SOLVED THE MYSTERY OF ATLANTIS The mystery of Atlantis is no longer a mystery. The story quoted by the Greek philosopher, Plato, citing the story of Atlantis as told by the Egyptian priests of Sais, was not a fable. The Egyptians had told the Greek philosopher about the existence of a people who dwelt partly (1) on a “Big Island,” partly (2) on a continent, and partly (3) on a series of smaller islands that lay at a close distance between the “Big Island” and the continent. All this was located near the “Pillars of Hercules,” that is, near the Strait of Gibraltar. Check out the following casts for more info

Thanks to modern satellites that can look even beneath the sand and under the waters, we now know that more than 7,000 years ago a gigantic river originated in the Atlas Mountains between Morocco and Algeria and flowed into the coast of Mauritania. The river was so wide and long that it could be considered as a small inland sea. This river actually cut off a piece of the coast of North Africa, creating a kind of “Big Island” (although it was connected to the mainland for a bit). Being located at the foot of Mount Atlas (which still retains this name), the inhabitants were called Atlanteans, and the land on which they lived was named “Atlantis.”
