This is a look at different theories on the lost continent Atlantis, and a look at “What If”, thinking outside of the box. 

Atlantis was a great continent. Plato wrote about it as early as 360 B.C. Timaeus is one of two books that he had written, Critias his second book he was unable to complete; it is not clear to as why.

Others say it was an explosion of tremendous force; originating from the great city’s center, that caused it to sink beneath the sea.

Some of the ancient philosophers viewed Atlantis as fiction including Aristotle. However, in antiquity there also many that did believe in its existence and they too were historians, geographers and philosophers.

Even some of the great thinkers of our time have theorized that Plato’s writings concerning the lost continent of Atlantis were nothing more than the work of fiction to fuel his political career.

However, Evidence does exist that points to the reality that such a great continent and city did indeed at one time exist. Some of the relics and ruins that lay beneath the sea point to this.

Another fascinating discovery discovered at the Maya ruins at Coba, is a tablet with pictures that describe an escape from a cataclysm depicted by e
