The lost civilisation of Atlantis
Manage episode 451945357 series 3611412
In the fifth episode of our series on history’s most well-known conspiracy theories, we investigate the idea that a highly advanced civilisation existed many thousands of years ago, before being wiped out by a calamitous event. Rob Attar speaks to archaeologist Flint Dibble about the ancient Greek origins of the Atlantis legend and how it has been reimagined in more recent times, including in the Netflix series ‘Ancient Apocalypse’.
History’s Greatest Conspiracy Theories is produced by the team behind BBC History Magazine.
