Atlantis: truth or myth?
Plato refers to Atlantis in his dialogues. He says that got this information from the initiates of ancient Egypt. Plato was a serious writer, so this information must be true. It recalls the migration of the Arias that passed through ancient Egypt and went to Atlantis. In antiquity there were several catastrophes that originated legends like the flood. But, tectonic plates, erupting volcanoes (Vesuvius in Pompeii), tsunamis, etc. It happened. It was Atlantis, myth or truth? It was true. This island continent (like Australia) existed and was located in the Atlantic Ocean, as Plato said, after the Pillars of Hercules, that is, after the Strait of Gibraltar.
A brief summary of human history
The history before the history
The earliest fossils of hominids date from 3,5 million years. These hominids spread across the globe. With the genetic variation and influence of environment various species appeared. Which explains the Neanderthal man, that is human like us, our cousin in evolution.
The homo sapiens were to Europe, Middle East, Asia and Oceania where Lemuria existed that was flooded by the Oceans (some groups isolated themselves like happened in Australia), and to Atlantis that remained, according to Plato, after the Strait of Gibraltar.
More or less, about 15,000 years ago, appeared on Earth the white races (Arians), Egyptian race, Jewish race and the Indian race. Here begins some civilizations before known civilizations.
The world was inhabited by wild tribes descended from hominids. These races wrote the history that culminated with civilizations of 5,000 years ago. The first place in the world that had a society divided into castes, with functions and laws was the present India. Even religion and materialism, because of the ancient Mahatmas, arose in India.
The Aryans began to migrate from India to: 1. Atlantis, via Suez waterway, Egypt and North Africa, and 2. Iran, going to Europe (about 10,000 years ago). The entire Mediterranean region was influenced by the Aryans: Sumerians, Persians, Carthaginians and Europe in general.
Before the history of known civilizations (ancient Rome, ancient Greece, Phoenicians, etc.), there was a principle that culminated with these civilizations. The history before the history.
@kljketretyyu1,
The Jewish race? Seriously? You think this is the Daily Stormer?

Oh man, there's one born every minute.
Hey, you wanna buy a bridge--it could make a mint for ya!
Plato was a serious writer because he never understood jokes
@kljketretyyu1,
Researchers studying the ocean floor can tell if a part of it has been above water in the past few thousand years, because the features will not be eroded like land underwater will be eroded. They found that there is NO large body of land under the sea that was above water in the last several thousand years.
Hence, no Great City Of Atlantis ever fell beneath the waves.
@Blickers,
Lost cities aren't confined to Atlantis, there's supposed to be one off the coast of Cornwall.
Quote:In Arthurian legend, Lyonesse is the home country of Tristan, from the legendary story of Tristan and Iseult. The mythical land of Lyonesse is now referred to as the “Lost Land of Lyonesse,” as it is ultimately said to have sunk into the sea. However, the legendary tale of Tristan and Iseult shows that Lyonesse is known for more than sinking into the ocean, and that it had a legendary presence while it remained above ground. While Lyonesse is mostly referred to in stories of legend and myth, there is some belief that it represents a very real city that sunk into the sea many years ago. With such a legendary location, it can be difficult to ascertain where the legend ends and reality begins.

A kernel of truth. But with a lot of myth added after the fact.
Atlantis was the Greek island of Thera/Santorini, and possibly also the Minoan civilization on Crete.
They were very prosperous from their sea commerce, and they were quite technically advanced for their era. They even had indoor plumbing and flush toilets, in the Bronze Age.
Compared to typical living standards of that era it is pretty easy to see how their technology would seem almost magical to outsiders.
And then the volcano erupted and Thera/Santorini
did sink into the sea. The Minoans on Crete were devastated by the tsunami from the eruption, and their culture never recovered from the blow.
@kljketretyyu1,
I’m gobsmacked but taking notes.
And some folks wonder how Mankind has gotten as far as we have !
