I'm still trying to find out if the Turkish government flooded a valley which contained some incredible remains of Troy/Constantinople.

Naaaah, they flooded the remains of the Ark. :)

I saw a news report a few years ago that talked of an incredible find not far from modern day Istanbul that contained some incredible (presumably) Roman influenced mosaics. But since the excavation area was set to be flooded for a new development, archaeologists were pleading with the Turkish Gov't to not allow it to happen. Haven't heard one way or another...
