Unusual ocean floor anomaly situated at a depth of 5 kms

Then I found a series of what appear to be holes forming lines, not at all like what the OP found.

Point taken. I think the round idea still has validity. Often the power point in old venues is on an elevation, which would make the shape of the rest of the site perhaps more variable. Terrain is usually an important consideration in old sites, I would imagine, since one assumes a lack of earth moving equipment.

It's definitely a very interesting find. There must be a way of finding out more about it.

National Geographic has some good articles on Catal Hayuk.

Nat Geo Catl Hayuk

Just follow the link and click on Catal Hayuk in the list.

Atlantis is in the mudflats of Donana Spain, the mudflats used to be a bay, but an earthquake that caused a giant tsunami which washed mud and debris and collapsed the walls of atlantis, Satellite images and ground penetrating radar were used to find the "sunken/buried" city. Whats more is theyre located just north of the "pillars of heracles".

Hello lonewolf!

Here is Part 1 of a good documentary on Atlantis in Spain. (Go to youtube for the rest of the segments)
Is this what you are referring to?
Maybe this should be the subject of a separate thread.

This is kind of an "old story" -- called; "Google Maps used to find Atlantis!"

There is a perfectly reasonable explanation for these "grid like" patterns on the maps; data from numerous satellite photos and ocean vessels (used for "gravity" or depth maps) were stitched together to make our detailed maps of the globe.

When the satellite or "trawler" passes over the map at a different time -- the level of the ocean MIGHT be lower or higher. The depth then changes -- and the artifacts are the result of the different height of the ocean at the time when the measurements are taken.

Those "bottom of the ocean" features are NOT pictures, but based on "gravity maps" -- and those are affected by the amount of water over the feature. And in certain areas it is more pronounced because it is a trawler measuring the area and not a satellite.

Um, this was actually in the MSM a couple of years ago. I do believe it's NOT natural, as in nature there are NO 90 degree turns. Nature tends to want to round out everything, i.e. planets, asteroids, comets, moons, stars, etc.

Absolutely false!

www.abovetopsecret.com...

False? Have you ONCE EVER seen a square planet, moon, etc.??? Or, OR have you ever seen ANY fissures, etc underwater that are perfectly or near perfectly straight and yet have 90 angles that make PERFECT squares? I sure haven't and I LOVE stuff like this. If you can find one, just ONE undeniably NATURAL example of this. I will gladly retract my statement, but until then, I stand by it. But, good pics in the included thread.

Nonsense.

Read your post again.

There are 90 degree turns in nature, your statement is a myth. There are also straight lines.

You need to reread your post, then follow my link again, and repeat until it sinks in.

When you stop saying snowflakes are man-made, think also about how deep this is, and also the sheer measurements of the "city" .

They would have to have been the size of Pilsbury Dough Boy from Ghostbusters for this to make sense....

I'm talking about things affected by weathering. There are no square boulders in nature. They are weathered by wind, water and sand. If it were rocks or anything like that UNDERWATER they would be weathered until they were more round than perfectly square. I'm not sayin' it can't be something natural that looks artificial (see Bimini Road, but who's to stay that's natural as well), I'm just sayin' for all intents and purposes we can say it appears to be artificial, just by the look of the image.

And please, don't be so condescending.

They should send someone to inspect it!Good find!

Am I the only one that noticed the huge crack in the ocean floor that runs from the top of Earth to the bottom?

I would point it out but I'm new with putting pics up here so..But look at the first pic of the earth the op put up and you'll see a crack that runs all the way down!

Bin Laden's new compound???

Sorry, guess I did come across as a jerk. That subject has been on my mind lately (obviously). It just drives me crazy.

I'll try to link the earlier post concerning the size of the structure, if it is a structure. It's too big to be manmade.

I have been a rather aggressive poster as of late, I'll work on that, sorry again.

reply to post by Signals


Well, since you were so nice about it. I guess I can forgive ya. lol But yeah, my thoughts are that IF it is something manmade, it may have taken years to make. I mean, look at some of the man made stuff from history that's insanely huge, the Great Pyramid. lol We'll just have to find out one day. I vote to send some RoVs down and figure out what the heck it is.

Not the same area, but probably the same type of image artifact

www.bodc.ac.uk...

"The GEBCO_08 Grid has been generated by combining measured depth data (collected by ships) with
satellite-derived depth estimates in regions where measured data are not available. In general, the data
sets blend well together.
However in some areas, as in the southern part of the North Sea, this is not always the case. What you
are seeing in these areas is a broad background of estimated depth with specific measured soundings
along survey lines appearing as intersecting lines. The two don't blend exactly because the survey lines
can show more detail."

I've been looking at this anomally for almost 2 years now and this is the first thread I've ever seen about it ...I figured it would have been discussed before but Assuming definatly made an A** out of me thins time!!
I wonder if anybody can get any naval imaging for this area? It might would help on what this is .

I know the Navy has info on hundreds of city like grids out there somewhere...My dad was in the Navy and said hes seen photographs of cities under water!!way back in the early 70's

Any ATS members in the Navy want to help!!

Nice knuckleball pitch. Thanks for the laugh.

hmm something fishy is going on here... should gather all the other pictures together and match them up to see if they have any similarities

this is a very interesting find but to say nothing exists like this in nature is a stretch imo. Nature does some strange things under the right conditions. But maybe more info will come forth showing its origins.




External pic shows example of nature making something similar in pattern known as tessellated pavement.

thats really cool actually...

Still this site is the size of a few city blocks.... and under 5k of water.... nature don't work that way lol

This was found awhile ago.

I have seen it before as well, and really think Sir Branson will be taking his fleet of submarines loaded up with passengers like the Rockefeller's and the entire gang with those green passes when they get word it is time to go down under. Didn't they all just happen to be in India on vacation in May? the entire clan and Gates etc. etc.
The bunker is in India, I need to conduct more research however, maybe they have both, above and beneath the sea, just like Capain Nemo did.

reply to post by tauristercus


Looking at the whole picture it looks like a whole continent about the shape of Africa is underwater.

I don't know why but the phrase "as above, so below" just popped in my mind.

I guess stranger things have happened throughout the life span of our planet.

Its approx the same size as Wales.
