What Scientists Just Found Deep In The Ocean Is Seriously Unbelievable. I’m Still In Shock

Yeah so am I. The pictures posted are unbelievable to say the least, what do you think, no algae or sign of aquatic life in any photo, least not any I could see, just seems a bit orchestrated to me, eh what do I know, nice pictures though, just not sure how real this find is...

Off the coast of Egypt divers have discovered something that was thought to be lost a long time ago. It was said that the ancient city of Heracleion was lost under the sea for good. Well 1200 years later, off the bay of Aboukir, this ancient city has finally been discovered. The city dates back to the 6th century B.C. and holds some of the most beautiful artifacts you could imagine. Things like grand statues of gods and goddesses standing well over 15 feet tall and carved out of red granite, treasures of gold and rare stones, elaborate temples and enormous tablets. This find is enormous in the historical preservation community and has been commissioned by museums around the world. Take a look at this incredible city found underwater.

If this has already been posted, sorry!

Algae and other forms of encrusting ocean life does not live that deep under water. They all need sun light to live.

Not on any animal planet show I see, not a single fish in any picture, and not one single mollusk, hard sediment, something that looks like it was in the bottom of the sea for 2000 years or so, they just plucked them out pristine like that? Wow, first time ever.

Isn't this an old discovery? I remember reading about this years ago. There may even be some old ATS threads about it.

Something about the way the article is written seems sketchy to me. They don't specify a date or a time period which this discovery took place. How can such a seemingly cheesy source be the one to break this news? I won't get excited until I see this from a more reputable source.

Not true,

When you think of algae, you likely imagine the slimy green growth in a dirty-looking aquarium. Red algae are often shades of purple and red, and they can grow in the deep ocean. Some species are hard rather than slimy, with a beauty reminiscent of coral. Red algae play an important role in the development of coral reefs, providing homes for marine fish.

Just type Heracleion into the ATS serach and you get pages of articles about older threads on thhis same subject. Here's one right here:

Here's something from CNN back in 2015.

I still hadn't seen the pictures before so S&F from me anyways.

Maybe not these particular objects, but yah. They are off the coast of Egypt. Who was it that tried to erase Egyptian history?

Was it the Romans or Alexander?

This is done when empires conquer and try to subjugate peoples by eliminating their cultural identity and historical record.

See ISIS destroying ruins in Syria or Taliban destroying Buddhist ruins in Afghanistan.

Yeah I just went and looked and there are other stories about it and none of them show a copyright date on them, so I don't know when this took place, I just saw it tonight and thought it was strange and decided to share.

Thanks I get it now, old news, still weird pictures though, for these items to be so pristine, pretty amazing, still something like this you would think there would have been much more national attention, maybe there was a plane crash that day and it got wiped in the news cycle.

Didn't Napoleon have a fascination with Egypt?

Yah he did but didn't occupy it like the Greeks or Romans.

This kind of OP is why I originally came to ATS.

Thank you for this find it is truly awesome! I can't wait to see what we will learn.

this is beautiful, is it the city of Heracleion? can i see some links that suggest that? it doesn't matter waht they find they will always hide the truth.

That's what I was thinking as well. Just the headline saying that these items are REALLY DEEP, seems to be a lie. If they were really deep, you'd need a submarine to recover them. Also, you wouldn't see the sun shining down through the water to the artifacts like that.

No doubt that they are there, but there's something not quite right about this "find".

Every warlord has a fascination with Egypt.

I googled the Divers name Frank Goddio and found a more stable website it has all those same pictutes and some You tube video links at the bottom they were uploaded in 2012 will post below..
