outwardly, in writing, they were similar, and therefore there was confusion.

Modern research

In one thousand nine hundred and seventy-nine, all European newspapers were full of headlines "The Russians found an island." Photographs were presented in which vertical ridges, similar to walls, peeked out of the sand. Search operations unfolded exactly where Plato indicated - behind the Pillars of Hercules, above the underwater volcano Ampere. It was reliably established that it stood out from the water, was an island.

In 1982, another Russian ship, having sank under water, discovered the ruins of the city: walls, squares, rooms. These findings were refuted by another expedition, which found nothing. In addition to frozen volcanic rocks.

There are suggestions that the disaster occurred due to a sudden shift in the African tectonic plate. Its collision with the European caused the eruption of Santorin - and the western islands sank.

Of course, it is now impossible to say with accuracy what exactly happened once to Atlantis and what contributed to its death. And many of the hypotheses set forth by the researchers can only come close to the truth.

Whether Atlantis was simply a figment of the imagination of Plato and other thinkers, or a reality reflected in ancient legends, miraculously preserved to this day, remains a mystery ...

Perhaps our civilization is moving towards the same finale, when we will become for our distant descendants the same mythical event that Atlantis is for us. And our continents will also unsuccessfully search for days of deep oceans.

Questions about whether Atlantis existed, about the location of Plato's sunken Atlantis, however, like all the secrets of Atlantis, torment the minds of many generations of seekers. Some researchers have not decided whether it was a large island or a small mainland. Many atlantologists are trying to find evidence of the existence of the island, other representatives of modern science believe that the "city" of Atlantis was located in the west. While still others believe that Hyperborea disappeared along with the disappeared Atlantis.

The first acquaintance with the continent lost more than 10,000 years ago is connected with Plato's dialogues Timaeus and Critias. This work of Plato allows some scholars to claim that they have found and identified the area of ​​the sunken island, and know where Atlantis sank.

Places on Earth where archaeologists have searched for the ancient sunken Atlantis

It is known about at least five points on Earth where the search for Atlantis was conducted:

• Baltic;
• Eastern Mediterranean;
• Spain;
• Great Britain;
• Bermuda Triangle.

What did archaeologists find in these places?

Secrets of Swedish Atlantis

Swedish archaeologists managed to find at the bottom Baltic Sea ancient artifacts dating back to the Stone Age. Apparently, nomads could stop near the place where they were discovered about eleven thousand years ago. The press immediately dubbed this discovery, important for science, the "Swedish Atlantis".

Atlantis of the Eastern Mediterranean

In 2004, the American scientist Robert Sarmast thought he had unraveled the mysteries of Atlantis. He announced the location of the lost city between Syria and Cyprus at a depth of one and a half kilometers. The expedition, which he led, managed to find man-made buildings at the bottom, as well as channels and riverbeds. The scientist claimed that all this coincided with the outline of Plato's Atlantis.

History of Spanish Atlantis

In 2011, already Spanish scientists voiced a version of the location of Atlantis. They believed that the ancient city was washed away by the tsunami off the Spanish coast. Local scientists claimed that at the bottom lies a complex of buildings that also corresponded to Plato's descriptions. With the help of instruments, it was possible to fix the concentration of methane, which in turn may indicate the death of many people.

History of British Atlantis

British scientists did not have to lag behind their colleagues. So, in 2012, they announced the discovery of Atlantis off their coast. The hypothesis was reported that the "British Atlantis" had to go under water about nine thousand years ago. According to this hypothesis, it was a piece of land that stretched between Denmark and Scotland. In the center, this land was the size of modern France, and this whole part of the land was almost 900 thousand square kilometers.

Atlantis Bermuda Triangle

Canadian researchers near the eastern coast of Cuba using a special robot in 2012 photographed some underwater ruins. In the photo, one could see the remains of buildings similar to pyramids, a figure resembling a sphinx, as well as engraved huge slabs. However, later archaeologists considered that this drowned city was not part of Atlantis. It turned out that it was built up to two thousand years ago. Whereas, according to the instructions of Plato, the island of Atlantis plunged into the depths of the sea around 9500 BC.

What did Plato write about Atlantis?

Having found the right places in the text of Plato's dialogues, you can read what he wrote about the civilization of Atlantis, which existed thousands of years ago. The island where it originated was larger than Libya and Asia combined. There arose a great and marvelous association of kings. All their power extended over the island, to many other islands, and also to part of the continent. Moreover, on this side of the strait they were masters of Libya as far as Egypt, and also of Europe as far as Tirrenia.

Some researchers have mentioned Solon, who wrote down the story of the death of Atlantis. He visited the Egyptian city of Sais around 611 BC. There, from the local priests, he learned that a terrible catastrophe had occurred, which occurred nine thousand years BC. e. Then there was a flooding of a huge island, exceeding in size "Libya with Asia."

Scientists, after the necessary calculations, placed an island of such volumes near Gibraltar. They decided that by now only a few islands could remain from this huge island, such as Cape Verde, the Canaries, Madeira, the Azores and others. Thus the vast archipelago was, in fact, the Platonic civilization of Atlantis.

Secret maps of Christopher Columbus

Some believe that Atlantis in ancient times meant the Canaries, and supplements this with the fact that Columbus had accurate navigation charts with the Atlantic ridge in all his four campaigns.

By the way, he was also looking for the remains of the islands of the once-existing empire. Later, some of those maps that were at the disposal of the great commander were captured by the Turks in one of the naval battles, so that they ended up at Piri Reis.

In the maps of Piri Reis that have come down to us, there were no details necessary for scientists. There were no images of the sunken mainland. Nevertheless, this did not prevent us from determining the location of Atlantis; the routes of the Columbus caravels of all four expeditions were known. It should be noted that all four expeditions of Columbus always started from the Canaries.

Mystery of ocean currents

In the last two expeditions, Columbus decided to take advantage of the current that carried his ships in the right direction. Navigators in those days could hardly have been aware of the secret of such a current. However, this secret was well known to Columbus himself, which means that he could find it in secret sources that could come to him along with maps of the disappeared continent.

Nowadays, these ocean currents have received little attention, since the modern fleet is adapted to perform autonomous navigation to any extent. This made the secrets of the currents, which in ancient times ensured the regularity of communications between parts of the world, irrelevant. However, unequivocal evidence can be found in ancient maps that these messages existed.

However, according to some researchers, after the global cosmic cataclysm in 1528 BC. communication between the continents was interrupted. And only because of Christopher Columbus everything returned to normal. The great Genoese possessed cards unknown to science and, indulging in them, made his great discoveries.

Fall of the great Posidonia

According to the ancient philosophers and writers, all its citizens were warned that Atlantis would perish. However, after nothing happened for several years, people continued to "sin" further.

The collapse of the great empire of Atlas began with the appearance of huge cracks, where the rivers rushed. Death went on throughout the state for three days, mountains collapsed and fell into valleys, rivers rushed into the ocean. On the fourth day, such a downpour fell, as if the abyss of heaven had opened up, the terrible roar of thunder did not stop.

Suddenly there was a shudder of the earth, after which part of the land began its dive into the crazy streams. Everything that was on land began to sink lower and lower under the water.

Then everything went silent. No rain, no crushing blows of wind, no downward movement - everything stopped, as if so that the survivors could rest. For several days nothing happened. It seemed to the exhausted people who hid in insignificant shelters that everything was over.

If you have any questions - leave them in the comments below the article. We or our visitors will be happy to answer them.

Of all the legendary realms, it is the most popular, although it has never been found. Its fame is quite understandable: Europeans consider themselves the heirs of ancient culture, which was the successor to the more ancient civilizations of Egypt and Crete, and those, in turn, the Atlantean empires. Yes, and the evidence of a historical person, the ancient Greek philosopher Plato, although transmitted by the Egyptian priests through Solon, seems more authoritative than the myths of the peoples of the Indian and Pacific Oceans, about Lemuria and Mu.
A wide variety of writings and documentaries have been made about Atlantis, speculating about the island's location and culture. But no one exactly named the place where you need to look for the lost city. Some investigators say that he is in the waters of Santarini, others in the waters of Bimini. According to the scientist Plato, the island was located in front of the Pillars of Hercules, in our time it is the Strait of Gibraltar, which separates the two states of Spain and Africa.

In 2011 in Spain, in national park Donada, where there are many swamps, were found, memorial cities that looked like the constructions of the sunken Atlantis.

Thus, scientists decided that this is one of the Far Eastern parts of Atlantis. Since the city found in the swamps is located near the village of Cadiz, it used to be called Hades.

In the chronicles there are mentions of this city in 1100 BC, in some myths the mention of the city is found in earlier years.

Also, the scripture says that the sunken memorial city belonged to one of the princes of the Atlanteans, the son of Poseidon.

To his first son Atlas, he gave part of the island, which was named after him Atlantis, and coastal waters were also named.

The "not being found" of Atlantis, perhaps, has its own explanation: in the fact that they do not want to recognize it as a reality, preferring to see it as a utopian ideal state invented by Plato. Here is the testament of the famous archaeologist Heinrich Schliemann, who discovered Troy, which until then was considered to exist only in the poetic imagination of Homer. Heinrich, dying in Naples in 1890, handed over to friends an old vase along with a letter in which the following was written: “It is allowed to open it to one of the family members who swears that he will devote his life to the search mentioned here.” An hour before his death, he made a note: “You must break the vase with the head of an owl, consider its contents. It concerns Atlantis. Lead excavations in the eastern part of the temple in Sais and in the cemetery of Shakkuna. It is important. Find evidence to support my theory. The night is coming, goodbye."

The son of Henry, named after the Greek king Agamemnon, did not dare to open the vase and devote his life to the search for Atlantis. This was done by his son, the grandson of Heinrich Schliemann - Paul, Doctor of Historical Sciences. With a feeling of deep regret, he broke an ancient vase, finding archaeological antiquities there, about which his grandfather wrote: “I came to the conclusion that Atlantis was not only a large continent between America and the western coast of Africa and Europe, but also the cradle of our entire culture...

During excavations in 1873 at the ruins of Troy in Hissarlik... I found an unusual looking bronze vase. It contained small gold items, coins and objects made of fossilized bones. On some of them, as well as on a bronze vase, there was an inscription made in Egyptian hieroglyphs: "From King Chronos of Atlantis."

Fulfilling Heinrich's will, Paul Schliemann followed in his footsteps to Egypt and began excavations in the Sais ruins. At first he was unlucky, but soon he received from one of the natives a collection of old coins found in the tomb of a priest from the First Dynasty. Paul writes about this as follows: “Who could describe my amazement when I recognized two coins in this collection, almost no different from the coin in the Trojan vase! Isn't that a success? Thus, I had a coin from a Trojan vase, which, if my grandfather was right, came from Atlantis, as well as two other similar coins from the sarcophagus of a priest of the Sais temple, which contained information about Atlantis, transmitted by the priests to Solon.

Later, the researcher discovered the same coins found in Central America, in Mexico, which, judging by many testimonies, was once one of the colonies of the Atlantic empire.

These and other material finds testified that Atlantis was by no means fiction, but scientists considered them ... an invention of Paul Schliemann! He himself was shot by the British, like a German, and his collection was lost, like many other things that had sunk into oblivion during the Second World War.

Another piece of evidence belongs to the English traveler Fossett and refers to a mysterious figurine, whose origins could not be explained by the leading experts of the British Museum. The traveler turned to a psychometrist or, as we would now say, a psychic. He left rather clear descriptions of his visions caused by contact with the figurine: “I see a large, irregularly shaped continent stretching from the northern coast of Africa to South America. Numerous mountains rise on its surface and volcanoes are visible in places, as if ready for an eruption. Vegetation is abundant, subtropical or tropical in character.

It is unlikely that the psychic was familiar with the work of Plato "Timaeus", which tells: "It was possible to cross this (Atlantic) sea in those days, because there was still an island lying in front of that strait, which is called in your language the Pillars of Hercules (modern Gibraltar) . This island exceeded in its size Libya and Asia combined, and from it it was easy for travelers of that time to move to other islands, and from the islands to the entire opposite mainland (America) ... On this island, called Atlantis, there arose a great and remarkable union of kings...

And further, already in Critias, Plato writes about the nature of Atlantis: “The forest in abundance delivered everything that the builders needed for work, as well as for feeding wild and domestic animals. There were even a great many elephants on the island ... Further, all the incense that the earth now feeds ... - she gave birth to all this and nurtured it perfectly.

The Russian visionary writer Daniil Andreev wrote about Atlantis in The Rose of the World: “Atlantis was located on an archipelago of islands, the largest and most important of which resembled Sicily in size. It was inhabited by the red race... Of the cultures well known to us, Atlantis would be closest to Egypt and partly to the Aztecs, but gloomier and heavier... The main island and the small ones surrounding it died from a series of seismic disasters. Small groups of residents escaped in America, one - in Africa, where it disappeared into the Negroid population of Sudan.

Interesting views about the Atlanteans are expounded by the mystic Eduard Schure in “Divine Evolution”: “... From a physiological point of view, the primitive Atlas was closer to the animal than to modern man ... But, on the other hand, he occupied a higher level in some psychological capabilities, atrophied in subsequent generations: instinctive perception of the soul of things, second sight in the state of wakefulness and sleep, and with it an amazing sharpness of feelings, a wonderful memory and impulsive will ... He was endowed with some kind of natural magic ... He commanded nature with his eyes and voice ... He charmed snakes , conquered predators. Its impact on the plant kingdom was particularly vigorous. He knew how to get the magnetic living force of plants ... "

Atlantis was discovered more than once, but they did not want to recognize it! In 1898, while laying a telegraph cable from Europe to North America near the Azores, rocks were discovered covered with a vitreous mass, which can form only during the eruption of an above-ground, but not an underwater volcano. In 1917, near the island of Bimini, rectangular structures were found at the bottom, which were examined in 1968 by Dr. Manson Valentine. He opened the highway and the marina. In 1973, the research ship Akademik Petrovsky, near Gibraltar, photographed an underwater structure that looked like the wall of a building. The picture clearly showed the blocks stacked in a strict order. Cuban archaeologists have found an obsidian lens near their shores. Despite the fact that it was concave, the image through it was not distorted. Modern optics cannot explain this phenomenon.

And finally, flights of birds from Europe to South America, unprecedented in their range. This path is so long and difficult that under the wings they form calluses the size of a man's fist. Why would they fly to distant lands from warm lands to the North? There can be only one answer: once this path was much shorter and it ended in the warm, flowering gardens, the land of Atlantis. Instinct drives birds from year to year from South America across the Atlantic ... and further - to cold Europe.

Russian writer Vladimir Shcherbakov promises us a meeting with legendary country: “Astrologers have predicted that Atlantis will emerge from the abyss of the ocean in the 21st century. If so, then the wait is not so long. Lucky - we will see everything with our own eyes.
