Wow! four pages and this thread is still going - lol.

Wow! four pages and this thread is still going - lol.

If I were to address every fallacy that Mr Margiani has posted it would now be on page 8!

[lyner]

Do you think we'd get four pages out of Freddy Mercury ate my hamster?

[Bored chemist]

Shouldn't that be Freddy Star, or are you just banking on the fact that dead people can't sue for libel?
Freddy is (or at least claimed at the time to be) vegetarian.
It's not important; all the evidence says it's nonsense and there's practically nobody would ever have believed it.

The trouble is I'm not sure which story I'm describing; Atlantis or the Hamster.

[lyner]

LOL
Never was good at names.
But either Freddy would serve.

The Atlantis City is DISCOVERED!

The Azores Triple Junction is a geologic triple junction where the boundaries of three tectonic plates intersect: the North American Plate, the Eurasian Plate and the African Plate. This triple junction is located along the Mid-Atlantic Ridge amidst the Azores islands, nearly due west of the Straits of Gibraltar. It is classed as a R-R-R triple junction, "T" type (for its shape), as it is an intersection of the Mid-Atlantic Ridge running north-south and the Terceira Rift which runs east-southeast.
The Azores-Gibraltar Transform Fault, also called the Azores-Gibraltar fault zone (AGFZ), is a major geologic fault which runs eastward from the eastern end of the Terceira Rift in the Azores, extending through the Strait of Gibraltar and into the Mediterranean Sea. It forms part of the tectonic boundary between the Eurasian Plate and the African Plate. The extension east of the Strait of Gibraltar is poorly understood and is currently regarded as a "diffuse" boundary. Somewhere in the vicinity of the Italian Peninsula, many geologists believe the fault connects with a subduction zone where the African Plate is slowly subducting beneath the Eurasian Plate.

Is it possible to zoom in further, so we can see the cities?

Through the Google; Latitude: 37:19 N, Longitude: 24:58 W.
If serious, there is treasure of the mankind!

I'm looking for that all my life!

I'm looking for that all my life!

What a  waste!

[K.Margiani (OP)]

Hello Vern!
I discovered the Atlantis City! Sorry Vern only the graveyard! 3/4 of the Golden City is covered by thickest magma layers.
Through the Google; Latitude: 37:19 N, Longitude: 24:58 W.
If serious, there is covered treasure of the mankind!

I'm looking for that all my life!

Treasure! Do you mean Gold and Diamonds?
Are you happy to share the knowledge of this treasure with mankind?
Should you not be keeping the treasure so you can fund further research?

[Vern]

How did you manage to discover it? Ok; I see; Google Earth. I'll take a look.

[Vern]

I went to the location with Google Earth, but couldn't make out any detail. It looked like open ocean; however the bottom floor map showed an elevation table that might be the size of a small continent.

[K.Margiani (OP)]

There is seen half circle only.Diameter of the Golden City was about 100km (5 stade = 92 km)
we can observe central point of the temple. Of course everything, by thick petrified magma and sedimentary layer is covered.

- In the capital of Atlantis there was a grove of Poseidon (Crit. 117b) and the temple of Poseidon consisted of gold, silver, ivory and orichalcum(processed copper’s surface with imitation of the gold). In the temple was monument sculpture Poseidon standing in a chariot drawn by six winged horses, surrounded by dolphins. Thus, if Atlantis City really ever existed, modern coordinates of the golden temple which lies beneath the ocean are that; Latitude: 37:19N, Longitude: 24:58W.

Okay; that looks interesting. The sea-floor ridges resemble a giant caldera in that area.

[K.Margiani (OP)]

There is survived quarter plane only. A Caldera has not similar plane as well as central strange point!
You can not ever find in a caldera something like this!
"This part of the island looked towards the south, and was sheltered from the north."

[BenV]

MOD - I have merged this with the other atlantis thread - please keep all discussion of your hypothesis to one thread, otherwise we'll have duplicated discussions going on all over the place. Any new threads on the same topic will be deleted.

[Vern]

I'll get Google Earth going and look around the area some more.

[LoneStar77]

Carl - you raise some interesting points. Unfortunately I know nothing about geology.

I shall digest the rest of what you wrote and regurgitate my musings on it later  []

Well, DocBeaver. The three points of data really had nothing to do with geology, directly. Though they may have been caused by the subsidence of Atlantis, if such a place existed.

I offered PROOF that something BIG happened ~9600 BCE (the year Plato's legendary island empire sank), and these three points of evidence support that subsidence. And not one comment? Hmmm-m-m! Come on guys and gals! Proof! Doesn't that provoke something of the scientist in you?  []

Two points of evidence were climatic (one with help from a geological event somewhere -- volcanic in nature), but from different disciplines. The third point was from oceanographic data, but biological in nature.

Scientists have puzzled about the abrupt ending to the Younger Dryas mini-Ice Age (1300 years of return to Ice Age conditions). A mega-tsunami from the tectonic collapse of a Texas-sized plot of land could have created  the necessary disturbance to the conditions that created the YD in the first place.

A moderately large volcanic trace in the Greenland ice cores shows that there was some volcanic activity at the time Atlantis supposedly sank. This wind-blown precipitation may have originated from a geological event, but the evidence is from climatic research. The volcanic activity apparently continued for roughly another two years or so. Could we expect the Azores region (volcanic for millions of years) to have erupted with the collapse of Atlantis (assuming that was the region where the island empire existed)?

A two-meter drop in sea level worldwide! Calculate the volume of ocean water displaced by a Texas-sized plot of land (I actually used 1.5 x Texas) and assume an average drop of 3000 meters. Now spread this over the connected oceans and seas of the world and you get roughly two meters. Two meters apparently were taken from all the oceans and seas to fill the void left by some tectonic collapse.

Atlantis? The dates match! For all four events.

These three data points from oceanographic and climatic data do not prove Atlantis. Heck, they could be three unrelated events. We don't yet have a corpus delicti, but we now seem to have a smoking gun. Interested?
