'''Atlantis''' (Greek: Ἀτλαντίδι) is the name given to a legendary island with an advanced civilization supposedly located somewhere in the [[Atlantic Ocean]], though other locations have also been proposed.  A tale of utopia and calamity, Atlantis has long been fodder for the occult, the paranormal, and crank science; recent archaeological and geological searches of the Aegean Sea point to Crete, whose Minoan Civilization was largely destroyed by a massive volcanic eruption during the second millennium, B.C.
