From Disclosed TV. This was way far too long to paste. January 13, 2014 - "Everything we've been taught about the origins of civilization may be wrong," says Danny Natawidjaja, PhD, senior geologist with the Research Centre for Geotechnology at the Indonesian Institute of Sciences. "Old stories about Atlantis and other a great lost civilizations of prehistory, long dismissed as myths by archaeologists, look set to be proved true." I'm climbing with Dr Natawidjaja up the steep slope of a 300-ft high step-pyramid set amidst a magical landscape of volcanoes, mountains and jungles interspersed with paddy fields and tea plantations a hundred miles from the city of Bandung in West Java, Indonesia.

great article, Lois!
what gets me, is history books are still not being changed.
Remember the story about Troy? of course I heard in the last couple of years that Troy had been found. Troy was actually found in the 1800's. So why was I told it was a Greek myth when I learned about it in High School??

The city of Troy is real but the book that tells about it is believed to be a mythological tale. They don't really have any evidence to support that conclusion but that is what they choose to believe.
As for the idea that an ancient advanced civilization could have existed over 10,000 years ago I would say that it is a possibility. The water level would have been several hundred feet lower back then and people have a tendency to build cities on coastlines and near water sources so any cities that existed back then would be under water today. The higher elevations would have been cold and covered with ice during the ice age which would have lead people living there to have a semi-nomadic hunter/gatherer lifestyle rather than building elaborate permanent settlements. Anything is possible.

Old and thriving civilizations could have been here long ago and wiped out by some catastrophe. Volcanoes, earthquakes, tsunami's ..etc are definite deal breakers. Because we don't know of it or it doesn't follow what we understand of history...it simply cannot be...is only our ego speaking. I think..there is much more we don't know...than what we do.

www.ancient-code.com/atlantis-the-lost-continent/?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+ancient-code%2Ffeednow+%28Ancient+Aliens%29Atlantis; The Lost Continentby Ivan Petricevic 29/01/2015 Atlantis; the mythical land of a highly advanced and powerful civilization, but what do we know about them? Atlantis was mentioned in Plato’s dialogues “Timaeus” and “Critias” even though mainstream archaeology and history have disapproved almost every single theory about this mythical land and the ancient civilization that inhabited it. Atlantis has been the topic of debate for over 2,500 years among philosophers, historians and archaeologists; It was described as a powerful and highly advanced kingdom that sank in one day and one night, never to be seen or heard from again, somewhere around 9600 B.C. according to Plato. Throughout the centuries interest in Atlantis has been very high, and locations worldwide have been proposed as the exact place where this kingdom sank. Some scholars suggest that Atlantis was located at the Greek island of Santorini; destroyed by a volcanic eruption around 1,600 B.C. But Greek philosopher Plato described Atlantis in size, as Libya and Asia Minor put together, suggesting it was located somewhere in the Atlantic, beyond the Pillars of Hercules. Researchers and scholars worldwide have discussed Atlantis proposing a number of theories and personal opinions. Ken Feder, professor in archaeology suggest several things regarding Atlantis in his book; Frauds, Myths, and Mysteries: Science and Pseudoscience in Archaeology. Professor Ken suggests that the Atlanteans were a incredibly sophisticated but evil culture that attempted to dominate the world by force. Practically, Professor Ken portrays the Atlantean civilization as a evil and war based civilization, whose only goal was conquest.
