Atlantis hunt reveals structures in sea off Cyprus.


Did any of you read the front page on UM.


If you are intersted in this article, then go to the front page on UM, if you cannot find it, then it would be easier to go here---->>>Atlantis

I was reading about that a few minutes ago, it'll be interesting to see what they discover, (That's if they 'let' us see anything).

Why is it whenever these desperate Atlantis hunters find so much as a brick underwater they have an orgasmic fit?

/////////////
I was stationed at the American Embassy in Cyprus (Nicosia) from 1969-1970 at the State Department - and had the opportunity to go diving off shore to the ruins of Salamis. Not long after they had found what they EXPECTED to be the ruins of Atlantis off Thera (Santorin). The mold fits -- but if EARTH CHANGES for that geologically unstable area are concise - we will find a lot more Atlantis type ruins all along the coastal and depth areas of the Mediterramean. Even at the bottom of the Black Sea (of recent). The Minoans [Knossis] suffered the effects of that volcanic blast from Thera when huge tidal waves "wiped them out overnight"(Sound familiar??) . Hard to put pieces of this "Atlantis" puzzle to true history - when even the LOST ODDESSEUS couldn't find his way home to his beloved Penelope!!!
COUNTLESS ruins and artifacts are being discovered throughout the world - and if we keep looking for Atlantis (along nationality claims mind you!) - we will never find it. Why -- because we are LIMITED in our conventional thinking.
Although I also claim enthusiasm for every scrap artifact found that does NOT MAKE SENSE to history -- I prefer a "wait and see" attitude -- because someone else will find Atlantis right in their own back yard.

Let us project far into the future, say about ten thousand years . A major cataclysm (Pole Reversal?) wipes out this world (as we know it) -- nothing left that makes sense to the Archeologists years to come (after those very few survivors bred a new world population). Excavation depths find only a hand full of items which were somehow saved in a metallic box. Contained within appear to be a hand full of round metallic objects probably currency - and - a strange bird like object with the letters NASA on each side. Conventional wisdom establishes that earlier civilizations could not possibly have flown, therefore the bird like object MUST BE a name of a species of bird long extint now. The discs/coins - each with a figure on front - size and metallic quality varied - but EACH has the inscription "In God We Trust" etched on. Surely this civilization had many Gods! Each God according to the weight and value of the coin. The Gods appeared Anthropomorphic.
Polytheistic! But one other object bears attention. Appears to be a statue of a woman bearing a torch, and holding some book like object. There was writing on the base of the statue; but unintelligible. Surely this must be some fertility symbol or token to the aforementioned Gods!
The objects were re-wrapped and placed on the shelf for further study.
AH yes! History lost once again!

OK -- I am just conjecturing here -- but they would also find many ruins CONNECTING that civilization to the rest of the world -- indicating that this BIRD LIKE OBJECT may have come from a unique source. WHERE that source came from is now burried under ten thousand years of soil and sand.

I am afraid that we may never find the REAL Atlantis (and I firmly believe it did exist - or why would we be asking this in the first place?). But the greater portion of that unique civilization (and it was unique) - still has yet to be uncovered. And so long as we are blinded by hope (sincere albeit) - we will always walk by the very evidence of that unique civilization looking for it ELSEWHERE! Strange -- but oft times MYTHS are recorded history - sung and praised by many generations by word of mouth. Easily remembered by sagas and legends like:
Epic of Gilgamesh ---
http://www.ancienttexts.org/library/mesopotamian/gilgamesh/

HISTORY IS BEST preserved SPOKEN, and by those chosen to carry it on for generations. Written history can be currupt. For instance - take the word: wind. Seeing it by itself one wonders if it means a movement of air -- or to wind up a clock. Symbols may hold the KEY to the real meaning - but lost in years of conventionality. So many obstacles - and sad that many over-zealous groups burned and shattered the very valued sources of history and wiped out treasures we now lack. The treasures of the knowledge of what came before us.
Today -- we may call this Political, Scientific, or Religious "CORRECTNESS".
[Yes Political Correctness holds no unique claim!]

Like the search for the Grail, and the ARK (both). Perhaps we are looking for material things when it was really a STATE OF CIVILIZATION and NOT the NAME of it.
Just food for thought!!

BUT .. my hats off to Archeology!! Had it not been for them -- our history books would be limited to the Index pages of MYTH!

According to somethings i read on "timé" a book by Plato, the Atlantis was just a pseudonym for the decandent Athens which , as Plato says, was going to be punished by the gods if they continue in there wicked ways. The problem is the Plato never finished "timé" so we never know what happens to Atlantis, the whole "buried by the sea" theme was added later on.

***
The volcanic activity in the mediterranean sea is quite powerful and it could be possible that a number city would be destroyed and drift in the sea.

As it is - I am sure that many more ruins will be found - and in places we never thought of. This ALSO includes the Oceans.

Atlantis COULD VERY WELL be a UTOPIA (of sorts) - a state of civilization. Edgar Cayce "The Sleeping Prophet" stated many readings on the day to day life of Atlantis .. also that EGYPT (Like the Maya) were nothing but Atlantian Colonies. So far much of Mr. Cayce's Readings have NOT bee disputed. Some of those readings predicted MASSIVE EARTH CHANGES that may just be upon us now. This set on by a Reversal of the Poles -- already the MAGNETIC FIELD of the Planet (according to NASA) - is changing.

Only time will tell.

ALSO -- the Bimini area seems to have strange effects upon Navigational aids - Cayce mentioned a GIANT CRYSTAL that was a power source and transmitter (with facets). When "reved up" shoots out a nasty beam not unlike a laser! Strange that the predicted location of this .. object .. falls DEAD CENTER in the BERMUDA TRIANGLE!!

my science teacher was out and we watched a movie on the bermuda triangle.....the sub decided it was a great time to talk about it....the atlantis finding that is.....i don't know if it is true it would be cool....but they do kinda over react when they find stuff.....

///////////////
Fire the teacher and keep the SUB!!!!

That's one I feel that isn't P.C.!!

The Gryph

That bermuda triangle thing is a good theory because personally I belive Atlantis was located in the atLantic ocean!

You really should keep the sub!

I actually wonder if earths magnetic field will flip, what can happen!!!!!!

I hope it will happen soon (at least in my life time)

I really want to experience it

i saw a tv show a while back on the history channel that said that some guy though that atlantis was located in the mountains? i guess it wasn't...cause it was a few years ago and i haven't heard anything else about it.



i hope they do find it.


although in the middle of the bermuda triangle? that's ironic!!!


i wanna disappear at the bermuda triangle just to see where it would "take me"

For some of our Greco-American kin .... a joyful hopeful!!
But .. sad as realized .. twas another undersea OOPS! Volcanic debris.

Try to put TWO and TWO together -- ATLANTIC - ATLANTIS! Let's try to understand there is a MID ATLANTIC RIDGE that may be ripe for our pickings of an archeological undertaking?!

Or .... TEN THOUSAND years of tidal encrustactions covering (what oxidation does not take from us) - some ruins with a question -- ELSEWHERE!?

WHY do we continue to try to find Atlantis [Poseidae] along CONVENTIONAL Geological formations -- and not (perhaps) under tectonic overlaps?

Do we not acknowledge that there was also a LEMURIA - and a continent called 'PAN' - which strectched its peaks into what is now JA-PAN? Of course hearsay and rumor!

-- As Cher once sang ...................> "The Beat Goes ON!" .... and on and ... on ... and on... and ...... conventional science rules as usual!

History says there never was an ATLANTIS -- IMPOSSIBLE (as they say)!

Many years ago history said TROY NEVER existed [myth] -- till one avid person discovered the ruins. Or do we still try to call him CHARLATAN! NO! The SILENCE is a defined way of saying history was wrong again and this person was right. TROY DID EXIST -- but we quietly sweep every single "OOPS" under every Acedemic carpet to CONTINUE the myth that we are FAR SUPERIOR to anything BEFORE history. And this is quite evident in the hysteria at each and every new discovery of .... OOPARTS [Out of Place Artifacts].

I still continue -- we look for Atlantis in the WRONG PLACES.

IF there ever was an Atlantis .. it was in a civilized state [including a technology that was indeed mythical] - far above what we can comprehend now. Why?

Because THE VERY FACT WE STRIVE for better answers reinforces the GATE we put up to KNOW those very answers. Human reasoning stipulates we DO NOT want to know the answers to something that is ..... IMPOSSIBLE ... along historical lines.

Simply put -- HOW WOULD the Human Race deal with knowing WE ARE NOT ALONE in this Universe?? Now put that question to the very fact that MAYBE -- just maybe -- there WAS an AGE -- a GOLDEN AGE - when Civilization was FAR SUPERIOR to our own - and it perished because of selfish intent. The Virtual garden of Eden [so misunderstood by the very people who lived in Monks Caves] .

READ FIRMLY BETWEEN THE LINES of Genesis!

NONE are so blind as those who WILL NOT SEE what is before them.

Why do we discuss this [Atlantis] in the first place? Plato? Herodotus?

We have FAR MORE references to this ancient Civilization than we have of a man called Christ. Doubt this? Try to find the references OTHER THAN the New Testament. Does this prove [beyond shadow of a doubt] that Christ DID NOT exist??? FAITH ALONE creates that perpetuality -- of both.... proven neither.

Atlantis - Atlantic Ocean -- Atlas Mountains -- Atl -- Atzland?

Clinical debate not-with-standing -- I FIRMLY believe Atlantis existed -- but in a civilized state we may have yet to know until AD December 2012.

WHEN that Celestial Cycle returns back to where it should be.
Hunab Ku! Primative indeed!

Yup it has been discovered so many times in the last 10 yrs Ive lost count ... though no one can agree ANYWAY that last discovery turned out to be a undersea volcano lolz

KUDOS GUY!

You got my point!!

We will NEVER find a grain of BEACH SAND looking in the Rocky Mountains!!

[or will we??! ---- HMMM!]
