RE: Do You Think Atlantis Was Real? (5 Reasons Why It Could Be Real)

in #history7 years ago (edited)

I'm probably more of a conventional thinker, as I'm currently studying history in University, but I wouldn't rule the prospect of the existence of Atlantis out. Though the evidence of Atlantis existing is inconclusive, that also means the evidence that it didn't exist is inconclusive, meaning, we don't know for sure.

It's also important to note, that great empires during that time frame, pre-3000 BC, weren't that large. Ancient Egypt, the greatest empire of its time, was quite small compared to what we consider great empire to be today. So the idea that Atlantis, a great empire of its time, was probably pretty small compared to what we consider to be a great empire today, so operating under that assumption, its quite feasible for an empire of that size to be completely wiped out in a cataclysmic event.

I was once studying history in university, a long time ago... Ancient Egypt was only a powerful empire because they had electric power I presume, well until Moses left. I also think the civilizations were relatively small. Scientists still can't explain how the pyramids were built. We can't even replicate it today. Ancient Egypt's population was being built back up after the flood, so it wouldn't have a large population at all. It is very interesting, although Atlantis is not proven, there is enough evidence to know there were civilizations here prior to the great flood and humanity as we know it.
