athens greece
standing in the center of the national
archaeological museum
is an ancient statue that is referred to
as
poseidon of melos
dated to the 2nd century bc it depicts
the greek god poseidon who
according to plato was both the ruler of
the sea
and the founder of atlantis
[Music]
we hear from plato that the gods drew
lots
and divided up the world into areas that
they would be responsible for
and poseidon receives an island
and he finds a human woman on the island
falls in love with her and they have
five sets of
twins and the first born of the first
set of twins he names atlas
and he makes him the king of atlantis
so the island is named for that atlas
as is the atlantic ocean in which the
island
was situated the original inhabitants
of atlantis the atlanteans themselves
because they
are the descendants of a god they are
like gods themselves
they're not gods on the level of
poseidon but
they are endowed with supernatural
powers
of sorts they have the best technology
they have the most resources they have
civilization crafted by a god
for their greatest benefit
were the atlanteans really supernatural
beings
with advanced technology who descended
from a god
sounds like a wild fantasy
but just like the rest of the atlanta
story
it begs the question is there any way
that it could possibly be true
plato said the atlanteans were the
children
of the gods they were hybrid beings
they were part human part god
where the gods have created this race of
beings
many people have long believed that this
story is true
but they weren't really gods they were
actually extraterrestrials
and they made it with human females and
created a hybrid race
this is a story that has all kinds of
hallmarks of genetic engineering and
the influence of an extraterrestrial
with this technology
it sounds like quite a far out idea but
there's a lot of analogies unique myths
that don't really make sense
unless you look at it from a technical
perspective
in plato's dialogues he makes it clear
that atlantis is a place of
genuine history so what
this story is actually telling us is
that there were actual beings that
came to earth and influenced human
affairs by creating
hybrid offspring
extraterrestrial hybrids
if this fascinating theory is true could
it be that the advanced technology
associated with atlantis was brought to
earth
from another world and perhaps more
profoundly
if the atlanteans dissented from
extraterrestrials
could it be that they didn't just
disappear
but actually went home
one of the big problems of atlantis is
where is it where did it go i mean
there's so many places around the world
that atlantis is said to have existed
antarctica mediterranean
cuba and other places one of the ideas
is that it actually was some kind of
spaceship
that lifted off and then would go and
land in another location
many of the stories we often find in
greek myths do talk about
these stars falling from the sky and
creating these islands
in the ocean and so atlantis could have
actually took off and left earth
cultures all around the world talk about
humans deciding
to ascend or leave the planet because of
an impending cataclysm
a coming apocalypse like a great flood
or a cataclysm
of that nature and this is what we might
be seeing in atlantis
where they know this cataclysm is coming
and they decide it's
time to move into the stars
