It was a busy coastline for a really, really long time. It's nice that the find was made at "40-60 meters (yards) deep", but much more shallow sites have yielded ancient wrecks in the area.

Of interest ?

The remains of what has been described as a huge lost city may force historians and archaeologists to radically reconsider their view of ancient human history.

Marine scientists say archaeological remains discovered 36 metres (120 feet) underwater in the Gulf of Cambay off the western coast of India could be over 9,000 years old.

The vast city - which is five miles long and two miles wide - is believed to predate the oldest known remains in the subcontinent by more than 5,000 years.
