Hey great find, I'll be sure to watch that website, would be intresting to see what they find, if anything.

Not that I'm trying to disprove it (I actually believe there was an Atlantis) but I read this article in one of the tabloids at the supermarket. No joke. Had the same exact picture as well. Evne had a picture of ocean depth and how the beahc of "atlantis" is still visible. (By looking at the subtle discoloration in the ocean in that area)

Interesting read though. Who knows, might hold some merit.

They had the exact same picture? How odd. I Think that these people are going the right way about it. Sombody needs to prove/disprove the existence of Atlantis once and for all.

I'm pretty sure it was last week's sun. The funny thing is, sometimes their articles have merit. I have seen things in their paper weeks before seeing them in more *respectable* news channels.

I've already told you where it is...just that there isn't much to see there anymore....(Altiplano, Brazil....South America)....

I really don't think it's a hoax. I saw an interview with two people from the team on the news today. If it is a hoax then it's a pretty elaborate one with no clear benifits to anyone really...?

they found atlantis found real artifacts does it really matter whether UNESCO looking at it or not!!!!!!!!!!!

They havn't found anything yet dude,but you are right. regardless of who is sponsering it and who isn't (as long as it's not some ellaborate NWo government it's still a great investigation into one of the worlds great mysteries.

I'm sure the interviewers were real, and I know there's several "let's find Atlantis" expeditions. But the fact that they claim it's UNESCO funded when UNESCO doesn't seem to have anything to do with it is extremely suspicious.

Do you have any proof eaither way though? I might look into it. UNESCO do fund these sorts of things though i think.

Hmm. I may have to eat a shoe or two, here. I do NOT see anything in the news about UNESCO, and it certainly doesn't look like a UNESCO funded project -- but folks have gotten money for odder research projects from various places.

Jacques Collina-Girard is an academician, and that his Atlantis theory is certainly of interest in some of the scholarly communities. I'd tend to disagree with him that there were folktales of Atlantis that Plato heard -- but I can be proven quite wrong. I do think that if there's something there, it's not an "advanced civilization" but only a civilization that is on par with the others of 11,000 years ago.

Has anybody read "The Flower Of Life" By Drunvalo Melchizedek. Well in this book I read that Atlantis use to exist around Birmini Island. When Atlantis existed the whole east coast of the U.S did not exist. On the map the island lied between the U.S and Europe. I definitely recommend for people to read "The Flower of Life" because it will answer many question. The really is an eye opener.

sounds interesting. That is a completely different location to where they are looking for it though. They are following Platos directions. Many of the things that Plato wrote where true so they are hoping he is right about this too. It's also in an area where many islands became submerged after the iceage.
