As always, this website is committed to a no-nonsense down to earth approach to the problem of the existence of the land of Atlantis, including discussions of its culture, people, language and technology. If you are familiar with the Quest for Atlantis website, but haven't looked at it for awhile, you might want to have another look. New pages have been added, and old ones improved with additional data. Wording has been improved in a number of cases in an attempt to clarify the material offered. This website is dedicated to presenting the evidence as clearly and succinctly as possible, with a view to establishing a viable relationship between the findings of reputable scientists and Plato's famous lost Atlantis.

In order to get a clear idea of what this website is all about, I suggest clicking on the Summary icon--the rest should fall into place. There is little attempt to pursue every myth and legend (worldwide) which might relate to the lost civilization--other websites do an excellent job of that. I have centered my efforts on presenting scientific facts from scientific sources in order to illustrate that Plato's story can be taken seriously by professionals. Great care has been taken throughout this website to insure that all information here presented is totally accurate. For those unfamiliar with anthropological and geological terminology, a Glossary is now provided.
