THERE could be a hidden city frozen underneath Antarctica, according to shock claims.

The huge continent is an icy mass, and is currently only inhabited by scientific researchers and penguins thanks to its freezing temperatures.

Rumours of a hidden city have been floating about for years, as conspiracy theorists and even some scientists claim the freezing continent is actually the home of the legendary Lost City of Atlantis.

One scientific theory claims that once upon a time Antarctica was ice-free and home to an ancient civilisation.

Lovecraft’s ‘At the Mountains of Madness’ was a great treatment of this, way back when..

I dismiss the ancient civilization theory, but I accept the Nazi/alien theory.

I don’t think the Piri Ries map is a fake. I just think he ran out of room to draw the rest of the South America coast, so he flipped it and started drawing it along the bottom of the page.

One reason why it could be true that a city exists under the ice, if you’re into Sci-Fi reading:

If it were there, it would be ground to a pulp and spread over 100s of miles.

Think of the squadron of P38s and B17 on Greenland. After just 50 years, they were so crushed and smeared that there were hardly any usable parts.

The shifting, crushing ice over the centuries would destroy any structures and grind personal possessions into powder.

The only thing interesting would be the fact that there was proof. Relics will be nonexistent.

It’s not NOT “Global Warming” any longer it’s “Climate Change.”

“Intelligent? Yes, Intelligent enough to get out before it froze over.”

And those that stayed behind were probably preaching global warming.

When the Atlantians built the reverse internal combustion engine, which by the way caused global cooling, the Pole People got froze out.

Its true that Antarctica used to be ice-free.

It’s only since Antarctica moved to the pole that we’re even in an Ice Age.
