Atlantis’ Legendary Metal, Orichalcum, Discovered in 2,600 Year-old Shipwreck
Mythical red alloy said to be from the lost island is discovered off coast of Sicily
Marine archaeologists found 39 ingots of ‘orichalcum’ off the town of Gela
They were discovered on the sandy sea floor in a wreck under 10ft of water
Experts say they are the mythical metal Plato claimed was from Atlantis
Analysis has shown they are an alloy of copper, zinc, lead, iron and nickel
Shipwreck is a 2,600 year old cargo vessel thought to be from Greece
Researchers believe it was sunk in a storm just 1,000 feet from shore.
Most of the legend of Atlantis comes from the work of the Greek philosopher Plato, who describes how the great nation was submerged beneath the Atlantic Ocean after falling out of favour with the Gods.
Plato mentions orichalcum in the Critias dialogue and describes Atlantis as flashing with the ‘red light’ of the metal.
He wrote that orichalcum was highly prized and second only in value to gold. It was mined in the mythical island and covered the surfaces of Poseidon’s temple.
