If there really IS an Atlantis, this is where I'm betting it is. The location's right, "beyond the Pillars of Hercules," and populated areas could have been inundated suddenly in an interglacial period. I've been thinking for a long time that the tale fits with this region's geological and possibly anthropological history.
Yeah, I agree with you. I do think that a similar situation prevailed all over the world when the world sealevels were much lower during the glaciations.
