Hispanic-Cuban Investigator believes Plato’s Critias did not place Atlantis in the Ocean
I have not read Plato’s Critias in which he refers to the lost city of Atlantis. However, according to Spanish-Cuban investigator Georgeos Doaz-Montexano, Plato did not specifically say that Atlantis was located in the ocean. The following excerpt is from Tartessus – Atlantis. They look for its rests in Andalusia. Unfortunately, the article has been very loosely translated from Spanish to English. Therefore, I would imagine that the word “rests” in the above article title has been incorrectly translated and actually means “reamins,” hence: Tartessus – Atlantis. They look for its remains in Andalusia. Here’s the quote:
an erroneous concept of which the Atlantis was beyond the Pillars of Hercules, in middle or center of the Atlantic Ocean, when Plato not even mentions the Greek word ?kean?s (the Ocean). Plato says of very clear way that the Atlantis was located in the Atlantic Pelagus (Atlantikou Pelagos) or Atlantic Sea-Arm, in the lobby of the gulf (Gulf of Cadiz), ahead, before – in greek: ‘pro tou stomatos’ – and almost in the mouth or well-known opening like the Pillars of Hercules.
