#Lost City

[mindblowingscience]

Close to the summit of an underwater mountain west of the Mid-Atlantic Ridge, a jagged landscape of towers rises from the gloom. Their creamy carbonate walls and columns appear ghostly blue in the light of a remotely operated vehicle sent to explore. They range in height from tiny stacks the size of toadstools to a grand monolith standing 60 meters (nearly 200 feet) tall. This is the Lost City.

Lost City

I need a Lovecraftian-style story in which an explorer finds an ancient inscription on a stone monolith, written in a forgotten language, in the antediluvian ruins of a lost city of which only legends formerly spoke.

And then someone translates it, and it turns out to be some king’s plans for an irrigation system.

I don't know about you, but I generally think of the UAE as a whole being one huge desert, and it's good to be reminded that the area has managed to sustain vibrant and active cities in what appear to be otherwise inhospitable places.

The underwater world of lost civilizations...

Underwater cities are a subject that has fascinated researchers for a long time. They are difficult to find and even more difficult to study, but we already know several examples of ruins of lost civilizations that are hidden in the depths of the sea. The most famous is the ancient part of the Egyptian city of Alexandria. The city, founded in 331 AD with a famous library, gradually began to sink when the sea level unexpectedly began to rise. Eventually, the Mediterranean Sea swallowed the historically thinnest part of the city. Today, the ruins are located 6 to 8 meters below the surface of the water and are a popular tourist attraction, and archaeologists are still discovering new facts.

According to Mayan legends, the world has already ended several times (global floods?) and the trace of human civilization ends about 12 thousand years ago (that is how old the oldest human city, Qaramel, discovered a few years ago in present-day Syria). Global studies of the layers of the earth have confirmed traces of the flood about 12-13 thousand years ago / This means that the history of human civilizations, which in the eyes of archaeology is still getting longer… may be at least twice as long. Perhaps many thousands of years ago there were advanced civilizations on all continents and trade, which helped, for example, in similar technical thought in different parts of the world (e.g. building pyramids).

Maybe this is the context of the story of Atlantis?

Of course, some of the flooded cities are the result of earthquakes or ancient climate changes, but it seems that if we were to look for the real beginnings of human civilization, the best place would be… underwater depths.
