How was this city related to the Indus Valley civilization, do you know? Southern end, or not related at all?

blam, do you have a ping list? Once in a while I'm lucky enough to stumble into one of your postings and I find them very interesting. I'd like to be on your list, please.

Graham Hancock 'English marine archaeologist'. That alone makes me squint a little harder. I'd like to see those credentials please. Not that he isn't a fun read but you have to take his speculations with a bit more than a grain of salt.

Consider the source please.

Born in Edinburgh, Scotland, Hancock's early years were spent in India, where his father worked as a surgeon. Later he went to school and university in the northern English city of Durham and graduated from Durham University in 1973 with First Class Honours in Sociology. He went on to pursue a career in quality journalism, writing for many of Britain's leading newspapers including The Times, The Sunday Times, The Independent, and The Guardian. He was co-editor of New Internationalist magazine from 1976-1979 and East Africa correspondent of The Economist from 1981-1983.

Graham Hancock is a journalist with a background in Sociology not an Archaeologist 'marine' or otherwise. He writes excellent stories and speculates about things that are considered mysterious. I'm not knocking him because I don't think he wrote the article but, for someone to hang the hard earned title of Achaeologist on him in order to legitimatise what is nothing more than assumptions about some underwater ruins is improper and does a diservice to legitimate experts in the field of Archaeology.

Just curious. Have you ever read Written in Stone by Chet Raymo? It's a little book that addresses geology through the millenia. Fascinating.

Fascinating. Anyone catch the Discovery Channel (I think) program on mega-tsunamis the other day? They mentioned a distaster of just this sort on the coast of India.

9,500 B.C. -- that's OLD, but this site seems to be on the south eastern part of the Indian continent, while that one is on the central western part and at a tentative date of 15000 B.C., faaaaaaaaaar older.
