Atlantis: How Plato's Story Corresponds to Real History - GreekReporter.comgreekreporter.com/2024/11/11/atlantis-plato-history-real/

Has the Atlantis mystery finally been solved? After years of extensive research, in conjunction with new archeological evidence, and with the aid of satellite technology, Christos A. Djonis credibly reveals that Plato based his story of Atlantis on a real prehistoric setting, now beneath 400 feet of water.
Although most people around the world agree that the original Santorini hypothesis so far made the most compelling case where Plato’s Atlantis once was, unfortunately, there are two critical flaws with that theory, which have allowed critics over the years to maintain the story was just a myth.

DNA studies though (and as similarly published by Greek Reporter on 9/18/21) point out that the extreme similarities between the Minoans and the Mycenaeans in art, in architecture, in their customs & traditions were most likely heritable connections and not influences as previously historians thought).
Finally, more recent DNA studies also pointed out that the mysterious Sea People (the boogeyman of the Bronze Age), who appeared in the Mediterranean sometime after the Santorini volcanic eruption of 1,646 BC, were actually of Minoan ancestry. Ironically enough though, after these people began settling in Cyprus and ultimately along the shores of modern-day Palestine, historians renamed them Philistines (a culture they thought originated in Cyprus).
Even with all of this, who can say where Atlantis was. There is a spot in Western Africa with a circular city that fits the description, too. Until they find the final answer, everything else is speculation.
