In the fifth episode of our series on history’s most well-known
conspiracy theories, we investigate the idea that a highly advanced
civilisation existed many thousands of years ago, before being
wiped out by a calamitous event. Rob Attar speaks to archaeologist
Flint Dibble about the ancient Greek origins of the Atlantis legend
and how it has been reimagined in more recent times, including in
the Netflix series ‘Ancient Apocalypse’. History’s Greatest
Conspiracy Theories is produced by the team behind BBC History
Magazine. For more fascinating stories from the past, head to
