I don’t have much use for the late Gavin Menzies, but like a lot of fringe authors, he has dug out some obscure facts that are generally ignored because of, well, reverse cherry picking. :^)
That Hunting Atlantis show exposes a lot of bunny holes.
For example, I’d never heard of the Lycian culture before.
Many other examples, including the little explored Büyük Menderes River Basin (under the silt).
It’s maddening because I put on the show as background as I work a project, but it’s got enough detail that it’s distracting my focus.
Now the show’s exposed an event at Mt. Etna 5500-6500 BC which affected at least a portion of the Eastern Mediterranean with a tsunami exceeding an estimated 50 meters (aka “Neolithic Etna tsunami”; I was admittedly ignorant of that event).
Too many bunnyholes. Gotta put on something else...
