Technical Details

Seed Number: 115 669 520
Version: XBL 1.5 (TU12) (PC equiv 1.2.3)

Notes

Without question, this is one of the most complex underground areas that I've found so far. I counted no less than six underground cave complexes that all branch out toward X=0,Z=0. That means that there's a possibility that some of them may meet to form one single massive complex -- which would be outrageous -- or you could dig to connect them. Conversely, the top side is full of villages. Lots of stuff to see and do.

Etymology

Socrates was a great thinker of Ancient Greece. One of his pupils was Plato. Both men would become famous throughout history as great arguers, thinkers, and speakers.

Notes

Some nice villages in this one, including one that conceals a deep cave system. I also found a cave running parallel to a ravine full of waterfalls. The cave has a "window" of sorts past which the water flows. That was really sweet.
