Plato's story of Atlantis and a description of its tragic failure, over many centuries has been considered a legend. Even today, the scientific world there is no uniform opinion as to whether this hypothetical civilization really existed. Maybe so, but maybe not ...
There are a multitude of assumptions and scientific hypotheses about whether Atlantis existed at all, where is and why (and how) to disappear from the face of our planet. The most important source of its glory is found in Plato's "Dialogues" (Timaeus) which states that the story during their stay in Egypt, around 583rd BC. n. BC, Greek philosopher Solon heard.
Where is there?
Once, in ancient times, beyond the Straits 'Herkulusovi pillars' (Gibraltar), recorded Plato, stretched to a large island that was called ~ Atlantis. The island had an area about 154,000 square miles, and it has lived around the 2o million people. The country is rife with hot springs, and forests were living elephants and other African animals.
Fertile plains were intersected by many canals, which served as waterways for transportation of various goods and agricultural products. The richness of these hypothetical civilizations fact that its capital was besieged high bronze walls and castles, villas and temples were covered with gold and silver.
Many researchers have placed Atlantis in the Atlantic Ocean, near Azores island
Of 12 ooo. until 9ooo. years, Atlantis ruled over that part of the world, managing a gigantic Mediterranean empire, which reached to Egypt and Italy. Atlanta fought for the creation of such a state community in which the ideals of brotherhood and friendship was the greatest treasure.
But the "one terrible day and one terrible night," said Plato, 'Atlatidu is swallowed - more !...'
From then until now has been written about her over 2o.ooo books that presents numerous assumptions. One of the last written by an Austrian engineer Otto Heinrich Muk, a man very wide vision.
Muk emphasizes that Plato told the truth, adding that the Atlantis could be in the vicinity of the Azores, which lie at a distance of 1.2oo kilometers from Europe.
