No – Atlantis Has Not Been Discovered in North Africa

Steven Novella, 2018. NeuroLogica Blog.

A sceptic's point-by-point reply to the Bright Insight video: the rings are a natural eroded dome and not complete, NASA gives 45 km rather than 23, the Younger Dryas lasted about 1,200 years and mostly affected high northern latitudes, there is no evidence the Atlantic flooded the Sahara 12,000 years ago, and no city, artefacts or canal have been found.
