Scientific Proof of the Existence of Plato’s Atlantis with a Short List of Scientific Evidence
The catastrophe that destroyed Atlantis is the semi-submersion of the Sardinian-Corsican geological block;
the elephant species present in Atlantis was the Mammuthus Lamarmorai;
the mud that surrounded the island was caused by the undertow that raised mountains of mud from the Sardinian-Corsican paleocoasts;
Atlantis is the Sardinian-Corsican geological block semi-submerged;
Atlantic Ocean was the western Mediterranean Sea that took its name from the Sardinian-Corsican Atlantean island; the Romans then later contrasted it with the name Mare Nostrum, in contrast with the name Mare Atlantideum;
In Atlantis there were the oldest old people: it is still like this, there are Blue Zones like that of Perdasdefogu, where many inhabitants are still over a hundred years old today;
in Atlantis they used stones of various colors, using polychromatism, and this is what archaeologists have discovered in the nuraghe Miali di Pompu, Barumini, Nuraghe Arrubiu etc.;
the Atlanteans were builders of Towers, and in fact in Sardinia there are over 7000 seven thousand certified and documented nuraghe, excavated and studied;
Atlantis was rich in minerals, and in fact the Sulcis Mines are the oldest in Europe;
there are traces of the ancient Atlantean trade throughout Europe linked to the trade of obsidian and other Sardinian materials throughout Europe.
Atlantis IS NOT SARDINIA: Atlantis is the entire semi-submerged Sardinian-Corsica geological block. Sardinia and Corsica are two ATLANTIS PLATEAU that emerge from the surface of the water, and for this reason over the millennia they have been identified as islands and not as mountains of Atlantis;
the Atlanteans were a warrior people, and in fact the Nuragic-Atlantean bronzes represent warriors, boxers, archers, chieftains; then Mont’E’ Prama was discovered, the oldest statuary in the Mediterranean: and the statues once again represent BOXERS, ARCHERS, WARRIORS… the Atlanteans are a warrior people.
The archaeologist Giovanni Lilliu could not talk about Atlantis otherwise he would have been expelled from the University. So he invented a nonsense word, calling the Atlanteans “Nuragic people”, inventing the word Nuragic because the Atlanteans created many nuraghes. So from today we call the Americans the Cocacolotico people because they drink a lot of Coca-Cola and the Italians the Spaghettotico people because they eat spaghetti. Do you understand that it is nonsense?
The discovery of Atlantis is already going around the world in many languages: books containing the story of the discovery have already been published on Amazon in many languages: Danish, Finnish, French, Spanish, German, while in other languages they are being published.
The scientific world is in shock because for 2600 years it was thought that Atlantis was a legend: Atlantis is the Sardinian-Corsican geological block semi-submerged in the ancient Atlantic Ocean, today called the Western Mediterranean.
In January 2021, Luigi Usai, an independent researcher, released a new scientific discovery according to which Herodotus with the terms Libya and Asia refers directly to Sardinia and Corsica. The Histories of Herodotus, chapter IV: Libya is Sardinia. Timaeus and Critias: Atlantis was as large as Libya and Asia put together: that is, Atlantis was larger than Sardinia and Corsica put together. Diodorus Siculus 5.20: the circumnavigation of Libya is not the circumnavigation of Africa, but rather the circumnavigation of Sardinia. These discoveries cause an upheaval in ancient knowledge: for Herodotus, after having carried out all the checks and verifications necessary to guarantee the validity of these statements, the Atlas Mountains are now called the Sulcis Mountains. The sea that surrounded the Sardinian-Corsican geological block is today called the Western Mediterranean, the Sardinian Sea, the Corsican Sea, the Tyrrhenian Sea, for the ancients before the 8th century BC it was called the Atlantic Ocean. To this geographical nomenclature, the Romans contrasted the term Mare Nostrum, to indicate that it was no longer Atlantis’, but the Romans’. All the texts that speak of Atlantis in a historical and serious manner, therefore, are speaking of the catastrophe of the semi-submersion of the Sardinian-Corsican geological block that caused the death of the entire Athenian army, of the First Athens, the one that archaeologists do not know for now and consider only a legend. The sinking of Atlantis may have been caused by the sudden melting of the ice following the glaciation called Würm. Geologists are in fact known that the level of the Mediterranean Sea reached -120 meters below the current level about 14,000 years ago. : Equally well known is the so-called “Messinian salinity crisis”, during which Sardinia and Corsica were joined due to the lowering of the sea level by over one hundred metres, and it was possible to travel between them on foot. During the war that broke out between Atlantis and Greece, that is, in 9600 BC, or about 11,600 years ago, it is known to geologists that Sardinia and Corsica and a large part of the coasts currently submerged formed what appeared to be a large island, which was called in the third chapter of the Timaeus and in the Critias, by Plato, with the name of Atlantis.[125][126] At the centre of the Atlantean plain and enclosed by the current Campidano plain, there would be what was the capital of Atlantis, also known with the name of Atlantis but today known with the name of Sulcis, and which started from a hill near the small village of Santadi and Masainas and Teulada, forming concentric circles of land and sea. It is still possible to notice how, starting from Santadi, the entire urban plan develops in concentric circles, even portions of mountains. There is also a vast toponymy related to the myth of Atlantis. In fact, as Usai points out,near Santadi there are many places whose name recalls the hot and cold water sources created by Poseidon, who according to Usai was a simple man, probably a King, and not a God. Poseidon, placed in the Capital of Atlantis a hot water source and a cold water source. In fact, even today there are some hamlets of towns called ” Acquacadda.” (Hot Water, in the Sardinian Campidanese language), S’acqua callenti de basciu. (The Hot Water below, in Sardinian Campidanese) and S’Acqua Callenti de Susu (The Hot Water above, also this in the Sardinian Campidanese dialect, the dialectal variant of the Sardinian language spoken in the south of Sardinia), while in the nearby town of Siliqua there is still today the cold water source of Zinnigas. Also in Siliqua, a small town also located in the province of Cagliari, there is still the “Castello d’Acquafredda”, currently known for the famous story told by Dante Alighieri about Count Ugolino, who had stayed there according to a legend passed down orally. The castle of Acquafredda takes its name from the medieval town of Acquafredda, which disappeared a few centuries ago, whose name recalls the cold water source of Poseidon, while in the province of Carbonia Caput Acquas insists on the theme of water. Furthermore, Usai points out, the tridents of Poseidon have been found carved in the Neolithic and Paleolithic rocks found near the town of Laconi, in Sardinia. Next to Santadi there is a town called Narcao, which has two hamlets, called “Is Sais Superiore” and “Is Sais Inferiore”; this is a clear reference according to Usai, to the city of Sais in Egypt, where the high priest Sonchis revealed the story of Atlantis to Solon, the famous Greek politician. Furthermore, Sais is also a Sardinian surname. There are still two other interesting toponyms: Acqua Callentis[127] (another way of saying “Hot Water” in the Campidanese and Sulcitano Sardinian dialects), also known by the name of “Is Perdas” (i.e. “The Stones”): this location also recalls the sources of hot and cold water placed by Poseidon in the Platonic myth; and the locality of Terresoli (a crasis of Terra De Soli, or Land of the Sun in Sardinian Campidanese and Sulcitano) which closely resembles the name of Eliopolis, another city linked to the myth of Atlantis: in fact while Eliopolis in Greek means City of the Sun, Terresoli [128] means Land of the Sun. The locality of Piscinas is also found in Sulcis and takes up the theme of flooding: in Sardinian language in fact this term is used to indicate a place where there has been an enormous stagnation of water. Usai’s theory, which takes the name of “Sardinian-Corsican Atlantean paradigm”, states that the species of elephants that Plato speaks of in Timaeus and Critias is that of the Mammuthus Lamarmorai, present on the Sardinian-Corsican island which is currently half-submerged,and of which remains have been found in at least three places in present-day Sardinia: in Gonnesa, in Sinis and in Alghero. At the end of the story of Atlantis, in the Timaeus, Plato states that the island was surrounded by mud that prevented navigation: this would have been caused by the erosion of the Sardinian-Corsican continental shelf by millennia of undertow. The island of Atlantis was the largest of all, according to Plato: in fact the Sardinian-Corsican geological block was an island of emerged land and is truly the largest of all those in the Western Mediterranean, which according to Usai was called the Atlantic Ocean even before papyrus and scrolls dealing with geography were made, which is why no memory remains, and geography was subsequently modified. In Atlantis there were the oldest old people: in fact Sardinia, which would only be an emerged plateau of Atlantis, is still famous throughout the world for its people of centenarians[129], in particular the population of the blue zone of Perdas De Fogu[130] [131] [132] [133]. Atlantis was rich in minerals, and in fact the mines of Sulcis are the oldest in Europe[134]. The Atlanteans were “builders of towers” according to the Platonic dialogues: and in fact over 7000 nuraghi are present and studied and hundreds of others are continuously discovered but not excavated. Usai also states that the ancient literary text of the Meropide deals precisely with the island of Atlantis as a semi-submerged Sardinian-Corsican block: currently, however, all the official texts consider the Meropide only a parody of the Platonic texts. The discovery in the rock shelter at Su Carroppu di Sirri of three ancient Sardinian individuals[135], two of whom have given the possibility of analyzing ancient DNA, has shown that this population of Sulcis does not date back to 8000 years ago as initially believed[136], but rather dates back to 11000 years ago[137], and the war between Atlantis and early Greece mentioned in the Timaeus and Critias broke out, according to Plato, 11600 years ago: this would seem to be a confirmation of the presence of a Sardinian population in the period in which the story of Atlantis is placed. The DNA found is different from the DNA of the Neolithic population that colonized the island of Sardinia about three thousand years later, and the analysis has shown that these populations of 11000 years ago preyed on marine resources, that is, they fed on seafood and lived along the coasts, in accordance with Usai’s Atlantean paradigm. Plato states that in Atlantis they built using stones of three colours: black, red and white; the black stones would be obsidian[138] [139], in particular that of Monte Arci[140], which Sardinia has exported throughout Europe for thousands of years and slate, the red rocks would be those of Arbatax[141] and Carloforte and others submerged in the Sardinian-Corsican paleocoasts.In the summer of 2024, archaeological works at the Nuraghe Miali of Pompu[142] brought to light black basalt ashlars which show the Nuragic habit of creating chromatic effects in architecture through the alternation of stones of various colours, in accordance with what Plato stated. The same phenomenon was found and certified at the Nuraghe Arrubiu[143] and the Nuraghe Palmavera and the Nuragic Palace of Barumini. The Pillars of Hercules would be the Faraglione Antiche Colonne of Carloforte[144] [145] as proposed by Giorgio Saba, still existing and of very ancient history[146], and not the Strait of Gibraltar as believed up to now by most theories: beyond the Pillars of Hercules of Carloforte therefore, there was a narrow port, namely the small port formed by the islands of Sant’Antioco and San Pietro, and outside this small port there was the real sea, called in Timaeus and Critias also the Atlantic Ocean, but today called the Western Mediterranean. The Sardinian-Corsican Atlantean paradigm proposes that the Atlanteans populated the Sardinian-Corsican continental platform currently semi-submerged in the Mediterranean, forced then to migrate when the eustatic level rose drastically [147], perhaps due to repeated Meltwater Pulses[148] [149], distributed over several millennia. These migrations would then take various names: Sumerians and Vascons, among others, giving rise to the megalithic civilization along the coasts of all Europe. In support of this Usai states that these peoples have agglutinative Semitic languages, an “Atlantean” characteristic; the Basques in fact have prehistoric carnival figures similar to the Sardinian ones because both peoples “come from Atlantis”, that is, from the semi-submerged Sardinian-Corsican geological block: the Joaldun[150], the Mamuthones, the Boes and the Merdules. Furthermore, the Basques would have brought the tradition of the bulls described by Plato in Timaeus and Critias, bulls that were venerated and respected in Atlantis, to Pamplona in Navarre the use of the Encierro, which then changed into the Spanish bullfight.also called Atlantic Ocean in Timaeus and Critias, but today called Western Mediterranean.
