Lost City Of Atlantis Found?

Has Atlantis, wiped out by a tsunami millennia ago, been found? If you ask the U.S.-led team of researchers who've unearthed what they think are tell-tale clues in the marshlands of Spain, the answer is yes.

University of Hartford, Conn., professor Richard Freund has been at the head of an international research team who've recently found evidence of multiringed cities deep in the marshlands north of Cadiz, Spain—long-dead metropolises they're calling memorial cities.

The idea is, survivors of the cataclysmic event that submerged Atlantis—thought to be ancient tsunami waves—landed on the shores of Spain and then built cities that closely resembled the one they had just lost. According to Freund, who believes that this points to Atlantis having been located off Spain's southern coast:

"We found something that no one else has ever seen before, which gives it a layer of credibility, especially for archeology, that makes a lot more sense."

Experts plan further excavations are planned at the site where they believe Atlantis is located and at the mysterious "cities" in central Spain 150 miles away to more closely study geological formations and to date artifacts.
