Was it real or just a fictional story.
The legend of Atlantis has to be one of the oldest and most spellbinding of all the world's mysteries. It has puzzled both skeptics and believers alike. Where exactly was Atlantis and where is it now? What caused its destruction? Exactly how advanced were the Atlanteans? I hope someday everyone will know the answers to those questions.

Plato, a Greek philosopher, gave us the first known account of Atlantis. Plato was said to have lived from about 428 to 348 B.C. He was a student of Socrates. After studying with Socrates, Plato opened up his own philosophy school. There he began to write his philosophies in a play-type form. These dialogues always featured Socrates as the main character. In the dialogues Timaeus and Critias, he wrote about an amazing place called Atlantis. In Critias, Plato wrote of Atlantis' architecture, engineering, and ceremonies in great detail. Many people, even Plato's own students, thought this place
was Plato's own creation, but he argued that Atlantis was real, and filled with more splendors than anyone could imagine.

All races share the story of a great flood that destroyed an entire civilization. The name Atlantis appears in various forms throughout the world. The Canary Islands have a legend involving Atalaya. The Basques of Northern Spain have Atlaintica. The Vikings told the tale of Atli. Northern Africa called it Attala. The Aztecs have Aztlán, and the North American Indians called theirs Azatlán.

  • could you inbox me and let me know your opinion on the egyptians? if they were good or evil?..thanks

  • @thedon829 The ancient Egyptians were both good and evil. in their time they probably had just as much diversity as the moderns, including the American/british empire. So they were a mixed people. They even spawned the ancient israelites, who were a splinter group who escaped from the bottom ranks of Egypt during that Dynasty. Israel as well, is both good and evil. even Moses would concur.

  • leave this shit to those who actually know what they are takjing about

  • Idiot!!!

  • @RebLin51 Interesting! so you were there? How many Atlanteans are alive again on earth?

  • You tell them brother. I remember that great and wonderful city. Listen to him and your feet will be planted on the true path. You have wandered because your compass of life is not aligned to the true path of enlightenment. So, you wander in circles and stray far from the truth until you believe that east is west and north is south. Open your heart and see truly and follow it. AZ

  • can't figure out why 52 people don't like this. What is so unlieable about what ios being said?

  • @Suphiroth the founders of the US and designers of the current federal reserve note, do use symbols from the ancient Egyptians. yes. but they are probably following and practicing the very old power magick from those days. Power greed and manipulation has not changed much for the past many thousands of years. 3,000 or more years.

  • @MysterEy1 on the American dollar u will see a pyramid with the eye of Horus coincidence u think? i think not
