Atlantis - The Lost City Found | Michael Donnellan and Nick Spratt. Atlantica
Description
Michael and Nick join us to chat about Atlantis, Atlantica – Michael’s docuseries and the Azores as another location.
Michael talks about the 8 years of work, working at Giza, scanning techniques, shipwrecks, visual effects and this growing community. Then we get into what they have found of the coast of Spain. Plato, underwater currents, old explorers, ancient mining, Templars are also all discussed.
Since 2015, Michael has spearheaded multidisciplinary underwater and satellite expeditions along southern Spain’s Atlantic coast with Merlin Burrows. Their explorations have uncovered concentric ruins off Cádiz that mirror Plato’s description of Atlantis—circular city walls, a central temple, harbor structures—using sonar, LiDAR, dives, and lab-validated ancient concrete samples
His efforts are captured in the three-part docuseries Atlantica: The Discovery of Atlantis, premiered at the South International Series Festival in Cádiz with a 10-minute standing ovation. The series assembles archaeological, geological, and historical evidence suggesting Atlantis may lie buried off the Andalusian coast
