Maybe we could instead try looking for the Athenians who defeated the Atlanteans in battle, and whose army was subsequently swallowed by the earth along with the Atlanteans? Athough the Athenian army has vanished, there should be evidence of a large bronze age settlement from which they originated.
So, any huge bronze age settlements in the Athens areas that can be positively dated to 9,000BC?
But if Plato made up all the stuff about Athens being around at the same time and defeating the Atlantean army, is also just possible he made the rest up as well

I suppose its irony that one hunt so hard for the one location that doesnt exist (I mean its submerged) when there should be so many remnants throughout the Med.

1. Jericho is about the only thing pointed to when talking about this.
2. Jericho does not predate the disaster we claim happened.
3. Craters tend to fade over time. Strong points are expected to be below sea level and therefore currently underwater.

What disaster selectively erased all evidence of bronze age culture from 10,000 years ago and nothing else? And in the process left no geological calling card either?

Primer on the paleocontact-conspiracy-theory: Religion and Power-Politics has destroyed most hints of it.
It is impossible to be an Atlantologist without also being a conspiracy-theorist.
Without a deliberate cover-up, none of our rantings would make sense.

There are any number of things known about the ancient past that the Church (for example) tried to keep hidden.

That's because information in the open is the only known information.

So, there's no evidence for Atlantis or the Athenians whom they fought (or, indeed, any other bronze age peoples living anywhere in the world 10,000 years ago) because all such evidence has been deliberately destroyed. We know it has been destroyed because there is no evidence to be found.
Question is: were the Atlanteans in league with the fluffy pink bunnies? Did they help set up the fast food franchises on the Moon? There's no evidence they did, of course, but obviously any evidence would have been destroyed by the Vatican so that proves nothing. Indeed, the fact that even Plato made no mention of the fluffy pink bunnies shows just how wide reaching the conspiracy was - Plato was clearly 'persuaded' not to mention them on pain of death! It seems quite likely that the same secret order that 'leant' on Plato (and were probably responsible for murdering Socrates - covering the act up to look like suicide) are still around today. Possibly German. Which would also explain both Hitler and the Nazi's fascination with the subject and is proven by the fact that the head of the Vatican - who to this day surpress all evidence of Atlantis and the fluffy pink bunnies - is none other than a German!

O.J. Simpson may have commit murder but they didnt find enough evidence to lock him away.
