Atlantis, the mythical city, rumored to exist in the Atlantic Ocean, is claimed to be located in Morocco in recent speculations.
In a captivating twist of ancient history and modern technology, a German computer programmer named Michael Hubner has ignited a debate over the location of the mythical city of Atlantis. Hubner, who passed away in 2013, believed that Atlantis was not a mere myth but a real civilization that may have been located in the Souss-Massa plain of Morocco.
This intriguing theory, detailed in Mark Adams' recently released book "Meet Me In Atlantis", has garnered attention despite the lack of widespread recognition or archaeological validation. Atlantis, as described by the ancient Greek philosopher Plato, was a powerful and advanced civilization that supposedly existed in the distant past but was lost in a catastrophic event. Numerous theories about its possible location have been proposed, but none have been definitively proven through archaeological findings.
Hubner's quest began in the Souss-Massa plain, about 100 miles south of Marrakesh, Morocco. He discovered a natural depression, a desert basin surrounded by foothills, with a small mound in its centre. This small mound resembles the circular city described by Plato as the centre of the Atlantean capital.
In his search, Hubner used a mapping program to analyse the data and identified the possible location of Atlantis to be inland on the coastline of Morocco. He based his search on 51 attributes described in Plato's writings about Atlantis, including the presence of elephants and mountains to the north.
However, archaeologists have shown little interest in exploring the area where Hubner found the small mound. The absence of specific information about Hubner's theory makes it impossible to assess whether it has held up in archaeological investigations. If his theory exists, it would require detailed archaeological research and evidence to validate any claims about the Souss-Massa plain as the location of Atlantis.
Despite the scepticism, Hubner's theory has not gone unnoticed. The existence of Atlantis, as suggested by Hubner, is a topic discussed in Mark Adams' book "Meet Me In Atlantis". Finding Atlantis is considered by many to be a fool's errand, but for those who believe, Hubner's theory offers a glimmer of hope.
Whether Atlantis was a real civilization lost to time or a myth originating from the works of Greek philosopher Plato remains a mystery. The debate continues, fueled by the intrigue of the unknown and the determination of those who seek answers. As new evidence emerges and theories are proposed, the search for Atlantis continues, and the enigma of this lost city remains as captivating as ever.
The intriguing theory presented by Michael Hubner, as discussed in Mark Adams' book "Meet Me In Atlantis", suggests that the mythical city of Atlantis could be found in the Souss-Massa plain of Morocco, a potential lifestyle change for those who might uncover its truth. Despite the absence of widespread archaeological validation, Hubner's travel to Morocco and analysis of the small mound discovered in the area offers a unique perspective on the ongoing debate about the location of Atlantis.
