Not bad. The original series was better and McCabe was really irritating.
|

Real.
I used to think myth until they started finding all of these lost cities around the globe. Somewhere off the coast of Africa probably. |
|
There were 12 kingdoms of Atlantis, which one we talking about?

Most likely a real place but NOT magical or supernatural (no “power crystals” or “Merpeople” swimming around).
The ancient city of Troy was once thought to be mythical until the physical remains were rediscovered in 1871. Personally, I think the “Eye Of The Sahara” (aka Richat structure) as Atlantis theory is intriguing. |
|
I believe Atlantis was real, but its technological level was early bronze age, not late space age.
|
|
There were almost certainly ancient coastal/island cities that were lost to flooding or some other disaster that resulted in them falling into the sea.
Whether there was one called "Atlantis" that ticks all the mythical boxes for that city? I doubt it. |

A perpetual myth much like the flood of Gilgamesh and others concocted during the metal age.

Skipper:
Quick, Marlene, describe the enemy terrain. Marlene: It's kinda jungly. So that could be, let me think, what, South America? Africa? Asia? Maybe Australia? Skipper: You gotta focus, Marlene! You just mentioned four of the eight continents. Maurice: Uh, there are only seven continents. Skipper: I count Atlantis. Trust me, lemur, if you had my security clearance, you would too. |

antediluvian societies built what we can't explain..
our arrogance is the only thing saying nothing existed before "I" 3000 years ago in Iraq. gobekli tepe they deny, yet their own theory of radilogy testing says 12000 years. 100's of cities in South and Central America being found thru lidar. Caral-Supe over 5000 yrs old cities discovered under water in India and the Med.. stuff the Smithsonian has shoved into the basement they can't explain |

It's there. I'm not sure if the people that lived there used that name for the city though. I think that pre flood the oceans covered a lot less of the earth surface. I would guess that there are quite a few cities that are currently under the ocean.

Highly underrated film, but still not as good as its fans insist.

Trawlers have pulled artefacts up from the north sea where Doggerland was. It is completely certain that ancient cities were submerged. |
|
I believe it was real. I also think way back in time there were some really other smart enclaves of humans.
|
|
Real, except the mind control, über-advanced crystal stuff.
Lost by fallible human stories, memories & time, like other civilizations. |
|
Potentially real.......as previously mentioned, Troy was once a myth, and as time goes on I think we will find more ancient cities discovered that were once only stories.

Quoted: Proof? View Quote “Extraordinary claims require extraordinary proof….” Carl Sagan I get it. My training is in chemistry. However, with human civilization/cultures and natural disasters of various planetary scale, like plagues, volcanoes & tsunamis, we will not know to provide data until it’s found, which may be never. Examples include The Dead Sea Scrolls, Ötzi, The Rosetta Stone, etc. or, penicillin or thiokol. Assumptions Atlantis was über-advanced are pointless because we have never found any evidence that past human tech is more advanced than current human tech. |

Their leader was King Tedturneus but he was vanquished by Tyleperrius

I'm slightly leaning on it being an allegory.
On the other hand, I wouldn't be real surprised if we discover history of civilization is older than we currently think it is. |

View Quote Some of the contemporaries of Plato held that view, but many others in his circle felt he was speaking on a real subject. I wish I could find the book about him, but there were others who dug into the history and works of Solon and maintained that he spoke on the subject outside of what Plato wrote about. |

Watch Randall Carlson's video series on Plato's account...Then watch his series on the Cosmic Grail.

View Quote I think it all originally comes from ancient Egyptian records. So I definitely can't say it's myth or a tale for sure. Lol. It's crazy to think how old history really is when even in Plato's time.... Egypt was considered an old civilization. |

Probably real in some form, definitely mythical in the handed down versions.
|

I believe mankind has risen to great heights and struck down due its hubris. We approach that point again (gene editing, control of weather, nuclear and biological warfare on an apocalyptic scale).
Like Einstein purportedly said, "World War IV will be fought with sticks and stones." |

Because it's like that experiment everybody does in school where at one end of the room someone passes down a message they whisper to the next person, and by the time it gets to the end of the classroom it's a bit different. |

Seems to me that Atlantis is in some sense the Hellenistic version of Eden. There are parallels, e.g. mess with (or taking, eating, reaching for, etc.) the powers reserved to the gods / God and get sunk / evicted.
But Atlantis has been turned into a secular myth along with the rest of the Greek/Roman pantheon, so we see its story adopted a lot more directly into alternate version stories than the Garden of Eden. (Lara Croft notwithstanding of course.) |
