	Atlantis: No way, No how, No where (Skeptical Briefs September 2001)
		Edgar Cayce, the "Sleeping Prophet," predicted that Atlantis would be uncovered in 1968 or 1969; nineteenth century mystic Madame Blavatsky claimed that she had spent seven years in Tibet studying with Hindu mahatmas who taught her about the lost civilizations of Atlantis and Lemuria.
		Atlantis is mentioned by no one before Plato, and was never part of the broader interconnected traditions of ceramic art, poetry, literary allusions, local legends, or monumental architecture.
		Atlantis continues to captivate people's imaginations because it offers the hope that lost ideals or some untapped human potential will someday be uncovered, not the masonry blocks of a dead civilization.

	Frequently Asked Questions
		Thera or Santorini, the volcanic caldera located is the Greek region of the Mediterranean Sea, is often claimed to be the remains of Atlantis by several Atlantologists of scientific repute.

		A: To be sure, there is. The destruction of Atlantis is variously allegorized as the Death of the God that we have in almost all religious traditions: the death of Osiris, the one of Christ, that of Adonis, Attis, Kronos, Tammuz, Baal, Dionysus Zagreus, and a myriad others.

	Santorini and the legend of Atlantis
		Atlantis - the story about a prosperous land that disappeared without trace, sunk into the sea by the anger of gods - has been one of the oldest myths of mankind.
		Atlantis stands for one of mankind's oldest dreams and myths, the one of the lost paradise.
		In this, the decadence of Atlantis from its divine origins and its prosperity to decadence and total destruction acts as both as a counterpoint to Athens and as a warning.

		Atlantis, originally mentioned by Plato, was supposedly an ancient culture and island that he said was destroyed by a natural disaster (probably an earthquake) about 9,000 years before Plato's own time.
		Atlantis might be a work of pure fiction, however, possibly intended to illustrate Plato's philosophy on the ideal government.
		Among those who believe in an historical Atlantis, the leading theory holds that Plato's story of the destruction of Atlantis was inspired by massive volcanic eruptions on the Mediterranean island of Santorini during Minoan times.

	World Mysteries - Mystic Places - Atlantis
		Atlantis started with Plato and in his hands it was never a supercivilization of the sort conjectured by later authors; perhaps in strictly Greek terms it was no civilization at all but rather a fatally luxurious elaboration of an essentially barbarian way of life, for all its inception by a god.
		Both Atlantis and old Athens were, for Plato, but episodes in the ever ongoing cycle of catastrophes and renewals that he saw as the most rational and scientific interpretation to which the world of human experience could be subjected.
		The Atlantis Blueprint is their term for a sophisticated network of connections between these sacred sites that they trace to Atlantis: a sophisticated maritime society that charted the globe from its home base in Antarctica...until it was obliterated by the devastating global changes it anticipated but could not escape.

	Atlantis: the Myth

		In the retelling of the story of Atlantis it is easy to see how one of these cities could be associated with it.

	ATLANTIS
		When the two armies clashed the arrows flew in such clouds that they darkened the sky, the hooves of the chariot horses were like thunder upon Olympus, the brazen armour of the Atlanteans dazzled the eye and their spearheads seemed as multitudinous as wheat growing in a field.
		Plato's Atlantis was as kind of paradise - a vast island 'larger than Libya and Asia put together' - with magnificant mountain ranges, lush plains which teemed with every variety of animal, including elephants, and luxuriant gardens where the fruit was 'fair and wondrous and in infinite abundance'.
		The capital of Atlantis, built in the very centre of the island, was remarkable for the scale and splendour of its public buildings which were designed in an architecturally harmonious blend of white, fl and red stone.

	Atlantis: The Lost Empire (2001) (Site not responding. Last check: )
		Of the bunch, the only one that could qualify as a mild financial success would be Disney's Atlantis, which is baffling considering it's probably the weakest film of the bunch.
		After dispensing with a spectacle of a prologue in which the titular city is flooded by massive tidal waves, the film skips to the year 1914, where linguist and generally nerdy scientist Milo Thatch (voiced by Michael J. Fox) is once again unsuccessful in securing funds for an expedition to the fabled lost city.
		The first half of the picture, which details the crew's journey to Atlantis, should have been fraught with excitement and wondrous discovery, but these scenes are rushed through too quickly to sustain any sort of momentum.

		Of all the mysteries that shimmer in the realm of the unknown, just outside the grasp of scientific proof, few can claim the continuing fascination of lost lands and vanished civilizations, especially those that are said to have slipped beneath the dark waters of the sea.
		Plato gave the first account of Atlantis in various dialogues around 350 BC, describing the Atlanteans as a wealthy, successful, politically advanced and militarily powerful society that overrun Europe with their armies, being only defeated and repulsed by the Greeks.
		Shortly afterwards an earthquake caused Atlantis to sink beneath the ocean.

		Atlantis was our hope of such a change, but unfortunately it's the just the same tired old story wraped up in ugly drawings and a story with more holes than a fish net.
		We have Atlantis, the first movie Disney has done in recent years that breaks the mold of the so-called "Disney formula": wisecracking comic reliefs, lovable non-talkative pets, songs fit for Broadway and a bit more toned-down as far as violence and scariness are concerned.
		The opening sequence of Atlantis (including a fantastic opening shot, sound and animation-wise), the encounter with a mechanical Atlantis guardian and the ending are just as thrilling for adults but maybe a bit too intense for little kids.
