If Atlantis were real, it would significantly impact our understanding of history, archaeology, and perhaps even geology. Here are some possible implications:

1. **Historical Revisions**: The discovery of Atlantis would require historians to re-evaluate ancient texts and legends, particularly those of Plato, who described Atlantis in his dialogues "Timaeus" and "Critias." Historians would need to reconcile the new evidence with existing records.

2. **Archaeological Findings**: The site would likely offer rich archaeological evidence, including artifacts, structures, and perhaps written records that could provide insights into a previously unknown civilization. This could alter our understanding of ancient technology, culture, and society.

3. **Geological Insights**: Finding Atlantis would prompt geologists to study the geological events that led to its submersion or disappearance. This could provide new information about ancient climate change, tectonic activity, or catastrophic events like tsunamis.

4. **Myth and Legend Validation**: The discovery could validate other ancient myths and legends, suggesting they may contain more historical truth than previously believed. This would encourage a re-examination of other historical myths.

5. **Cultural Impact**: The rediscovery of Atlantis would capture the global imagination, influencing literature, media, and popular culture. It could inspire new stories, films, and scholarly works.

6. **Technological Advances**: If Atlanteans possessed advanced technology, as some legends suggest, studying their artifacts could lead to new technological developments or a better understanding of ancient engineering.

7. **Interdisciplinary Research**: The discovery would likely prompt collaboration between historians, archaeologists, geologists, oceanographers, and other scientists, leading to interdisciplinary research projects and new academic fields of study.

Overall, the discovery of Atlantis would be a monumental event, reshaping various academic disciplines and influencing both scholarly and popular perceptions of ancient history.

Great article.

Authorities claim that their scientism is the only truth. They must defend their lies, and defend them they do, to the point that their coverups border on the absured.

Question Faucci and you are questioning "science" itself. This you are not allowed to do. Questioning historical narratives is met with resistance. In many cases ridicule. No one wants to be ridiculed, so going along is the path of least resistance.

Have you seen what happens to whistleblowers?

I don't get it.

For the sake of argument, imagine for a moment that Hancock was right and there was a prehistoric civilization of at most renaissance levels of technological sophistication* which was destroyed by the Younger Dryas event?

How does this influence modern politics? Sure it'd be interesting and a bunch of history textbooks would have to be rewritten, but what about it would be so important to the modern world to motivate a massive conspiratorial coverup on the part of the status quo?

* Any more advanced and they'd have had a use for and therefore dug up and expended all the oil necessary to make technological infrastructure which could be extracted without preexisting technological infrastructure and our industrial civilization wouldn't have been possible.

I also find the Myth of Atlantis fascinating. I came across a book…

The Apocalypse of Yajnavalkya.

By Library of Cerne’

It does mention Plato’s Timaeus and Critias and the kingdom of Atlantis.

This book written by an ancient sage is quite the journey of humans viewed far differently than the banal regurgitation of public education orthodoxy. It certainly challenged my beliefs.
