Ewing, William Maurice
Dr. William Maurice Ewing (1906-1974) was one of the leading 
oceanographers of the 20th century. His work on behalf of the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institute in the late 1940’s and early 1950’s exploring the North Atlantic inadvertently gave an impetus to the theory of Atlantis being located in the Atlantic. His discovery of sandy ‘beaches’ at a depth of two miles and rocks normally associated with the continental crust, sial, led to speculation that this was evidence of a large sunken landmass(b). Ewing was not known as a believer in Atlantis and never entered the debate and in the April 1949 issue of Science Digest he commented that “he found no evidence of buried cities.” Coincidentally, the Woods Hole research vessel was named Atlantis.
>A biography of Ewing’s life is available online(a), that concluded that “Ewing and his group discovered more new things about the Earth than any other group has ever done before.”<
