Previously undiscovered ancient city found on Caribbean sea floor
Herald de Paris ^ | 12/9/2009 | Jes Alexander

WASHINGTON, DC (Herald de Paris) - EXCLUSIVE - Researchers have revealed the first images from the Caribbean sea floor of what they believe are the archaeological remains of an ancient civilization. Guarding the location’s coordinates carefully, the project’s leader, who wishes to remain anonymous at this time, says the city could be thousands of years old; possibly even pre-dating the ancient Egyptian pyramids, at Giza.

The site was found using advanced satellite imagery, and is not in any way associated with the alleged site found by Russian explorers near Cuba in 2001, at a depth of 2300 feet. “To be seen on satellite, our site is much shallower.” The team is currently seeking funding to mount an expedition to confirm and explore what appears to be a vast underwater city. “You have to be careful working with satellite images in such a location,” the project’s principle researcher said, “The digital matrix sometimes misinterprets its data, and shows ruins as solid masses. The thing is, we’ve found structure - what appears to be a tall, narrow pyramid; large platform structures with small buildings on them; we’ve even found standing parallel post and beam construction in the rubble of what appears to be a fallen building. You can’t have post and beam without human involvement.”

Asked if this city is the legendary city of Atlantis, the researchers immediately said no. “The romanticized ideal of Atlantis probably never existed, nor will anyone ever strap on a SCUBA tank, jump in the water, and find a city gateway that says, ‘Welcome to Atlantis.’ However, we do believe that this city may have been one of many cities of an advanced, seafaring, trade-based civilization, which may have been visited by their Eurocentric counterparts.”

Yes he did. I’ve waited for decades for this to be discovered. He said that it was Atlantis.

What a farce, the top photo shows a shallow angle view of the ocean that has some poorly photoshopped weirdo image beneath. Same with the second - notice the clouds at the center top suddenly have this city in the clouds too.

Wow. They were a pretty advanced civilization. Roads, warehouses, parking lots.

Definitely way ahead of their time.

Well...that certainly provided a welcome 45 minute detour from the present. Sunshine Superman, Catch the Wind, Barabajagal, and on and on. YouTube is great for the link after link after link (all the Donovan, for instance), and then the nifty little divergence (the Bob Dylan stuff, in this case).

But, back to work...

Black Sea & Mediterranean Sea sudden flooding = catastrophism.

This, like Sundaland, looks like plain, old fashioned vanilla flavored gradualism, from glacial melt, IF it's really there; and "there" is really in under the Caribbean.

Let's get real, shall we?
CGI has existed in sophisticated form only a few years, after all.

This may be a good time to divulge that I and a small team discovered a much larger underwater city in a location that I can't identify for the usual reasons.

But it's there and it's huge, trust me.
It was discovered in the southern Caribbean, in May of 1999, on a Tuesday, around 3:35 pm local time.

That’s what coral reefs look like after you adjust their image using the same programs they used at CRU.

Looks like an old aerial shot of the streets around Disneyland.

Too fishy, gotta remember the latest craze is to see how gullible people are, especially from “factcheck sites”.

Seems illogical to me that such a group would put out photoshopped photos in this day and age. They are not so stupid as to think they’d be undiscovered longer than a few hours.

Most likely off the coast of Honduras or Nicaragua.

Humans normally live around water, and 80% of all the targets our military might ever have wanted to hit were once said to be within the range of Iowa-class ship guns. That also says that most of any remains of antediluvian civilizations will be beneath the waves. The waters of the flood never "went" anywhere, there is simply more water on the planet now than there was 5000 years ago.
