Is this Atlantis?

hi,this post rocks stars and flags,
after looking at this on goggle earth i went on the assumption that this was a temple at the BASE of the underwater mountinrage,mostlikly iceage when water levels where lowwer,OR, the platemovment might have lowered it into the water.any way seraching around the whole of the mid atlantic rift i have found some facinating things,i wish i knew how to take shat and post but i dont.so ill give the corrdinates with landmark refrences.

#1 i call it the arrow [Lat: 43°27'59.54"S,,Long: 76°26'14.18"W] due west from Quellon chile in the trench befor the midatlantic ridge.It appers to point south by south west,curious anomily no matter.it is very long,mabey underwater nazca line.

#2 i call it ode to the right triangle [Lat: 22°53'49.33"N,,Long: 62°57'20.70"W]Due north from scrub island in the bahamas,in a semi plain circular region befor the mid atlanic rift.intresting anomily nonetheless.

#3 i dont have a name for this [Lat: 27° 9'33.46"N,,Long: 70° 2'33.77"W]
strange almost rubble looking area,in the burmuda triange region South
West of burmuda.

still searching atm but thought these where good to add to the findings of the post.The area in mention in the post is also just slightly south west of the pilliers of hurcules,gerbralter,goes in line with plato. ill post mor efinding later

So here are just a few - first that Box image with a wider view. There are a lot of lines around that area. But a few stick out.. the ones that are straight, the look like they cut through the ridges or even sometimes go around them..

I hope I'm doing this right..

And then one lower with what looks like a few lines and circle in the middle..

I'm no expert but these stick out to me so thought I'd share, haha.

Google Atlantis was Sonar Data

Atlantis was blip on Google Earth

"In this case, what users are seeing is an artifact of the data collection process. Bathymetric (or sea-floor terrain) data is often collected from boats using sonar to take measurements of the sea-floor...The lines reflect the path of the boat as it gathers the data. The fact that there are blank spots between each of these lines is a sign of how little we really know about the world's oceans."

Damn.....well it was exciting for a while

That official explanation itself sounds a bit off? Lets wait and see.

if i remember correctly atlantis was destroyed by an earthquake [if it ever existed] and 3 1/2 miles down is a long way , i dont think global warming raised the sea levels QUITE that much . there are some better structures off the coast of japan and off of bermuda. still it is an interesting find and hopefully more than a geographic anomally

Thank you. Yes I'd glanced at that page briefly before it was suggested I go and do some research.

Well, I admit 40 odd minutes is not a long time but so far...

The research by Adam Maloof and Galen Halverson indicates a global rebalancing 800 million years ago. I think we can discount this event for being a little too ancient.

The best reference I found to a magnetic pole shift was this article which puts the last magnetic shift at 780,000 years ago. Possibly again too ancient.

The best lead was this and its discussion of rising sea levels. There is mention of agricultural origins being discovered at 4920 feet above sea level. This is about a mile. That's either a lot of water or a lot of land shift.

Hapgood's railing against the almost now universally accepted theory of plate tectonics just really doesn't cut it, mainly due to the to the geological evidence supporting PT.

Most of the first 5 pages of the google search I conducted for "fossil-record pole-shift" were links for sites primarily concerned with 2012, Cayce, prophesy, Nibiru etc

So, if we're deciding that some cataclysmic pole shift caused Atlantis to assume its current resting place (and I'm still using the 3.5 miles figure) 18,480 feet below sea level the best evidence would date it occurring 780,000 years ago. That's a helluva good oral tradition to make it's way to Plato.

Personally, I think this has as much chance of be anything remotely Atlantian than I have of convincing you that the above is serious research. For the record my best guess is still Antartica and I'm sticking to it.

Now, if you'll excuse me it's time to zip back up this ol' mind of mine and get back to real life.

Thos structures were never "proven" to be natural , there were some theories of how, possiably, they could have been created by nature, but really, if you've seen the pictures and such, some of them are so remarkable I don't think they could have been so perfectly made by nature. And what about angles? How would nature create 90 degree right angles to eachother? Intersecting waves? Just my two pieces of semi-precious metal. about all its worth too

I don't agree with Google's explanation. I am fairly certain that line are actually there on the seafloor. They were created by the UK in the mid-89s ti study the areas suitability for dumping radioactive waste. Here's the UK document that has this information, as well as the chart of all the sonar markings made for that venture:

Wait for what? We have the map of the routes the ship(s) took while gathering sonar data in the area. A portion of these route lines match precisely with the higher-resolution strips seen in Google Earth.

And the fact that all of the sonar data gathered in the geology study is not found on Google Earth is irrelevant. The data that is included in GE is obviously from the 1987 geology study.

I'll be honest, I have no idea what this is but I just found it combing the sea floor on google earth. I really haven't got the slightest clue maybe something sunk that's on record or what but does anyone know what this is?

Iv got to say all in all this is a great google earth find. i cant believe they wouldnt jump on the opportunity of mystery and sort of push some one to go check it out, i mean it wouldnt hurt and if it was Atlantis your name would be in the History books, i would love to be named the Man who found Atlantis but i lack the funds for this adventure. I also read that there was a discovery of underwater pyramids off the gulf of mexico and the rights were sold to national geographic and then they buried it. Maybe someone owns the right to this discovery and chooses not to share it.

So the actual sonar data was collected by the UK in 1987 and used by Google Earth. I was a little confused about this, but that helps. Thanks

Grids off the coast of Cuba, photographed pre-google-earth-times:

reply to post by frailty


the size of atlantis is more like the size of antartic, this is way too small.

it said:" atlantis larger then persia and asia combined".

National Geographic has exclusive photos of those grids off cuba. The photos were sold to National Geographic so they could be mass published and then they just never ended up doing it, and she cant release them because she doesent own the rights anymore but there are structures and buildings down there. It was discovered by the americans during the cold war when they were looking for russian subs, they used to joke about how they found atlantis.

reply to post by frailty


How come no one is addressing the fact that google claims it to be sonar lines and if you google sonar lines in the ocean you can find similar pictures. Sometims a fleet of ships go out and run criss cross patterns exactly like is shown in the picturel. Seem to me once again this is just man made by boats running sonar, looking for treasure.

reply to post by Boogley


a canyon or rock on the ocean floor, if i was a betting man thats what i would have to say.. if it was a ship it would be bigger than empire state building. lol

reply to post by Nirgal


Just adding my two cents worth on the polar shift, most scientist today that have been tracking the movement of the polls say that over the past hundred years or so they have more a cpl hundred miles, so they believe that polar shifts happen over long periods of times, even decades, that its not something that you go to bed and wake up with the poles reversed.

reply to post by alienj


If you go to that area on google earth and give it a good look you can see just how strange that area is. Not to mention the 2 wall looking things that come from the side of the legs or A figure. It doesn't look like a rock to me but this is where all discussions go bad. Over weird looking rocks.

Global warming wouldn't cause the seas to rise that much, however notice in those pics there is a huge fault line running through that region. A major techtonic shift might theoretically bring the land Atlantis sat on down to the deep ocean depths.
