atalante Posted March 3, 2019 #176 Share Posted March 3, 2019 (edited) Critias's description of Atlantis's Great Plain - in regard to both size and orientation - fits the combined watersheds of the Guadalquivir and Segura rivers in southeast Spain. This location was sheltered from "northern blasts". By definition of "watersheds", they carried runoff water from higher ground (and high ground blocked winds somewhat). In the following watershed map, the Guadalquivir has pale orange color; and the Segura has pink color. The dark gray coastal watershed in the map was also part of Critias's Great Plain. These three watersheds, when combined, have approximately the area that Critias stated for the Great Plain of Atlantis. They have approximately 3000 stades of frontage on the Mediterranean Sea; and they extend approximately 2000 stades inland from the Mediterranean Sea. They include the region around Cadiz bay (and the Donana Park), which Critias said was supervised by Eumelus/Gadeirus, And they have some shoreline both inside and outside the strait of Gibralter. http://www.iberianature.com/material/photos/CUENCAHI.jpg WATERSHEDS IN SPAIN Edited March 3, 2019 by atalante Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
docyabut2 Posted March 4, 2019 #177 Share Posted March 4, 2019 (edited) I have described the city and the environs of the ancient palace nearly in the words of Solon, and now I must endeavour to represent the nature and arrangement of the rest of the land. The whole country was said by him to be very lofty and precipitous on the side of the sea, but the country immediately about and surrounding the city was a level plain, itself surrounded by mountains which descended towards the sea; it was smooth and even, and of an oblong shape, extending in one direction three thousand stadia, but across the centre inland it was two thousand stadia. This part of the island looked towards the south, and was sheltered from the north. The surrounding mountains were celebrated for their number and size and beauty, far beyond any which still exist, having in them also many wealthy villages of country folk, and rivers, and lakes, and meadows supplying food enough for every animal, wild or tame, and much wood of various sorts, abundant for each and every kind of work. http://classics.mit.edu/Plato/critias.html The surrounding mountains?

atalante Posted March 4, 2019 #179 Share Posted March 4, 2019 A 300 page book by Georgeos Montexano discusses, among other things, a group of ancient Egyptian documents about a legendary far-western region. A 45 page preview is available online. The summary index is on pages 8-12 of this preview. The date range for his Egyptian documents is the time when Georgeos expects Atlantis was active. https://play.google.com/books/reader?id=Xp7VDQAAQBAJ&hl=en_US&pg=GBS.PT13.w.15.0.0 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Again go to the film( Atlantis Rising ). At the end Georgeos Diaz is showing Simcha Jacobovici a map. It real quick, but you will see the map.

Essan Posted March 8, 2019 #192 Share Posted March 8, 2019 Tsunamis leave deposits. If a tsunami destroys a city, the deposits would be expected to contain considerable amounts of human detritus from said city. Tsunamis that have hit coastal regions around the Gulf of Cadiz have left deposits. These comprise entirely of sand, shells, boulders and pebbles. But no human artifacts. See, for example, http://cdn.intechweb.org/pdfs/13085.pdf and http://www.academia.edu/3128641/Evidence_of_high-energy_events_in_the_geological_record_Mid-holocene_evolution_of_the_southwestern_Doñana_National_Park_SW_Spain_ 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So 4100 to 3700 BP (as documented here ) would be 2,150 to 1,750 BC. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harte Posted March 9, 2019 #196 Share Posted March 9, 2019 All I can say is that the map doesn't look very old, does it? Also, Simcha Jacobovici - wasn't he the guy that went forward with his "Exodus Decoded" crockumentary even after finding out that the entire basis of his claim - the dates for the eruption of Thera - had been previously shown to be in error (too late)? Yeah. Nothing worth any consideration if that guy's in the picture. Harte 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
