In this episode, we discuss the existence of the most famous lost civilisation, the sunken city-state of Atlantis. First introduced by the great Greek philosopher Plato in his dialogues, Atlantis has continued to captivate the minds of historians, archeologists and story writers for over two thousand years.
But, did it ever exist or was it a literary construct designed to engage the reader in contemplating different political paradigms and ways of living?
Join Spiro, Doug and Ondrej as they debate and explore the history and potential real-world locations of this mythical culture.
