It was written in 9619 BC, about 9,250 years before Plato's writing. This ancient document is believed to be the oldest document that has survived almost intact down through the ages. Further, archeological finds and scientific evidence provide convincing proof that Atlantis really did exist; Atlantis was real.

It was written in 9619 BC, about 9,250 years before Plato's writing. Further, we have assembled enough evidence in terms of archeological finds and scientific facts to provide convincing proof that Atlantis really did exist. And we have found the remains. We structure the evidence to answers three basic questions: how was it created; did it leave evidence; how was it destroyed?
