Synopsis

This evening you will hear about the myth of Atlantis as it was recorded by a famous Greek Philosopher. The sinking of a sophisticated civilisation sparked the imagination of people in the past and continues to do so even now. Some of the threads of this story will be unravelled in light of the archaeological remains found at the Bronze Age site of Akrotiri on Santorini (Thera).
