The famous Greek philosopher was known for his intellectual rigor and his total lack of humor, unlike his successor Aristotle, who wrote a treatise on Laughing, unfortunately lost as Umberto Eco told in <em>The Name of the Rose.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>His too serious temper inclines us to think that Plato has never told nonsense. A <a class=\"link\" href=\"\/en\/mythology-deluge-cataclysm-plato-flood-atlantis-location-piri-reis-last-days-in-atlantis.html\">detailed study of the Timaeus<\/a> has shown what we may think of his descriptions, and where, according to Plato, may be submerged Atlantis. In the Timaeus, Plato compares the surface of the Atlantean empire to the Maghreb and the Middle East. It is quite possible that this empire has been very large, but the main island &#8211; or islands &#8211; were probably much smaller.<\/p>\n<p>In another dialogue, the Critias, Plato gives the main island of Atlantis more reasonable dimensions: around a central plain of 250,000 km2, a chain of mountains and the sea behind. Which is to measure, for the island of Atlantis, an area not exceeding 500 000 km2. This observation is important because it is on this point alone that Plato contradicts himself. In the Timaeus, he said:\u00a0<em>&#8220;This island was larger than\u00a0<a href=\"#\">Libya and Asia<\/a><span class=\"note\">North Africa and Middle East<\/span>\u00a0combined.&#8221;\u00a0<\/em>What represents a much greater area.<\/p>\n<p>With delight, unbelievers rush through this breach, yelping:\u00a0<em>&#8220;You see? Plato invented everything!&#8221;<\/em>\u00a0As far as they are concerned, the case is classified. Again, however, if\u00a0<em>&#8216;Libya and Asia put together&#8217;<\/em>\u00a0described the entire Atlantean empire? Plato said that the Atlantean kings reigned\u00a0<em>&#8220;over many other islands as well as some parts of the continent&#8221;<\/em>.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"clear\">\u00a0It would therefore be a main island of 500,000 km2 sunk off the Gulf of Mexico, this island is connected to America by the string of Caribbean islands.\u00a0The thesis of Atlantis in\u00a0<a class=\"link\" href=\"\/en\/unexplained-planes-and-boats-disparitions-japan-devil-sea-bermuda-s-triangle.html\">the Bermuda Triangle<\/a>\u00a0it is largely confirmed. Later, Plato states that Atlantis kings ruled over parts of the continent to the other side. Let&#8217;s see what parts of America could be Atlantean colonies?
