Do you believe in the Lost City of Atlantis?

Underwater ruins at ATAMI‘Submerged City’ Found off Japanese Coast
ATAMI, Shizuoka Prefecture-Archaeologists say they may have found ruins of a submerged city from the Kamakura Period (1192-1333) off the coast of Shizuoka Prefecture.

While no one is certain, historical evidence points to an ancient city having existed in this part of Sagami Bay. Hyakurensho, a record of the Kamakura Period, describes land sinking in 1247 in what is now the southeastern part of Shizuoka Prefecture and the Izu islands.

New Underwater Ruins Found In Japan Similar to Andros Formations Found in 2003
“Interestingly, some of the photos of the underwater ruins at Atami are strikingly similar to those we found at Andros (Bahamas) after discovering a massive underwater platform in 2003. The paving stones at Andros appear nearly identical to those at Atami and portions of the foundations at Atami look like the Andros Platform.”
