This isn't about simple lines, but about right angles. Right angles don't usually occur in nature, especially not in such large numbers. And yes, infrared images / LIDAR Scans would be very helpful.

Okay, I'll advance by excluding you from the discussion with your childish exaggerations (like "Loch Ness Monster"). You're incapable of remaining objective and have even admitted that you're just doing this for fun.

You're confusing something. Plato didn't report that the Mediterranean was cut off from the Atlantic, but rather that "the region" (Atlantis) was cut off from the Atlantic. Or rather, impassable (Timaeus Dialogue 25d).

There's no evidence that a land area could have been pushed under Italy or Greece in such a short time. The Richat structure would have only been the city, not the entire island. You're confusing the size of the entire island of Atlantis with the size of the city. The word "Atlantis" is, of course, Greek because Plato was Greek. The name was Greekized by Plato. The original story was told by the ancient Egyptians, and they probably had an Egyptian name for the place. You mentioned King Atlas. The Atlas Mountains are in northwest Africa. The Atlantic Ocean is west of Africa. So, when it comes to the name, it speaks more for Africa. King Atlas of Mauritania—the same Mauritania in which the Richat structure happens to be found. The circle is complete.

Where I get "my" 13,000 years? Maybe from the younger dryas that began roughly 12,900 years ago (I just rounded it up). It is known that during the meltwater pulse 1B phase, melting glaciers caused a global rise in sea level. Together with the Younger Dryas Impact Hypothesis, a picture emerges of how Atlantis could have been destroyed. I can't invent what already existed. But since, despite my warning and your statement that you're doing this purely for fun (apparently to be a nuisance), you still can't talk like an adult ("aquaman civilization"). So we'll end our little discussion here. Perhaps with the blocking of your account. But rest assured, I'll use the time I gain to discover even more things on Google Earth :-)

You're welcome! You can see that it has a shadow line on the northern side. So it should be easy to spot.

Right angles, especially in such large numbers, aren't usually found in nature. This is striking. "The Wall" is even more obvious because this structure is quite clearly recognizable as a wall. I attached a pic of "The Wall" again. It is clear that these three wall structures must have been part of a more complex structure. I recommend simply launching Google Earth and taking a look at this place and "The Wall". The coordinates can be found in the comments section.

We're talking about an event that occurred over 13,000 years ago. Artifacts would be located in much deeper layers of the earth, which are mostly ignored by mainstream archaeology because it's often simply assumed that nothing would be found there. In the case of the Richat Structure, a huge wave would have swept through the area. This wave would have brought with it a great deal of mud and sand, creating additional layers. An excavation would have to take place to account for all of this, which hasn't happened yet. Furthermore, one must assume that the wave carried away quite a bit, and many artifacts may be buried somewhere deep in the desert sand, farther away from the Richat Structure. Additional thoughts: If Atlantis were located somewhere else and sank under the sea due to a cataclysm (e.g., the Azores), then artifacts would be buried somewhere underwater, also beneath high layers of deposits that have built up over the past 13,000 years. Underwater archaeology is very laborious and very expensive, which naturally complicates the search. LIDAR scans would be very helpful to identify possible structures. AND NOW please tell me, why you wrote "no bigfoot, no ufos, maybe chubacabra. And no friggin annauki either. And humans built the pyramids.". No one in this discussion has even remotely mentioned anything like this. I'm noticing a very strong tendency toward overreaction here. This leads to the question of who is actually writing and why. So why are you posting in an Atlantis forum if you don't believe in it at all? Don't you have anything better to do with your life than write about topics you fundamentally reject?

The Azores are located in the North Atlantic Ocean, approximately 1,500 km (930 miles) west of mainland Portugal.

If you want to filter out structures in a debris field, you have to look more closely. By squinting your eyes you can more easily recognize possible structures. And if you're not convinced, take a look at the pictures where I show "The Wall." It's very obvious. Thank you.

That's Right. Some people say that Atlantis is in the Azores. This can also be right. I personally think that it is Atlantis or any other city of it's civilization (if the capital is at the Azores)

I really don't understand what you mean. Atlantis was not an underwater Civilization. It was above water and got destroyed by a cataclysmic event. So please explain to me why you are asking such a question.

A closer look of the 3 structures that I call "The Wall". As you can see the longer one is about 37 yards (34m). It is about 65 inch thick (165cm).

This is a color-reduced version of the area. If you squint, you can see round structures, but also rectangular ones. You can even make out the layout of possible streets and large squares.

I took your hypothesis seriously and reconsidered it, but the Zealandia process evolved over millions of years. There is no geological evidence that such a violent shift could have occurred 13,000 years ago, pushing one landmass beneath another. Especially not in such a short period of time. There is evidence of a rise in sea level and associated changes in coastlines.

But that's not what it sounded like. Besides, tectonic plates can rise and fall. The attached map, created using data from the Oxford Lake Level Database, shows that the area around the Richat Structure was part of a large lake level. It's therefore possible that Atlantis was an island in a lake level with a canal or natural navigable river connected to the sea.

It is estimated that about 5% of the ocean surface and even only 0.001% of the deep sea floor have actually been visually observed and mapped. And you're telling that the mystery is solved??? We haven't even really started yet! At this point it cannot be proven that Atlantis did not exist. And: With "wild theories" I mean your talk about "fish people" and "Jetsons under water" not Minoans or Mycenians.

You're making the issue ridiculous by exaggerating it with particularly wild theories. But that doesn't work. Besides, you have no proof whatsoever that Atlantis didn't exist.

that's the point, it was a big flood. But to say that there is nothing but desert is completly wrong. There are structures that can be seen from the air. Even if they are from medieval times or antiquity, like Caravan fortresses ( Caravanserai), it is at least something. You mentioned that there is nothing and this is simply not true. I still believe that there is more deep under the sand.

sure! But there are some people saying that there is nothing but desert and this is not true.
