they should have given the whole thing to Tony Robinson and his Time Team.
They would have solved it - in 3 days only -.
Tony and his team are so much fun to watch!
@@nostromo7928 and while i am sure many items were carefully scripted, the bantering between the team members for sure were not always the products of the script writers.
Time Team doesn't do Atlantis content that I'm aware of because there is no archeological evidence for Atlantis. The only evidence is historic evidence in written word that has been wildly misinterpreted by these misguided snake oil salesman.
u guys should tell your editors, to turn the music up more, so we can't understand anything and this becomes a musical...
good one! 😂
No doubt…
😂😂😂
Actually they don't listen to comments or suggestions like we do.. they don't care about us watching, just to have hits on UA-cam.. see the replies from them? Nahhh they dont care... Btw your comment is true
Well put
Please just present the evidence in your videos without the dramatic music and dramatic narration. The mystery of ancient civilizations is enough drama in and of itself. When you add more drama it has a reverse affect on credibility. Thank you.
Another sensational documentary with over-the-top voice-over. I'm skipping this one.
With the exception of the fact another 12,500 year Atlantean event will happen this year/2024...Example/ all islands in the chain east of Cuba will go under the sea...The Sun will rise in the west for 5 days, and the Earth will stop rotating for 3.5 days..
Yep totally agree.
I have to agree.
How do you know then ??
Absolutely mesmerizing! This video beautifully brings ancient mythology to life, making it both educational and captivating. Well done!
Eye of the Sahara is much more likely. This is just a re-upload of an older documentary.
Greetings from Netherland
I agree. If nothing else, that area needs to be explored. I'd love to hear Graham Handcock's or Andrew Collins's take on it.
I watched it. And once again in conclusive. Nothing really found. Just speculation.
Tnx, I expected that up front, it became more and more likely, and went to the comments half way through to confirm 😂
Well if it is found or has been already.. few will ever know.
It would be nice if the sound level on the video matched the sound level of the History Hit commercial. So hard to hear.
I'm like fox molder I want to believe.......
Don't
mulder my man... mulder!!!
Me too!
Unfortunately, no one has investigated the Richat structure in Mauritania.
How about looks for the Eye of Sahara on the map
A most persuasive argument. Fascinating!
There is no Atlantis and there is no ancient super civilization. I hope people will research human history and pre history themselves and realize this is a fairy tale. Humans evolved over hundreds of thousands of years and most of our history is super boring and super brutal and we should be grateful to our ancestors for simply surviving so we could make it this far.
Your underwear find is fantastic, now when was that area last dry land? My guess is that your looking at a civilization around b4 the flood/ ice age meltdown. Quite a find id say. Not Atlantis but possibly one of the other 9 Atlantian cities?
Why no use of LIDAR and GPR?
4000 years just ain’t old enough lol
This might would be a interesting video if the music was stopped but I can't hear the best in the world to begin with one. Two if I wanted to watch a musical I'd watch pink flyod the wall or Tommy by the Who not a show about history 😂😢😮
talk about mud flats, my girl's got 'em
I think some of you are forgetting this is for entertainment
I know that if or when Atlantis is discovered that it be one of the greatest achievements of all time. However I wonder how long it would take to discover the power source that this ancient civilization was said to possess.
This theory of it being in pain makes more sense than some other theorys its highly possible that an ancient civilization may have existed there
But was it called atlantis? That seems to be a name that the greeks came up with
Also theres people that troy didnt exist either but it does
The theory of it being in Spain I mean
I thought it was so cool when it was confirmed that Troy actually existed. Old stories shouldn't be tossed out because we haven't yet found any evidence. There's so much still to be found under the desert sand, the oceans, the polar ices, and in the jungles of the world. Frankly, I think a lot HAS been found that we haven't heard about that's probably in people's private collections. I'd love to see what the Vatican has that they DON'T display to the public. I get excited just thinking about it! 😂
That secret symbol they mentioned is the Egyptian "shen" symbol (they've shown it up side down). Its symbolizes a type of infinity.
Plato who attested to the existence of Atlantis and where he believed it was, was a philosopher and not a cartographer, nor for that matter was he even a sailor of note. Personally I believe that it never actually existed, this was nevertheless an interesting watch so thanks for upping it.😊
Don’t use red as a border on the thumbnail. It means video was one we watched already. ❤😂
I missed those days with inflatable drones / balloons..
Atlantis was just Egypt!
Can this video be older then when drones first came out?
I think comparing the Iliad’s veracity to Plato’s account of Atlantis is rife with errors: Homer wrote the Iliad at most 600 years after the battle of Troy while Plato placed Atlantis approximately 9000 years before his time; while both the Iliad & Plato’s Atlantis contain many supernatural elements, one’s core theme is of a war of expansion (a decidedly realistic activity &, in the history of humans, so frequently repeated as to become mundane), while the other’s core theme is of god’s punishing people for hubris (which, at least from a historical/archeological/scientific standpoint, has absolutely never happened once, ever).
Atlantis is a parable best treated metaphysically, the Iliad is a historical account in epic poem form.
Plato describes Atlantis as being 'beyond ' the Pillars of Hercules from.....lol the perspective of Greece. Therefore wouldn't it be logical to look in the Atlantic rather than in the Mediterranean sea? Just a thought.
My bets are on Santorini or Azores
Antarctica is ''under water''... frozen water...
Perhaps, perhaps, perhaps.
This documentary stated that Plato had the Bible as one of his sources. The Bible was written after Plato lived.
Yep. Shows that they weren't real careful in the fact-checking department. I doubt they're too worried about getting the facts straight. 😉
so structures are under mud but figures are gust un surface? and destryed by tsunamy was somehow ended with all stowns well aligned under these? (that is actualy natural geological effect) Freund was more of a movie macer than historian
5:57 - yes very circular... if that circle was drawn by a drunk who'd just taken a bar stool to the head. There is no definite circle there, at all. This a classic case of pareidolia, finding meaning where there is none.. To see an actual scientist making this age old mistake is frankly shocking.
This location clearly did not sink beneath the sea, so it fails right out of the starting blocks. You can't take your one and only source for something (and as the lady says in this video, there is literally no other source) then selectively edit it to bludgeon your pet site into an Atlantis shaped hole. That's not how you prove things.
Plato was a philosopher, not a historian. Since we know from plate tectonics that what Plato described is not possible and that he also described Athens fighting Atlantis at a time when we know the former did not exist it conclusively proves he is not a reliable source and no one should take Atlantis seriously. Right there, in plain English (or rather translated Ancient Greek) are two major points of failure. It is extremely improbable the similarities to Atlantis and Minoan Crete and Thera/Santori are a coincidence. Plato almost assuredly knew of them.
There are many fascinating sunken ruins off the coast in many places that deserve full exploration and study. That cannot be denied. But to try and make them fit the Atlantis myth is foolhardy and indeed does them a disservice.
I think Atlantis is under the glacier that covers the inland sea of Greenland.
I think Atlantis is on the dark side of the moon
Hey Maximus I also think this and I almost never see anyone else who does so I’m glad to find your comment.
@@Haught127 everyone seems so hung up on that bluff formation in northwest Africa, but I don't see any reason to jump to that conclusion. It's just a rock formation, and it's much too small.
Now here thing, Atlantis being found in the eye of Africa, you still have 9 ofther Atlantian cities to be found.. they i don't believe all went down in a single flood overnight.
I think it's funny out of all Atlantis documentaries they never ever mention the Maurice Ewings 1948 and 1954 studies of the mid atlantic ridge and Azores finding proof it has been above the wave many times in the last 150,000 years?And was dry land 13,000 years ago.Right when Plato describes the sinking of Atlantis.I bet someone was living there before the end of the last ice age.There is scientific proof it's easily possible?
I actually don’t appreciate the music overpowering the narrative. Bad choice
What archaeologists believe was Atlantis was found by a perfectly respectable American-Spanish joint expedition in southern Spain in Donana National Park on the Atlantic Ocean, results announced in 2015. Don't these diving scientists follow reports? The race has been decided.
No, seriously, look it up. And there are many good reasons why it was where they say it was, on the coast of southern Spain, although it was a Bronze Age city. For instance, as a port it would have straddled both the ancient Atlantic seaboard trade and the Mediterranean trade with its position next to the Pillars of Hercules as well as the Atlantic islands trade and could have been a great city indeed. But it was destroyed by a massive tidal wave originating either from a nearby fault line earthquake or an eruption in the Canary Islands or Azores, highly volcanic islands, perhaps in a day. Atlantis was in a highly seismic part of southern Spain, North Africa, AND The Pillars of Hercules. And it was NOT known as 'Atlantis' (see below *).
Now this happened perhaps 2000 years before Solon's time. So if Plato was describing events about a destroyed place outside of the Pillars of Hercules he may have been drawing on some vague story based on reality, but only to the extent that there might be a plausible folk memory of the event taking place a couple of thousand years before (with embellishments!). But to describe some event taking place 9000 years before would have been literally impossible.
I think it significant that there was relatively little attention given by the ancients to Atlantis either in literature, mythology, or art. It certainly had no central role in classical culture, it only assumes significance as a story made up by Plato in the realm of philosophical dialogue. This suggests that most of the intense interest in Atlantis and particularly its role as a foundational and fabulous historical place and all the pseudo-scientific interest in 'Atlantis' is a modern invention, and carried on by quacks in our own time but also taken seriously in Nazi racial doctrine ie the idea of a superior race dominating early mankind.
* I found the following interesting information on the internet about how the ancients themselves viewed the myth of Atlantis (Quote): 'The term "Atlanteans" was also applied by the Greeks to the Phoenician colonies along the Barbary Coast of North Africa--i.e. those living near the Atlas Mountains. Diodorus Siculus describes their Titan-mythology and wars with the Libyan Amazones. Plato may have the same nation in mind for he names the second Atlantean king Gadeiros after a famous Phoenician colony near the Straits of Gibraltar.' (Credit Theoi Mythology Project). So we apparently have a good idea where Plato derived his name for his city, from the Phoenicians! Scott Zema BA MA Art History and Architecture UW
These viseos are only interesting with a healthy dose of scepticism. Not just eager 'I wanna be the one to find it ppl'. Time Team, where are you? It'll probably be another roman foundation or something
Some people would like to believe it was real others consider to be greek mythology
It would be Egyptian mythology. Plato's ancestor Solon learned about it while traveling in Egypt.
Now minoans died off after the younger dryas, way after. Were looking for a civilization that went down 11500 years ago. And the only civilization that wrote anything down about it was Egypt. Minoan civilization does not fit.
I would like to have the ad-free documentary that I pay monthly for. Enough with the HH sh**!!
You pay for youtube? Waste of money imo. Just run adblocker fast. As far as the HH ads I agree, but hey it's their channel. They can put almost whatever they want into their video and there's no amount of bitching in the world that's going to change it. So just stop already and skip forward 30 seconds and get on with your video.
I don’t mind watching ads when the quality is good, as long as they are reasonable in number.
i have no ads at all. without an adblocker.without a VPN. Suppose depends also which country you are in?There isone ad though.But this is site and episodes related only.and that i dont mind.
Atlantis only appears in two stories by Plato.
Both fictional.
This is like using Harry Potter books to try and find Hogwarts.
It's a little silly and it's time we spend money looking for other things instead.
My god, the babies in this comment section 😂😂
Next on Odyssey - nazi base on the Moon
another documentary that waste people's time, this should be titled "Still Finding Atlantis". Don't do another documentary until Atlantis is actually found.
Not a chance this story from Plato is real. Lmfao what a waste
More nutters spending money on a myth... i love the guy who says "Atlantis is just out there and nobody wants to know" ah ah you got to love the crazy folk of this world
The fact you guys made this show out in the mud flaps when you no darn well Atlantis is not out there!!!!!bull*hit!!!I can see the other place but Mud flaps.....just crap!!
Im going to watch this show, but Atlantis has been found. Its the eye of Africa. Fact
Fact? Since when? To the best of my knowledge that site neither sank nor is there any evidence of the type of structures described by Plato. The size is also completely wrong.
Cut back on loud back ground music while people talking , this is not a music channel but learning
If you want to find the city or prove it is real then start with the word Atlantis and break it down to find out its origins then you will narrow down its location to at least one place it can be.
For example If Atlantis is a Greek word you know it’s someplace in Greece.
Love it!
Ancient Aliens territory. So much for fresh takes.
Ya know what would be interesting? An Atlantis doc focusing on why humans are so interested & invested in treating mythology with such obsessive, need-to-prove-it-true fervor.
The lost city of Alantis is located in Mauritania in the Sahara! You guys are way off!
Wrong. It's in my backyard
@@LuDux Lol!!!
