Could it be that the present isnt the key to the past? Could there have been a previous flood whose evidence was buried and obliterated by the more recent flood described in the report?

The massive drought/ climate catastrophe that preceded the desertification of most of Africa drove our ancestors to live in the areas near the sea like the caves near Capetown SA where Homo heidelbergensis became dependent on high protein sea fool which, in turn fueled their brains. When the Mediterranean reflooded they spread throughout Africa, Europe and Asia evolving into homo erectus and eventually ourselves.

At least that is one set of facts that has been supported by the fossil record and the great number of artifacts found in the far south of Africa. Amazon Prime has an interesting documentary “The Story of Us”.

"...five kilometres deep and 20 kilometres long, and created a waterfall with a 1.5 kilometre drop."

Call me a backwards 'murican, but I hate the metrification of the language.

5.3 million years ago way before modern man even existed.

So say mainstream archaeologists. Decades worth of suppressed evidence says otherwise.

But most cultures have a legend about a massive flood, roughly around the same time in history.

Immanuel Velikovsky got crucified by the scientific community when he wrote Worlds in Collision in 1950.

Most of it makes more sense to me than the current expalanations.

Thanks - I was trying to remember who wrote those books with Randall Garrett. Was a favorite when I was young.

Thanks. Confirms my suspicions.

Hard to believe that there are salt deposits on the bottom of the Med. that are 2 miles thick. The type of salt there is formed only in direct sunlight.

Canadian ice sheets broke up about 13,000 to 14,000 years ago. Dogerland flooded, the Seine valley because the English channel, the Mediterranean, then the Black sea flooded. (There ruined buildings under both the Black See and the North Sea.)

The Catastrophism ping list began life as an informal and stealth version of a Velikovsky ping list; however, the bulk of the pings (it’s a low-volume list) pertain to catastrophism, rather than to his reconstruction of ancient history.

The Med has dried out a bunch of different times, for various lengths of time, but it has generally ended the same way, and from the same direction.

They use the metric system in Aussie land, where this magazine is published. Crikey!
