I have trouble with the title. Few of these cities are actually "lost". After all, you are looking at their pictures. For a real lost city, refer to Helike, a classical Greek city that was destroyed by an earthquake and tidal wave in 373 BC. A major city of it's time, it participated in the Trojan War, and colonized in Asia Minor and in what is now known as Sicily. It was well documented by Heroditus and Pausaneus, who wrote you could look down in the waters and see the ruins of buildings. Oddly, 373 BC was the year when Plato first began writing about the destruction of Atlantis (another "lost" city).
For more info see http://www.helike.org

Really cool. The part with the bodies of the dead people was kind of creepy though. Thanks for sharing.

But the great Central Asian lost cities have been totally under-represented!

Aurel Stein's book "The Sand Buried Ruins of Khotan" is literally kept under my pillow!

And any way, the list of lost cities I want are the ones we haven't found yet (real ones, not Atlantis). I need a to do list!

I think by using the term "lost" they are referring to that fact that the civilizations are no longer living there... that they are inhabited. It is used rather loosely.

Nevertheless, I just think they are awesome pictures!! Thanks for sharing.
