Atlantis (fictional locations)

Atlantis is a legendary island first mentioned by the ancient Greek philosopher Plato around 360 B.C.

Over the centuries, Atlantis has captured the imagination of many, inspiring countless myths, novels, and theories about lost civilizations. While some believe it to be a real place, most scholars consider it a fictional allegory about hubris and moral decline. Atlantis symbolizes humanity's eternal fascination with mystery, exploration, and the consequences of ambition.
