Here's (click) a map of the world with the water reduced by a little over 300 ft. Notice that the Mediterranean is in two , possibly three sections...and this is without further dessication that would have occured after the blockage. Some say the depth of the worlds oceans were reduced by 500 ft. (Lots of islands)
There's a lot of old stuff along the Adriatic. Looks like a lot of that was dry land back then. That probably flooded real good and there might be villages under the water there, too.
