For everybody asking about the Richat Structure (Eye of the Sahara), please watch episodes 8, 9 & 10 of my Atlantis series to understand how I think this might all fit together: Ep.8: ruclips.net/video/q-fug_jzkxc/видео.html Ep.9: ruclips.net/video/whlNklXOmlo/видео.html Ep.10: ruclips.net/video/pNiKi-aIu1c/видео.html
Atlantis is neither the Azores or the Richat. The basis for the landmass is the Cycladic plateau, which would have made (most of) the Cyclades a single large island around 12,000 BCE. ...there are a couple scholarly papers on this.
I live in the azores and I belive that this island are part of Atlantis. In school they don't teach us about the origin of these island, we learn more about the main continent Portugal and the history of the português culture.. I always had a feeling that we are part of the Atlantis story.. Azores are the most natural, beautiful 9 island in the world.. Peace and love to all🏝️🌍🙏💜
The Azores are named after and were ruled by Azaes of Atlantis (one of the ten kings of Atlantis.) The capital of Atlantis is the Richat in Mauritania, Africa. The Azores were used as a place to rest and resupply during the return trip back across the Atlantic to Africa from Central America and the Caribbean. Atlanteans used the tradewinds to sail back and forth across the Atlantic and the Azores lie within the tradewinds on the return trip.
@@marijuanaman3757 You say that, yet etymology, Berber history & religion, Basque culture, geology, matches to Plato's account of Atlantis, science on the Younger Dryas, Egyptian religion, Greek mythology, Basque & Berber rare blood frequency, etc. refute your claim, some of which refute the seamount by several different above subjects cross-corroborating the Richat as the capital of Atlantis. Sorry, but your assumption-based, uninspected hypothesis fails in the face of scientific method, where the Richat hypothesis is close to a mathematical certainty. Experts on Atlantis know the three definitions of "Atlantis" as well as what the word "Atlantis" originally meant. Experts on Atlantis have read the majority of or all of Plato's details about Atlantis and compare all of Plato's details to a given theory. The best experts use scientific method to weed out the impossible. People who don't know what they are talking about take a few of their favorite details that Plato wrote about Atlantis (a word that they can't define and thus do not understand) or the commonly-assumed, incorrect, pop-culture narrative about Atlantis that Plato never actually wrote and make ignorant assumptions, which they are often wrong about. These people routinely can't process facts because they are closed-minded, lack critical-thinking skills and are in love with their own pet theory, which is almost always wrong. The reason most people pick a pet theory about Atlantis and get it wrong is because they really don't know what they're looking for in the first place and wouldn't know Atlantis if they found it by accident since they don't know what "Atlantis" means or the details that identify it. If a person didn't know what a cat was but knew that a cat had fur, then anything from a woolly mammoth, to a hyena, to a dog, to a rat could be identified as a "cat." This is the method that most people use to attempt to find Atlantis and it is a comically inept and completely unscientific approach to the subject of finding Atlantis.
@@marijuanaman3757 I don't have to cope. I have data that proves my stance, whether either of us like it or not. Interesting tactic for you to argue with insults and your feelings, instead of data. Your delusion is unfortunate. If you can't understand me or Plato then it would seem that Atlantis is too difficult of a subject for you. A pastime that doesn't require thinking, such as watching TV, seems to be the level of intellectual interaction that you are capable of. If you actually read and remembered any of Plato's details except your favorite one or two, you'd have a chance to know something about Atlantis. Your hypothesis is based upon ignorance and doesn't align with Plato's writing on Atlantis. Plato wrote that Atlantis' capital island was on a lake/inland body of water, which the Richat was between 15,000--8,000 years ago, according to radio-carbon dating. The capital island of Atlantis was never on the ocean, according to Plato's original writings in Ancient Greek. You have been misled to believe that Atlantis' capital was on the ocean by an incompetent translation of what Plato first wrote and an assumption that "sea" always means "ocean" when it obviously doesn't. Plato wrote that Atlantis was " covered by water" and subsided into a lake, not an ocean. Again, Atlantis never sank into an ocean, according to Plato. A continent that sank wouldn't leave Plato's "impassable barrier of mud to voyagers sailing hence (from Atlantis' capital) to any part of the ocean... caused by the subsidence of the island (of Atlantis, meaning the capital island, not the continent of Atlantis that is classically shown as Africa upside down)" because ocean currents would wash away mud quickly but a mega-tsunami like the one indicated by Bright Insight and confirmed by Oz Geographic that swept over the width of modern Mauritania (where the Richat is located) within the last 12,000 years certainly could have deposited Plato's "mud" that prevented sailing from the lake around the Richat or by the nearby Tamanrasset River to the ocean. W. Africa doesn't need an ocean running through it to be Atlantis. Read any scientific studies about the last African humid period, and you will learn that a significant portion of the Sahara was savanna. The Sahara had massive rivers and mega-lakes as little as 5,000 years ago. The Richat itself was a lake at the time of Atlantis and had the nearby Tamanrasset River running to the ocean and could be traveled both ways (from inland to the coast and from the coast inland) becuae of the level of its slope. "Atlantis" means "Atlas," Atlantis' king that Atlantis is named after. Atlantis' capital, the Richat, is in the Atlas Region next to mountains named Atlas (no not the Atlas Mountains that everyone knows about,) with a tribe of Atlases living nearby (attested to by Herodotus) and near the Atlas Ocean that was named from Africa's West Coast (according to etymology) where Atlantis' capital is. But you'd know that Plato wrote that Atlantis' land and nearby ocean were named after Atlas if you'd actually read Plato's writings on Atlantis and knew anything about the 50+ criteria for Atlantis that Plato listed, apart from a meager couple of details. Richat has verifiable evidence of Plato's details for Atlantis: elephants (bones, cave art,) concentric rings of land and sea (15,000-8,000 years ago) in correct number/sequence surrounding a central island with a freshwater spring, water exit to the south, massive collection of red white and black rocks, beautiful mountains sheltering it to the north, abundance of gold in the region, proximity to highest twin birth rate in the world (Atlantis was ruled by five sets of twins,) center of central island is 50 stadia distant from the lake/inland water body, 2000 by 3000 stadia plain (with natural landmarks) that descends toward ocean, etc. The Azores are named after Azaes of Atlantis, not Atlas. The capital of Atlantis is named after Atlas. The Azores were a colony of the Atlantean Empire, just not part of the continent and certainly not the capital. You'd probably know that too if you weren't so closed-minded and ignorant. The Azores are past Gibraltar, an island surrounded by the Atlantic and named after one of the 9 subordinate kings of Atlantis. That is where the Azores similarity to Atlantis' capital and continent ends because the Azores have no other details that match Plato's description of Atlantis. Every other similarity that the Azores supposedly had relies on complete imagination and zero tangible evidence. If there were more solid evidence for the Azores, they could compete with the Richat. The Azores has a less than 10% match rate to Plato's criteria for Atlantis. The Richat has an over 90% match rate to Plato's criteria for Atlantis. If Carlson had a lot of objectively-verifiable evidence to support his hypothesis, he might have a case. Sadly, Carlson's case is 90+% imagination and less than 10% objective facts. I'd suggest using scientific method to vet your hypothesis before posting uninspected theories or at least be open-minded enough to consider any hypothesis with better matches to Plato's description of Atlantis. I like Carlson. He has had many good ideas and I commend him for challenging ignorant dogma in academia. Unfortunately, Carlson is wrong in this case. Like you, he is ignoring a lot of relevant information about the criteria that Plato described Atlantis as having, is using tunnel vision to focus on a few data points rather than the extensive criteria for Atlantis and is in love with an idea that is widely considered impossible/improbable in the scientific community (glaciers raising the mid Atlantic ridge out of the ocean.) It certainly is an imaginative idea. As brilliant as he usually is, Carlson is being fairly bone-headed about Atlantis. You can't come in with a "weaksauce" case of less than 10% match to Plato's criteria for Atlantis and then ignore a match of over 90% to Plato's criteria and expect to be taken seriously. The Richat hypothesis is mostly facts that objectively match Plato's criteria for Atlantis, supplemented with plausible guesswork that matches Plato's criteria for Atlantis. Local culture, other subjects and scientific studies corroborate this theory. The Azores hypothesis is mostly guesswork and imagination. Most of the scientific community refutes the mid Atlantic ridge claim. Only a couple of objective facts match the Azores to Plato's criteria for Atlantis. Etymology and Berber culture argue that the Azores are not the capital island of Atlantis.
@@marijuanaman3757 Your statement is totally incorrect except fot the fact that the Sahara was not an ocean in the last 50k+ years. It's a shame that you aren't aware of the plethora of information that makes my statement a fact. It is also a shame that you have resorted to personal attacks because you are so misinformed and do not like my facts. I don't need to cope. Facts prove my position, whether either of us like it or not.

Randall Carson talked about the post glacial rebound on a Joe Rogan podcast, and how it would have affected the mid-Atlantic ridge. The land under the North American ice cap was pressed into the crust. Likewise northern Europe and the British Isles. In Canada today today the center of that depression is still rising at 18mm, but of course it would have risen much faster shortly after the ice was removed, likely by a comet impact at 12,900 BCE. I am a pilot. Pilots learn that if air is moving downwards in one location, say the center of thunderstorm, it must move up elsewhere, say the trailing edge of the thunderstorm The same is true for land, albeit on a much longer time scale. The Azores plateau is at a three way hinge between the mid-Atlantic ridge. Press down on North America and Europe, and the plateau would bob up like a cork. Remove the pressure and the plateau will be sucked down. As further evidence, core samples taken from the plateau contain minerals that could only have formed in open air within the last 100,000 years.
Plato wrote about more so about tbs center island it wad the capitol city called Poisieda all the other islands were submerged before and it is a lost continent not a lost city only posueda is now surfacing the rest is buried forever.
Ya man. I think sections of the thinner ocean crust could rapidly drop in large sections, sucked down in effect due to high stress continental rebound and magma displacement. Give and take.
@@MatApocalypse THIS is what the Internet was made for. Get millions of minds with open sourced data solving one problem at a time. Congrats. Any plans of visiting the Islands?
@@christorres348 Definitely going to visit, I wanted to go this year, but I have a lot of planning to do, so it will likely be next year. There's a lot I want to see, but it will take a lot of preparation as I will need to do a lot of island hopping. Flights from the UK are inexpensive, island hopping is only about 20 Euros each way (so long as you take the ferry). Not all ferries run all year round, so the best time to visit is May to September.
@@MatApocalypse have you considered the Gobekli Tepe comets to be part of the Taurid meteor shower? They occur each year in late October early November when the sun is in Libra. Fun fact, I am Puerto Rican and the local taino myths include a great flood where people had to hide in caves.
My grandmother was from the Azores and always told me that that was the location of Atlantis. She also told me that there were things under the ground there that people have never witnessed before.
Your grandmother is partially correct. The Azores were ruled by/named after Azaes--one of the ten kings of Atlantis. The Azores were a colony/rest stop for Atlantean sailors riding the trade winds on the return trip from the Americas. The capital of Atlantis is the Richat Structure in Mauritania, Africa. Cadiz/Gades, Spain was ruled by another Atlantean king: Gadeirus. The Azores are a kingdom of Atlantis, just not the capital.
I absolutely agree. There’s plenty pointing that directions d has been for a while now but when everyone started looking literally everywhere else it’s became more than a joke to most and was considered new age lunacy.

The Azores were not the capital, nor the continent of Atlantis. The Azores were an island, subordinate kingdom of Atlantis, named after/ruled by Azaes of Atlantis. The Azores were a rest stop for Atlanteans returning from America back to the capital of Atlantis in W. Africa via the trade winds on reed boats (thenupa.) Spiral solar calendars (carved into rock) are all over W. Europe/Africa and the E. Americas. These spiral solar calendars indicated when it was safe to sail in order to avoid hurricane season.
You are partially correct. The Azores are obviously not the famed Atlantis. They are the remnants or what remained after the cataclysm that destroyed this great civilization. These remnants were later discovered and settled by the Portuguese. They remain so til this day and hopefully many more to come.@@Matt-gg2cq
VERY convincing and well done! I had always thought Atlantis must have been in what's now the gulf of Mexico based on Platos description and the underwater cities there but there has been a lots of evidence coming out that makes the Azores look like the best candidate
Congratulations not just on a very interesting and plausible hypothesis, but on the obviously painstakingly prepared research to back it up. Given the current hunger for "esoteric" information and the willingness of communications companies to test the reality of hypotheses like this, wouldn't it be wonderful if some REPUTABLE company would back an adequately-planned expedition to follow up on your ideas? As underwater technology improves and curiosity rises, this would make an amazing documentary (made considerably less expensive than some because you've already done all the research!) Kudos!
Great research! I first came across the Azores as a possible Atlantis site about 20 years ago. It was just someone’s musings back then, but you have done an excellent job piecing together this info 👍🏻
Appreciate you putting this together including Plato's account. I've found other accounts but none as well organized. Many thanks - looking forward to following your other videos.
Excellent work. I personally find it very convincing. Unlike other theories of the location, when it comes to the Azores, every aspect of the story lines up.
Yes, absolutely fascinating! You are really onto the real truth here:) Thank you so very much for making and uploading this wonderful presentation:) I simply know you are totally correct in your findings and evaluation:)
@@MatApocalypse If I was to say I was there at various points during the vast and rich hidden history which was the Atlantean Civilisation, going way, way, way back and encompassing all of the three main volcanic catastrophes which hit the main Atlantean mainland over many hundreds of thousands of years, it would probably and understandably raise a few eyebrows in disbelief. All I can honestly say is that various versions of my soul did embody and take incarnations during these varied times of Atlantis. The last remaining section of which you are referring to here in your wonderful video presentation is the island states which made up Poseidon (The later day Atlantis) prior to that there was the original city of the Golden Gates, with its concentric circle arrangement. This was the true original Atlantis, the city located 15 degrees north of the equator. It predated the copy of the Concentric Circle City, which was located on the Poseidon Atlantis, by many hundreds of thousands of years. Again many thanks for your wonderful video presentation. Brings tears to the eyes to those few who truly remember.😊
just adding this in there , recently they have found a pyramid under water between 2 of the islands, fisherman spotted it with underwater radar or something of that nature.
@@ancientbutstillhere6570 No, 10 kingdoms... aka countries. This is a continent... that means a major part of the world. People are just confused with the description of the disaster affecting 1 city, not even near the ocean.
@@frosty6960 we have maps for the areas of the earth's crust that were that were affected by the isostatic depression/rebound that occurred after the ice age? Where would I find them? I'd love to look at them.
@@BushrodJenkins Try googling. Geology isnt magic. Now answer me this. Why, when looking for a CONTINENT, would you search on the bottom of the ocean ... right next to a CONTINENT
Considering an earthquake in Nepal made some of the mountains sink/lose height by some ~6cm from subduction, yet Everest grows annually some ~2cm from adduction from the Indian plate pushing - The fabled disastrous possible earthquake that sank the city could be such one event - (as well as either the sea-levels risings some ~400m to what it is presently/younger dryas extinction event cerca purportedly around the time Atlantis is said to exist. On a side note, a ~14,000 yr old 'ice age' village discovered in BC on lands and from stories passed down to the decedents of the band, of an area of land unfrozen when most of the continent was under (a) glacial ice sheet(s) - so civilised communities definitely existed longer than is currently accepted.) - great stuff btw!
(also Doggerland, when the British Isles were connected to mainland Europe was around then - the vast lands mentioned too across the Atlantic would've been when Greenland too was connected to the American continent. As well as of course, the South East Asia landmass and the Australian continent being joined to Asia. A lot of academia is blinded by the idea that the topography isn't the same then as how we see it now.)
If you look at a graphic relief World Map you can see a piece of land underwater that's round and closer to the surface than the surrounding floor, there's no other place around it and it matches Plato's description exactly, Great Presentation!
Your analysis is unique and fascinating. I've never heard anything about Atlantis reasoned quite as well, let alone leading to such precise conclusions. That a candidate site should be found exactly where Plato described it and corresponding to the dimensions he recorded can't be sheer coincidence. One suggestion: It might be helpful to overlay a few known geographic features as you zoom in from the aerial, continental view to the closer harbor view. It is difficult to see it in my mind's eye, but if you could superimpose San Francisco Bay, for example, over the Atlantean harbor, it would be tremendously useful. Since you have readers from all over the globe, I'd use several different references, such as Hong Kong, Puget Sound, San Diego's Mission Bay, and others. I'm sure you can think of many. Thanks for all your good work.
Ignatuis Donnelly also has some views on the location of Atlantis based on Plato's narrative, situating it in what was called Dophin's Ridge back in the day, suggesting a yet much larger area that could have been submerged. Maybe this is why the Portuguese government has extended its free economic zone of that area to over 600 kilometres around the Azores islands to be able to drill and mine, according to its own sources. Very interesting video, we really seem to need to take a closer look at our history, what is often called a myth makes one wonder taking a closer look at it. Thank you.
I've always thought it was here myself, not based on evidence although there is some has you have found, but more of a feeling. It's interesting to note the former inhabitants of nearby Canary Islands (called the Guanches by the Spanish explores) were noted to be of great height (6 to 8ft on average) and faired haired & skinned which in that area is unusual. Though it's not so unusual though when you dig into the history of the adjacent regions. There are legends of a similar looking people occupying the Atlas Mountains of north Africa since ancient times. The celts of Europe also fit this description along with a some of the Germanic tribes. When Caesar questioned the Gaulish Celts about where they came from they said their ancestors came from the sea up the rivers to Gaul (France). They were also of a similar size appearance too compared to the 5ft romans eating mostly bread all day. The Spanish Celts, British Celts, and Irish Celts all had similar origin stories and were similar sized. I'm not suggesting the Celts came from the west but that the people who later became Celtized by the influence of the Hallstatt culture did. Also, the Egyptians who said to have originated from a much older culture have stories about their Gods arriving down the Nile by boat from the sea. Much of the upper class of Egypt was discovered to have red hair, and upon genetic study of mummies, a link was found between then and central/western European Celts who also had red hair. In Greek Myth Aphrodite who said to have come from the sea also has red hair. The Atlanteans were noted to be militant, warlike, and excelled at all military feats. They were also described as being very spiritual as well. All the people who have these myths about people arriving from the sea and founding their cultures were all martial, of great height (or a few individuals were at one time), and were very spiritual. In edition if you consider that most of the ocean was bound up in the ice sheets back then, and the possibility that those sheets would have possibly connected with the northern tip of the island if it was in the Azores, then it's not hard to see how navigating the Atlantic back then would have been significantly easier. So much so that my opinion Proto European peoples, like the basques could have traveled by canoe, following the ice sheets than stumbled across the island. Being hunter gathers living off animals in both land and sea for most part this would have made them particularly robust physically. Add a little island dwarfism/gigantism and a small population of hunter gathers could potentially shoot up from 5 - 6ft to 7 - 8ft. Additionally there are stories of red-haired giants in the Americas as well. They weren't that primitives either surprisingly according to natives and either warred with, aided, or traded with them at one time or another. My theory is that after changing physically due to the island geology/ecology for a few thousand years, they spread out in both directions of Atlantic attempting colonize the land the formerly covered by ice or maybe more habitable by its retreat. There may have been people there already, left over from the initial migrations of Proto European peoples out of Europe who followed the glaciers or coasts, traveling to multiple continents settling down. These people were probably too primitive to resist so were absorbed into their population along with natives from everywhere to Africa, Europe, Near East and the Americas. After the island sank due any number of factors, isolated population pockets on the islands or former colonies regressed technologically and culturally without support from the mother country, while places like Egypt prospered due to the intelligentsia fleeing there. Sorry for the monologue lol. This has always been a personal interest of mine. Obviously, this all theories and conjecture, but it’s interesting to think about.
1. "Gaul" literally translates: Foreigner(s) It is the ancient Germanic word that they used to describe the Celts (or any Foreigners). This descriptive was misunderstood by the Romans as the name of the people rather than a adjective. 2. Authentic Conjecture is underrated. The problem today is that mainstream, funded, scientists hide their conjecture as "science".
The Atlantean origin of the Guanches, the Basques and of the Berber People of the Atlas Mountains is somewhat obvious for geographical reasons, and more than plausible that of the Egyptian elite ( and also Sumerian) and the various branches of the Celts for many other reasons, some also anticipated by NA. Yet, though Atlantis had to have a representation of all the 4 original races, it was basically the center of the Red Race which at some point must have become overwhelmingly aggressive and forced the others to flee, so I'd see Celts and Sumerians-Egyptians as "white" eastbound migrations much long before Atlantis destruction. As to gigantism, the Atlantean time was unquestionably the age of giants, but I would not make this solely dependent on a carnivorous diet of wildlife; it would be a merely materialistic explanation of a modern kind. In the period under consideration, the cause due to a dramatic psychic imbalance - consequence of a break with the spiritual domain - had to be much more decisive and affect also the very balance of the earth's axis. It would therefore be more appropriate to link the origin of gigantism to the origin of cannibalism, as suggested by the myth of Pelops, according to which the gods, upon realizing that they were eating human flesh, "overturned the table ( i.e., the Earth's plane of revolution) in horror" , and consequently produced that sudden upheaval of plans that caused the great catastrophe. After all, the Cyclopes, in Greek mythology, were cannibals. In this context, the portrayal of the European peoples as "too primitive" gatherers and hunters applies best to the early phase of the post-catastrophe period, but for the Atlantean period it contrasts with Plato's account, which describes the Greeks at the height of their civilization as allies of the Egyptians against Atlantis.
@@horpakheret3447 My problem with the Solon story (Greece and Egypt being allies against Atlantis) is that Greece just simply didn't exist 11,000 years ago. It didn't even exist 4,000 years ago.
@@matthewstorer8236 this site gives as its goal the discovery of the city of Atlantis - and as a corollary of anything that may have relation to its empire elsewhere in the Atlantic - following to the letter the account of Plato, who reports that of Solon, who reports that of the Egyptian priests. Thus, it is the Egyptians who speak of Atlantis and of the Greeks of the Atlantean period - about which Plato's Greek contemporaries had forgotten everything - following their chronology, preserved uninterruptedly in the temples. According to your reasoning, which is that of the official historiography, in 11000 B.C. no civilization existed, so neither did Atlantis and the Egyptians.
@@horpakheret3447 Exactly my point. I'm sure fictional writing existed in Platos time. Besides, there were colossal disasters that could have given Plato a basis for the story like the eruption, earthquakes and tsunami associated with Thera. We simply don't know so any argument on Atlantis' existence is futile. I personally agree that there does seem to be some trace evidence of a progenitor civilization in the deep past.
Oh great! Now Iv'e got to watch a bunch more videos. This was a very convincing presentation. I've been a fan of the Richat Structure which is 2,000' too high which has a greater appeal than 6,000' too deep. But you make a good point. The final proof will be finding the right artifacts which is extremely hard to do in either case. I think someone is looking to find the pillar at the temple of Sais. That could be a big help.
Great work. I think you're definitely looking in the right place. I read in a more esoteric, fringe source (copyrighted July of 1976) that there were two Atlantises. Greater Atlantis in the Azores area and Lesser Atlantis around Santorini. Greater Atlantis was destroyed by an asteroid which broke into two large parts punching holes into the earth crust under the Atlantic along with thousands of smaller fragments, about 11,540 years ago. Lesser Atlantis was destroyed when Santorini's volcano exploded some 5,500 years ago.
Hello i was prompted to view this after hearing your chat with the Grimerica boys. very interesting work sir it is certainly intriguing data you are presenting as you know Randall Carlson has been studying this for many years and has accumulated a great deal of data i really think you need to put your heads together on this i think between you you could really advance the study of Atlantis and our true origins as possibly survivors of a global catastrophe following the YD well done and every success in your further work.
I recall seeing a movie on the lost continent of Atlantis, fictional of course, when I was a kid in the 1960's. It featured a highly advanced and technologically astute culture. From the bits and pieces, I recall, the continent was ultimately destroyed by a laser type nuclear technology they developed themselves. A price paid for human hubris. The film was both impressive and quite memorable. From that time on, being born on the Azores, I always had the sense that the Azores were a magical place. The movie just reinforced what I believed. In my mind the Azores are the remnants of that once awe-inspiring civilization. Logically and geographically, it makes perfect sense. It could also be just a grand myth. Only further study will reveal the truth. Til then we can all dream.
The way I see it, there are two possibilities: 1/ The Azores Plateau or 2/ Plato used it as a metaphorical device and it wasn't literally true. I WANT 1 to be right, but until greater evidence is produced 2 holds the cards. Not because I think it's definitely right, but because it's the one that needs less explaining with all things being equal. I hope time will tell. Given the way that the Plateau falls away so steeply to the east, I don't think it would theoretically be necessary to have the city's bordering sea be inland.
My thoughts showing the rings, is how uneven it looks. But your explanation of sediment accounts for some. I imagine plate movement and landslides would account for more of it. Unfortunately, that would also bury most or all physical evidence that a submersible could find.
9:23 ... the story actually talks about this. You remember the old priest talking to Solon about cycles? And how everyone except egypt failed in preserving the ancient knowledge. So the next humans discovering it after a catastrophe gets a kickstart. 10:15 So a continent separating the pacific and the atlantic .. bigger than north africa and the mid east combined. Wonder what it could be :D
It's not in America as for some reason Americans always think they are getting left out. And if you listen to the video it explains what the size of Libya and Asia meant back then as ancient people seen it different to us. Atlantis was either Azores or Canary Islands when there was more land all evidence points to this not America or the Bahamas. i mean Americans think Jesus went there the ark of the covenant is there it's insanity. Except the facts. The Aztects Mayans and Incas were in America not bloody Atlantis why do you think we call it the Atlantic Ocean.
@@mattysavage2800 Well, im not american if that what you are implying. For some reason, even tho the opposite has been proven, people think the americas were unknown. About the size, that is seriously underplaying the descriptiion and their understanding. "The americas" means north and south, and has nothing to do wth USA. Dont even get me started on the azores or canary island bullshit. Thats just insulting the ancient egyptians.
@@frosty6960 It's insulting the Ancient Egyptions by saying America and of course I know you meant north and south. Theres more evidence that matches the list than for any parts of America.
I've always wondered Wether the sheer weight of the North American ice sheet covering the whole North of the US and Canada would have raised the edge of the continental plate right around the area of the azores. All that ice disappeared pretty quickly which would have caused the opposite edge of the plate right around the azores area to see a major drop in a relatively short amount of time. That and the huge rise in sea level could be exactly what went on to cause the sinking of a near continent sized land mass. We know that right now Scotland is experiencing a bounce back of sorts from the glacier that was weighing it down in the past. Scotland is nowhere near the edge of its continental plate though so its only experiencing a very slow upward movement.
Hi Cyberstar, thanks for watching my video and taking the time to write your well thought out comment. I still wonder if the melting of the North American ice sheet alone is enough to account for sinking the Azores Plateau by two thousand metres. Perhaps there were also bottom loading, isostatic interactions that we haven't taken into account yet. I will be presenting some ideas in episode 4, so stay tuned!
The ice melted from heat. 10 to 38 power ergs estimated. Carefully examine the shelf. Carved by water from existing rivers today. In florida caves under 100' (30 meters) of the ocean have clay pots, burned wood, artifacts of people. The Hopi described the event. Aborigines carved in stone, drew paintings in caves of it. As did others. In egypt at karnak the granite carved statues were melted on one side. See B Foerster works. SOMEONE moved 1000 plus Tonne rocks to build these things. It was not the romans. And level 8 hard rock isnt scratched by bronze tools. Core drilled holes exist still that only diamonds cut. How?
i imagine it would. consider the thickness of the American plate vs the oceanic plate. it would be like the difference between bending a phonebook vs bending a piece of aluminum foil.
Your analysis is fascinating. I've never heard anything about Atlantis reasoned quite as well, and leading to such precise conclusions. That a candidate site should be found exactly where Plato described it can't be sheer coincidence. One suggestion: I would find it helpful to overlay known geographic features over the candidate site as you zoom in from the aerial view to the harbor view. It is difficult to see it in my mind's eye, but if you could superimpose San Francisco Bay, for example, over the harbor, it would be tremendously useful. Since you have readers from all over the globe, I'd use several different references, such as Hong Kong harbor, Puget Sound, and others. I'm sure you can think of many. Thanks for all your good work.
Amazing find! What needs to be established is the age of the various fossil finds in the core samples taken all those years ago. That would give an accurate timeline for the Azores micro-continents' time period above sea level. My interest is in the Solutrean Hypothesis and the greater possibility of western migration via the Azores Plateau being in proximity to the maximum extent of ice sheets. Excellent work sir!
Cheers. I agree, more core samples need to be studied in detail. Given how important the Azores triple junction is to Geology, there's a shocking lack of physical Geological research that takes place in the region.
I've had flashes of memories from that time period. Given the small size of the human population at that time. Very few people would have those kind of memories.. But know you're not alone, brother. Many souls started their life cycles in "Atlantis". Some of us can still faintly remember those times.
Congratulations. Nice video. I wrote a book "The code of Hathor deciphered" that explains the reason/origine of the world flood. As Plato said, there were many great disasters, like for instance meteorites, but there is one recurring disaster which is the greatest of all. This is the precession disaster. In my book, I explain that the precession is actually the orbit of our solar system, and because of this orbit, the Earth axis will shift eacht period of half precession or 12,888 years, which of course creates a world flood and the sinking of Atlantis in 1 day and 1 night. I really recommend to read it because it's so well prooved that it amazes.

I was born in the Azores on the island of Terceira. This is common knowledge of the Azorians we know these nine islands are the mountain tops of the city of Atlantis on the continent of Appalachia. Atlantis is a city,not a continent.
@nocommonsense2000. Of course you would know better that someone who was born there. Dude get a life and a clue. Atlantis was a city on the continent of Appalachia.
The Billy Meier extraterrestrial contact case talks in quite a bit of detail about Atlantis. Your location of Atlantis is correct according to the contact notes. Atlantis was a great technological, economic and cultural superpower in the Antediluvian period. That advanced civilisation and empire lasted 18,000 years.
Dan X to Great opinion. I applaud your knowledge. I think that we will definitely find "that" on the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean if opinions beyond our specialized fields are cast, including those who posted on RUclips this time. I pray the good fight. 素晴らしいご意見です｡私は貴方の知識に肯き拍手を送ります｡ 今回のRUclipsへの投稿者を含め､専門領域を超えて意見が投じられれば必ず大西洋の海底に私達は"それ"を見つけ出すと思います｡ 健闘を祈ります｡
On some points I agree with him, on others I disagree. The viewers of this channel ought to check out "Randall Carlson's Kosmographia"t. It is a series 9 episodes long and leaves little doubt, becoming almost unrefutable as to the ancient location of Atlantis.
“This power came forth out of the Atlantic Ocean, for in those days the Atlantic was navigable; and there was an island situated in front of the straits which are by you called the Pillars of Heracles” - Plato, from Timaeus If it was on the other side of the pillars it would be on the land?
That 3-5000 meters of ocean rise would explain the interesting flood story of every culture as a coincidence and also why already explained many older archeological sites we haven’t been to simply because the ocean over took them
I am before Randall Carlson even said it was that what is the remnant of the Azores was probably where Atlantis if it did exist was a junta cated it's very strange because if you actually sit down and try to do background information on the islands there's not a whole lot written about them even from Antiquity which is kind of strange I've had a few friends goes and visit these islands and it's almost not littered with any historical sites or antiquities their own records don't seem to go back much further than Spanish and Portuguese colonialism and to think the islands were there this tire time from the classical. In before so it does make you wonder who was inhabiting those islands and certainly before the plateau was sunken
I figured the Azores where the remains of Atlantis or the area of where Atlantis would've been on the mid Atlantic ride. And the Guanche people of the Canaries, the Berbers of North Africa and the Basque of Spain where all the long lost descendants of Antlanteans. Possibly.
if you follow the river channels away from the continents they extend to at least 15k feet below sea level. This area around the Azores is only 7k ft below sea level.
Yeah I feel like the richat structure is definitely Atlantis. It shows that a giant wave once ran down it, and it is covered in salt. It has mountains to the north, plains on each side, and an opening at the south, just like Plato’s description. If you measure the richat structure, it is the exact same size as what Plato said about Atlantis. The richat structure has 2 rings of land and 3 of what would use to be filled with water. (Just like Plato said). Also on the father of history’s map, it says the word “Atlantes” where the richat structure would be. But I guess the azores could be one of the other kingdoms that make up the empire of Atlantis, since the one with 3 rings of water and two of land, is just the capital of Atlantis. Anyway this is just my opinion. I recommend watching bright insights videos on it. Also btw, Atlantis was said to be destroyed 12 thousand years ago. 12 thousand years ago is also said to be when sea levels rose a lot, and Africa started to change and it started to become a desert. Coincidence, I think not. Also non fossilised whale bones have been found in Mauritania meaning it was once under water. And also, Atlantis was said to have gold copper and iron in the region it was in. Mauritania has god copper and iron. Also, elephants were said to be in Atlantis, and elephants are still in Mauritania to this day. Also, Atlantis was said to be coloured mainly Red, White, and black. Red white and black stones have been found in the richat structure, along with old man made objects like, perfectly spherical balls.
Need to search for it, but saved a link that shows how measures of the Richat structure are much bigger than those given by Plato for the city of Atlantis, so nothing like the "exact size" of it ! Anyway, no doubt Mauritania was an Atlantis colony, and the Richat just an open pit stone quarry.
@@swigglyforce5215 You have edited the reply, but I still can see you were asking why I was still arguing ... ... and so on: because the Richat structure is the latest hoax invented to capsize the truth set by Plato, Socrates, Solon, the priests of Sais, and you seemed felling a bit too much for it. There are only two options: either you accept Plato's "truth" to the letter, which is what "Apocalypse" does for its geographic location, or you get lost behind whatever IMO you may like best. In any case, Atlantis, just like the other 4 Pillars of Heaven, is not the Original Island, but one of its substitutes in a much later and intermediate period. Losing the primordial island is like falling out of the tree house, hitting your head and losing your memory, and this is what you call "getting a life".
Its the most noticeable. Except for one issue. While richat has alot of evidence. Itd have to have sank then rose immensely. . All of africa would have dramatic elevation shifts. No one has mentioned?! The richat also. Is not within a sea with an ocean beyond it. Plato writes about north america. And upon the other side. Being asia. That atlantis was capable of impacting all continents. Except africa. Is never mentioned. Africa has a large discernible structure of water eroded lines. Suggesting north africa was greatly covered in water. Offering atlantis the ability to avoid sailing to the southern africa. Horn. Straight to egypt. N asia then after.
Aren't there at least 15 more enclosures still to be excavated at Gobekli Tepe? Possibly and probably older than what has been discovered? I'm only half way through the first episode but needed to see what others thoughts were. I've always been curious. Props to Matt at AA for recommending this channel.
Thanks for this video. Unfortunately, you do not use the information given by Plato on the size of the plain in the southern portion of the island of ~550 by ~350km, surrounded by a massive ditch ~30 deep by 185m wide, in turn (partly?) surrounded by hills/mountains. May that not be now the northwestern corner of the African Plate at some 2000mBSL? This would relocate Atlantis (city) much further South than where you have it?
I was convinced that the Eye of the Sahara was Atlantis until I watched some of Randall Carlson's videos. The Richat structure is too big. Randall points out that the Azores is a much more likely candidate. When you consider that the Atlantic was much lower during the last ice age, it makes sense. Something big happened, comet or asteroid, that caused a large surge of water which washed Atantis away and the remains are still under the ocean.
I do discuss potential links between the Azores and the Richat Structure in episodes 8, 9 & 10 of my Atlantis series: 08: ruclips.net/video/q-fug_jzkxc/видео.html 09: ruclips.net/video/whlNklXOmlo/видео.html 10: ruclips.net/video/pNiKi-aIu1c/видео.html
Its at the azores but ur scale is to small.... U have to imagine land big enough to block the jet stream and cause ice âge ... Its bigger ... And plato also talks about a huge poseidon statue. At the middle... I found it ! Oh yeah egyptian old written words from THOT the Atlanta ... He cleary say that they escaped from the waters sailing towards the rising sun. 😬 To reach ankh Land egypt ! Wanna know where that statue ?.
From Ashgabat Turkmenistan to the center of Atlantis to the tip of the Washington Obelisk in D.C including the dome of National Capital building to the Sacramento CA. capital dome are all very very close the same 38 the parallel East to West alignment

If everyone could shut up about the richact structure and stop digging up their mums back garden in the Mediterranean. Watch this and jump down the next rabbit hole. Interesting stuff and with the proper mention of isostatic and eustatic tectonic movement, you really do connect a lot of the dots as every theory has not quite hit home for me because it always like yeah but this massive thing they mentioned has to be completely ignored, whereas this incorporates almost everything Plato / Solon mention.
@@MatApocalypse thanks! I'll check them out. I'm in the Azores right now and the scenery is quite impressive. Looks a bit like final fantasy from certain vantage points, like the remains of a broken land that sank into the ocean. Keep it up! ;)
Google Earth / Maps doesn't show a lot of high resolution bathymetric data. It could be as simple as not being able to get the rights from the various Oceanographic Institutions that survey the sea floor, there are a lot of them.
The bathymetric scan was performed at sea level, the resolution of the sonar from 1800 metres would be too low to pick this up clearly, not to mention that the entire site seems to be partially infilled by sediment. Really need to get down there or take a scan closer to the site with improved resolution.
@@unpackatlantisproject if you're interested in this feature (46km west of the Richat), you should talk to David Stig Hansen, he went to visit it when he explored the Richat: twitter.com/stigemup www.youtube.com/@stig
Agreed this is important knowledge you discovered here. Especially the part about Gobekli Tepe. Also, the Taurid meteor shower occurs when the sun is in Libra so maybe the comets are actually those. Do they match up with Orion or a Bull-like creature?
Can it flood again like during the Younger Dryas? It appears to be that all water levels were lowered during the Great Flood. Now water seems to be high. So can sea level rise that much more? Are we already near high tide? I’m not disputing anything wondering if anyone has thought about theoretical limits of sea level rise.
Google Earth only has limited bathymetric data, I'm guessing it has something to do with copyright or permissions? Try using the EMOD portal (the data isn't as clear as it once was, they are constantly updating and merging their datasets for a more complete picture of the sea floor. It looks like a few datasets have been merged right where my proposed location is, but you can still make it out pretty well): emodnet.ec.europa.eu/geoviewer/#!
I don't understand. The map you showed had Atlas listed in Western Africa. Right in the middle of Atlas is the Richat StructureThe ring structure here matches the descriptions given on Atlantis. The structure was once connected by water to the Atlantic ocean. If you were to sail to the Richat structure in those days, you would have to go beyond the Pillars of Hercules and then south to the opening water way that had once lead to the structure.
I also think the Richat is the best candidate so far. I think to many are caught up on "sank into the ocean" as meaning it had to be in the middle of it. Anyone navigating waters at that time (I feel) would have done so by following coast lines. I have been pouring over the Richat and found some pretty cool things.
The Richat structure is a very interesting location, especially the dimensions of the elevated plateau it sits upon. You should check out Jimmy on the Bright Insight channel, he's made some interesting videos on the Richat. This is also worth a watch: odysee.com/@TheLostHistoryChannelTKTC:0/Atlatis-and-the-Richat-Structure-(Skip-to-7-mins):9
@@MatApocalypse Its interesting indeed... from a geological perspective. Historical and archeological not so much. But its quite insulting to Solon and the ancient egyptians suggestings its Atlantis when they spent so much energy in explaining it isnt.
@@MatApocalypse Thanks for the reply and the link! It was actually a video of Jimmy's that got me interested in the first place. Honestly, we may never know where Atlantis lies. I think why I like the Richat is because at one time it would have been a beautiful place, and Atlantis or not, there is always history to be found EVERYWHERE.
@@frosty6960 lmao historical and archeological? Are you dumb? when talking abot the historical facts about the region, the first king was fucking atlas. Mauritamia's first king was Atlas...who was the king of atlantis. As far as archeological? We KNOW the area was once ocean. The sand of the sahara is oceanic sand. There are ripples created by ocean water. There is salt. there are oceanic animal bones. Literally everything in plato's description points to the richat structure being the city

Is bot true, is not true
Atlantis is neither the Azores or the Richat. The basis for the landmass is the Cycladic plateau, which would have made (most of) the Cyclades a single large island around 12,000 BCE. ...there are a couple scholarly papers on this.
I live in the azores and I belive that this island are part of Atlantis. In school they don't teach us about the origin of these island, we learn more about the main continent Portugal and the history of the português culture.. I always had a feeling that we are part of the Atlantis story.. Azores are the most natural, beautiful 9 island in the world.. Peace and love to all🏝️🌍🙏💜
The Azores are named after and were ruled by Azaes of Atlantis (one of the ten kings of Atlantis.) The capital of Atlantis is the Richat in Mauritania, Africa. The Azores were used as a place to rest and resupply during the return trip back across the Atlantic to Africa from Central America and the Caribbean. Atlanteans used the tradewinds to sail back and forth across the Atlantic and the Azores lie within the tradewinds on the return trip.
@@marijuanaman3757 You say that, yet etymology, Berber history & religion, Basque culture, geology, matches to Plato's account of Atlantis, science on the Younger Dryas, Egyptian religion, Greek mythology, Basque & Berber rare blood frequency, etc. refute your claim, some of which refute the seamount by several different above subjects cross-corroborating the Richat as the capital of Atlantis. Sorry, but your assumption-based, uninspected hypothesis fails in the face of scientific method, where the Richat hypothesis is close to a mathematical certainty. Experts on Atlantis know the three definitions of "Atlantis" as well as what the word "Atlantis" originally meant.
Experts on Atlantis have read the majority of or all of Plato's details about Atlantis and compare all of Plato's details to a given theory. The best experts use scientific method to weed out the impossible.
People who don't know what they are talking about take a few of their favorite details that Plato wrote about Atlantis (a word that they can't define and thus do not understand) or the commonly-assumed, incorrect, pop-culture narrative about Atlantis that Plato never actually wrote and make ignorant assumptions, which they are often wrong about. These people routinely can't process facts because they are closed-minded, lack critical-thinking skills and are in love with their own pet theory, which is almost always wrong. The reason most people pick a pet theory about Atlantis and get it wrong is because they really don't know what they're looking for in the first place and wouldn't know Atlantis if they found it by accident since they don't know what "Atlantis" means or the details that identify it. If a person didn't know what a cat was but knew that a cat had fur, then anything from a woolly mammoth, to a hyena, to a dog, to a rat could be identified as a "cat." This is the method that most people use to attempt to find Atlantis and it is a comically inept and completely unscientific approach to the subject of finding Atlantis.
@@marijuanaman3757 I don't have to cope. I have data that proves my stance, whether either of us like it or not.
Interesting tactic for you to argue with insults and your feelings, instead of data.
Your delusion is unfortunate. If you can't understand me or Plato then it would seem that Atlantis is too difficult of a subject for you. A pastime that doesn't require thinking, such as watching TV, seems to be the level of intellectual interaction that you are capable of.
If you actually read and remembered any of Plato's details except your favorite one or two, you'd have a chance to know something about Atlantis. Your hypothesis is based upon ignorance and doesn't align with Plato's writing on Atlantis.
Plato wrote that Atlantis' capital island was on a lake/inland body of water, which the Richat was between 15,000--8,000 years ago, according to radio-carbon dating. The capital island of Atlantis was never on the ocean, according to Plato's original writings in Ancient Greek. You have been misled to believe that Atlantis' capital was on the ocean by an incompetent translation of what Plato first wrote and an assumption that "sea" always means "ocean" when it obviously doesn't. Plato wrote that Atlantis was " covered by water" and subsided into a lake, not an ocean. Again, Atlantis never sank into an ocean, according to Plato. A continent that sank wouldn't leave Plato's "impassable barrier of mud to voyagers sailing hence (from Atlantis' capital) to any part of the ocean... caused by the subsidence of the island (of Atlantis, meaning the capital island, not the continent of Atlantis that is classically shown as Africa upside down)" because ocean currents would wash away mud quickly but a mega-tsunami like the one indicated by Bright Insight and confirmed by Oz Geographic that swept over the width of modern Mauritania (where the Richat is located) within the last 12,000 years certainly could have deposited Plato's "mud" that prevented sailing from the lake around the Richat or by the nearby Tamanrasset River to the ocean.
W. Africa doesn't need an ocean running through it to be Atlantis. Read any scientific studies about the last African humid period, and you will learn that a significant portion of the Sahara was savanna. The Sahara had massive rivers and mega-lakes as little as 5,000 years ago. The Richat itself was a lake at the time of Atlantis and had the nearby Tamanrasset River running to the ocean and could be traveled both ways (from inland to the coast and from the coast inland) becuae of the level of its slope.
"Atlantis" means "Atlas," Atlantis' king that Atlantis is named after. Atlantis' capital, the Richat, is in the Atlas Region next to mountains named Atlas (no not the Atlas Mountains that everyone knows about,) with a tribe of Atlases living nearby (attested to by Herodotus) and near the Atlas Ocean that was named from Africa's West Coast (according to etymology) where Atlantis' capital is. But you'd know that Plato wrote that Atlantis' land and nearby ocean were named after Atlas if you'd actually read Plato's writings on Atlantis and knew anything about the 50+ criteria for Atlantis that Plato listed, apart from a meager couple of details.
Richat has verifiable evidence of Plato's details for Atlantis: elephants (bones, cave art,) concentric rings of land and sea (15,000-8,000 years ago) in correct number/sequence surrounding a central island with a freshwater spring, water exit to the south, massive collection of red white and black rocks, beautiful mountains sheltering it to the north, abundance of gold in the region, proximity to highest twin birth rate in the world (Atlantis was ruled by five sets of twins,) center of central island is 50 stadia distant from the lake/inland water body, 2000 by 3000 stadia plain (with natural landmarks) that descends toward ocean, etc.
The Azores are named after Azaes of Atlantis, not Atlas. The capital of Atlantis is named after Atlas. The Azores were a colony of the Atlantean Empire, just not part of the continent and certainly not the capital. You'd probably know that too if you weren't so closed-minded and ignorant. The Azores are past Gibraltar, an island surrounded by the Atlantic and named after one of the 9 subordinate kings of Atlantis. That is where the Azores similarity to Atlantis' capital and continent ends because the Azores have no other details that match Plato's description of Atlantis. Every other similarity that the Azores supposedly had relies on complete imagination and zero tangible evidence. If there were more solid evidence for the Azores, they could compete with the Richat.
The Azores has a less than 10% match rate to Plato's criteria for Atlantis. The Richat has an over 90% match rate to Plato's criteria for Atlantis. If Carlson had a lot of objectively-verifiable evidence to support his hypothesis, he might have a case. Sadly, Carlson's case is 90+% imagination and less than 10% objective facts.
I'd suggest using scientific method to vet your hypothesis before posting uninspected theories or at least be open-minded enough to consider any hypothesis with better matches to Plato's description of Atlantis.
I like Carlson. He has had many good ideas and I commend him for challenging ignorant dogma in academia. Unfortunately, Carlson is wrong in this case. Like you, he is ignoring a lot of relevant information about the criteria that Plato described Atlantis as having, is using tunnel vision to focus on a few data points rather than the extensive criteria for Atlantis and is in love with an idea that is widely considered impossible/improbable in the scientific community (glaciers raising the mid Atlantic ridge out of the ocean.) It certainly is an imaginative idea. As brilliant as he usually is, Carlson is being fairly bone-headed about Atlantis. You can't come in with a "weaksauce" case of less than 10% match to Plato's criteria for Atlantis and then ignore a match of over 90% to Plato's criteria and expect to be taken seriously.
The Richat hypothesis is mostly facts that objectively match Plato's criteria for Atlantis, supplemented with plausible guesswork that matches Plato's criteria for Atlantis. Local culture, other subjects and scientific studies corroborate this theory.
The Azores hypothesis is mostly guesswork and imagination. Most of the scientific community refutes the mid Atlantic ridge claim. Only a couple of objective facts match the Azores to Plato's criteria for Atlantis. Etymology and Berber culture argue that the Azores are not the capital island of Atlantis.
@@marijuanaman3757 Your statement is totally incorrect except fot the fact that the Sahara was not an ocean in the last 50k+ years. It's a shame that you aren't aware of the plethora of information that makes my statement a fact. It is also a shame that you have resorted to personal attacks because you are so misinformed and do not like my facts. I don't need to cope. Facts prove my position, whether either of us like it or not.

Randall Carson talked about the post glacial rebound on a Joe Rogan podcast, and how it would have affected the mid-Atlantic ridge. The land under the North American ice cap was pressed into the crust. Likewise northern Europe and the British Isles. In Canada today today the center of that depression is still rising at 18mm, but of course it would have risen much faster shortly after the ice was removed, likely by a comet impact at 12,900 BCE. I am a pilot. Pilots learn that if air is moving downwards in one location, say the center of thunderstorm, it must move up elsewhere, say the trailing edge of the thunderstorm The same is true for land, albeit on a much longer time scale. The Azores plateau is at a three way hinge between the mid-Atlantic ridge. Press down on North America and Europe, and the plateau would bob up like a cork. Remove the pressure and the plateau will be sucked down. As further evidence, core samples taken from the plateau contain minerals that could only have formed in open air within the last 100,000 years.
I listened to the same podcast. VERY interesting stuff.
Plato wrote about more so about tbs center island it wad the capitol city called Poisieda all the other islands were submerged before and it is a lost continent not a lost city only posueda is now surfacing the rest is buried forever.
Ya man. I think sections of the thinner ocean crust could rapidly drop in large sections, sucked down in effect due to high stress continental rebound and magma displacement. Give and take.
If you haven't listened to it yet, Randall's "Kosmographia" podcast goes into depth on this issue in its early episodes.
Bro discovered the mystery of the universe and put it in RUclips. Thank you!
My pleasure!
@@MatApocalypse THIS is what the Internet was made for. Get millions of minds with open sourced data solving one problem at a time. Congrats. Any plans of visiting the Islands?
@@christorres348 Definitely going to visit, I wanted to go this year, but I have a lot of planning to do, so it will likely be next year. There's a lot I want to see, but it will take a lot of preparation as I will need to do a lot of island hopping. Flights from the UK are inexpensive, island hopping is only about 20 Euros each way (so long as you take the ferry). Not all ferries run all year round, so the best time to visit is May to September.
@@MatApocalypse have you considered the Gobekli Tepe comets to be part of the Taurid meteor shower? They occur each year in late October early November when the sun is in Libra. Fun fact, I am Puerto Rican and the local taino myths include a great flood where people had to hide in caves.
My grandmother was from the Azores and always told me that that was the location of Atlantis. She also told me that there were things under the ground there that people have never witnessed before.
Fascinating, why did she think that?
And things under the ground like what?
If no one ever witnessed it, how did she know about it?
My grandmother always told me that snow white was black and after to so many years finally I got to see snow white and she was black.
I Believe her. I heard there is a inner earth civilization that lives there, Pretty Amazing!
Your grandmother is partially correct. The Azores were ruled by/named after Azaes--one of the ten kings of Atlantis. The Azores were a colony/rest stop for Atlantean sailors riding the trade winds on the return trip from the Americas. The capital of Atlantis is the Richat Structure in Mauritania, Africa. Cadiz/Gades, Spain was ruled by another Atlantean king: Gadeirus.
The Azores are a kingdom of Atlantis, just not the capital.
I'm convinced that Atlantis was in the Azores.
If any one is serious about actually finding Atlantis, they would be looking there.
Or the serious ones already know and have already done the science quietly.
I absolutely agree. There’s plenty pointing that directions d has been for a while now but when everyone started looking literally everywhere else it’s became more than a joke to most and was considered new age lunacy.
I absolutely agree. There’s plenty pointing that directions d has been for a while now but when everyone started looking literally everywhere else it’s became more than a joke to most and was considered new age lunacy.
The Azores were not the capital, nor the continent of Atlantis. The Azores were an island, subordinate kingdom of Atlantis, named after/ruled by Azaes of Atlantis. The Azores were a rest stop for Atlanteans returning from America back to the capital of Atlantis in W. Africa via the trade winds on reed boats (thenupa.) Spiral solar calendars (carved into rock) are all over W. Europe/Africa and the E. Americas. These spiral solar calendars indicated when it was safe to sail in order to avoid hurricane season.
You are partially correct. The Azores are obviously not the famed Atlantis. They are the remnants or what remained after the cataclysm that destroyed this great civilization. These remnants were later discovered and settled by the Portuguese. They remain so til this day and hopefully many more to come.@@Matt-gg2cq
VERY convincing and well done! I had always thought Atlantis must have been in what's now the gulf of Mexico based on Platos description and the underwater cities there but there has been a lots of evidence coming out that makes the Azores look like the best candidate
Congratulations not just on a very interesting and plausible hypothesis, but on the obviously painstakingly prepared research to back it up. Given the current hunger for "esoteric" information and the willingness of communications companies to test the reality of hypotheses like this, wouldn't it be wonderful if some REPUTABLE company would back an adequately-planned expedition to follow up on your ideas? As underwater technology improves and curiosity rises, this would make an amazing documentary (made considerably less expensive than some because you've already done all the research!) Kudos!
Yes! Talk to James Cameron (the film director and more) about doing an expedition. He supports these things. His focus is underwater finding.
Got me convinced this might actually be it. I've never heard such a compelling argument
Thank you!
Congratulations! 👏🏼👏🏼
You've really nailed it. I always felt the Azores was the remnants of Atlantis. You've just proved it beyond any doubt.
Great research! I first came across the Azores as a possible Atlantis site about 20 years ago. It was just someone’s musings back then, but you have done an excellent job piecing together this info 👍🏻
Thanks for watching.
Remarkable work! Thanks for sharing your findings.
Appreciate you putting this together including Plato's account. I've found other accounts but none as well organized. Many thanks - looking forward to following your other videos.
Thanks for watching!
Very interesting and informative. Keep up the good work!
Thanks so much for your positive feedback. I will be sure to check out your channel. It looks like you've got some interesting content.
This is such a wonderful collection of primary sources on the matter. Great video!

I thought I would start at the beginning. Excellent. You do not disappoint. Thank you.
Thank you for sharing. Interesting great work.
Excellent work. I personally find it very convincing. Unlike other theories of the location, when it comes to the Azores, every aspect of the story lines up.
Very interesting and an excellent presentation. Thank you for sharing!
You have done the lords literal work. Good work son.
Yes, absolutely fascinating! You are really onto the real truth here:) Thank you so very much for making and uploading this wonderful presentation:) I simply know you are totally correct in your findings and evaluation:)

@@MatApocalypse If I was to say I was there at various points during the vast and rich hidden history which was the Atlantean Civilisation, going way, way, way back and encompassing all of the three main volcanic catastrophes which hit the main Atlantean mainland over many hundreds of thousands of years, it would probably and understandably raise a few eyebrows in disbelief. All I can honestly say is that various versions of my soul did embody and take incarnations during these varied times of Atlantis. The last remaining section of which you are referring to here in your wonderful video presentation is the island states which made up Poseidon (The later day Atlantis) prior to that there was the original city of the Golden Gates, with its concentric circle arrangement. This was the true original Atlantis, the city located 15 degrees north of the equator. It predated the copy of the Concentric Circle City, which was located on the Poseidon Atlantis, by many hundreds of thousands of years. Again many thanks for your wonderful video presentation. Brings tears to the eyes to those few who truly remember.😊
you just blew my mind 🤯 looking forward for part 2 😮
just adding this in there , recently they have found a pyramid under water between 2 of the islands, fisherman spotted it with underwater radar or something of that nature.
Sudden rise in sea levels coupled with isostatic depression gives at least a plausible mechanism to describe how Atlantis might have submerged.
We have maps for this. The Azores is not an area affected. Besides its topography is horribly wrong compared to the story.
@@frosty6960 yes but not in afrika. There were ten cities. This was one perhaps.
@@ancientbutstillhere6570 No, 10 kingdoms... aka countries. This is a continent... that means a major part of the world. People are just confused with the description of the disaster affecting 1 city, not even near the ocean.
@@frosty6960 we have maps for the areas of the earth's crust that were that were affected by the isostatic depression/rebound that occurred after the ice age? Where would I find them? I'd love to look at them.

Awesome work. Thanks to Matt of AA I'm your subscriber now. Best wishes.
Considering an earthquake in Nepal made some of the mountains sink/lose height by some ~6cm from subduction, yet Everest grows annually some ~2cm from adduction from the Indian plate pushing - The fabled disastrous possible earthquake that sank the city could be such one event - (as well as either the sea-levels risings some ~400m to what it is presently/younger dryas extinction event cerca purportedly around the time Atlantis is said to exist. On a side note, a ~14,000 yr old 'ice age' village discovered in BC on lands and from stories passed down to the decedents of the band, of an area of land unfrozen when most of the continent was under (a) glacial ice sheet(s) - so civilised communities definitely existed longer than is currently accepted.) - great stuff btw!
(also Doggerland, when the British Isles were connected to mainland Europe was around then - the vast lands mentioned too across the Atlantic would've been when Greenland too was connected to the American continent. As well as of course, the South East Asia landmass and the Australian continent being joined to Asia. A lot of academia is blinded by the idea that the topography isn't the same then as how we see it now.)
If you look at a graphic relief World Map you can see a piece of land underwater that's round and closer to the surface than the surrounding floor, there's no other place around it and it matches Plato's description exactly, Great Presentation!
Yeah man you have the voice and the understanding of history to get a sub. Good luck with the growth i will engage as best I can!

Your analysis is unique and fascinating. I've never heard anything about Atlantis reasoned quite as well, let alone leading to such precise conclusions. That a candidate site should be found exactly where Plato described it and corresponding to the dimensions he recorded can't be sheer coincidence. One suggestion: It might be helpful to overlay a few known geographic features as you zoom in from the aerial, continental view to the closer harbor view. It is difficult to see it in my mind's eye, but if you could superimpose San Francisco Bay, for example, over the Atlantean harbor, it would be tremendously useful. Since you have readers from all over the globe, I'd use several different references, such as Hong Kong, Puget Sound, San Diego's Mission Bay, and others. I'm sure you can think of many. Thanks for all your good work.
Thanks, that's a great idea!
Ignatuis Donnelly also has some views on the location of Atlantis based on Plato's narrative, situating it in what was called Dophin's Ridge back in the day, suggesting a yet much larger area that could have been submerged.
Maybe this is why the Portuguese government has extended its free economic zone of that area to over 600 kilometres around the Azores islands to be able to drill and mine, according to its own sources.
Very interesting video, we really seem to need to take a closer look at our history, what is often called a myth makes one wonder taking a closer look at it. Thank you.
Keep up the good work. We are listening.
I have always believed that this area is the best location for Atlantis.
Well done and excellent find!
I've always thought it was here myself, not based on evidence although there is some has you have found, but more of a feeling. It's interesting to note the former inhabitants of nearby Canary Islands (called the Guanches by the Spanish explores) were noted to be of great height (6 to 8ft on average) and faired haired & skinned which in that area is unusual. Though it's not so unusual though when you dig into the history of the adjacent regions. There are legends of a similar looking people occupying the Atlas Mountains of north Africa since ancient times. The celts of Europe also fit this description along with a some of the Germanic tribes. When Caesar questioned the Gaulish Celts about where they came from they said their ancestors came from the sea up the rivers to Gaul (France). They were also of a similar size appearance too compared to the 5ft romans eating mostly bread all day. The Spanish Celts, British Celts, and Irish Celts all had similar origin stories and were similar sized. I'm not suggesting the Celts came from the west but that the people who later became Celtized by the influence of the Hallstatt culture did. Also, the Egyptians who said to have originated from a much older culture have stories about their Gods arriving down the Nile by boat from the sea. Much of the upper class of Egypt was discovered to have red hair, and upon genetic study of mummies, a link was found between then and central/western European Celts who also had red hair. In Greek Myth Aphrodite who said to have come from the sea also has red hair. The Atlanteans were noted to be militant, warlike, and excelled at all military feats. They were also described as being very spiritual as well. All the people who have these myths about people arriving from the sea and founding their cultures were all martial, of great height (or a few individuals were at one time), and were very spiritual.
In edition if you consider that most of the ocean was bound up in the ice sheets back then, and the possibility that those sheets would have possibly connected with the northern tip of the island if it was in the Azores, then it's not hard to see how navigating the Atlantic back then would have been significantly easier. So much so that my opinion Proto European peoples, like the basques could have traveled by canoe, following the ice sheets than stumbled across the island. Being hunter gathers living off animals in both land and sea for most part this would have made them particularly robust physically. Add a little island dwarfism/gigantism and a small population of hunter gathers could potentially shoot up from 5 - 6ft to 7 - 8ft. Additionally there are stories of red-haired giants in the Americas as well. They weren't that primitives either surprisingly according to natives and either warred with, aided, or traded with them at one time or another. My theory is that after changing physically due to the island geology/ecology for a few thousand years, they spread out in both directions of Atlantic attempting colonize the land the formerly covered by ice or maybe more habitable by its retreat. There may have been people there already, left over from the initial migrations of Proto European peoples out of Europe who followed the glaciers or coasts, traveling to multiple continents settling down. These people were probably too primitive to resist so were absorbed into their population along with natives from everywhere to Africa, Europe, Near East and the Americas. After the island sank due any number of factors, isolated population pockets on the islands or former colonies regressed technologically and culturally without support from the mother country, while places like Egypt prospered due to the intelligentsia fleeing there.
Sorry for the monologue lol. This has always been a personal interest of mine. Obviously, this all theories and conjecture, but it’s interesting to think about.
1. "Gaul" literally translates: Foreigner(s)
It is the ancient Germanic word that they used to describe the Celts (or any Foreigners). This descriptive was misunderstood by the Romans as the name of the people rather than a adjective.
2. Authentic Conjecture is underrated. The problem today is that mainstream, funded, scientists hide their conjecture as "science".
The Atlantean origin of the Guanches, the Basques and of the Berber People of the Atlas Mountains is somewhat obvious for geographical reasons, and more than plausible that of the Egyptian elite ( and also Sumerian) and the various branches of the Celts for many other reasons, some also anticipated by NA. Yet, though Atlantis had to have a representation of all the 4 original races, it was basically the center of the Red Race which at some point must have become overwhelmingly aggressive and forced the others to flee, so I'd see Celts and Sumerians-Egyptians as "white" eastbound migrations much long before Atlantis destruction. As to gigantism, the Atlantean time was unquestionably the age of giants, but I would not make this solely dependent on a carnivorous diet of wildlife; it would be a merely materialistic explanation of a modern kind. In the period under consideration, the cause due to a dramatic psychic imbalance - consequence of a break with the spiritual domain - had to be much more decisive and affect also the very balance of the earth's axis. It would therefore be more appropriate to link the origin of gigantism to the origin of cannibalism, as suggested by the myth of Pelops, according to which the gods, upon realizing that they were eating human flesh, "overturned the table ( i.e., the Earth's plane of revolution) in horror" , and consequently produced that sudden upheaval of plans that caused the great catastrophe. After all, the Cyclopes, in Greek mythology, were cannibals. In this context, the portrayal of the European peoples as "too primitive" gatherers and hunters applies best to the early phase of the post-catastrophe period, but for the Atlantean period it contrasts with Plato's account, which describes the Greeks at the height of their civilization as allies of the Egyptians against Atlantis.
@@horpakheret3447 My problem with the Solon story (Greece and Egypt being allies against Atlantis) is that Greece just simply didn't exist 11,000 years ago. It didn't even exist 4,000 years ago.
@@matthewstorer8236 this site gives as its goal the discovery of the city of Atlantis - and as a corollary of anything that may have relation to its empire elsewhere in the Atlantic - following to the letter the account of Plato, who reports that of Solon, who reports that of the Egyptian priests. Thus, it is the Egyptians who speak of Atlantis and of the Greeks of the Atlantean period - about which Plato's Greek contemporaries had forgotten everything - following their chronology, preserved uninterruptedly in the temples. According to your reasoning, which is that of the official historiography, in 11000 B.C. no civilization existed, so neither did Atlantis and the Egyptians.
@@horpakheret3447 Exactly my point. I'm sure fictional writing existed in Platos time. Besides, there were colossal disasters that could have given Plato a basis for the story like the eruption, earthquakes and tsunami associated with Thera. We simply don't know so any argument on Atlantis' existence is futile. I personally agree that there does seem to be some trace evidence of a progenitor civilization in the deep past.
Oh great! Now Iv'e got to watch a bunch more videos. This was a very convincing presentation. I've been a fan of the Richat Structure which is 2,000' too high which has a greater appeal than 6,000' too deep. But you make a good point. The final proof will be finding the right artifacts which is extremely hard to do in either case. I think someone is looking to find the pillar at the temple of Sais. That could be a big help.
Thanks for your kind comments, I hope you enjoy the rest of the videos.
Really enjoyed this video. Thank you for creating this.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Great work. I think you're definitely looking in the right place. I read in a more esoteric, fringe source (copyrighted July of 1976) that there were two Atlantises. Greater Atlantis in the Azores area and Lesser Atlantis around Santorini. Greater Atlantis was destroyed by an asteroid which broke into two large parts punching holes into the earth crust under the Atlantic along with thousands of smaller fragments, about 11,540 years ago. Lesser Atlantis was destroyed when Santorini's volcano exploded some 5,500 years ago.
Hello i was prompted to view this after hearing your chat with the Grimerica boys. very interesting work sir it is certainly intriguing data you are presenting as you know Randall Carlson has been studying this for many years and has accumulated a great deal of data i really think you need to put your heads together on this i think between you you could really advance the study of Atlantis and our true origins as possibly survivors of a global catastrophe following the YD well done and every success in your further work.
Randal was right ! But ... you marked the spot with the X . Within 1 meter of each ring ,That doesn't happen according to main stream. Well done .
I recall seeing a movie on the lost continent of Atlantis, fictional of course, when I was a kid in the 1960's. It featured a highly advanced and technologically astute culture. From the bits and pieces, I recall, the continent was ultimately destroyed by a laser type nuclear technology they developed themselves. A price paid for human hubris. The film was both impressive and quite memorable. From that time on, being born on the Azores, I always had the sense that the Azores were a magical place. The movie just reinforced what I believed. In my mind the Azores are the remnants of that once awe-inspiring civilization. Logically and geographically, it makes perfect sense. It could also be just a grand myth. Only further study will reveal the truth. Til then we can all dream.
Excellent video, thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it!
The way I see it, there are two possibilities:
1/ The Azores Plateau
or
2/ Plato used it as a metaphorical device and it wasn't literally true.
I WANT 1 to be right, but until greater evidence is produced 2 holds the cards. Not because I think it's definitely right, but because it's the one that needs less explaining with all things being equal. I hope time will tell.
Given the way that the Plateau falls away so steeply to the east, I don't think it would theoretically be necessary to have the city's bordering sea be inland.
Check out the Azores Pyramid ;D
great work here bud TY 👍✌️🤠!¡!¡!
This is the only theory ive heard of that ticks off everything that plato said about it 🤔🤔
beautiful work.
Thank you so much 😀
My thoughts showing the rings, is how uneven it looks. But your explanation of sediment accounts for some. I imagine plate movement and landslides would account for more of it. Unfortunately, that would also bury most or all physical evidence that a submersible could find.
That's what I'm worried about. Not easy to see beneath deeply packed sediment.
Excellent. I really enjoyed your summary of the evidence. Good luck with your channel. 👍👍👍
Awesome presentation on ignorance clearing story. Npounts like
Asia was not known in times of Pluto.
Your info on depth of Azores pleateu. 200 meters.
9:23 ... the story actually talks about this. You remember the old priest talking to Solon about cycles? And how everyone except egypt failed in preserving the ancient knowledge. So the next humans discovering it after a catastrophe gets a kickstart.
10:15 So a continent separating the pacific and the atlantic .. bigger than north africa and the mid east combined.
Wonder what it could be :D
It's not in America as for some reason Americans always think they are getting left out. And if you listen to the video it explains what the size of Libya and Asia meant back then as ancient people seen it different to us. Atlantis was either Azores or Canary Islands when there was more land all evidence points to this not America or the Bahamas. i mean Americans think Jesus went there the ark of the covenant is there it's insanity. Except the facts. The Aztects Mayans and Incas were in America not bloody Atlantis why do you think we call it the Atlantic Ocean.
@@mattysavage2800 Well, im not american if that what you are implying.
For some reason, even tho the opposite has been proven, people think the americas were unknown.
About the size, that is seriously underplaying the descriptiion and their understanding.
"The americas" means north and south, and has nothing to do wth USA.
Dont even get me started on the azores or canary island bullshit. Thats just insulting the ancient egyptians.
@@mattysavage2800 Yes, why is it called the atlantic island... weird huh? Maybe read the story again ?
@@frosty6960 It's insulting the Ancient Egyptions by saying America and of course I know you meant north and south. Theres more evidence that matches the list than for any parts of America.

Thanks for watching!
I've always wondered Wether the sheer weight of the North American ice sheet covering the whole North of the US and Canada would have raised the edge of the continental plate right around the area of the azores.
All that ice disappeared pretty quickly which would have caused the opposite edge of the plate right around the azores area to see a major drop in a relatively short amount of time. That and the huge rise in sea level could be exactly what went on to cause the sinking of a near continent sized land mass.
We know that right now Scotland is experiencing a bounce back of sorts from the glacier that was weighing it down in the past. Scotland is nowhere near the edge of its continental plate though so its only experiencing a very slow upward movement.
Hi Cyberstar, thanks for watching my video and taking the time to write your well thought out comment. I still wonder if the melting of the North American ice sheet alone is enough to account for sinking the Azores Plateau by two thousand metres. Perhaps there were also bottom loading, isostatic interactions that we haven't taken into account yet. I will be presenting some ideas in episode 4, so stay tuned!
The ice melted from heat. 10 to 38 power ergs estimated. Carefully examine the shelf. Carved by water from existing rivers today. In florida caves under 100' (30 meters) of the ocean have clay pots, burned wood, artifacts of people. The Hopi described the event. Aborigines carved in stone, drew paintings in caves of it. As did others. In egypt at karnak the granite carved statues were melted on one side. See B Foerster works. SOMEONE moved 1000 plus Tonne rocks to build these things. It was not the romans. And level 8 hard rock isnt scratched by bronze tools. Core drilled holes exist still that only diamonds cut.
How?
i imagine it would. consider the thickness of the American plate vs the oceanic plate. it would be like the difference between bending a phonebook vs bending a piece of aluminum foil.
Very compelling, nice work 🍺

Amazing find! What needs to be established is the age of the various fossil finds in the core samples taken all those years ago. That would give an accurate timeline for the Azores micro-continents' time period above sea level.
My interest is in the Solutrean Hypothesis and the greater possibility of western migration via the Azores Plateau being in proximity to the maximum extent of ice sheets.
Excellent work sir!
Cheers.
I agree, more core samples need to be studied in detail. Given how important the Azores triple junction is to Geology, there's a shocking lack of physical Geological research that takes place in the region.
It matches what I remeber from my past life. Dunno about the city location exactly still very shady in my memory
I've had flashes of memories from that time period. Given the small size of the human population at that time. Very few people would have those kind of memories..
But know you're not alone, brother. Many souls started their life cycles in "Atlantis". Some of us can still faintly remember those times.
Congratulations. Nice video. I wrote a book "The code of Hathor deciphered" that explains the reason/origine of the world flood. As Plato said, there were many great disasters, like for instance meteorites, but there is one recurring disaster which is the greatest of all. This is the precession disaster. In my book, I explain that the precession is actually the orbit of our solar system, and because of this orbit, the Earth axis will shift eacht period of half precession or 12,888 years, which of course creates a world flood and the sinking of Atlantis in 1 day and 1 night. I really recommend to read it because it's so well prooved that it amazes.

it is actually the island, the cities name is not known.
@nocommonsense2000. Of course you would know better that someone who was born there. Dude get a life and a clue. Atlantis was a city on the continent of Appalachia.
The Billy Meier extraterrestrial contact case talks in quite a bit of detail about Atlantis. Your location of Atlantis is correct according to the contact notes. Atlantis was a great technological, economic and cultural superpower in the Antediluvian period. That advanced civilisation and empire lasted 18,000 years.

On some points I agree with him, on others I disagree. The viewers of this channel ought to check out "Randall Carlson's Kosmographia"t. It is a series 9 episodes long and leaves little doubt, becoming almost unrefutable as to the ancient location of Atlantis.
Did you miss the part where even the OP referenced EXACTLY what you are talking about?
In front of the straits doesn't necessarily mean outside the Pillars of Hercules, as it depends from which direction one is coming from.
“This power came forth out of the Atlantic Ocean, for in those days the Atlantic was navigable; and there was an island situated in front of the straits which are by you called the Pillars of Heracles” - Plato, from Timaeus
If it was on the other side of the pillars it would be on the land?
That 3-5000 meters of ocean rise would explain the interesting flood story of every culture as a coincidence and also why already explained many older archeological sites we haven’t been to simply because the ocean over took them
I used to live on Faial… the Azorian island you see on the video.
I am before Randall Carlson even said it was that what is the remnant of the Azores was probably where Atlantis if it did exist was a junta cated it's very strange because if you actually sit down and try to do background information on the islands there's not a whole lot written about them even from Antiquity which is kind of strange I've had a few friends goes and visit these islands and it's almost not littered with any historical sites or antiquities their own records don't seem to go back much further than Spanish and Portuguese colonialism and to think the islands were there this tire time from the classical. In before so it does make you wonder who was inhabiting those islands and certainly before the plateau was sunken
do you have a good source available for the azores bathymetry map?
That's amazing work from the data provided considering as factual and not myth as many try to play off going to work on Limiria next?
I figured the Azores where the remains of Atlantis or the area of where Atlantis would've been on the mid Atlantic ride. And the Guanche people of the Canaries, the Berbers of North Africa and the Basque of Spain where all the long lost descendants of Antlanteans. Possibly.
You know on Google maps this area is now blurred out. Why is that?
Excellent..
if you follow the river channels away from the continents they extend to at least 15k feet below sea level. This area around the Azores is only 7k ft below sea level.
Atlantis are in Africa, that famous Blue Eye of Africa. Place what shown in the video was colony which belonged to Atlantis before Ice age end
Check out episodes 8,9 & 10 of my Atlantis series if you want to see my opinion on the Eye of Africa.
I love this stuff I cant help it
Thanks!
Yeah I feel like the richat structure is definitely Atlantis. It shows that a giant wave once ran down it, and it is covered in salt. It has mountains to the north, plains on each side, and an opening at the south, just like Plato’s description. If you measure the richat structure, it is the exact same size as what Plato said about Atlantis. The richat structure has 2 rings of land and 3 of what would use to be filled with water. (Just like Plato said). Also on the father of history’s map, it says the word “Atlantes” where the richat structure would be. But I guess the azores could be one of the other kingdoms that make up the empire of Atlantis, since the one with 3 rings of water and two of land, is just the capital of Atlantis. Anyway this is just my opinion. I recommend watching bright insights videos on it. Also btw, Atlantis was said to be destroyed 12 thousand years ago. 12 thousand years ago is also said to be when sea levels rose a lot, and Africa started to change and it started to become a desert. Coincidence, I think not. Also non fossilised whale bones have been found in Mauritania meaning it was once under water. And also, Atlantis was said to have gold copper and iron in the region it was in. Mauritania has god copper and iron. Also, elephants were said to be in Atlantis, and elephants are still in Mauritania to this day. Also, Atlantis was said to be coloured mainly Red, White, and black. Red white and black stones have been found in the richat structure, along with old man made objects like, perfectly spherical balls.
Need to search for it, but saved a link that shows how measures of the Richat structure are much bigger than those given by Plato for the city of Atlantis, so nothing like the "exact size" of it ! Anyway, no doubt Mauritania was an Atlantis colony, and the Richat just an open pit stone quarry.

because the Richat structure is the latest hoax invented to capsize the truth set by Plato, Socrates, Solon, the priests of Sais, and you seemed felling a bit too much for it. There are only two options: either you accept Plato's "truth" to the letter, which is what "Apocalypse" does for its geographic location, or you get lost behind whatever IMO you may like best.
In any case, Atlantis, just like the other 4 Pillars of Heaven, is not the Original Island, but one of its substitutes in a much later and intermediate period.
Losing the primordial island is like falling out of the tree house, hitting your head and losing your memory, and this is what you call "getting a life".
@@horpakheret3447 Oh my god stop arguing, idc anymore about this, your just being annoying now because your just drowning out my notifications
Its the most noticeable. Except for one issue. While richat has alot of evidence. Itd have to have sank then rose immensely. . All of africa would have dramatic elevation shifts. No one has mentioned?!
The richat also. Is not within a sea with an ocean beyond it.
Plato writes about north america. And upon the other side. Being asia.
That atlantis was capable of impacting all continents. Except africa. Is never mentioned.
Africa has a large discernible structure of water eroded lines. Suggesting north africa was greatly covered in water.
Offering atlantis the ability to avoid sailing to the southern africa. Horn. Straight to egypt. N asia then after.
Aren't there at least 15 more enclosures still to be excavated at Gobekli Tepe? Possibly and probably older than what has been discovered? I'm only half way through the first episode but needed to see what others thoughts were. I've always been curious. Props to Matt at AA for recommending this channel.
Proud of this Matt guy making Matt's proud. Two people in this comment section were sent here by the Matt from AA, whose be spreading the truth

Thanks for this video. Unfortunately, you do not use the information given by Plato on the size of the plain in the southern portion of the island of ~550 by ~350km, surrounded by a massive ditch ~30 deep by 185m wide, in turn (partly?) surrounded by hills/mountains. May that not be now the northwestern corner of the African Plate at some 2000mBSL? This would relocate Atlantis (city) much further South than where you have it?
I was convinced that the Eye of the Sahara was Atlantis until I watched some of Randall Carlson's videos. The Richat structure is too big. Randall points out that the Azores is a much more likely candidate. When you consider that the Atlantic was much lower during the last ice age, it makes sense. Something big happened, comet or asteroid, that caused a large surge of water which washed Atantis away and the remains are still under the ocean.
I do discuss potential links between the Azores and the Richat Structure in episodes 8, 9 & 10 of my Atlantis series:

Its at the azores but ur scale is to small.... U have to imagine land big enough to block the jet stream and cause ice âge ... Its bigger ... And plato also talks about a huge poseidon statue. At the middle... I found it !
Oh yeah egyptian old written words from THOT the Atlanta ... He cleary say that they escaped from the waters sailing towards the rising sun. 😬 To reach ankh Land egypt ! Wanna know where that statue ?.
From Ashgabat Turkmenistan to the center of Atlantis to the tip of the Washington Obelisk in D.C including the dome of National Capital building to the Sacramento CA. capital dome are all very very close the same 38 the parallel East to West alignment
If you want to go down the D.C. rabbit hole, check out the work of Melissa Campbell:

If everyone could shut up about the richact structure and stop digging up their mums back garden in the Mediterranean. Watch this and jump down the next rabbit hole.
Interesting stuff and with the proper mention of isostatic and eustatic tectonic movement, you really do connect a lot of the dots as every theory has not quite hit home for me because it always like yeah but this massive thing they mentioned has to be completely ignored, whereas this incorporates almost everything Plato / Solon mention.
good job!
Thanks!
We need to get you introduced to Randal
Check the Richat structure in Mauritania
I discuss the importance of the Richat structure in episodes 8, 9 & 10.
@@MatApocalypse thanks! I'll check them out. I'm in the Azores right now and the scenery is quite impressive. Looks a bit like final fantasy from certain vantage points, like the remains of a broken land that sank into the ocean. Keep it up! ;)
Why are this coordinates blurred out on Google maps?
Google Earth / Maps doesn't show a lot of high resolution bathymetric data. It could be as simple as not being able to get the rights from the various Oceanographic Institutions that survey the sea floor, there are a lot of them.
Your model of the rings is missing the inner land ring of one stade/ furlong around the islet
The story states an inner to outer layout of 5-1-1-2-2-3.5-3.5
The bathymetric scan was performed at sea level, the resolution of the sonar from 1800 metres would be too low to pick this up clearly, not to mention that the entire site seems to be partially infilled by sediment. Really need to get down there or take a scan closer to the site with improved resolution.

@@unpackatlantisproject if you're interested in this feature (46km west of the Richat), you should talk to David Stig Hansen, he went to visit it when he explored the Richat:

I tried to view this with your 2D map from Bethymetry but it's not working :( The standard 3D version works I guess.
I recommend you to publish a book summarizing all your findings, you have quite a lot of new material.
I'm working on it, slowly, but I'm working on it.
Agreed this is important knowledge you discovered here. Especially the part about Gobekli Tepe. Also, the Taurid meteor shower occurs when the sun is in Libra so maybe the comets are actually those. Do they match up with Orion or a Bull-like creature?
22:00 - How deep is this site? Has there been any underwater expeditions done in this area? Any artifacts found in this area?
It's about 1800 metres below sea level. No expeditions as of yet.
When was the last Pole Shift?
I just went into the EMODnet map to check this out , and it happens that they placed a blury face exactly where your arrow is . strange.
Can it flood again like during the Younger Dryas? It appears to be that all water levels were lowered during the Great Flood. Now water seems to be high. So can sea level rise that much more? Are we already near high tide? I’m not disputing anything wondering if anyone has thought about theoretical limits of sea level rise.
Tried to view the coordinates on Google Earth and it looks like it's been blurred out now😡
Google Earth only has limited bathymetric data, I'm guessing it has something to do with copyright or permissions? Try using the EMOD portal (the data isn't as clear as it once was, they are constantly updating and merging their datasets for a more complete picture of the sea floor. It looks like a few datasets have been merged right where my proposed location is, but you can still make it out pretty well):

I don't understand. The map you showed had Atlas listed in Western Africa. Right in the middle of Atlas is the Richat StructureThe ring structure here matches the descriptions given on Atlantis. The structure was once connected by water to the Atlantic ocean. If you were to sail to the Richat structure in those days, you would have to go beyond the Pillars of Hercules and then south to the opening water way that had once lead to the structure.
I also think the Richat is the best candidate so far. I think to many are caught up on "sank into the ocean" as meaning it had to be in the middle of it. Anyone navigating waters at that time (I feel) would have done so by following coast lines. I have been pouring over the Richat and found some pretty cool things.
The Richat structure is a very interesting location, especially the dimensions of the elevated plateau it sits upon. You should check out Jimmy on the Bright Insight channel, he's made some interesting videos on the Richat. This is also worth a watch:

@@MatApocalypse Its interesting indeed... from a geological perspective. Historical and archeological not so much.
But its quite insulting to Solon and the ancient egyptians suggestings its Atlantis when they spent so much energy in explaining it isnt.
@@MatApocalypse Thanks for the reply and the link! It was actually a video of Jimmy's that got me interested in the first place. Honestly, we may never know where Atlantis lies. I think why I like the Richat is because at one time it would have been a beautiful place, and Atlantis or not, there is always history to be found EVERYWHERE.
@@frosty6960 lmao historical and archeological? Are you dumb? when talking abot the historical facts about the region, the first king was fucking atlas. Mauritamia's first king was Atlas...who was the king of atlantis. As far as archeological? We KNOW the area was once ocean. The sand of the sahara is oceanic sand. There are ripples created by ocean water. There is salt. there are oceanic animal bones. Literally everything in plato's description points to the richat structure being the city
