Im under the very strong beleif that Atlantis was a colony of beings from another world. Why you ask? Atlantis was destroyed by a cataclysmic event. I beleive to be what is now the gulf of mexico to be a crator. What is now south america I beleive to be Atlantis or whats left of it. After this meteorite struck this planet which cuased huge tidal waves and im sure alot of ice. there were some survivors. I beleive that to be us. Now you might be asking yourself why did they not come back for us? Well I beleive that the damage was so devastating that they didnt think anyone could survive it. And after they finally found out there was survivors it was to late. (maybe a couple hundred years later). And decided to observe and watch over us. This is just my theory on life here. And please excuse my grammer its really terrible but Im sure you understand what im saying.
Lets Get Dangerous!!!

I can only agree with the last part rexochango, humans from africa are black/brown because of the sun, wheras europeans/anglo-saxons/asians are mostly a pale white because of the lack of sun.
You will find species with sufficent brain capacity do not forget things, like space travel, and then suddenly turn into cavemen, and isn't atlantis rumored to be near greece? I don't think it's a mexican legend.
Is t possible, that atlantis is like Vennise [i think i spelt that right?] it was slowly sinming, and they didn't have the ability to continue bulding on top over the buldings over and over again, or maybe lack of resources?

I don't believe that... It seems like you just want a different reason of how you got there then what ACTUALLY happened... But who knows.

I believe Atlantis to be a missing continent in the Atlantic ocean in between South America and Africa. But I have also read reorts of it supposedly to strectch from beneath Asia to beneath Australia. As for who lived there - that's another question.
I've read quite a lot of different theories about Atlantis. My own assumption is that they were human and no different to you or I. I believe, however, that Atlantis was home to a small elite group of humans who were fully aware of the brain's full potential and were able to use it. They were far more intelligent than we are and yet, it was something that they did that brought about the end of Atlantis.
Whether or not they had contact with aliens - which some theories state - I am still between two minds, but am more inclined to believe this to be false.
And the Beholder felt a tear roll down His cheek. And below, the people, so enthralled with the stars, failed to notice the torrential downpour.

Atlantis is always a hot topic, like Roswell or aunt Minnie´s ta-ta's.
But I am sort of a professional wet blanket, if for no other reason than that people, when they talk about Aliens and the like (Atlantis) tend to lose all sense of credibility, common sense, and reality. I mean, if we did not insist on SOME sort of standards here we would all wind up talking about Willy, the glow-in-the-dark space friend.
I mean, do you wanna just make stuff up, or are we trying to communicate meaningfully here?
Before you even begin to talk about Atlantis, you should go to the source: Plato. Plato wrote about Atlantis in his Dialogues around the year 375 BC. He is it. All of what we know about Atlantis, including the name, comes from him. Nothing else is valid, at all, insofar as written sources go. Not Donnelly. Not that movie you caught at 3 AM two weeks ago. Not what your very best buddy tells you confidentially. It is all crap.
First, y´gotta read Plato.
Plato, in his turn, sez he got all of his stuff, his info, from Socrates. Socrates, in turn, was quoting Hesiod, one of the legendary ten wise men of ancient Greece.
Hesiod took a trip to Egypt around the year 500 BC, and HE said that all the info on Atlantis was told to him by the Priests of Egypt from their records.
Those records, by the way, said that Atlantis had been destroyed 9,000 years earlier. So Plato was giving a date for the destruction of Atlantis around 9,500 BC.
Now, for 2,000 years most scholars assumed Plato was full of horse hockey. What he said was so unheard of and all, yatta, yatta, yatta.
But more recently, with the discovery that such things as the "Iliad" were probably true, and especially with Schliemann´s discovery of the ruins of Troy, scientists and those boring people who actually like to think began to suspect that there might be something to Plato´s account. That it might really have happened.
But what could it have been, really? And where?
Plato said that Atlantis was located ´beyond the pillars of Hercules´.
Well great, where is that?
Ever since European states began to explore the Atlantic about 500 years ago, it has just been assumed that "the pillars of Hercules" were the same thing as the Strait of Gibraltar. There was no proof of that. It was just an assumption. And as we all know, to assume anything makes an ass out of u and me.
But the early scientific search for Atlantis concentrated on, natch, the Atlantic Ocean. Other side of the pillars, nearly the same name, and so forth.
By the end of the 19th Century they knew that it could not have been in the Atlantic. There is no geological evidence, whatsoever, that any land mass of any considerable size has existed in the middle of the Atlantic, or that there was any sort of event catastrophic enough to completely obliterate such a land mass. The geology of the Atlantic ocean floor simply does not allow for such a thing.
Now, some of you might stop reading in disgust because you KNOW that Atlantis was in the Atlantic, that Elvis is still alive, and no evidence, or lack of it, will ever convince you.
Go in peace.
For the rest of you I shall continue.
Those boring, thinking types began to wonder if when Plato said the "Pillars of Hercules" he meant something other than the Strait of Gibraltar. After all, there is the annoying little fact that the ancient Greeks did not know about the strait of Gibraltar and when they spoke of anything having to do with the ocean they were referring to the Aegean or at most the eastern Mediterranean. Could the pillars of Hercules Plato was referring to been somewhat closer to home (Greece)?
Using this as a guide geologists began to look for a catastrophic event that could fit Plato´s account, but that occurred nearer to Athens than the middle of the Atlantic.
And they found it.
Somewhere around the year 1,400 BC there was an island in the Aegean Ocean that exploded catastrophically. Today we call that island
Santorini. At least, what is left of it. It was a dormant volcano and it blew up a la Mt. St. Helens. It released energy, it is estimated, on the order of 15,000 megatons.
Now THAT was a big burp.
But there is more. Plato gives a very detailed description of Atlantis, what the city looked like, etc. The island on which it was built was almost completely round.
Santorini was almost totally round too.
Moreover, at that time a great civilization disappeared. We call that civilization the "Minoan Civilization" today.
But what is in a name, eh? Some people still call George Bush "President".
The tidal wave that was released when Santorini exploded must have ravaged the entire east coast of the Meditteranean sea, and more than one city was destroyed.
Ok, OK, waidaminnit. Atlantis was destroyed 9,500 years before Christ, right? But Santorini was destroyed only 1,400 years BC.
How do I explain THAT, huh? How? How? How?
Like this.
When they were reading their records (which, you might surmise, were in hieroglyphs) the Egyptian Priests made a little mistake and slipped in a "0". Hey, ´don tell me that YOU´VE never done that. What they read as 9,000 was actually 900. Atlantis was destroyed 900 years before Hesiod, which gives us exactly the year 1,400 BC.
Hmmmmm.
Actually, it is rather difficult to believe that a civilization such as Egypt, which at that time was at its height, would not record such a literally world-shaking event as the eruption of Santorini. It is vastly more likely they did than that they did not.
If they called it Atlantis, hey, maybe that was the real name of the Minoans.
The point is, if you go with evidence and not with stuffed-full-of-blueberry pie nonsense, you can make sense of the whole thing. It is NOT a mystery.
Most of the guff you have heard about Atlantis was made up by Ignatius Donnely around 1859 in his book "Atlantis, the Antediluvian World" (he believed in the flood of Noah, too). After all, he had to make a living, eh? And no one really cared it was all junk.
All this nonsense about aliens and Atlantis came after "the Chariots of the Gods" was such a big hit. If crud works once, why not try it again?
Sorry to disappoint you guys, but although the legend of Atlantis most probably has a strong core of truth, its got nothing to do with a world-wide empire, aliens, super science, or all that other swill.

 Could be where the reptilliods lived? They claim that this Earth is theres and that they lived on here before us. Yet there is no evidence to support this. Unless they lived deep deeep deep underground, i think they lived on Alantis 
Just an idea.... |

*Sigh*
You guys are just here to fantasize and play, huh? I bet you think this site is just a net version of Saturday morning cartoons. How many of you REALLY think there is something like flying saucers? I bet you think that we made it all up. Obviously you are REALLY TRYING to make this ´Atlantis´ thing into a 1 hour TV series.
That´s the problem with most Americans. They wouldn´t know Reality if it came up and bit them in the ass.
There ARE such things as UFOs. In scientific terms we do not know if they are craft from other worlds exploring our planet. But over the years there have been some very intriguing occurances that point in that direction.
The scientific speculation that there is probably life on worlds orbiting other stars is serious. It is not on the order of Invader Zim or Spongebob.
For some of us here this site is a serious attempt to share information to try and get some real illumination on the matter. We are not here for Saturday morning jollies or to try and impress each other with how inventive our tall tales are.
I hate to be so grumpy (many other members will tell you I love it) but I would ask, pretty please, that all this posting about lizards hiding in the restroom at Disneyland and attempting to rule the world, or about what is in your opinion the coolest new video game or joystick, be toned down somewhat.
This string on Atlantis is a case in point.
Anyone surfing the web looking for some site to post valid information about UFOs (which is what we want) would take one look at this site today, conclude from the current posts that it is a site devoted to fantasy (on the level of Dungeons and Dragons) and move on.
I´m just asking that all this make-believe not be so obvious, thats all.
