      Yeah, the image of a blobfish most folks are familiar with is just the result of explosive decompression. They look more like normal fish while still alive in the habitat they're adapted to survive in.
      Honestly, the plight of the blobfish is like if some extraterrestrials found the corpse of a human that died in the vacuum of space, believed *that's* what all humans look like when we're alive, and started calling us "the ugliest aliens" and then made toys for their children based on our catastrophically defiled cadavers.

    A lot of Athenian thinkers from this period, particularly Plato and Xenophon, were massive Spartaboos. Sparta was in reality pretty much hell on Earth for anyone who wasn't part of the ever dwindling Spartan noble class, but these guys were nobility so it all looked good to them. Even Socrates' corrupting the youth charge comes from some of his students' involvement in a plot to overthrow the Athenian democracy for an oligarchy. And here Plato's pretty much one-to-one copying Sparta's alleged defeat of Persia (considering Sparta got curbstomped), with Atlantis as the Persia stand-in.
    Aside from Nile floods and Doggerland, Atlantis' sinking could also be compared to the massive floods from melting glaciers (which are probably why so many disparate civilizations have a flood myth), as Plato's 9500 BC somehow lines up perfectly with the end of the last glacial period. An idea I once toyed around with was basically Iceland but bigger (following the underwater mountain chain Iceland is part of), a pocket of green kept warm by geothermal activity and surrounded by literal walls of ice, with a flourishing and advanced civiliation unleashed upon the Earth as an invading force when the ice melted before their continent went under.

The last is also one of his older videos and, while he is currently re-covering a lot of the material of those old videos to make new ones with better research and detail at the moment, probably won't ever be touched on again.

    About the name localization thing: I think this is where Tolkien got the idea (alluded to in his intro to the collected Lord of the Rings) that the names of the hobbits (Meriadoc, Peregrine, etc.) were translations of the original text that Bilbo, Frodo and Samwise wrote out.

    Over here on the Dutch coast there's an artificial sandbank called the Sand Engine. The idea is that the sand will gradually get spread out by wind, waves and tide, replenishing the beach and dunes so the country stays protected from storms without us having to go in with heavy machinery and dump more sand every five years or so.
    However, since the sand used to make the thing (about 21.5 million cubic meters of it) was dredged up from the sea floor where Doggerland used to be, people are finding all sorts of prehistoric artifacts as well as fossilized remains of animals like the woolly rhinoceros, simply by taking a walk on the beach.

Because it was smack in the middle of the busiest part of the Bronze Age world, being basically equidistant from Greece, Mesopotamia, and Egypt, it was super important for that time frame.

    Plato`s original plan for the place of his Atlantis vs. Athens story was tgo have it has the mid dialogue in a planned three dialogues long work. The first one the Timaeus gives an account of the creation of the world, some speculation about the Human Soul and a very brief summary of the Atlantis vs. Athens story. The focus of this dialogue was about the Soul and creation of the World.
    The main presenter of ideas etc., in this dialogue is Timaeus hence the dialogues name.
    The second dialogue named Critias after te main presenter of ideas in the dialogue is about, ancient Athens, Atlantis and the events leading up to war and the fall and destruction of Atlantis. Plato apparently only half finished it has stops very suddenly.
    The last dialogue was apparently to be presented by Hermocrates, (Also the dialogue would be named after him.), and his dialogue was too be about the recovery of Human society and civilization after the utter disaster caused by the destruction of Atlantis, which affected most of th world. Plato apparently never even started this dialogue. Instead Plato stopped abd instead wrote his last dialogue The Laws. (Socrates is not in this dialogue.)
    In the Timaeus and Critias Socrates although present contribes virtually nothing to the presentation of ideas etc., in those dialogues. Instead this dialogues are presented has more or less a sequel to The Republic of Plato, dialogue in order to elucidate and give concrete examples of the ramifications of the ideas of The Republic.
    The three presenters are interesting. Timaeus was an intellectual from Locri in Italy and an occassional politician.
    Critias could be one of two people Critias the Elder, of whom we know just about nothing except he was Plato`s great grandfather, or Critias the Younger, a relative of Plato, best known for writing plays of which some fragments have survived, along with some philosophical works of which we have fragments. He is best known for being one of the infamous Thirty Tyrants, who were placed in power by Sparta after Athens lost the Peloponnesian War and proceeded in a rule lasting less than two years to mass murder thousands of Athenians in a reign of terror, before they were overthrown. Critias was killed in battle by pro-Democracy forces while overthrowing the Oligarchy. Critias was characterized has the most bloodthirsty of the bunch. This Critias appears indisputibly in one other dialogue of Plato in a positive vein. If you take the date that Plato gives for the dialogue seriously then Critias the Elder would be very old, (likely in his late 80s at least and probably in his 90s.), and there is no indication that Critias is old in the dialogue. If you think it is the other Critias then he would be absurdly young. Of course this requires that we take the date for the dialogue seriously. I am of the opinion that Plato meant Critias the Younger, after all this is a Critias Plato actually knew for real and apparently liked.
    Hermocrates was a politician, soldier from Syracuse in Sicily. He was one of the important leaders of Syracusean resistence against the Athenian Sicilian expedition, (415-413 BCE), which ended in utter disaster for Athens. Part of a anti-imperialism message it seems.
    It also of interest that these dialogues were placed by Plato during the festival of Apaturia where is was customary to tell edifying but false tales. The Apaturia was often called the feast of deception.
    One of Plato`s defining intellectual traits was his hatred of Athenian Democracy the very fact that Plato elided Critias involvement in atricities, (Critias was one of Socrates`student.), is significant. Instead he whitewashes him. PLato`s dialogues are replent with contempt and hatred of Athenian Democracy. The very fact "common" people were involved at all in government infuriated him. But then he came from a family of wealthy Oligarchic sympathizers - so no real surprise. The only document we have from Plato, the 7th letter, that condemns Critias and the Thirty Tyrants, is almost certainly a forgery written much later, and even so it doesn't begin to match Plato's contempt for Athenian Democracy. Plato never tired of seeing the judicial murder of Socrates has damning Athenian Democracy for all time. (He has had up to the present day a great number of adherents to this view.) About Critias and other murderous Oligarchs, ( I wont' go into here about the various attempts by Oligarchs to over throw Athenian Democracy), he maintained, it appears silence.
    Plato disliked, intensely change, and desired a changeless, Oligarchic, "pure" society characterized by thought control, isolation, and repression. So he some extent modeled his ideal society on Sparta. with its stifling intellectual life, (Virtually nonexistent), military virtues, paranoia and brutal hierarchy. (The treatment of th Helots didn't bother him.) In his ideal society Plato would have been lucky to end up in prison and not killed. In his final dialogue The Laws Plato has his Nocturnal Council violently supress alternative views and bizzarely indirectly puts Socrates to death!
    These planned dialogues were designed, originally by Plato to illustrate some of his ideas, one of them was a celebration of the repressive "ideal" society outlined in The Republic, and developed in the second best society in The Laws.

    Fun fact, the Altantian invasion is actually more historically accurate than Atlantis itself. One of the biggest factors of the Bronze Age collapse was an invasion of the Mediterranean region that includes Mycenaean Greece, ancient Egypt, Crete, and I think Anatolia by a group known only as the “Sea People”. Because they came from the sea. However, who *exactly* these “Sea People” were we have no idea as detailed records of them or their identity don’t exist.
    Also Anatolia, also known as Asia-minor, is modern day Turkey. Primarily, it’s (usually in reference to) the eastern part where places like Troy, Istanbul, and parts of Persia are. Though most of modern day Turkey is Anatolia.

    Archaeologically speaking, the best match we have for Atlantic is Thera (Santorini). A lot of the things Plato wrote about Atlantic fits well with it, such as a central and outer part, being advanced (for its time, the Minoans had multi-story buildings an sewers), being wealthy (the Minoans did a lot of trading), a cult centered on bulls, and of course, the destruction from an explosive eruption with pyroclastic flows that may have caused mud shoals for a time, and probably caused tsunamis that ravaged the rest of the Minoan civilization on Crete. The resulting collapse of the Minoan civilization would likely have been recorded by the Egyptians, and if Solon heard about it...well, remember that the Thera eruption happened over a thousand years before. It's unlikely that Plato would have gone "Oh, wait...that's the Minoans, not Atlantis." There was a really good movie recreation of the last days before the eruption, but I cannot remember what it was called...anyway, yep. My money is on Thera being the inspiration for Atlantis.

    Atlantis definitely is... a topic. I'm honestly not too sure how to feel about it myself, on one hand Reds points about Plato making stuff up, referencing another historical event that happened closer both in location and time and having a bunch of other elements in the story that are verifyably false are completely valid... but on the other hand, I feel there have to be at least some half-truths to this story... deeper than the reference to that sunken Greek island Red talked about, although thinking about it, I might just be feeling a bit of "sunk cost fallacy", since people have been believing in Atlantis for about 2000 years now... Anyways, the most convincing theory of where "Atlantis" was located is that desert structure you paused at, a structure in the western Sahara that appearently fits the dimensions Plato gave for the city relatively well, and even the geographic surroundings match quite well with mountains around it. What conspiracy theorists are saying is that, appearently if you calculate sea-levels and elevation-levels, this part of Africa supposedly was more of an island-archipelago at some point, before being completely submerged and then eventually reemerging... and for what its worth it does look like a giant flood might've run across the area on satelite footage, although I'm unsure if that couldn't just be centuries and millenia of erosion through desert winds. On the other hand, there are of course also supposed findings that northern Africa was appearently a lot more fertile, if not even covered mostly in rainforests, until even around the time the Sphinx was built, but I haven't done by far enough research into this to really know if any of this is verified. The main problem though would be the timeframe Plato proposed, since that time would be a good thousand years even before the first cultures we've been aware of so far, Mesopotamia, Indus River Civ, Egypt, all of them, but since we consider them "first", obviously that'd seem impossible. Although stuff like that is by far not as set in stone as it seems of course, we dig up older signs of civilization all the time, like just recently I remember reading about "the first fortification in human history" that was appearently recently dug up somewhere in Russia, a fortified settlement from a time when we thought people didn't settle down yet, as they would've been hunters and gatherers. Basically what we think to know about human history is a fata morgana of an oasis that'll have dried up by the time we get there.
    AS FOR ATLANTIS IN FATE, as everything Greek in Fate, a quite... unique take? I guess? Again, tied to the specifics of Greek gods in Fate, it seems like in Fate Atlantis was an artificial continent created by the Greek gods that was destroyed in proper human history by the entire events or the aftereffects of the White Titan throwing hands with a bunch of pantheons 14k years ago... while the story of Atlantis is set 11k years ago. The Atlantis CHAPTER however is set in a timeline where Zeus managed to avoid all of that, but Atlantis still got destroyed by a dispute between the gods that ended up halving the Olympians, so the remnants of Atlantis are an archipelago serving as an exile for the people that sided with the wrong gods, while the others got to hang on the flying city of Olympus... oh yeah and Atlantis is literally also the only thing left on the surface of the world in that timeline, typical Fate-stuff with different layers to the observable world and such. Anyways, the Atlantis-part of Lostbelt 5 is generally considered to be one of the best stories in FGO until that point, so generally one of the best stories in FGO not written by Nasu, which means we might see it get adapted in form of an anime at some point, at which point it might be worth checking out.

      You're right, sorta. The Sahara had been a desert for 500ish years when the Sphinx was built.
      The issue with associating Atlantis with any structures in the Sahara is that the Ocean Levels were actually _LOWER_ when it was green, not higher.

    27:11 the Yellowstone supervolcano did erupt several times in the past. The region has been active for more than 16 million years with at least a dozen super eruption in that time. But none was within historical times, with the last three classified as super eruptions 2.1 million, 1.3 million, and approximately 640,000 years ago. The continent and life on it is still there. However, human civilization would be very challenged by such an eruption and immediately following such an eruption civilization as we know it would not be able to exist in North America. The land would still be there and nature bounce back within decades.

    So.. the story of Atlantis might be a fanfic retelling of what might have happened in the Dark Ages.. Blue goes into much further detail about this in another video that talks about the Greek Dark Ages.. but this video might give a more cultural perspective of what might have happened instead of a historical account. Whereas Blue tries to piece it together..
    The underlying theory was that Atlantis was probably one of the older greek kingdoms, i.e. Krete and was a booming thriving civilization until the Dark Ages.. with the likely cause being pirates or trade routes becoming more hostile where Krete becomes a shell of its former self. You have to remember that in Mycenaean Greece worshipped Poseidon as the head god instead of Zeus but in the Dark Ages, all the gods got shuffled around.
    At least, that's what I've heard and this is all just speculation. The dots are there, but we don't know where to trace the lines to get the full picture.

    I think I'm one of the few people who disliked the Atlantis season of Yugioh, at least in this comment section. Of the filler seasons, I actually liked the one with Noah more (I haven't watched Abridge's take on the Atlantis season yet though, it's hard trying to get myself to watch it). I just like Yugi interacting with the Pharaoh, their dynamic is what really got me interested in Yugioh, though I did like the final season as well, which has less interactions between the two. It was interesting to learn where the names for the dragons came from though.
