The Legend of Atlantis
shahennews
The lost legend of Atlantis appeared with Plato, the Greek philosopher. In 360 BC, this famous philosopher wrote a book explaining Atlantis, which he describes as being larger than Asia and Libya combined. – It should be noted that Libya represented North Africa, and Asia was another name for the island of Cyprus and later on every known continent of Asia at the present time. According to Plato, Atlantis came into being 9000 years ago at the front of Hercules Pillars, now known as the Strait of Gibraltar area, along the entrance to the Mediterranean Sea. Plato states that the people of Atlantis had great naval power, which made them greedy and corrupt their manners. After they led a failed attack on Athens, a sudden natural disaster struck that island within an overnight period and became a shallower of impossible mud.
While Swedish geologist Ulf Erlingsson says that Ireland agrees with and corresponds to Plato’s descriptions of Atlantis, others see Atlantis as Spartel Island, which is that Atlantis became a shallow mudslide that had sunk into the sea at the Strait of Gibraltar since 1111.In his book The Discovery of Atlantis and the Surprises of the Island of Cyprus, American researcher Robert Samarst stated that he had found evidence of the existence of that lost continent between Cyprus and Syria by discovering traces of human settlements beneath the sea and at a depth of 1.5 km 80 km on the south-eastern coast of Cyprus. He believes that Cyprus is the part of Atlantis and the traditional scholars of the Atlantis myth. We’re going to lose an important point when we’re looking for those things if our mission is just to explore the sidewalks of the sea.
