7 Mysterious UNDERWATER Cities

7 Submerged Cities and Settlements From mysterious building found at the bottom of a lake left for centuries to cities which were only previously thought to exist in the realms of fantasy to a...Russian Atlantis these are 7 Underwater Cities. Audio production provided by JaM Advertising www.tasteofjam.com Fuxian Lake is a 212sq km body of water which stretches over three separate counties in southwest China, and for centuries locals who lived on its shores told of the strange sights they had witnessed within its waters. For centuries many believed the ancient city of Heracleion was a myth, consigned to the realms of fantasy along with Atlantis, Valhalla, and wherever the little Mermaid lived. Heracleion was mentioned in the works of the Greek historian Herodotus as somewhere visited by Helen of Troy, but in Greek mythology she was the daughter of Zeus, so this didn’t really help lend the city an air of credibility. Whilst some of the cities on this list were mysteriously lost to the ocean deep, we know exactly what happened to the Chinese city of Shicheng – the government flooded it on purpose in 1959. At nearly 5000 years old the city of Pavlopetri is the oldest underwater settlement humanity has ever discovered, and after sinking sometime around 1000BC these aquatic ruins provide a fascinating snapshot into stone-age life. Phanagoria was a huge Greek city located in modern-day Russia’s Krasnodar Krai region, and whilst some of its ruins can be found on land, approximately a third can be found at the bottom of the Black Sea. An old Welsh legend tells the story of a legendary 6th Century Prince known as Helip ap Glanawg whose kingdom straddled much of modern-day North Wales. The tales mention how Helip had a giant palace built in the area today known as Conwy Bay, but it was destroyed after a storm struck the area and it became flooded by the sea, completely submerging both the palace and surrounding city. Remember how we said Pavlopetri was the oldest known underwater city? Well technically it still is, but only because archaeologists are still arguing over the age of another submerged city found in India’s Gulf of Cambay.

10. Reminds me of the Hancock/Carlson theories that are being considered fringe archeology. Their basic idea is (from memory so I may be off) that human advanced cultures go back further than is commonly believed. Extinction level events caused us to have to rebuild society, and the rising sea level, after the ice age, flooded the major port cities that would have been around at the time.
11. Your pronunciations are atrocious, and you never consult an expert and even try to improve. What was the other name of Thonis? You murdered it.

18. just saying but water might kill us cause all of this is in the water cause the water is rising how i dont care about that i aint that smart but the could make us all go homeless ok i think the more we cover the water the more it will go up cause it cant fo through it so a tsunami will probably go and destroy us i dont know though also it my theory so it might not be true or is it
