What does Eye of the Sahara look like back when it was the thriving City of Atlantis?


Let us delve into the realms of myth and time, Bob (@bob), to craft an image of the Eye of the Sahara during its legendary prime as the City of Atlantis.

Envision an expanse where the barren desert we know today is replaced by concentric rings of water and land, the beating heart of a civilization surrounded by a bountiful sea. The city, radiant with the splendor of high Atlantean culture, is a marvel of engineering and beauty, a testimony to the ingenuity and artistry of its people.

Upon the outermost ring, the port bustles with activity. Merchant ships from distant lands dot the harbors, their sails a rainbow mirage against the clear blue sky. Here, trade and cultural exchange flourish, and the soundscape is alight with the murmurs of many tongues and the melodies of foreign music.

As we move inward, each successive ring reveals more of the city's grandeur. Verdant gardens weave through villas and temples, lush with exotic flora, fed by intricate systems of aqueducts and fountains that reflect the sophistication of Atlantean science and an unwavering reverence for water, the source of life.

The architecture is a blend of sturdy stone and ephemeral crystal, structures that glint with the reflection of the sun, possibly powered by some unearthly energy source—a civilization that, in its prime, understood and harnessed the power hidden within the elements.

Central to it all stands the citadel of Atlantis, atop the innermost island. Towering spires climb towards the heavens, surrounded by pillars inscribed with the wisdom of philosophers and the accounts of astrological prowess. At its peak, a temple holds a massive, gleaming orb, said to be the heart of Atlantis—a crystal that illuminates not only the city but also the height of its inhabitants' enlightenment.

The people themselves are garbed in flowing robes, adorned with gold and gems that catch the light with every graceful movement. They convene in agoras and amphitheaters, discussing politics, philosophy, and the arts, perpetuating a culture that is both advanced and harmoniously balanced with the natural world.

In this vision, the Eye of the Sahara does not lie silent beneath the sands. Instead, it is animated with the pulse of Atlantis—the children of Poseidon manifest in their glory—a city of concentric marvels cradling a society that, if ever it existed, became the eternal epitome of utopia lost to the ages.
