"The big problem I have with this guys theory is that, so far as I've been able to find out, the breaching of the dam (represented at one end by the Rock of Gibralter) between the Atlantic and the Med happened around 65 million years ago. "

The Mediterranean completely dried out 4-5 million years ago which would necessitate that the passage at Gilbralter was blocked at that time.

Whilst everyone is quick to pass the almighty judgement. How about reading the book and make a good judgement.

Lets face it no one has got hard evidence on Atlantis. All theories are just theories and thats all. That why I reckon the so called experts are worried and quick to judge and refute this guy without reading the book becuase he might be just right.

The so called experts have no solid evidence, not even a credible location. that you could determine with other independent sources.

Ive seen what the ruckus is all about. I can honestly say that the author has done something that nobody else has achieved. Maybe becuase he thinks lateraly and is open minded to many sources. Who knows.

I say go for Cyprus and uncover what is there. Well at least check out the idea.

Hey, maybe the author is being guided by The Gods of Atlantis to bring about a whole new ball game on this ridiculous planet through knowledge and discovery. Maybe there is something more underlying than just Plato?? About time to bring conclusion to this mystery. I say the planet sure needs something uplifting rather than all this contrived negativity, skeptism and opinions which are flimsy at best particulary when they have even read the book.

I think there is alot, alot more to this that meets the eye.

The Gods I reckon left a sign , a very large sign post that will be hard to refute with counter evidence, even though they will try to save themselves. I have to laugh.

correct, but that was a matter of lowered and then raised sea level, not a "breach" of the "dam" between Gibralter and north Africa as occured 65 million years ago. The postulated civilization destroyed by rising sea water may have occured as this author states, but it would be the result of the gradual rising of sea level brought about by the gradual melting of ice age glaciers, not the sudden event of the breach of the dam between the Med and Atlantic. That messes up this scenario as representing the "facts" in the Atlantis legend.

The breach event is apparently well established, geologically, with increcdible force being exerted to scour the floor of the Med by the jet of water from the breach. Some say the noise would have carried half way around the world. 65 million years ago who would have noticed? T Rex?
