The legend of Atlantis sinks deep into the sea and "lives" in the stories of mankind

On our planet there are many secrets that have not yet been revealed. Although it has appeared in many ancient stories, the existence of the city of Atlantis has not been confirmed. Humanity has repeatedly mentioned this city as a legend.

The city of Atlantis was first mentioned by the ancient Greek philosopher Plato more than 2,300 years ago in two works: Dialogues Timaeus and Critias. Plato created the dialogues of Timaeus and Critias with the great Socrates. And Atlantis is an important topic in these conversations. The city of Atlantis as described by Plato was a large island that existed before his time by about 9,000 years. Critias's grandfather, after being told the story of Atlantis by the sage Solon, told him.

Before that, Solon knew this story from Egyptian monks. Atlantis received protection from the sea god in Greek mythology, Poseidon. Plato's description in the Critias shows that the island was larger than Libya and Asia Minor, modern-day Turkey, combined and was located in the Atlantic Ocean, beyond the "Pillar of Hercules", the modern Strait of Gibraltar. now. This place has favorable conditions in both weather and terrain.

Sharing the same view as Plato, Tertullian, the father of Christianity, believed that Atlantis once existed in the Atlantic Ocean with a size larger than today's Libya and Asia combined. Tales show that the city of Atlantis on the Mediterranean Sea extended to Crete, the largest Greek island. Edgar Cayce, the American Christian mystic, believed that Atlantis and the Eurasian continent were similar in size.

According to legend, the city of Atlantis was built by the sea god Poseidon. He traveled around the world looking for the largest island until he found Atlantis, inhabited by the most beautiful and intelligent people in the world. Here, the god fell in love with Cleito. To protect his lover, Poseidon placed the city on top of an isolated hill in the middle of the sea and named it Atlantis.

Cleito's house in the city of Atlantis is surrounded by 5 water rings and 5 ship tunnels. The large outer channel connects the water rings to the ocean. All routes to the city are protected by gates and towers. The surrounding wall was built of red, white and black stone and decorated with precious metals.

Cleito and Poseidon had five sets of twin sons together. The first child was named Atlas. The children inherited the great city and Atlas became the first ruler of Atlantis. They also built a huge temple for their father with a statue of Poseidon riding a giant chariot with winged horses. The statue was built of gold, placed in a temple with a spiral roof reaching up to the clouds.

The fertile and beautiful city of Atlantis was a self-sufficient region and inhabited by gods and humans. People here grow their own crops and raise animals. They also built buildings from black and red stone. Rare metals such as brass are made and used for recreational and experimental purposes.

In addition to being a place where demigods and mortals live together. Atlantis is also mentioned for its extremely efficient irrigation system. The buildings built here are all made from black and red stone. The Atlanteans also had sophisticated metallurgy techniques with many rare metals and complex alloys such as brass. Most of Atlantis's metallurgical products were aimed at entertainment, experimentation, and they even studied volcanoes.

To this day, many people still believe in the return of Atlantis, including researcher Edgar Caycehad. Edgar predicted the appearance of a new land (ie Atlantis) that would emerge off the coast of eastern North America. Edgar even went further with the hypothesis that the ancient inhabitants of Atlantis were reincarnated in America to open a new era.

Some people believe that Atlantis did not disappear but simply "moved" to Mars, or more thrillingly, was once a colony of an alien civilization. Atlantis residents can possess special powers such as controlling the weather and controlling volcanic eruptions. In addition to the above powers, Atlantis residents probably also have devices that generate energy from time and space.

Determining exactly where Atlantis is is still a controversial issue. The legend of the lost city of Atlantis has been known for many centuries. It is believed that the city of Atlantis sank into the sea, but no one knows exactly where this legendary city is located.

However, if you still think that Altantis is only a legend? Don't get excited just yet, because ocean explorer Robert Ballard has found some quite logical similarities between the disappearance of Atlantis and the giant volcanic eruption on the island of Santorini in the Aegean Sea near Greece. What's interesting is that, according to Ballard, there was also an advanced society living there that disappeared suddenly like the Atlanteans. Similarly, many evidences also show that there really exists a continent in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean - the exact location that Plato mentioned.
