Around 365 B.C, in ancient Greece, the great teacher Plato told a story about a place called

Atlantis. Plato described Atlantis as a continent in the Atlantic Ocean. He said it had been the

home of powerful people who were destroyed when the continent was swallowed by the sea.

Ever since Plato’s time, people have wondered if the story about Atlantis was really true.

Was there ever such a place as Atlantis? During the Middle Ages, many people believed in the

legend of Atlantis. Some men even made voyages to find the “lost continent”. Later, most

people believed Atlantis to be just a myth. Scientists could find to no evidence to show that

such a place had ever existed.

Ideas change in time, however, for now some scientists think that Atlantis might have

been a real place. A Greek professor has offered a new theory. He says that Atlantis was not a

continent in the Atlantic Ocean an island called Thera in the Aegean Sea. The professor says

that 3500 years ago much of Thera collapsed into the sea a volcano erupted. He thinks that

before the explosion Thera had been the home of people called Minoans. The Minoans were

sea traders who ruled the Aegean Sea from 2000 B.C. to 1250 B.C.

Scientists who have come to investigate Thera have found an accident city buried beneath

volcanic ash and stone. It appears that the people who lives in the city had an advanced

civilization. They were probably Mimoans.

Is Thera the “lost continent” of Atlantis? No one may ever know for certain. Atlantis may

emain a riddle without an answer.
