    Thing thing about this Atlantis is that if Socrates (Or whoever for that matter) knew about this then it was around during recorded history. I think any event that would plunged a entire city/nation into the ocean would have been something that would have been mentioned somewhere.

    I have read somewhere that many cultures have enchant legends of a continent that disappeared or was destroyed. It may be worthwhile for those who are interested to investigate this further.

    It was an allegory, not a history. It was invented by Plato like 95% of the stuff that Socrates "said".

    And Uki I spent YEARS researching stuff like Atlantis in my teens before I came to that position. This isn't a quick wiki job here, this is experience speaking.

    There was never a lost island of atlantis. The atlantis fable was an allegory most likely constructed based off the (relatively cataclysmic) collapse of the Minoan kingdom on Crete.
