It must be nice to live in a world unfettered by reality
The claim that the lower part of the map portrays the Princess Martha Coast of Queen Maud Land, Antarctic, and the Palmer Peninsular, is reasonable. We find that this is the most logical and in all probability the correct interpretation of the map.
it has an elephant on the bit thats supposed to be antartica

Who’s to say that we have not found the evidence of a far older civilization already?
Yonaguni is a small island south-west of Okinawa in the Japanese archipelago. In 1988, scuba divers led by Kihachiro Aratake discovered an enormous stone structure on the seabed off the coast of Yonaguni.
A team of Canadian and Cuban researchers have discovered the remains of what may be a 6,000-year-old city submerged in deep ocean waters off the western coast of Cuba.

thats true it was ice free 40,000 years ago
unfortunately this means that the claim that any map depicts this was rubbish. because there simply wasn't anyone around making maps at that point. thats even if you do believe in Atlantis which was 10,000bce

Ruins of a destroyed NY would remain detectable to an archaeologist with todays level of training up to the point the area was subducted under a continent, ie hundreds of millions of years from now.
