"Is this the fault that caused the Med to break into the Black Sea?"

I think it was the melt water from the Ice Age ending that 'popped' the plug at the Bosphorus that flooded the Black Sea, 7,600 years ago.

That's the same time that the last land connection from the continent to Britain was severed.

If you look at the top of Africa it clearly shows that some huge wave swept over it.

The ‘eye of the Sahara’ might have been Atlantis, and the ‘single day and night of misfortune’ was whatever wave swept over the whole continent. I am thinking a huge meteor burst over the Indian ocean. (??)

Also, the bottom half of Africa clearly shows man-made waterways in a grid (mostly filled in, now)
