The Lost City of Atlantis=Mauritania?

[Premeditated]

Uh no. Because Atlantis is a European fiction. Africans won't "take back our culture" by trying to prove that fairy tales Europeans believed are true

if you watch, Plato learned about Atlantis through a relative from a previous generation, who had went to Egypt and that is where he learned that Egypt was once a colony of Atlantis ...
but like I said, whether it existed or not and if there were africans on there, I don't think they would know of it as Atlantis.

So the Greek [Plato] says...

Are you suggesting that Plato was a White Supremacist?

I’m suggesting not to trust European derived sources

Seen this gem of a vid. And was gonna make a thread on it. What I think? Africa is largely ignored.

Anyways wont be able to go in depth as I've been busy off the coli. @Jammer22 @The Odum of Ala Igbo yall thoughts?

Was about to roll my eyes on the vid till I kept listening.

Went from to to toand then

It's compelling as far the material evidence towards the tail end of the video. The geography and location (It's marked as being near or by the sea beyond the pillars of Hercules.) is interesting. Whether true or not, I wouldn't be too mad if there was an Atlantomania that kicks off and makes folks Sahelopliles or Saharaphiles. I'd love the prestige boost to west Africa if so.

Just think, Atlantis has collapsed, and the steadily expanding Saharan pump sends Africans North, east, and south.



Think of the commercialization Africans would eat off of brehs. Hell, we could too.

P.S

Apparently, this is an old map of Africa f, looks like Latin to me. Anybody notice something on the map near the location of interest? Africa is on the right side.

too bad Mauritania is one of the most backward country there is. Now it's controlled by arabs from the North.

You don't think Senegal or Mali are counter-weights at all to the extremists? I mean that whole area badly needs some excavation and the prestige and money that could pour in if they all get their act together would be worth it.

Yeah, but all that excavation and prestige won't come from Africa or done by Africans. It'll be foreigners. More colonizers taking our history to their museums. That ties back to what @The Odum of Ala Igbo was saying.

I can hope.

 

[JahFocus CS]

looks like some Chinese person threw up a video about this three years ago

 

[Knicksman20]

I was very skeptical before the video started but listening & seeing this changed my total perception. From the clues to the location. This is definitely a must see

 

[Jammer22]

Just wanted to make it clear I don't completely believe the idea, I just want west/north africans to benefit from it anyway in some form.

Maybe you fukkers should actually read Plato’s Critias before you start talking like a flock of idiots

Critias was the name of the Greek tyrant who overtook Athens and led to its ruin. Atlantis sinking was a metaphor for how democracies crumble under demogogues

The fact that humans care more about the fantasy elements than the actual moral implications explains why there’s a Nazi demagogue in the White House, but people would rather use Plato to hypothesize about shyt buried in the sand.

Maybe Plato had the first bars. He used the events of Atlantis as a metaphor for what was happening in Athenian democracy. Just like Push uses cocaine and the game to talk about the struggle. Atlantis bars the predecessor of cocaine rap?
