How was this city related to the Indus Valley civilization, do you know? Southern end, or not related at all?

They should have signed Kyoto and avoided global warming.

English marine archaeologist Graham Hancock Graham Hancock is a freelance overseas journalist. He learned S.C.U.B.A. just so he could journalize ancient sunken cities. He digs deep and brings up cultural info that usually would be missed. He would have been a great cultural anthropologist.

AFAIK, Cambay is on the East Coast of India. This site appears to be in the south/south near the Bay of Bengal.

Graham Hancock 'English marine archaeologist'. That alone makes me squint a little harder. I'd like to see those credentials please. Not that he isn't a fun read but you have to take his speculations with a bit more than a grain of salt.

Graham Hancock's Underworld stuff is
here
To: blam
That's in the gulf of Cambay near gujarat. The site in the article in near Tamil Nadu in the south. The gulf of Cambay is closer to the locations of the indus valley civilization.
To: blam
Consider the source please.
Born in Edinburgh, Scotland, Hancock's early years were spent in India, where his father worked as a surgeon. Later he went to school and university in the northern English city of Durham and graduated from Durham University in 1973 with First Class Honours in Sociology. He went on to pursue a career in quality journalism, writing for many of Britain's leading newspapers including The Times, The Sunday Times, The Independent, and The Guardian. He was co-editor of New Internationalist magazine from 1976-1979 and East Africa correspondent of The Economist from 1981-1983.
Graham Hancock is a journalist with a background in Sociology not an Archaeologist 'marine' or otherwise. He writes excellent stories and speculates about things that are considered mysterious. I'm not knocking him because I don't think he wrote the article but, for someone to hang the hard earned title of Achaeologist on him in order to legitimatise what is nothing more than assumptions about some underwater ruins is improper and does a diservice to legitimate experts in the field of Archaeology.

It was just something I noticed. Maybe you can do the same for me someday; I do stuff like that all the time, only I'm hopeless.
