I don't know but I'll always believe the truth to ancient civilizations lies in Antarctica. There is something lying under that ice that will shed enormous info on the history of mankind.
The average ice thickness in antarctica is 6000 feet!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We just now are starting to really explore this continent. Can only imagine what lies beneath. Or will we ever be told?
As a result of their findings, the scientists believe that the submarine mountains, whose summits now top out at between 800 and 1,000 metres below the surface, were volcanic islands in the Caribbean Sea some 40 to 50 million years ago.
The ice volume approached their maximum values 30,000 calendar years ago. The lead up to the LGM was dramatic, with sea levels dropping 50 meters in about 1,000 years (that's about 2.5 inches a year). Those levels remained constant or nearly so until 19,000 years ago. After that period, the sea level rose about 15 mm per year until 9000 years ago. Modern sea levels were reached approximately 7,000 years ago.
