Whatever caused the submergence of Atlantis, whether it was somewhere off the coasts of America, the mid-Atlantic or just before (Spartel or the like) the Pillars of Hercules; was definitely a major calamity. Such distruction could have caused the ocean in the vicinity of the Straits to swell with mud and be no longer safe for shipping for a period of time. The waters before the Pillars are, relatively speaking rather shallow. If the Greeks couldn't get through the Straits of Gibraltor they would naturally assume the ocean no longer navigable.

All that is possible. Reason why I have studied the climate of that time, product of defrostings of the ice sheets in the north in the Earth, that J. Imbrie and K imbrie call "climatic revolution" (Ice Ages; Solving the Mystery) was generated great catastrophes. I have collected many data of different places from the Earth. Nevertheless, in North America, the evidences of human presence are very few. Only it was a skeleton in La Brea (Los Angeles) and some evidence of stone devices in Alaska (Frank C. Hibben).

Nevertheless, there are no evidences or study indicates that what you indicate specifically has happened. Either there are evidences that there were important villages or towns, with million human beings. Either there are evidences of civilized centres. There is not evidence either how this event hypothetical could be known more than 10 thousand kilometres of distance, 11,500 years ago.

In order to discover the truth, we must work hypotheses that can be demonstrated with concrete data.
