  1. Repeating this, in case Jimmy the Snowflake deletes: The Egyptians "told" Solon that Atlantis was an Island created by Poseidon beyond the Pillars of Hercules and it was sunk by an earthquake. lol. You think the Egyptians didn't notice a Vast & Powerful Civilization right next to them in North Africa? Don't worry, your fans won't notice or care about the inconsistencies in your "theories" or your selective cherry-picking and ignoring anything contrary to your spurious conjectures, suppositions, suggestions or other BS. You've gotten some mileage out of the Rishit Structure but soon you'll need to pivot to Atlantis in Antarctica, the North Sea, Southeast Asia or America like all the other "searchers for the truth."

  2.  @Bickle121  I know. I used to point out that Atlantis is a myth. Just a philosophical allegory written by Plato to discuss his views on Ideal Republics. But that has little effect on True Believers. So now I try to point out how their various theories don't make sense. Once Upon a Time: Solon went to Egypt in 600 BC and the Egyptians told him about a War between Atlantis & Athens in 9,600 BC! Thousands of years before either civilization existed! lol. They somehow preserved this story for 9,000 years. Orally, I guess, until they invented hieroglyphics. How many walls did they need to record the 5,000 word story in picture writing? The Declaration of Independence has 1,300 words. But the Critias dialogue has an unnecessarily detailed, overly elaborate description of Atlantis in minute detail. The Egyptians must have really cared about Atlantis to record everything about them. Funny how no other ancient civilization ever mentions them. Nothing in the annals of recorded history from the Sumerians, Babylonians, Hittites, Minoans, Hebrews, Assyrians, Lydians, etc or anybody else. Then Solon returns to Athens but keeps the Astonishing Tale of Atlantis as a family secret for 200 years. He tells one dude, Dropidus, who tells his son Critias the Elder, who waits until he's 90 years old to tell his 10-year old grandson Critias all about this Legendary Tale of Athenian Heroism & Bravery. Then Critias waits 40 years until he grows up and Socrates asks him a question, during a festival, about how ideal states deal with corrupt states. Critias: "Hey, Plato. Get some papyrus and a quill. You're gonna dig it. Write this shit down. I'm about to school Socrates."

  3.  @Bickle121  Yep. It's a cool story. More books have been written about Atlantis than even the JFK assassination, probably.

  4.  @recoilrob324  I was just being facetious about Jimmy's theory that the Eye of the Sahara is Atlantis. Atlantis is a myth. Based on a philosophical allegory written by Plato. Plato's dialogue, Critias, relates that Atlantis was destroyed as a result of Divine Retribution. It's army was destroyed and the Island of Atlantis was sunk by an earthquake. He didn't mention any survivors. Too bad the Egyptians didn't tell Solon about the "survivors." I guess the Egyptians forgot that they were founded by Survivors of Atlantis! They recorded everything else about Atlantis but somehow forget to mention that tiny, little, insignificant detail when Solon went to visit in 600 BC. What a shame. Atlantean Survivors: "Instead of recreating our Lost Global Advanced Utopian Ayahuasca Psychic Shamanistic Sea-Faring Civilization.... let's make a new civilization called Egypt with pharaohs and pyramids but let's keep it a secret that we came from Atlantis! Don't tell the simple brown people of the Nile where we came from! They don't need to know the origin of their overlords!" Are you suggesting that a fully developed culture arose out of nowhere in Egypt? Have you heard of the Badari, Naqada, Amratian, Gerzeh, Semainian? Early Pre-Dynastic cultures in Egypt? Did the Atlanteans just show up and put them to work: using levitation for megalithic construction! I guess you're not familiar with all the primitive monumental structures in Egypt: the mastabas, the Step Pyramid, Pyramid of Djoser. Those were crude compared to the Great Pyramid at Giza. "Atlantis" was destroyed in 9,600 BC but somehow the incompetent butt-sniffing hunter-gatherer Egyptians decided to wait until 7,000 years later to build the Great Pyramid, even with the help of Atlanteans and their secret lost tech! Or was the Great Pyramid built in 9,600 BC? Civilizations rise, peak, decline and fall. Every civilization has examples of monumental building which increase gradually in design, complexity or quality, followed by a period of heightened achievement... and then declining accomplishments due to the vicissitudes of empire. Conditions change: domestic and foreign policies change. Workforce, economy, population demographics, cultural priorities, etc. The early pharaohs built pyramids and then later the focus shifted to expanding the kingdom through territorial expansion & warfare. The Ancient Greeks, at the height of their glory during the Periclean Age, built the Parthenon and afterwards it was all downhill.

  5.  @creamygoodness42  I've never seen any Uncharted X videos. Is he at least somewhat serious like Randall Carlson? I liked an interview with Graham Hancock and Jesse Michels, who seemed knowledgeable about history and other topics.

  7.  @madadem2652  It's called Classical Scholarship. Look it up when you have a chance. When you're not listening to YTubers and crackpots writing about "Ancient Mysteries." Thousands of historians, philosophers and classical scholars over the last 2,000 years have concluded Atlantis is bullshit. But I guess they're part of that Vast Conspiracy to Hide Humanity's Past. lol. Plato wrote philosophical conversations known as Platonic Dialogues in a dialectic style in order to present his philosophical views. The story of Atlantis, the Ring of Gyges and the Myth of Er are among the allegories he invented to expound on his beliefs. These "tales" are found nowhere else but in Plato's Dialogues.
