Yes, but you can only reach it via stargate. ?

Sure Atlanta exists... It is the largest city in the state of Georgia in the USA.

It's an entertaining story, to be sure. Unless and until it's "found", I'm going to continue to believe it's just another story.

Possibly, but probably as a fairly typical Mediterranean/Middle-Eastern town or city sometime during the Neolithic/Bronze Age/Iron Age eras, rather than the mid-Atlantic super-advanced city-state of myth.

A town or city "vanishing beneath the waves" would, very obviously, be ripe material for story-telling, both by those who told stories to entertain and by those who wished to convince their subjects that Atlantis had been struck by a cataclysm because its population were immoral (ie; did not live in the way the story-teller, or the leader that paid the story-teller, wanted his/her population to live). Like many stories, it grew over time as later story-tellers added their own details.

I suggest to read "Atlantis, the Antediluvian World" by Ignatius Donelly . The book is free on the Internet and was written around 1878. Donelly was a Congressman which was used as an excuse for not taking his book seriously. The book is very interesting and Donelly tries to prove that what Plato (250 BC) wrote about Atlantis. You will see how this man spoke of plate tectonics way before it was accepted by current science. He also explored the flora and fauna between America and Europe as well as comparing the histories of the native American tribes both in North and South America. In fact, this is a very goood book to read.

I have met many people who claim to be reincarnations of citizens (usually royal) of Atlantis. They tended to be fond of sheep because sheep were important in Atlantis. The ones I met were creative, imaginative people of a mostly "live and let live" mindset.

Love the legend.Is it true? They found possible site in islands.

The civilization on Thera was destroyed in a volcanic explosion about 3600 years ago. The island is now called Santorini. This would have triggered the fall of societies all around that area, and probably formed the basis of the myths thousands of years later.

The aliens built it.

If it was in Crete it probably did...

I voted 'possibly', though that needs to be expanded a bit. Many things are possible, but their probability needs to be addressed. Is it possible that a city may have been submerged in the past? Of course it is. Is it possible that such a city might have been named Atlantis? Yes. The likelihood of the first posit is 100% because we have found such places. The second posit is a little less likely, but certainly possible. The stories of Atlantis being a highly advanced civilization are another thing altogether. Technology such as what is described by various stories test the limits of credulity. Some of the stories are just patently false. It helps to understand that Plato's dialogues Timaeus and Critias were both allegories on the hubris of nations created to support his concept of the ideal state. In Critias we have Atlantis losing its war against Athens, falling out of favor with the gods, and sinking into the sea.

I agree that there probably was a city that ended up under water and history became legend and legend became myth, etc. Though I'll admit a fondness for theories about Antediluvian/Hyperborean civilisations.

An advanced culture in antiquity that was previously unknown - possibly. I hope I live to see the discovery of the culture that is the basis of the myth!

I saw a documentary recently about this with people who were archaeologists from all over the globe they found something that could have been where it actually was sited and had all the answers about why it couldnt be precisely located.

Possibly, but probably not in the way that it's depicted.

Possibly....&....and don't care. (Until we find proof...then I will be all over that shit. )

Too bad the bloody Romans, had to destroy the Alexandria library, or we might know more about it. I understand they had a good Fiction section, too!

Just like "Troy" which was fictional until it was discovered, Atlantis did exist in some form and is under water now.

The field of underwater archeology is still in its infancy. Most of the work centers around shipwrecks, particularly treasure ships which is something I know a little bit about as someone who has done some underwater metal detecting. Certainly there have been changes in sea levels over the course of history and in prehistory, there have also been subsidences in land masses that are quite normal from a geological perspective. So did Atlantis exist? possibly
Was Atlantis the way Homer described it? possibly Time will tell.

Seems unlikely. Humans seem good at making up and telling stories as if they were true. Seems nothing extraordinary points to the existence of Atlantis.

Don't many think it might have been the Greek island of Santorini?
