Lake Baikal, in the Russian Federation, reared its metaphorical head in the summer of 2009^(a) as a possible location for Atlantis. The lake, held sacred by the local Buryat people, is the deepest lake in the world and was recently discovered to be dramatically younger than the generally ascribed 25 million years and led to its candidacy as a potential Atlantis site. Plans are now being made to use mini-subs in 2011 to search for supporting evidence.  This report comes from the  Russian Information Agency, Novosti.
