The Story of Atlantis, Part II: Searching for Atlantis 

Well, superman is literally the story of Achilles

@@owensanfordstuff so what you're saying is, Achilles is an allegory for superman????? :0

@@mothballmouth an adaptation or inspiration etc but yes, basically yes. Human tell the same few stories over and over

@happi Achilles was the strongest warrior that was probably based on a real person, only exaggerated for story - the idea of the Ubermensch then adapted into a comicbook form for the masses. In the story, he was an immortal and invincible being from the moment he drank a liquid, except for his ankles. Superman was an invincible being for years until the writers made him more relatable, by giving him the weakness of Kryptonite.

Please@happi Achilles wasn't a reporter either. The point is not everything has to match up, but he was the super man back then.

Helikie may have been some of the inspiration for Atlantis

Unless you really like digging

maybe you find something else?

Hahaha!

Because it’s in my back yard, duh!

@@ecurewitz Dammit, I knew it would be in somebody else's!

If our narrative is accurate its only older by 1 or 2 thousand Years. Not that big of a gap( joke) that being said I'd also love to know more and there is also mention of Atlantis in th old Frisain book the Ore Linda. However many count this to be a copy or made up. To me it's just interesting that another culture mentions Atlantis, how many others do ? Are they influenced by Plato ? Have you read the emerald tablet of Thoth? He mentions that they fled Atlantis and found Egypt and other places to settle.

I’ve been drawn to golbeki Tepe….I was shown I’m from Atlantis in a merge with my higher self. It’s real

Gobekli**... I mean I'm normally not pedantic, but if there were ever a channel for pedantry...

@@ossiencadwallourien-modred447 wrong as well, it's "Göbekli".

@@SM-zl4zd this is the type of interaction I expect on this channel. Love it. Thank you for your pedantry. I will be better.

Several mistaken facts. Firstly, Crete wasn't abandoned by its inhabitants after the Thera eruption. The Mycenaeans (greek forebears) conquered Crete shortly afterward but there was plenty of continuity even seen in modern genetic studies. For example adopting their script (known as Linear A) to write their proto-Greek language (Linear B), and much more. Secondly, the builders of the walls later deemed to have been built by giants were the Mycenaeans, for example the walls of Mycenaea itself. And again, the Mycenaeans were to ancestors of the later greeks, but who of course mixed with the earlier inhabitants. Also, the Bronze Age Collapse and fall of the Mycenaean civilization and subsequent dark age in greece was in about 1200 BCE. The Thera eruption was around 1600 BCE and Mycenaean golden age from 1400 BCE onwards. It is fascinating though and interesting theories around the island of Thera, seen in the following video. I hope my comment don't come off as hostile, just wanted to clear up any confusion and prevent future readers get the wrong idea.

Much appreciated!

Ya know this video is just some bits of history squeezed through the Bible. YELCH! This dude is boxed in and lookin for company Pro tip bro: The Eye of the Sahara was Atlantis. You can still see the rings and flood path to the Atlantic etc..

People would say the same about Pompeii or Troy had we not located them.

@@BlackMasterRoshi there is a certain difference between all this pseudohistory and troy: as soon as people started looking for it, they found the remains of troy.

You shouldn't be so closed minded

I'm always amazed I can read about an entirely new "world power" that held sway over 5 percent or more of the whole Earth for hundreds of years. With it's own language and culture that is gone. Completely. And I can read about a new one pretty much every day.

New to me*

Doggerland? Lmao Nothing that took place in the British Isles during that period of ancient history comes even close to resembling the advanced civilizational -or supernatural character of the Atlanteans described by Plato. All that could be found in Neolithic Britain was a primitive ‘megalithic culture’ (similar to those found throughout the Atlantic coast of Europe) that a mixed population of early Eurasian agriculturalists and Western Hunter-Gather throwbacks crudely developed prior to the arrival of the proto-Indo Europeans. An Athenian would not gaze upon some piles of stones in Doggerland (no matter how fine the masonry involved was) and walk away with a sense of awe.

@@thebrocialist8300 Doggerland was underwater 1000's of years before Athens was founded but the idea of lost cultures could have been the source of the myths like Atlantis (which I think original poster is aware of). The most likely candidate was the Minoan civilization but as Toldinstone says its pretty likely Plato made it up for his parable.

The glaciers did it

HA, my husband has bits of DNA from the area of ancient Doggerland. No lie, it's been confirmed. Of course, he also has 2% Neanderthal DNA, too, and that I would believe at times. 🤣

I wouldn't say as sturdy as him that 'Atlantis is just a myth'. What he plays at is the current academic world that has a mainstream narrative of history; that it was a straight line from Ur to our own world. More and more times the archeologists have been proven to be dead wrong! 'Greeks didn't know gears'.... oops, then came the Antikythera mechanism that's more sophisticated then any Swiss watch today! civilization began in Uhr, and then... oops, actually civilization began probably some 8 thousand years earlier, as they found Gobekli Teppe with stonework and stone carving that best anything that comes thousands of years later. Egyptology is a laughable endeavor on it's own. 'The pyramids were build in 20 years' coz some Greek smuck Herodotus said so...... Oh really? We couldn't even do something like that in 200 years, the closest thing we come to is the Cathedrals and they took 150-200 years to build and none are as impressive as the pyramids. And these stupid dumb shit explanations of 'academic' archeologists: when in doubt say copper chisels and pounding stones like you can clearly see the unfinished obelisk having kind of scoop marks but no, pounding stones they say -_- .... they tried to make the nose of the Sphinx that way and it was an absolute catastrophic FAILURE! So I wouldn't count on academics to explain stuff coz they are proven wrong so often that calling it an 'educated guess' what they do is even exaggerating what it really is. On top, there are many practices of ancient Egypt that one can find in the Mayan culture... it's pretty odd that they use the exact same riet canoe to peddle on water, that they both have a hieroglyphic script, and you can go on and on about the similarities. Ever been to the Osirion in Egypt? Tell me that doesn't look like some structure that could easily fit in the Mayan culture... or the massively huge granite boxes of the Serrapeum of Saquara.... 'academic' archeologists don't even want to mention it's existence coz 1. they can't explain it and 2. Any effort in explaining it will throw their precious mainstream narrative in the mud. So I don't put a lot of faith in 'academic' archeologists, that go beyond +/- the Bronze Age where they can translate scripture.

To be clear, this is a comment about Garret’s wordplay. Plato’s school was called the Academy, so anything pertaining to Plato and his writings is Academic.

I think the same!

same, great vid lots of evidence

no watch Randall Carlson he debunks it and gives an alternative in the Azores with through scientific and geological evidence

@@neoclassic09 scientific and geological evidence is amply provided in bright insights video lmao

@@daroth7127 he does not cite geology or studies

Really more of a counter-civilization...

@@BlackMasterRoshi WWLD♠️

@@BlackMasterRoshi Ah, someone who bitches about Jews online, totally unexpected and not indicative of your life lacking meaning or purpose at all

The problem with oral histories is that there is the “chicken or the egg” problem. Oral histories, just like written histories, are subject to outside influence, so many aspects of oral histories may contain elements that were added in by a later reciter of the history.

We calls it 'Murica. A good day to you Sir!!!

Also we have far more than merely 10 kings

It was like that when I found it, honest.

Yes, and how are you going to have an ancient maritime city that's currently over 500 km from the nearest coast? There is no way the Richat Structure has anything to do with Atlantis.

Too big

Nope, measurements are exact to Plato's description.

@@Chrisbell804 It's about 10 miles across. Which isn't that large when you factor in the water that would have surrounded it. And a powerful civilization such as Plato described would have easily filled that area, water or not.

(sound muffled by water) No, stop looking for us, I mean them...

Glad you enjoyed it!

Doggerland was a fully settled by humans over 6,000 years ago. Today it doesn't exist. Civilizations being swallowed up by water is not such an unlikely concept.

@@BlackMasterRoshi maybe when we did not know about geology and tectonic plates? But nowadays they are left naked as the actual dumbasses they were for even looking for it. Even romans in ancient times were like “yeah, thats a hilarious meme, haha atlantis? More like atlantities!”

@@BlackMasterRoshi Doggerland wasn’t a “civilization”.

Nope

He didn’t, and your correct Egyptians had thousands of records on Atlantis

The main problem is it's over 500 km from the nearest coast today, and 12,000 years ago, it would have been even further away from the sea.

Cries in the lost generation of the great war.

@@turtleofpride4572 That would be World War I, of course.

Yep, interesting enough a German found it right where it was described and as it was described.

@@justthink5854 so what lol

@@JordanMSeverns i guess you can't read.

@@justthink5854 I never said Graham handcock and friends aren't correct. I'm asking why you're randomly giving me a video and stuff

@@JordanMSeverns " I always assumed Graham handcock and others basically invented this narrative recently" sounded like you didn't believe him, and given this utube where the guy doesn't even mention the YD, i assumed that. glad you have an open mind.

I've heard rumors and speculation only...

Richat* And, unfortunately, displays no signs of man-made structures in the area. All we have found are some remnants of tools and bones left behind by nomadic human tribes in ancient times.

He did in the first video. It was just as unconvincing then

I like your style

I unfortunately think Disney got it more right than anyone else by teasing with Icelandic journals, because Aztlan means "Land of waterbirds" and the only true Waterbird of the Northern hemisphere is the Auks. Because of this, the Rockall Plateau is the best candidate that nobody seems to be interested in besides British and Icelandic cod fishermen. Asgard could have easily been Astlan, Askland, Aukland, Alkelund, Avalon. Gard, Eden, pLant, Lant, land are all variations of the same meaning; - cultivated lush land. Even the Basque language has the "Plant" root word meaning that it is very native to northwestern europe. Also bifrost, the rainbow bridge leading to asgard which only the gods (those with nautical and astronomical knowledge) could travel across is literally a frozen bridge of crystals and mist, placing Rockall Plateau perfectly within that myth as well during the time of atlantis. I think their highest technology would have been; - Oil-lamps from hunting seals and whales, - Decent ships due to being on an island that gradually lost the ice-bridge over the atlantic northern route. - an Advanced Astronomical calendar due to clear northern skies, navigational requirements and the benefit of predicting the seasons and thus the melting of the ice bridge. - Very healthy lifestyle and stature due to having the same diet as Orcas - Probably developed advanced mining and water management systems in order to keep their homeland from drowning (similar to netherlands with several reclamation projects, dams and dykes over a long period of time).

@@fredriks5090 Wow! Your theory is super interesting! I'd love to learn more about it, do you have any suggestions as to where or what to search for? Thanks!🤓😊

@@Gryphon2026 Unironically; - Tolkien He was dead serious about reviving british myth, and tried his best to mirror what the area would have been experienced like during the ice-age,- based on linguistics, myth, geography and climate. Read his books not simply as a child, but also as an adult. - Cloud Atlas also drops hints about this very real possibility within anthropology. The Wachowskis took Tolkien seriously, and so should you. Disney, Tolkien and Wachowskis share similar philosophy, because they're all interested in exploring the reality behind myth, language and music, especially that which got silenced by the Catholic censorship.

But please, learn to read it in Greek or you will be reading just another translator.

@@ZombieSolace Man I wish. I've only had one year of Greek and Latin. My best friend studied both for 6 years, he could do it, he's good but still struggles. It's a great language to know, unlocks access to many treasures, but you have to maintain it constantly. While back in the 19th century there were student's clubs where they only spoke a classical language. The bar has sure lowered with our so-called progress.

My solution is to read a 19th century translation, where original text and translation are presented side to side.

@@bromisovalum8417 I know what you mean. I studied 4 years and still struggle, specially with Greek. As you say, I believe the important thing is to keep reading, having the dictionary and the translation next to you is really helpful too.

i would like to hear your rant!

@Hyper Borean what are you even talking about "Trans people exist and therefore Atlantis is real"?????

@@jeremysworld3061 he’s a troll he rants on all the videos spouting nonsense

Russell's Teapot

That’s the god argument you’d think we’d have found the city of Atlantis or one of the other 8 supposed kingdoms of Atlantis by now if it existed and if it was a prevalent and powerful as Plato wrote. We at least have writings by say the Greeks referencing them prior to Plato’s writings

@@Aberman1 manly hall's work on Atlantis is worth checking out It's pretty comprehensive

Nope

I mean almost every form of early civilization has some form of flying serpent or dragon. You don’t see any historians saying there were flying dragons, ask most historians they’ll likely say it probably didn’t exist.

@@Aberman1 But there were flying dragons. Pterodactyls. Don’t ask me to link humanity to a 150 million year old extinct animal, I’m just saying flying dragons did, at one time, exist.

@@papwithanhatchet902 see for every one example of something that existed (and can’t really be linked) there’s animals like the unicorn that everyone agrees isn’t real and yet it’s been a cultural icon and will perhaps one day leave historians wondering what the hell we’re talking about

The other problem with the argument “every civilization has a form of a story like Atlantis” is that it proves that it’s more of an allegory than an actual place. The entire world couldn’t have known about it plain and simple during this time period, if we are going to say there are similar stories we have to accept it’s an allegory for how corrupt or non favored civilizations can fail

@@Aberman1 See, now, there are stories that have at one time been considered morality tales or parables that, under scrutiny, are discovered later to be likely histories. Troy, for example. Or the Exodus. I don’t think dismissive attitudes are helpful in the discovery of the past.
