This book delves into the ancient legend of Atlantis, exploring its possible historical basis and its connection to widespread diluvian traditions found across the globe. The author meticulously examines Plato's account of Atlantis, comparing it to other historical and mythological sources, including the Periplus of Hanno, a Carthaginian explorer's record. By juxtaposing these narratives, the author unveils intriguing parallels and proposes that Atlantis may not be solely a mythical creation but rather a reflection of real historical events and locations.
