Buried City in South of Spain Connected with Atlantis?

Archeologists from Spain’s Higher Council for Scientific Study are looking for evidence of a city that may have been buried by a tsunami in the south of Spain

The Tartessian civilization, which developed in southern Spain between the 11th and 7th centuries BC and became rich trading gold and silver from local mines, has long been linked by mythologists to the Atlantis legend.

Lost city of Atlantis ‘could be buried in southern Spain’

The dates, if correct, are certainly right since Plato said that Atlantis came to its end around 9,000 B.C. A civilization that flourished between the 11th and 7th centuries B.C. would have been contemporary with Atlantis. And, a city on the coast of southern Spain would have been geographically close to Atlantis, a continent in what is now the Atlantic Ocean.

In a March 17, 2010 post on this blog, I had said:

“even Google Maps mappers thought they had found the underwater streets of the lost city of Atlantis off the coast of Africa until they realized that their mapping boat had made the marks.”

Well, now you can see a video of the Google Maps image of what might be Atlantis at this URL:

Well, what do you think? Is that Atlantis?

Lost City of Atlantis in South America?

Here’s a refreshingly unique take on the location of the lost city of Atlantis:

Due to continental drift it is easy to see that the western coast of Europe and Africa fit quite well against the eastern coasts of the American continents. This leaves no room for an island continent in the middle of the Atlantic ocean; but back when the tale of Atlantis was told nobody was aware of the American continents. It could be that Atlantis existed in South America. Many ancient stone structures incapable of carbon dating techniques lay in Bolivia and Peru.
