Thanks for the update on this amazing story from earth's past. This setting, the evaporated Mediterranean basin, was used in a very entertaining sci-fi/fantasy series by Julian May: The Saga of Pliocene Exile. It had "everything" - aliens,time travel, prehistoric beasties, Irish mythology, psychic powers, etc.

Also a fantasy set by Randall Garrett and somebody else - The Gandalara Cycle - pretty entertaining IIRC.
