The "Atlantis" Impact?
A possible impact site off Puerto Rico that matches an impact site in North Carolina that is 'less than' 15000 years old. The broken up Shoemaker-Levy comet impact on Jupiter was pretty much in a straight line. Google Earth Link Below ... read more

University of Georgia researchers conclude: "Our interpretation of the geologic history of the Lake Waccamaw area, the sediment record, and the relevant data of others is that Lake Waccamaw is a relatively young lake, probably around 15,000 years old or less.
According to them, this was not a mere "single event" occurence. The initial impact was followed by environmental catastrophes (enormous fires, volcanic eruptions, massive weather changes) lasting for years, which may have been precipitated by the fragmentation of the main body. ("Mammoth Mystery" TV presentation on National Geographic Explorer, 10 October 2007.) Ice core samples taken by the Greenland Ice Sheet Project (GISP) indicate that a significant volcanic event also occurred about this same time.
According to this presentation, the Pleistocene animals and Clovis people all disappear from the earth in a "geological instant". The scientists admit that the dating of fossils entails some margin of error, so this event is chronologically compatible with the date given by Plato for the inundation of Atlantis and the end of Atlantean civilization.
Plato, in his Timaeus, mentions the mythic story of Phaethon, who drove the chariot of the Sun (Helios) too close to the earth, setting everything on fire, and who was in turn "destroyed by a thunderbolt."
