Was Atlantis Real?
Do you enjoy unraveling the threads of history from the legends and myths of the past? If so then you simply must go to Atlantiskingdom.com and read their propositions regarding the idea that Atlantis Was a Real Place, the Americas.
They espouse the idea that the Greek philosopher and educator from ancient days, Plato, is responsible for the beginnings of the stories of Atlantis. He gathered a group of scholars from the various schools of thought to come and speak to his students. Beside him, there were four other key scholars who spoke, Socrates, Hermocrates, Timaeus, and Critias. Plato’s students made up the audience that first heard the stories from Critias as he described Atlantis.
Many believe that the Americas, from what is now South America, to Alaska were once one large island that made up the kingdom of Atlantis.
The website has many persuasive ideas and, and you might find it fascinating to go and determine whether you believe they are credible.
Here is a press release:
Atlantis Was a Real Place, the Americas
The kingdom of Atlantis included North, South, and Central America. It was divided into ten countries or kingdoms and each country had its own King. One of the kingdoms was also called Atlantis. The King of Atlantis was the ruler over the other nine Kingdoms. The first ruler of the Kingdom was called Atlas. This is how Atlantis got its name.
The royal city of the kingdom was located within the country of Atlantis. Within the royal city there was a royal palace. Originally, three different moats surrounded the royal palace. Plato referred to the moat formation as three zones of water and two zones of land.
As time went by they covered over the moats and cut three canals through the peninsula on which the royal palace was located. The construction of the canals divided the peninsula and formed two triangular shaped islands. The island that held the royal palace was called Atlantis. That is why Atlantis is referred to as a continent, and city, and an island.
Read the short version of Plato’s story at www.atlantiskingdom.com to learn more about Atlantis and the Americas. Then read Plato’s Timaeus and Critias to get the complete story.
I have matched the terrain features that Plato wrote about with present terrain features found in the Tampa Bay area. Research shows that Plato described Harbour Island as the small island of Atlantis. You will find that Plato recorded and published the story just as it was told. He even recorded the discussions leading up to the story. You will also notice several obvious mistakes made in translating the story from Egyptian to Greek and from Greek to English. The biggest mistake occurred when travelers came upon a shoal of mud and thought it was left over from the sunken island. They were wrong. The continent of Atlantis did not sink.
You are invited to review the facts to see for yourself that the Americas, from South America to Alaska were once the kingdom of Atlantis, a single nation. The land formation is still laid out the same as it was over 11,000 years ago. It is best viewed from the air. See image.
