"the biggest archaeological discovery of all time"
Has atlantis been found?
"It may be the answer generations of experts on the ancient world have been looking for. New research claims that the fabled ancient civilisation of Atlantis is located close to Cyprus.
"After nearly 10 years of research using ocean mapping technology and accounts from ancient texts, an American explorer says he has evidence that Atlantis lies beneath the deep blue waters off the southern tip of the island."
"...the site matches Plato's account of Atlantis, in the dialogues Timaeus and Critias, written in about 400BC. The description is said to be based on the writings of Solon, who recorded the account told to him by the Egyptians in around 600BC."
"...Central to the latest theory is the fact that the Mediterranean basin suffered a catastrophic flood with the destruction of the Gibraltar 'dam' that once closed the Mediterranean Sea from the Atlantic.
"This substantiates Plato's claim that an epochal flood 'swallowed up' the island of Atlantis leaving only the uninhabited mountainous regions above water, and supports the Biblical story of the flood."
