Today, let’s take a look at the 11 unsolved mysteries of the ages, see what their stories are, and why they have become mysteries.
The Mystery of Atlantis Civilization
Atlantis is a legendary ancient civilization that was said to have thrived and possessed highly developed technology and culture, but sank to the bottom of the sea and disappeared in a major disaster. The earliest record of Atlantis comes from the two dialogues of the ancient Greek philosopher Plato, Themaeus and Critias, in which he described the geographical location, history, society, politics, religion, and other aspects of Atlantis, as well as its war and destruction with Athens.
Plato claimed that he heard this story from Egyptian priests, but he did not provide any conclusive evidence.
Since then, Atlantis has become an eternal mystery, attracting the interest and imagination of countless explorers, scholars, writers, artists, and others. Some people believe that Atlantis was a real civilization that existed, some believe that Atlantis was just a fable fabricated by Plato, and some believe that Atlantis is an alias for other known or unknown civilizations. There are various theories and hypotheses about the location, form, characteristics, and influence of Atlantis, but none of them have been conclusively confirmed.
