Researcher Says He's Found Atlantis Off Cyprus

LIMASSOL, Cyprus (Nov. 14) - A U.S. researcher on Sunday claimed he had found the lost civilization of Atlantis in the watery deep off Cyprus -- adding his theory to a mystery which has baffled explorers for centuries.

Robert Sarmast says a Mediterranean basin was flooded in a deluge around 9,000 BC which submerged a rectangular land mass he believes was Atlantis, lying beneath sea level between Cyprus and Syria.

"We have definitely found it," said Sarmast, who led a team of explorers 50 miles or 80 kilometers off the south-east coast of Cyprus earlier this month.

I don't know why, but I've always been intrigued by Atlantis. I think it's probably because I've watched the movie over and over again.

I hope he's found it. It'd be nice to finally figure out what happened to the civilization...if it ever existed.
