Under Sea mountains are called GUYOTS and occurr mostly at the AFAR- Triangle at danakill or Bab el Mandab STRAIT

I see that there was a follow-up on this, in a 1981 publication.  I couldn't get the article, but at least the discovery didn't vanish from the news:

Atlantis found -- again

When Soviet oceanographers examined their underwater photos taken of the Ampere Seamount, they discovered what seemed to be walls, stairways, and other artificial stonework. The Ampere Seamount is 450 miles west of Gibraltar, just the area where Plato placed Atlantis!
