From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.
Ogygia was believed to have been an island in the Mediterranean that sank following a huge and powerful earthquake, which shaked the area before the bronze age.
Also, according to Homer's Odyssey, Ogygia was the home of the nymph Calypso, where she entertained Odysseus for seven years.
It was also believed that Ogygia was a part of sunken Atlantis.
Others say that the island of Ogygia still exists and that the island is now known as the island of Gozo, the second largest island in the Maltese archipelago. These people claim that this confirms the existence of Atlantis and that the Maltese archipelago, together with some other islands, is the residue of Atlantis.
