Ancient Mysteries: Atlantis - The Lost Civilization

Take a riveting look at the legend that has sparked the imagination of historical scholars for centuries as A&E's Ancient Mysteries explores the lost civilization of Atlantis. Originally referenced in Plato's dialogues around the year 360 BC, Atlantis has been rumored to have been the dwelling place of everything from average humans, to larger-than-life giants, and even extraterrestrials - yet despite centuries of research into the matter, definitive proof of Atlantis' existence has yet to be discovered. Did Atlantis truly exist? If so, who were the beings that populated this mythical, Atlantic Ocean island? In addition to exploring the possibilities that Bimini, Santorini, Troy, or the Canary Islands may in fact harbor the answers to this age-old question, filmmakers also explore the possibility that Atlantis may have already been discovered and perhaps even excavated. ~ Jason Buchanan, All Movie Guide
