A look at the lost city of Atlantis through the eyes of an impassioned hobbyist. I have over 20 years of research into ancient history and mythology. I have also been unhealthily obsessed since I was young and have greedily absorbed any and all information that could even whisper Atlantis. The purpose of this podcast is to spark the imagination of people new to Atlantis and introduce a new concept to the veterans. I want to combine the myths with the current science and archeological evidence.

Atlantis Unearthed: Tracing the Tamanrasett's Tale to a Lost Civilization

The Search for a Lost Civilization in Spain's Andalusia Region
"Reimagining Atlantis" is a podcast that takes you on a journey to explore the mystery surrounding the lost city of Atlantis. In this podcast, we will discuss the latest research and findings on the possible locations of Atlantis, the civilizations that may have inhabited the city, and how it could have met its catastrophic end.
This episode delves into the intriguing discovery made by archaeologists and geologists in Spain's Andalusia region in 2009 and 2010. Using state-of-the-art technology, they surveyed the Donana National Park, revealing a long-hidden inland sea and scattered ruins of ancient villages, believed to have Roman or Greek roots.
The story of the submerged city of Atlantis has fascinated people for centuries, and we will explore various theories and locations where Atlantis could have existed. We will delve into the work of researchers, such as the American architect who used sonar to reveal man-made walls in the Mediterranean between Cyprus and Syria, and the Swedish researchers who claimed the city lay on the Dogger Bank in the North Sea, which was submerged in the Bronze Age.
One of the most exciting discoveries made by British specialists is the presence of a greenish-blue patina coating on the ancient ruins, which has been found to be made of an old alloy of metals. This patina on the buildings and architecture of the cities and temples that make up this complex is described in great detail by Plato. We will discuss the significance of this discovery and what it could reveal about the ancient civilization that once existed there.
The podcast also features an interview with Tim Akers, head of research at Merlin Burrows and a maritime historian, who claimed that a 'scientific study' of material collected from Spain revealed indications of both ancient technological metallurgy and a type of cement never seen before. He also shares how his team discovered the memorial cities created in the likeness of Atlantis by its inhabitants following the city's likely destruction by a tsunami, and how this discovery gave him confidence that Atlantis was buried in the mud flats.
Join us on "Reimagining Atlantis" as we dive deep into the mystery of the lost city and explore the possibilities of its existence.
