Kungenzeka ukuthi besibheka kuzo zonke izindawo ezingalungile ukuthola indawo ye- idolobha elilahlekile lase-Atlantis njengoba wonke umuntu ecabanga ukuthi kufanele kube ngaphansi kolwandle ndawana thize, njengasekujuleni koLwandlekazi i-Atlantic noma uLwandle iMedithera. Kunalokho, yayingatholakala ogwadule lwase-Afrika; futhi ibicashe obala sonke lesi sikhathi.
Abanye abacwaningi baye bahlongoza, izinsalela zedolobha elinezinsimbi uPlato akhuluma ngalo ngekhulu lesine BC zingatholakala ezweni lase-Afrika iMauritania - ukwakheka okuyinqaba okwaziwa ngokuthi Isakhiwo se-Richat, noma 'Iso Le-Sahara', kungaba indawo yangempela yedolobha lenganekwane.
Akubona nje ubukhulu kanye nesimo esiqondile u-Plato athi kwakuyi-stadia ecishe ibe ngu-127, noma amakhilomitha angu-23.5 (38 miles) ububanzi kanye nesiyingi - kodwa izintaba azichaza enyakatho zingabonakala ngokucacile esithombeni sesathelayithi, njengoba kungase kube nobufakazi basendulo. imifula, uPlato athi yayigeleza izungeze idolobha.
Ososayensi abakatholi kahle ukuthi yini eyadala isakhiwo seRichat, ethi nakuba ibukeka njenge-crater, abukho ubufakazi banoma yimuphi umthelela.
UPlato wathi i-Atlantis yabhujiswa “ngosuku olulodwa nobusuku beshwa” futhi yacwila ngaphansi kwamagagasi. Irekhodi lesayensi liyakhombisa ukuthi umhlaba uke waba nezimo zezulu ezinkulu eminyakeni eyi-11,500 edlule, lapho i-Atlantis kuthiwa yanyamalala. Ososayensi baphinde baveze isithombe sesathelayithi esifana nemiphumela ye-tsunami engafani nanoma ubani ophilayo namuhla.
Ingabe sonke isifunda se-Richat Structure asibukeki sengathi siqhunyiswe amanzi agelezayo noma i-tsunami?
Iningi lezazi ezivamile likholelwa ukuthi indaba ka-Atlantis yayimane nje iyinganekwane. Emashumini eminyaka amuva nje, izindawo eziningi ziye zakhethwa njengezingosi ezingaba khona - okuhlanganisa iCrete, i-Atlantic kanye ne-Antarctica. Ucabanga ukuthi, 'Iso LeSahara' kungaba idolobha lasenganekwaneni elilahlekile lase-Atlantis?
