Did the ancients still live under the sea?

According to legend, 9000 years ago, there was a huge land in the "West Sea", which was the continent of Atlantis where the "western powers" were located. This land has beautiful scenery, rich products and highly developed civilization. The people live a rich life, and a strong army is awesome everywhere. Unexpectedly, a devastating earthquake and the overwhelming tsunami that followed made the whole continent of Atlantis bear cities, temples, roads, rivers and all people, and sank to the bottom of the sea overnight and disappeared into the monstrous waves, peaks and valleys. Although Plato's description of "a great western country" is doubted by contemporary scholars, since the 1960s, more and more prehistoric civilization remains have been found on the seabed of Bermuda. A new diving archaeology is brewing.

Bermuda seabed

This new discipline will take it as its mission to uncover the secrets of the sinking and hiding of Atlantis. This will certainly promote people to gradually understand the true face of Bermuda's "magic triangle".

1967, American pilot Roibert Briuis and his assistant Dimitri le Pikov flew at low altitude in Bahaba Islands of Bermuda. Suddenly they found a huge rectangular object underwater in Bimini Island, and they immediately filmed it. Le Pikov, a French underwater explorer, quickly contacted Professor Valentine of Yale University and proposed to organize an investigation team to conduct underwater research on Bimini Island and its surrounding islands.

In August of the following year, the expedition team came to the waters of Bimini Island to carry out underwater archaeological work, and successively obtained a series of unprecedented valuable discoveries. Subsequently, more manpower and material resources were devoted to the investigation of the remains of Bermuda's undersea civilization. Under the water of Bimini Island, huge stone buildings lie on the bottom of the sea. They are compact in structure, large in scale and diverse in form. The large stone wall with a length of 1.600 meters is made of large stones with a length of 4.5 meters, a width of 6 meters and a height of 3 meters, and each stone weighs at least 25 tons. Stone streets are also arranged with rectangular or polygonal stones of various patterns. A flat-topped pyramid with a height of 42 meters and a length of 54 meters on each side sleeps nearly 400 meters under the sea. In addition, there are docks, port equipment relics and marble statues. According to the analysis of submarine limestone near Bahaba Islands, it is proved that it once existed in the air1.20 thousand years ago, which means that it used to be land. An "underwater stone city" with an area of about 50,000 square meters was discovered in the continental shelf of Cuba Island. There are many streets, stone pavements, stone doorframes, stone sculptures and even stone coffins in the complex, which is a veritable stone world. Divers found that this "underwater stone city" is full of shell fossils, which is very old. In addition, along the coasts of Mexico and Honduras, stone dikes were found extending into the sea and disappearing into the sea floor. At the bottom of Hispaniola, many huge stone houses were found, the largest of which was 70 meters wide and 25 meters high. At the bottom of the sea near Andros Island, there is also a fairly old temple relic, 25 meters wide and 30 meters long.

The most exciting discovery in Bermuda is the discovery of the 1978 submarine giant pyramid. At that time, Luo Shiwei, director of the International Diving Center, led some members to visit Bermuda's "Magic Triangle". Suddenly, there was a heavy rain on a sunny day, and the sea was filled with fog in an instant. The white light shone directly into the sky and the ship lost control. They had to give their lives and jump into the sea. When they dived into the depth of 100 meters, they saw a huge pyramid with two big holes. The sea water passes through the hole at an extremely fast speed, causing turbulent waves and water mist to soar into the sky. It didn't take much time. When this phenomenon disappeared, the sea was calm again.

In order to find out the situation of this underwater pyramid, a group of American scientists used advanced equipment to go to Bermuda's "magic triangle" again to investigate. After careful measurement, they found that the pyramid at the bottom of the ocean is 200 meters high, the spire is 100 meters away from the sea surface, and each side of the tower is 300 meters long. It was built about 7000 years earlier than the Egyptian Golden Pagoda. Because the sea water is too deep and the environment is complex, scientists of underwater survey can't be sure whether the pyramids are contemporary products with other ancient buildings on the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean. Two years before the discovery of this giant underwater pyramid, scientists found a pyramid in the depths of Bermuda sea just east of it, with its top 700 meters above the water. Bermuda's latest discovery of submarine civilization sites in the Atlantic Ocean was in 1989, when two Norwegian divers saw an ancient city on an underwater plain in the Magic Triangle. They took pictures with underwater cameras, from which we could see many criss-crossing roads, with buildings with circular roofs on both sides, as well as arenas and rectangular buildings. They are all well preserved. The two Norwegians confidently discovered what Plato called "ancient Atlantis".

This discovery undoubtedly provides new evidence for the history of land and sea changes in Bermuda's waters. Scientists have different opinions about the underwater discovery of prehistoric civilization relics centered on Bermuda waters. Some people think that it is indeed possible to hide the sinking "ancient land of Atlantis" in Bermuda and the vast Atlantic Ocean. Others disagree, because hundreds of submerged waters that may become "western countries" have been mentioned in past dynasties. Maybe Plato's "West Sea" is not the Atlantic Ocean but the Mediterranean Sea. For those imaginative explorers, their ideas are quite strange, which is why they actually doubt whether "Westerners" still live at the bottom of Bermuda.
