Atlantis, Lost City Swamped By Tsunami, May Be Found

NORTHAMPTON, Mass (Reuters) - A U.S.-led research team may have finally located the lost city of Atlantis, the legendary metropolis believed swamped by a tsunami thousands of years ago in mud flats in southern Spain.

"This is the power of tsunamis," head researcher Richard Freund told Reuters.

"It is just so hard to understand that it can wipe out 60 miles inland, and that's pretty much what we're talking about," said Freund, a University of Hartford, Connecticut, professor who lead an international team searching for the true site of Atlantis.

1. Wow, that just made me think of this old song...

CALIFORNIA EARTHQUAKE
by John Hartford

Well, they tell me they've exploded the underground blast
And what's about to happen's gonna happen at last

Chorus:
That's the way it appears
And they tell me the fault line runs right through here
If that may be, then that may be
What's gonna happen's gonna happen to me
That's the way it appears
And they tell me the fault line runs right through here

Mother Nature's got gas, her diet's gone stale
See here acid indigestion on the Richter scale

Atlantis will rise, Sunset Boulevard will fall
Where the beach used to be won't be nothing at all

4. Has anyone read Graham Hancock?

I believe there met be countless cities lying under the oceans that we know nothing about... probably a whole unknown epoch of human history.
