Awakened Epochs argues that Plato’s island empire was a real Atlantic power whose remains sit on the Azores Plateau. The dialogues place it past Gibraltar, larger than Libya and Asia together, on a route toward the Americas. Egyptian priests, the narrator says, dated the fall nine millennia before Solon’s day, and the video sets that moment at the end of the Younger Dryas. A warm spike, collapsing ice, and drowned coasts are the disaster, in the same age as the pillars at Gobekli Tepe. The plateau is a vast triangle, nearly twice Britain, its peaks the modern islands, over a mantle plume that made thick crust and barely moved. As ice melted, land rose and seafloors dropped, and a fading plume may have folded the crust downward. Faint circles near the center, measured with Plato’s stadion, are said to match an outer ring, with smaller rings on depth scans and a deeper hollow offered as an inland sea. Mud explains the faint plan. The close calls this a memory under the Atlantic, not proof.
Key points
- The destruction is dated to about 11,600 years ago and lined up with the close of the Younger Dryas.
- Gobekli Tepe is brought in as a sign that skilled builders were already at work in that same age.
- The Azores Plateau is described as a nearly fixed patch of thick crust sitting over a mantle plume.
- Rebound of the land, sinking seafloors, and a weakening plume are the mechanisms offered for a collapse.
- Ring sizes near five kilometers are presented as a close fit to Plato’s outer circle, with mud explaining the blur.
