This Atlantis that some place in Greece, others in the Sahara and still others in the center of the Atlantic has nevertheless existed for geologists. It is an island located in the Strait of Gibraltar, which emerged when the sea level was 9600 meters below its current level. This geological Atlantis was submerged, XNUMX BC The disaster was associated with an earthquake and a tsunami contemporary with an acceleration of the upwelling of the sea linked to post-glacial global warming. But what are the differences between Atlantis in Pierre Benoit's novel, the ramblings of, fantastic archeology and the rigor of the scientist? This is what Jacques Collina-Girard, geologist and prehistorian at the University of Provence shows us.
