weird_dude1394
i mean the south india tsunami.
marduk
cool
everyone has to believe in something
even when its been proven to be a well documented set of ruins from a completely different time period and location.

From Atlantis: where did the survivors go? page 4

"The site at mahalipuram has been dived on for about the last ten years on and off. the sites were previously studied by the Geological Survey of India and the Archaeological Survey of India in 1996 and 1997
It was mentioned in a book in 1914
https://www.vedamsbooks.com/no15384.htm

and in an even earlier book from 1792 Quintin Crauford wrote "There are ruins on the coast of Coromandel, near Sadras, called, by Europeans, the seven pagodas, by the natives, Mavalipuram. The remains of a palace and temple, of great extent, may yet be traced. Some of the inscriptions and hieroglyphics with which the walls abound, are no longer understood; and though tradition informs us that this place was at a considerable distance from the shore, many of the ruins are now covered with water, and when it is calm may be seen under it."

Apparently its been local knowledge for at least a couple of centuries. But then it would be wouldn't it. Fishermen have been snagging their nets on the top of the temples for decades if not centuries"

hmmmm nice work marduk. Maybe the ruins are from an ancient civilization. The building walls must have been rock and in the past ___ years the water must have reduced it to a sandy-looking substance
marduk
The ruins are from a well known and documented civilisation
The shore temple that still survives above water was built at the same time as those under it.
No one thinks the shore temple has mysterious origins
You've been reading what Mr Hancock was spouting as he claimed it was from a different civilisation and made an investigation of the site the main selling point of his book "underworld"
Since it was discovered to be quite normal he's been very quiet and unavailable for comment
He won't even answer my e mails.
if you'd like to ask him how he messed up so big on this one then I suggest you mail him yourself.

graham.hancock1@virgin.net

Oh he did ask me not to give out his e mail addy
But then I did ask him to stop writing crap
So i guess thats fair
Tell him marduk posted his e mail addy
I can hear his blood pressure rising as I type this

weird_dude1394
o ididnt read anything i just read on UM a few months ago and i just thought of it today saying my guesses
marduk
Still if anybody would like to e mail graham and ask him why he hasn't published a retraction for his absurd claims about mahalipuram yet as any honest author with integrity would have I'm sure he'd welcome the interest.
Of course the alternative that he's an anarchistic leech that makes money from other peoples gullibility can't be true can it
shall we do a poll
hahahahaha

Why would you think its atlantis? There are a number of submerged cities...
Conspiracy
maybe its just the indian ocean atlantis.. cause there seems to be a "Atlantis" under every ocean/sea in the world...

Mu? Or lemuria? Perhaps it's part of Lemuria..

Where would one go to read of sea levels? (namely the 'land bridge' that was supposed to once exist between africa and india, which madegascar was part of, and the mountains of this land bridge make up the Malay archipelago... Although considering the place of the Malay archipelago, it is more likley india and austrialia were connected, if anything at all.)

Cutting edge research can be a good thing
Don't be surprised though if the facts presented don't fit in with your theories
and please don't try to bend them so they will
That would be a disservice to yourself by you

very interesting site..
Walken
I doubt it's 'atlantis'. Wrong location, as Atlantis is actually supposedly in the atlantic ocean or under the polar ice caps.

Intresting idea through.

... that doesn't have information on the correct area, though. Thanks for the link anyhow, the site seems interesting... It has australia, but only goes back 20,000 years. But Lemuria was said to exist 900,000 - 25,000 years ago. About 5000 years short to catch even the very end of Lemuria (if it even did exist).

Interestingly, India and Australia are on the same contentinental plate, although the Malay archipellago are on a seperate one. Not sure what relevence this has though =/

btw marduk - not everything I say I believe, sometimes I am merely restating a preexisting theory on a related subject. Lemuria being one of these times.

YEah, tis, but its not really anything your average UM-er wouldn't already know.

Well could there be a way to measure how far out they are, with how far below water they are, and get an estimate date of them being above water?? I would think there to be a way, measuring the distance the sea has risen, by how much we are rising on average now?? I know we couldnt get exact date from this method due to polution, and all the things going with our climate warming.. But I would think we could get a rough estimate on the age of these structures, and be able to put them into a better classification of what the actually are/were.

erm sorry buddy theyre not a load of crap
theyre the work of Dr. Glenn Milne of Durham University and Karin Cheetham of Proudman Oceanographic Laboratories.
This is the very data that inspired Graham Hancock to write his best seller Underworld
Strangely enough you won't find this resource on his website
Know why
because this mapping is an indispensable tool in dating the submergence of underwater monuments, as well as identifying regions where civilizations may have existed but were subject to severe and cataclysmic flooding and Hancock doesn't like to share unless you pay him. When he heard this resource was going to be posted he got very upset.
This is the best resource of its kind in the world today
The data it shows has been built up over decades by serious minded people.
Still if its wasted on you then fair enough
Admittedly it doesn't take into account ECD or alien invasion fleets nuking large parts of the earths surface.
But thats only because neither of them exist.
If they did they'd show on the data

Neo2005
There was ruins found but not of atlantis
