ATLANTIS IN ANTARCTICA A theory of F.Barbiero

• BACKGROUND
• Atlantis is Antarctica according to the italian
  engineer Flavio Barbiero.
• In fact Antarctica is a continental island beyond
  the Pillars of Heracles
• The climatic conditions, before the end of the
  last ice age, could allow man to live in
  temperate zones, the northern coast of
  Antarctica.
• Survivors told the island was flooded and
  submerged owing to the shifting of the poles
  after the catastrophe. In fact the constellation
  map, which they used to find the way when
  travelling by ship, was translated so that the
  coordinates given by it werent the same as
  before. So they werent able to find Atlantis
  (Antarctica) again.
• Next to the sea, in the northern coast, a flat
  plain lies beneath ice. Its supposed to be
  Platos plateau.

RESEARCH Actually Antarctica belongs to several
nations and its divided into different
political areas. Some nations made expeditions
in order to study the climatic conditions of the
island through years. The result was that
Antarctica wasnt widely free from ice before
millions of years ago. 12,000 years ago just the
narrow northern coast had a hailing weather.
Almost the entire island was covered by ice.
Flavio Barbiero had the chance to try two
expeditions even if they were not so lucky under
the profile of organization. He had the
opportunity to find some fossilized trunks that
could be dated back to 12,000 years ago.

MEDIA INTEREST This theory had a large success
during last 6 years thanks to the book When the
sky fell, written by two canadians, Rand and
Rose Flem Ath. Since they published their work
the theory was hailed as a new fantastic
discovery and gained lot of points, going to
compete with the Mid-Atlantic one. Flem Ath
work, which clearly sums up Barbieros one and
Hapgoods discoveries, met the favours of writers
like Graham Hancock, Bauval or John Anthony West,
who are among the best sellers of the last years
for books regarding the archaeological
mysteries. Anyway few people speak about
Barbiero, who is the real father of the theory.
Not only he shows even a more detailed and
concrete picture of the problem of Atlantis,
while Flem Ath work is still full of
misinterpretations.

GEOGRAPHICAL REFERENCE. The capital city,
according to Barbiero, lies in the coast next to
Weddel Sea

NOTES Though this is the theory which actually
common people consider the most reliable it has a
fatal weak point. Plato, in fact, told the entire
island of Atlantis was inhabited and divided in
to 10 regions. Only a small part, science shows
that, was free from ice 12,000 years ago. Plato
clearly told the whole island had comfortable
climatic conditions and never spoke about ice.
Then Antarctica isnt in front of the Pillars of
Heracles, but far away.
