Atlantis And The Flood

I was listening to an exposition that theorized that the Atlantis (of
Plato) was positioned in the area of what is today the island of Thera
in the Aegean Sea.

The thing that really drew my attention was that when they showed the
site map, it appeared that most of the Mediterranean sea was a fertile
lowland plain before the cataclism that sunk the area.

Somehow I thought about Glenn and his local flood theory.

If the ancient world had most of the Mediterranean sea as dry ground,
how difficult/easy will be to flood it?

Other things spoken was the findings of obscure tablets in the Canary
islands with scriptions that to this day aren't understood just like
ones found in the underground city being unearthed in Thera today. One
theory being that the people who populated these islands before the
spaniards arrived in the XVI century were the direct descendants of
Atlantis.

Moreover, there are caves that contains bones of animals such as
miniature elephants (just like the ones painted in the murals of the
burried city) and other species that are extinct today.

Anyway something to think about.

One last question: Does a species stops evolving or even through
thousands of years one still finds the children besides the parents
although they don't look alike?
