Notes

Atlantis is a mythical lost island-continent and city first described by the philosopher Plato in his dialogues Timaeous and Critias around the year 360 B.C. It was described as being located "beyond the pillars of Heracles (Hercules)" and existed "9,000 years before the time of Solon": approximately 9500 B.C. It was described as a great naval power with advanced technology. The nation of Atlantis attempted to invade the Greek City-State of Athens, but failed due to Athens societal organization. Atlantis would then sink beneath the waves "in a single day and night of misfortune." Though most consider Atlantis to be the subject of a myth, theories about it's possible existance abound. These range from theories that Atlantis was in fact a civilization from the New World to being an extraterrestrial race of beings. Atlantis is also the inspiration for a number of fictional tales, ranging from Renaissance Myth to Science-Fiction television programing.
