Herald de Paris: Guarding the location’s coordinates carefully, the project’s leader, who wishes to remain anonymous at this time, says the city could be thousands of years old; possibly even pre-dating the ancient Egyptian pyramids, at Giza.
A group of ‘undersea archaeologists’ have become the latest to claim they have uncovered the lost city of Atlantis.
The scientists – who have refused to identify themselves – have released a series of images taken beneath the Caribbean.
They insist the snaps show what appear to be the ruins of a city that could pre-date Egypt’s pyramids, which appeared after 2600BC.
They even told a French newspaper that one of the structures appears to be a pyramid.
Now the anonymous group wants to raise funds to explore the secret location where the images were taken.
They would not reveal the exact location, however, saying only that it was somewhere in the Caribbean Sea.
The claims have raised eyebrows on the internet, though sceptics refrained from debunking them entirely – just in case.
The legend of Atlantis, a city of astonishing wealth, knowledge and power that sank beneath the ocean waves, has fascinated millions.
Time and time again hopes have been raised that the lost city has been found – only for those hopes to be dashed against the evidence (or lack thereof).
Its location – or at least the source of the legend – remained a tantalising mystery.
In 1997, Russian scientists claimed to have found Atlantis 100 miles off Land’s End.
In 2000 a ruined town was found under 300ft of water off the north coast of Turkey in the Black Sea.
The area is thought to have been swamped by a great flood around 5000BC, possibly the floods referred to in the Old Testament.
In 2004 an American architect used sonar to reveal man-made walls a mile deep in the Mediterranean between Cyprus and Syria.
In 2007 Swedish researchers claimed the city lay on the Dogger Bank in the North Sea, which was submerged in the Bronze Age.
And as recently as February of this year, what appeared to be grid-like lines that resembled city streets were spotted on Google Earth – in the ocean off the coast of Africa.
Sadly Google itself quickly debunked the suggestion, explaining that the lines were left by a boat as it collected data for the application.
‘Bathymetric (sea-floor) data is often collected from boats using sonar to take measurements of the sea-floor,’ a spokesman said.
‘The lines reflect the path of the boat as it gathers the data.’

Who knows? But all these theories are so interesting… I saw somewhere awhile ago that this researcher had a theory that Florida IS the long lost continent of Atlantis. He said that the measurements are EXACT, and that all the research as far back as Plato prove it. I never did get a chance to read the book, but as a native Floridian, it seems very interesting.
And yet I had someone tell me the exact coordinates align with Detroit . . . and it is in ruins again as predicted . . . go figure!!
They won’t reveal the location’s coordinates!? Aren’t they listed on the lower left-hand corner of the map?

I’m packing my toothbrush as we speak! But not to go to Atlantis!
Is this really news?
81 is not a valid latitude. However, there -is- something very interesting at +31° 21′ 38.56, -24° 27′ 4.15 off the coast of Morocco.
The Caribbean has been explored, mapped, and studied by satellite to the point we know every square inch of it. Very doubtful a fully developed city is sitting under that water undiscovered. This article is a huge joke. :(
Could this possibly prove the flood of Noah’s time?
I don’t know if Atlantis exists – or if it will ever be found if it does exist – but there are many ruins currently known that are under many feet of water and the timing points to a global flood. Do not think the archaeologists and scientists who push the joke of evolution can ever be trusted with facts. There is a tremendous amount of evidence for the global flood of Noah and the rebirth of this planet by God – for a second Adam called Noah. Dinosaurs didn’t die out 65 million years ago as they have many dinosaur bones that are NOT fossils (rock) but still have blood (hemoglobin cells) in the tissue. There are dinosaurs still living is the dense, unexplored tropics of Africa. Look up Trey Smith on YOuTube.
the tittle of the book is Atlantis The Lost Continent Finally Found, Author : Arysio Nunes dos Santos
what I know from the news, Atlantis finally found in Indonesia (said the brazillian scientist). as Indonesian i am proud of it, if it’s true..
