"Remember, sea levels were several hundred feet lower during the last Ice Age."

300-500 feet. Most people accept 400 feet, as a rule of thumb.

"The findings buried 40 metres below the sea reveal some sort of human civilisation, a courtyard, staircase, a bathroom or a temple."

Ummmm. This is definitive...

Although Palaeolithic sites dating back around 20,000 years have been found on the coast of India's western state of Gujarat before

Do you have more information or links to the 20,000-year-old sites? thanks.

"Etruscan"

Don't know. (Haven't developed a 'blam' theory on this one yet. It will need to 'soak' a couple more days, lol)

Cool discovery blam... I'm wondering if discoveries of sites from before the Tower of Babel incident will reveal only one language in use for all people then. Okay, so I'm a kook.

Any reliable time-frame estimate? If the town flooded in 7500 BC, it might have been around even longer.

I posted the only two mentions I've seen of this discovery. I expect any civilization found at this site will exceed the dates posted. The theories about the Sphinx being about 10k years old don't seem so foreign now, huh?

I would say, NAH. There were people all over the world then and had many different languages.

"Check out the legend of the "Nine Unknown Men." Do a Google search. It's pretty heady stuff."

I did a search on this subject. All I found were articles about the Bavarian Illuminati and 3,000 year old Egyptian aircraft. No word about these nine fellows. Can you provide a link?

Great! I've always strongly believed "civilization" is much older than most of the conventional wisdom claims, so anything that helps push the clock back is always interesting news.
