What is Atlantis?
Atlantis is a myth
and legend about an island kingdom that disappeared in the sea. Atlantis was
name after Atlas, who was the first king of Atlantis. This Atlas was possibly the
titan Atlas from the Greek mythology. Platon, the philosophist, was the first
to write about Atlantis, and the source of the legend to survive. But it can
possibly be made up by him also.
It has been discussed
if This myth is true, and Atlantis have exited. But it is not cleared since non-have
found a place to be truly said to be Atlantis. But many sunken cities have been
found around the world, so the myth can hold some truth at least.
Explorers and researchers
have searched most of the world for Atlantis. To mention some places, they have
searched most of the Mediterranean Sea, since the myth is Greek it is natural
to start search here. It has been searched for in Scandinavia, in the Caribbean,
around in northern America and many other places.
