Has the long lost city of Atlantis finally been found? Head researcher, Richard Freund says they have found some things that no one else has ever seen before and this alone gives the find a layer of credibility, especially for the archeology community.
A US-led research team used satellite photos, deep-ground radar, digital mapping and underwater technology to zero in on the region they believe to be the site where the city of Atlantis once stood.
Plato’s “dialogues” are the only known source of information on the city of Atlantis, in which he describes the city as “an island situated in front of the straights which are by you called the Pillars of Hercules”, otherwise known as the straights of Gibraltar.
It has been debated upon whether or not the city of Atlantis actually even existed because of the scarcity of available writings.
Meanwhile, further excavations have been planned for the newly found site, as well as various locations 150 miles away.

The problem is that this site is too late to be Atlantis. It’s dated from 6,000 to 5,000 BCE, over 3,000 years after Atlantis sank. Points suggest the site is more likely connected to the “Sea People” referenced by Egyptian, Greek & Biblical historical texts, and Plato himself, who alluded to these people as having originally settled Athens.
This site is most likely an imitation of the design of the legendary Atlantean Capital City of Atalan. Every ancient civilization of note attempted to copy the culture and architecture of Atlantis just as we still copy much from the Romans of 2000 years ago.
Three concentric rings with a line in the center, the actual symbol of Atlantis, was found carved upon a large stone surface… a marking stone. The human figure on it looks like the figures in cave paintings in Southern France. This may indicate a cultural relationship. I suggest, this stone marker establishes archeological credence for the existence of Atlantis.
Donana is a first link to Atlantis. Current excavations, such a Donana, will begin to reveal more examples of a unique symbolic connection. More are soon to be found everywhere from Spain to India, as well as around Bimini, Cuba and Bermuda. I predict that more startling discoveries are to come from Turkey, Egypt, Southern Iran and even Peru.
