The location of Atlantis Island in relation with one of the palaeogeographicimage of Pannonian Basin rely on important previous studies:
1. Studies of mythical palaeogeography published in 1991, in Br atislava (The
XII th International Congress of the Prehistoric and Protohistoric Sciences)
2. Studies of palaeogeography on the Panoniann Basin (2006 ± The XVIII th
Congress of the Carpathian ± Balkans Geological Association - Belgr ade)
3. Studies of paleoclimat (Oslo, 2008 ± The 33rd International Geological Congress ± General contributions to climate change)
4. Bilateral Romanian - Hungarian cooperation (Geological Survey of Romania ±Bucharest and MAFI-Budapest ) ± correlations of the Quaternary
deposits from the East edge of the Pannonian Basin

ABSTRACT of the paper ³ Late Quaternary Paleogeography of the Pannonian Basin, the Key to Locate the Atlantis in the Middle DanubeDepression´ by Mircea icleanu, Paul Constantin, Radu Nicolescu
presented at November 10, 2008 (Session 3) of The 2nd International Conference ³ Atlantis Hypothesis: Searching for a Lost Land ́ Athens,Greece 2008
The attempts to identify the area that might correspond, undoubtfully, to the
mythic land Atlantis, hadn¶t succeeded so far, as they weren¶t relied on the
paleogeographic reality, very important for The Old World far history. These were
connected to the long maintenance in the present Depression of Middle Danube, thus
within the Pannonian Basin, of an endoreic region in which a huge lacustrian area
survived: The Pannonian Lake. This was definitely isolated from the neighbored basins of the Central Paratethys about 7 m.y. ago and it maintained until prehistoric
time, as an inner sea characterized mainly by the presence of an archipelagos in its
Western part. Only after The Iron Gates Gorge shaping, probably during some
cataclysms which affected the whole Earth, the old lake picture radically changed. In
the South-Eastern part of the Pannonian Basin, a lake maintained for a long time. It
was supplied mostly by the 4 main rivers of the Middle Danube Depression.
The last huge catastrophe that struck this edenic humanity realm, about 11.600
years ago, was due to a meteorites rain that affected Terra, a well described rain from
the biblical text (Apocalypse of John). It was concentrated upon the Western area of
the Atlantic Ocean where a huge vapors mass appeared which turned towards East,
and triggered The Great Flood (or Biblical Deluge) that could be better understoodonly in connection with the Pannonian area paleogeography. The same catastrophe
led to the last paleogeographic picture of the Pannonian Basin, meaning a relict lake
whose shore maintained for a long time at about +100 m height, and existed during
the Early Holocene [icleanu et al., 2006 - The XVIIIth Congress of the Carpathian-
Balkans Geological Association, Belgrade].
Picturing a Pannonian Atlantis might easily solve some location problems,
difficult to be solved so far, and could very well answer the numerous criteria
proposed for a realistic search of this fascinating mythic land. Thus, the West
Pannonian archipelago allowed the finding of an island to which the Atlants capital
could be linked. The Pannonian Lake corresponded to the Atlantes navigable sea,
placed ³beyond´ the ³Pillars of Herakles´, that could be found only within the area of
the Iron Gates gorge, as a few antic authors (i. e. Pindar) or actual ones (i. e.
Densusianu), and as a lot of myths and toponyms connected to the mythic hero
Hercule did. The sudden disappearance of the Pannonian Lake might explain the
appearance of some fine, unconsolided sediments (mud) that isolated for a while the
off-islands of the Pannonian Lake. The moment of the Atlantis ³sunken´ can be
established together with the meteorites rain from about 9.541 B.C. (a much closer
data to the one mentioned by Plato). The Atlantes civilization (which beyond the
archipelago included as well areas from the Pannonian Lake shores, thus the total
area was closed to the one estimated by Plato) developed in a mild climate,
influenced by the Atlantis position in connection to a huge water mass and the
presence of some important hydrothermal resources, known even nowadays inside
the Pannonian Basin (nowadays there could be found the largest thermal lake in the
world ± the Héviz Lake, and about 1500 thermal springs as well).
This civilization was based on the presence of some important natural resources
(forests, salt, gold, silver, copper etc) known even in the present in the Carpathians,
which border the Pannonian Basin in the North, and in the East.
This view might effectively solve not only the Atlantis location problem, but the
connection to real geographic areas of some mythic paleogeographic data for which
no viable solution was found so far, among there could be mentioned Thot Lake and Ha Lake (Egyptian myths), Ginnunga Gap, Audhumbla, Yggdrasil and Asgard
(Scandinavian myths), Cronus Sea (that became ³The Dead Sea´) and Okeanos
(Greek myths), the Life Land and the Death Waters (Sumerian myths), Havila Lands,
Cus Lands, and Asiria (in the Bible), Alybe (= Alybas) Lands (Homer) and Siriat
(Egyptians). The mythic land Vanenheim (= the Land of Vans), whose name is kept
by the actual ³Panonia´ could be distinguished of all. Such point of view was
sustained by us even from 1991 [icleanu et al., XIIth International Congress of the
Prehistoric and Protohistoric Sciences, Bratislava].
The Pannonian Lake (³Atlantis Sea´) and the Atlantis Island disappearance
following some successive catastrophes: floods, earthquakes, tsunami could led to the
disappearance of the main material remains of Atlantis civilization described by Platoand considered by many Atlantologists as very important criteria in searching the
Atlantis.
The population saved after such events kept in memory both the Flood myths,
and the Atlantis disappearance as well. Afterwards, these myths were brought in by
the population spread in those areas. In addition, the old inhabitants of the
Pannnonian space ³exported´ own toponyms of this primordial area in numerous
regions where they settled on, after successive migrations. The relations between the
Atlantes and the old Greeks could be easily explained in connection to the Pannonian
area as well, by the present toponyms with Greek mythic resonance from the North-
West area of the Apuseni (Western) Mountains.
There had to be mentioned the ³trend´ to find a solution for the Atlantis problemaccording to the information, unjustified absoluted many times, offered by Plato in
his writings, in the terms in which extremely precious data were comprised in other
antic authors writings, among which Diodorus Siculus with his ³Biblioteca
Historica´, mainly from the traditions regarding the Amazons.
One should not neglect that from the near close of this area there were some
world priorities: ³The Mesolithic Paradise´ (Lepenski Vir ± 9.000 BP), the oldest
world known writing (Vinca, Tartaria ± about 7.500 BP), the oldest ceramic tubes
network for drinkable water (inside the area of the old Dacian capital from
Sarmizegetusa Regia, in the South Carpathians - about 7.000 BP). In addition there
had to be mentioned the Dacian sanctuary presence from Sarmizegetusa, a proof of a
very developed civilization, placed within the central area already known as ³The Old
Europe´
