I think it is more of an interest in history, find places that are hidden for centuries. You can find them, those were the thoughts that have stories. We are naturally curious about exploring, people and ask. Why do people want to find Bigfoot? Why do people want to find new species of animals.
I think it's interesting for us people who see advanced in the past, because we can then consider what might have been? Ideas or opinions or even to information that has lost us.
People do not visit to Dubai, because people feel like it. It is no secret, except for the general public, and that is what we have the History Channel: P

WH Auden wrote a poem about the search for Atlantis, in fact, I believe that very well described, especially because he described the research as an act of faith:
In the case of thunderstorms and can occur
Take the anchoring of the Week
In some ancient port city
Ionia talk, then
For the people of his genius Sholars
Have shown that it may
A place like Atlantis:
Learn their logic, but it should be noted
This shows the subtlety of his
Their enormous simple grief;
Then I will teach you how
Doubt whether you can believe.
Consider the last line. Christians, you know the line: "Lord, I believe, help us, my unbelief" (I do not remember the source). This poem is really quite openly on the basis of Cavafy, Ithaca, describes a journey home of Odysseus as a continuous journey. Auden poems Party popular with boys and prostitutes, but he ends with:
Adieu, my dear, farewell: May
HermesOwn the roads,
And the four dwarf Kabiri,
Always protect and serve;
And the old days
Providing everything you need to do
Your invisible guide
Lifting, my dear fellow, you
The light of her face.
In these "rational" Sometimes people are always on the lookout for Hello, and many serious hunters Atlantis argue that if we consider the "truth" that we are to achieve more opportunities for our salvation. There are looking for a specific religious impulse - the testimony of the function is used. I'm not saying that people are good or bad for him to be or is there or not, but a religious impulse, and not wrong to appreciate this fact is.
When the original Atlantis story is true, then Atlantis was defeated by the Bronze Age, the Athenian army. So obviously they were not very advanced.
Here are some details:
Plato wrote about an ancient lost island called Atlantis.
Confirms that the Egyptian has been translated by Solon. It also shows that) the original close relationship Critias (dialogue translation of Solon had in his possession. If the original manuscript really existed, Plato may have access.
Plato's Atlantis Ocean is something) outside the Pillars of Hercules, now "(the Strait of Gibraltar.
He said it was a central level, with mountains in the west, north and east. The central plain of Atlantis is described in 2000, the size of 3000 x Greek stadium of approximately 79.212 square miles (about the size of South Dakota).
Nowhere is seen as a continent.
He says that sank in one day and night.
What he says is that in a single day and night, the Greek army swapproved by the earth. Then he said that "the same way that" Atlantis was "swallowed by the sea." But nowhere mentioned the two events simultaneously.
Any theory that I've seen on Atlantis is based on Plato or trust him, at least some support. This makes the writing of Plato, the only clear thing in common between all stakeholders in discussions about Atlantis. Plato is the foundation on which most theories is based, of Atlantis.
Interestingly, however, many people who support on Atlantis (both skeptics and believers), which has never read the original law, which really quite short.
The account is in Plato's Timaeus and Critias dialogues. Atlante actual sections of a book with Timaeus and Critias are relatively short. For example, in traditional publishing, Penguin and comprehensive dialogue Timaeus is about 100 pages, but the part of Atlantis is only 8 pages. Critias is only 17 pages.
Linguistically, the writings of Plato, Atlantis reasonably ago. In almost all cases, the meaning of the original Greek is clear enough.
In my case, people should be free to choose to accept what Plato wrote, or may reject it. However, I have a problem with it when the people what Plato said, and rotate it as "right understanding" is in an effort to adapt Plato in support of his theory of Atlantis. They are often only can say: "Plato supports my theory."
