Is it lost or what?

The city of Atlantis has been dated 9,000 years back before Plato era.  Plato wrote and told stories of a lost city named Atlantis.  According to Plato the stories of Atlantis came from Ancient Egyptian Priest.  There is much conflict with who tells the stories through dialogue they found from Plato’s past  There were two different people named Kritias, who talks in Plato’s  dialogue which make people wonder if they are the same person and it often confuses the reader on who is who in the dialogue.  People have also announced to the public that they found the lost city in various locations. Which than leaves the mystery is there really a lost land or people making it up.  When people sold pictures and displayed in the media the pictures were fuzzy and were not all from the same area.  This leads to more curiosity because most people would say all the pictures or artifacts should be in the same area but they are not.  Other than dialogue to prove people spoke of such a city there also some artifacts found to support the theory that there was a lost city.  Although there are artifacts found to support there is a lost city they have been reports from various locations making Atlantis a huge continent.   An endorsed exploration of Atlantis funded by Pepperdine University in Lost Angeles, California found dozens of artifacts that support the idea that there was a city.  As stated in the article Evidence for Existence of Atlantis, the exploration they found pyramids, roads, and statues holding mysterious crystals.  They also found other crystals that were suppose to pass energy through them.  Also the pyramids they found were lavish with six rooms in them fit for a king and jewels that were for the king as well.  With the roads they found they also had streets which represented that they used transportation.  All of these artifacts were found at various locations some were found at the bottom of the sea floor in the Bahamas and Cay Sol of the Bahamans.  Others were found off of Binini Island and off of Portugal and thousands of feet under the Mid-Atlantic.  As stated in Alan Alford article on Atlantis he says,"Even though all of these artifacts and facts were put out in the media not one was ever put or mentioned in a history book.  The reason why they were not mentioned is because historians could not explain the artifacts with their theories.  The result is a deadlock on how to decipher the story. Some argue that it is a myth, of uncertain meaning. Others argue that it is a moral and political fable. And others, still, continue to argue that it is pure history, and that Plato simply got his geographical facts wrong".
