The legend of Atlantis, first mentioned by Plato in his works (Critias and Timaeus), is an mythical lost civilization and continent believed to have been submerged overnight around 9000 or 9500 BC, known for its prosperity and wealth.
Similar to the Mu Continent, Atlantis is also believed to have been inhabited by highly intellectual individuals, leading an advanced way of life for their time. According to British officer James Churchward, who first proposed the Mu Continent theory, Atlantis is considered to be an offshoot and continuation of Mu.
According to Pluton's writings, Atlantis, in around 9000 BC, had conquered and ruled over all of Western Europe. The civilization attempted to conquer Athens but met the wrath of the gods, leading to its submergence in a single night.
Atlantis later appeared in the writings of philosophers like Socrates and in the teachings of Egyptian priests. In their teachings and regions, Atlantis is also mentioned. According to ancient teachings, Atlantis was a wealthy continent ruled by nobility, but it vanished overnight, lost forever beneath the waters.
Research on Atlantis is still ongoing. Some historians associate Atlantis with the Ad race mentioned in the Quran, suggesting a connection between the two.
Ramses III mentioned Atlantis in his writings, placing it near present-day Rome. This led some historians to claim that the Egyptian civilization and culture were formed by migrants from Atlantis. According to renowned historians, Egyptian history (remember the construction of the pyramids) is characterized by an extremely advanced civilization with no discernible starting point. It is believed that these people inherited wisdom from Atlantis and used it to create structures and works that were far ahead of their time in the new lands of Egypt.
Especially in the research conducted by Canadian investigators in the Atlantic Ocean, ancient structures resembling pyramids were discovered 700 meters off the coast of Cuba and 180 meters deep in the depths of the Bermuda Triangle. It is claimed that this city is Atlantis. Additionally, it is known that between 12,000 and 9500 BC, during the Ice Age and major earthquakes, there were extensive forests underwater, even around England. It is believed that Atlantis disappeared in the midst of the Atlantic Ocean during this period. Although it is suggested that the city was submerged due to the lower sea levels and the warming of the climate causing the ice to melt, it is certain that this did not occur in a single night.
According to another study conducted by Americans, Atlantis existed and sank under the sea in an area between Cyprus and Syria. Today's Cyprus is considered to be the continuation of Atlantis. This means the region between Syria and Cyprus was the settlement of Atlantis, which was eventually submerged in the depths of the Mediterranean Sea.
While the search for the location of Atlantis continues, some argue that Atlantis was one of Plato's utopian cities and never actually existed. They claim that Plato, influenced by the Sicilian invasion and the Trojan War, included such a lost city in his works under the name Atlantis.
Other historians, accompanied by active archaeologists, are intensifying their efforts to locate Atlantis. According to Atlantis advocates, a great earthquake began the destruction of Atlantis, leading to its eventual demise. Those who attribute its disappearance to the Great Flood are in the majority. According to this theory, those who escaped from the lost city's destruction during the Great Flood formed the foundation of many civilizations, including the Aztecs and Scandinavian countries, as well as various peoples from European countries to the Egyptians.
