Anyway, my greatest finds would go like this:

Other than finding conclusive proof of the remants of Atlantis itself, I think it would turn the archaeological world upside down to have further verification of it's existence.

The story was said to be told to Solon at the Temple of Neith, in Egypt, circa 570 bc, as well as written on two pillars. Solon is said to have written a much longer version of it than Critias, which has been lost, and even Plato's originals were said to be destroyed.

What I would like to find are:

the Pillars at Neith that originally held the Atlantis story as well as perhaps, it'slocation.

the Temple of Neith is in rubble now, but an odd thing I found out this week: villages surrounding the ruin still have some of it's artifacts.

Solon's original writings.

These may be found someplace on the island of Salamis, near Greece, where he is said to have been buried.

Plato's originals.

I don't know where these would come from unless the Vatican has a secret stash.  Finding them, in their original Greek, might clear up a lot of the misconceptions as to just what and where Atlantis was.

For you Chronos-
Neith is a goddess of presumed Lower-Egyptian origin, whose most important cult centre was located at Sais, in the Nile Delta. During the Greek-Roman period, she also had an important cult centre in the Upper-Egyptian city of Esna, between Thebes and Edfu.

She is often represented as a woman wearing the Red Crown of Lower Egypt, holding a bow and arrows in her hand. This qualifies her as a hunting and a war goddess. Her aggressive nature is used to repel evil in general and Egypt's foes in particular, which makes her a protectress as well as a war goddess. She is one of the 4 goddesses who protect the mummified organs of the deceased.

Another type of headgear she is often represented with is some sort of spindle, which is also used as the hieroglyph to represent her name.

The meaning of her name has been a point of discussion: it may mean "the one who belongs to the Red Crown", confirming the importance of Neith in Lower-Egypt, or "the one who belongs to the (primeval) floods", which would qualify her as an aquatic goddess. The latter interpretation could also explain Neith's motherhood of the crocodile god Sobek, as well as her rather unique creation myth, in which she is described as the personification of the primaeval waters out of which the entire creation was born. Her aquatic character may also be the reason why she shared the Esna-temple with Khnum, the god venerated on the island of Elephantine as the source of the Nile's inundation

Interesting story on this link about Atlantis as well:
http://www.sacred-texts.com/atl/ssm/ssm12.htm
Lower Egyptians taught at Sais the Osirian Religion and this was 14,000 B. C. There were no kings of Egypt for an immensely long period after Thoth's time. Egypt was a sub-colony of the Motherland under direct control of the colonial empire--Atlantis.

Now let us see who Osiris actually was and the time when he lived. In two Himalayan monasteries--one in India, the other in Tibet--there are two Naacal tablets belonging to the Sacred Inspired Writings of the Motherland: they are identically the same, word for word, were copied from the originals in the Motherland and brought to the continent of Asia by Naacal missionaries. They belong to the historical section of the Sacred Books. They relate:

"Osiris, when entering manhood, left the home of his birth, Atlantis, and came to the motherland where he entered one of the Naacal colleges. Here he studied the religion and Cosmic Sciences of the Motherland. When he passed his degree of Master and adept, he returned to his own country, Atlantis. There he devoted his life to the teachings of the people, the first religion of man, and to weeding out and eliminating extravagances, inventions and misconceptions that had crept into the religion of Atlantis under a rank priesthood."

Osiris became the Hieratic Head of Religion in Atlantis which office he held during a long life. The people loved and worshipped him for his gentleness, goodness and kindness. They wished to dethrone Ouranos the King and place Osiris on the throne. This [paragraph continues]


Osiris would not allow to be spoken of and so condemned the idea that it was abandoned.

He was murdered by a brother on account of jealousy--this was about 20,000 B. C. His name was so revered, and he so beloved, that at his death he was deified, and as a lasting monument to his name religion was called after him, viz., "The Osirian religion," just as today we have the Christian religion. I could not find the name of the brother who murdered him, so the probability is the Egyptians invented the name. Nor do I find anything about Isis and Nephthys, but it is mentioned that he had a son, who became the Hieratic Head of Atlantis at the death of his father. I do not, however, find his name.

Nice work getting all that together, ParaNormalIAM. It just occurred to me, reading the Osiris/Seth myth again just how much it resembles the Biblical story of Cain & Abel, sans Isis, of course.

I wonder if there is a connection.

Regarding Sais, well, there isn't really a lot more to say about it. The Atlantis story was said to have been carved on two pillars in hieroglyphics there. Pillars of this sort can still be seen at Luxor and some of the other temples so we know they existed, and a visit to Sais by the Roman historian Crantor confirmed their existence.

Saitic traditions are some of the oldest in Egypt and Sais dates back to 3100 bc., the very start of Egyptian civilization. I've always found it very suspicious that no one can pinpoint just exactly when and why the temple was destroyed, as well as other places like Plato's Academy and the Library of Alexandria. There seems to have been a very concerted effort to wipe out all the knowledge and beliefs of the ancient world around 300 to 400 bc. Part of me believes it's still taking place.

Think about it, sphinx's make riddles, so a sphinx was put there for a reason.  Whether there is a secret chamber or not there is a riddle to it.

You might be correct to think that it is. I kinda feel like something has been discovered about how all things involving pyramids are connected.

"The greatest find would have to be that of either sunken city in the Mid-Atlantic or an ancient civilization under the ice of Antartica (either Atlantis or Kadath)."

What the hell is Kadath?

Yet you are discussing the ancient civilization of Kadath, which was created by H.P. Lovecraft.
