Mystery of "The lost city of Atlantis".

 The lost city of Atlantis is a famous city described in ancient Greek texts and mythology. According to the ancient Greek philosopher Plato, Atlantis was a powerful and advanced civilization that existed about 9,000 years before his time, which would have been about 11,000 years ago. Plato's account of Atlantis comes from his dialogues "Timaeus" and "Critias". According to Plato, Atlantis was located beyond the "Pillars of Hercules", which are often associated with the Strait of Gibraltar. Atlantis was said to be a large island with a magnificent capital, also called Atlantes, ruled by a line of kings. The city was described as rich in resources, technologically advanced, and a highly organized society. It was said to consist of concentric rings of water and land, with canals connecting them. However, despite Plato's vivid description of Atlantis, it is widely believed to be a fictional story or allegory rather than an actual historical account. T
