Who puts all that water on top of a castle?
It’s a dangerous area. Eastern Turkey, near the Iran, Iraq, Armenia and Syrian borders...................
Yes, this will be cited as evidence of global warming and rising sea levels centuries ago. And will be used to say that we may see New York under water like this someday.
LoL
They make it sound as if the whole east coast will suddenly be under water in a day. It would actually take hundreds of years. Plenty of time to move inland as the sea reclaimed its domain...................
I don’t understand your problem with the excerpt regarding the sunken Russian ship?
The sub-mariner.

Parents should know that children who have just watched SpongeBob SquarePants, or shows like it, might become compromised in their ability to learn and behave with self-control.

I don't think I even need to highlight what could be the problem here.
I haven't seen this show in many years, and never thought of it as a children's cartoon.

"The Saint Louis Art Museum next year will present “Sunken Cities: Egypt’s Lost Worlds,” the exhibition showcasing finds from underwater archaeological expeditions of Franck Goddio and his team off the coast of Egypt in the sunken cities of Thonis-Heracleion and Canopus. The North American premiere of “Sunken Cities” will be the most significant exhibition of ancient Egyptian art undertaken in St. Louis in more than 50 years."

The exhibit will be visiting other cities in the U.S. as well, but at this point, I don't know which other places it will be going to.
Ask Congressman Hank Johnson, he'll tell you it might have just tipped over.
Gotcha. “Hey, we also found a pair of sabatons and a Bentley tire.” ;-)
The lake is at 5300 ft elevation and has no inlet or outlet (it fills from runoff from surrounding mountains).
How did a Russian ship get there? Why?
