ya it could have bin an volcanic island that erupted and wipe them out

I was probably a myth because if it were real the chances are we'd have concrete evidence by now but we don't.

The Strait of Gibraltar connects the North Atlantic Ocean and the Mediterranean Sea.

The Atlas Mountains stretches from Tunisia in the Mediterranean Sea to Morocco in the Atlantic Ocean side of the African continent.

Most of the accounts regarding the legend of the Lost City and Continent of Atlantis were largely from Greek Mythology. And so were Atlas and Hercules.

Legend and myth – two different words with similar meanings.

I believe in the modern theory that Atlantis is somewhere in the area where Iceland is.

And I believe in the story of Atlantis! LOL

Atlantis by name suggests that it would have been in the Atlantic (not the Mediterranean) Sea. I have no idea whether it existed or where, but I often wonder about the fact the British mainland was joined to continental Europe before the English Channel cut it off, maybe that could have started the legend.

Not as it's described in lore, but could there have been "advanced" civilizations which disappeared? Of course, and if you hang on just a little longer, I think we're going to see another one get sucked into the proverbial sea.

I do.. there have been some good documentaries about this and proof that it did exist back then. Unlike the fairy tale of Jesus being an actual person which there is no real proof anywhere. It would have been an interesting life to live during that time period.

Since Plato was predominantly a philosopher and wrote predominantly discourses on many topics I'd say yes as he was probably chronicling he knew or believed to be true.

Think it is no more than an utopian dream popularized by Francis Bacon's essay of 1625
