Previously undiscovered ancient city found on Caribbean sea floor

This is absolutely phenomenal! What a discovery!! Fingers crossed for exploration funding…

While I would like to believe the pictures show the remains of an ancient city, I am skeptical because the city is laid out like ours today. In the upper center part of the main photo there is what appears to me to be an airport with a single runway connected to a parking apron. Left of the apron are buildings like those found at many small airports, including a long narrow building which I think is a strip hangar. There are other details that make me believe the pictures are not of an ancient city, just intentionally or otherwise bad photography.

These just don’t look real, I don’t know if this is a money grabbing hoax, it’s strange that they’ve called for funding, this kind of thing would be gov-funded if it was such a big find.

So, how do you attract the attention of government funding? NEWS.

You attract the attention of government funding by approaching the government it was found in and the government of the crew’s nationalit(ies) with the discovery.

THIS IS REMARKABLE…PERHAPS THE ARCHAEOLOGISTS WILL HAVE TO CHANGE THE WHOLE SCOPE OF THEIR PAST THEORIES BASED ON THIS FIND….ABOUT TIME….

As an individual with a lifelong interest in the science of geology and geological mapping, I find this unusual “discovery” interesting. It will be intriguing to see what comes of this.

I think it may be the ancient city of Atlantis! Edgar Cayce –”Sleeping prophet” said it would be found around theis time and that it would be in the Caribbean!

Helicopters, airplanes, spaceships have been around since Adam & Eve, Supremebeing could be God. The ancient art work indicates that helicopters did exist as well as the techonology.

It’s so obviously not a city. It’s digital compression artifacts.

Along the same lines as the discovery of this ancient civilization, true or not, is the remarkable discovery of a lost sacred pattern that has successfully linked ancient artifacts to UFOs, crop circles and the Nazca Lines in Peru Don’t miss the evidence the Los Angeles Times labeled “UNSETTLING”
Just Google “Inaja UFO Photo” . A 2006 CBS Special highlights the discovery that has sparked a new consciousness.

It almost looks like a circuit board. So much for lobal warming causing the sea levels to rise. This entire city is underwater and is thousands of years old. I guess land masses go up and down thus causing the oceans to reise and fall. As the real scientists have been saying, we’re simply going through a normal cycle.

This is TOTAL B.S.: “The site was found using advanced satellite imagery” oh yeah? Who’s satellites? no way Jose., this is total crapp-ola. Nice try though!

I’ve always believed that there were civilizations and societies that were far more advanced then us, in the past. Atlantis can be explained with high enough technology, suppose they had technology that was far ahead of ours, but were lost to time because of the nature of our planet’s surface? There could be Atlantisses buried underneath the water in every ocean, or under the earth, that were part of an ancient, inter-connected civilization that came long before us.

Maybe the Ice Age ended their world, or they were the victims of plate tectonics? Maybe they left when things got bad? Could the Atlanteans and their cohorts have been originally from off this planet? Either way, it wouldn’t be such a leap that this extremely advanced civilization would have had spaceships or portal/wormhole technology. There sure wasn’t much left to us to find, either because the Earth destroyed most of the evidence, or the whole study around this subject has been suppressed.

could these pictures of”the bimney wall”stones cut at right angles,ninety degrees,. i not sure but i believe “the bimney wall,were discovered in early 1970’s.on show hosted by”Rod Streiring,with a sponsor from “timex watches,wear with confendence…”the timex commercial a movie from of earth taken by nasa,i beieve.good luck finding that vhs tape it was sod excusivey by”Wooworths department store.anyone have a time machine?

Modern man has no idea when people ancient and not so ancient traveled or how far they went. China and the Pheonicians were trading off the coast of california over a thousand years ago. Who knows what these ruins are of? They are proof of nothing except people who were here before weren’t as technologically lacking as we thought and were more world travelers than we know.

I don’t understand their immediate knee-jerk response in the negative when asked if this could be Atlantis. Why is that such an impossible thing to imagine?

Let’s keep our minds open. Maybe it is Atlantis and maybe not.

And I suppose next, you’re going to tell us that the bottom right of image four is really the hand of God? Gimme a break

This was actually discovered years ago, but after the initial announcement went quiet for some time. It’s great to see it making news finally.

As a point of interest, there are also ruins off of Japan, replete with easter island type heads and mayan style pyramidal structures that have been explored years ago by national geographic. Supposedly where they are located has been under water for more than 17,000 years. It’s fairly easy to find clear pics online.

Between this, the city found off the coast of india last year and japan, a very different picture emerges of the sophistication of pre historic man’s civilization. Makes you wonder what exactly wiped them out, and lament the loss of ancient repositories of knowledge like Alexandria which may have held the answers…

That thar is a picture of a computer chip!

You should contact a great American Scientist by the name of Professor James McCanney. His website is: http://www.jmccanneyscience.com
He can tell you, as he studied, and taught in Central America, and saw first hand many sites that were first unearthed while he was there. Also, Comets……..can, and did cause great cataclysmic events throughout earths, and mans history. We like to say, “His-Story”, as in the one True Gods history. Hope you take a look at Professor McCanney’s books as well. Something to entice you……What was there in Glastonbury, England that could shed light on these events? Professor McCanney’s books can answer these questions, as well as the late great American Archeologist E. Raymond Capt and his wonderful books. Just do a simple search for his books, which can been found also at:

Looks like LA. Is that a Wal-mart I see in there, the one with all the trash in the parking lot ?

Where have you guys been for the last three years? Look to the Amazon and you can see more in the lakes and riverbeds. Watch my video. Sorry I only had the access of Google earth satellites.

This story smells of more bullcrap than the Great Plains after a stampede.

Those photos are supposed to be of a sunken city?

Mule muffins! The fact something that big shows no signs of erosion is key enough. Stories like this without any backup to support them smell like someone’s attempt to acquire capital for a wild goose chase.

Years back a Russian team claimed to have found artifacts off of Cuba. We’ve heard nothing since.

Unless these people and this website are going to do some verifiable reporting I’d say leave it alone until something validating comes to the fore.

@Laura Kosci: ‘Helicopters, airplanes, spaceships have been around since Adam & Eve.’

True. But what about more humble technology such as the Remington Fluff-Away? I think these were also available in Biblical times – because they would certainly have been a useful addition to the helicopters, spaceships and airplanes. I mean – I’m not saying they’re not handy to have around or anything – but what if there was a situation where Noah’s hat, or Bilbo’s cloak, was all covered in bobbles? You’re not going to solve that issue with a helicopter, are you?

I really think it’s high time that serious historians paid more attention to ALL the Biblical technology that was available – not just the helicopters, airplanes and spaceships.

Ummm….. yeah right….

Too many .jpg artifacts in the images to be of any usage to anyone for conclusive proof analysis… Seems the conversion translation from the original format introduced standard artifacts making the edges appear uniform.. too bad as the color variations show “something” is different at the upper region of the photographs..

This is a flaw in the photograph processing procedures which in turn means the claims is “premature”

I don’t believe it. Its a google maps problem. You can look at rivers and lakes all over the world and you see the same thing. Sorry to burst any bubbles.
Look for your self. Its all over the world. Research with something other than google earth.

I’m sure the whole planet is filled with ancient advanced civilization
that sank into the sea.

lloyd

There are plenty of legitimate underwater artifacts around, but this one looks a LOT like a modern city with some Photoshopping done. It looks pretty incredible but I’ll have to see more before I can make a decision as the whether this is a hoax or not. I could understand not trusting the local gov’t if you think they’ll just take possession of the site and then give you the boot. How enthusiastic would you be about dealing with someone like the Haitians?

IF it is Atlantis (as prophecy states will be found, as well as rise again), then the New Age of Conciseness is around the corner. I also don’t buy parts of this story though. Ground Penetrating Radar is old technology for the military, and I’m quiet sure the secrets have been taken by certain organizations worldwide as the implications would destroy them (or they have tried and failed). It may be these Saucers citys too-as even the Russian government has released classified files this year about ‘unknown flying objects) submerging into the see from the earths atmosphere. Hell, the aliens could already be here-WTF do we know?

Edgar Cayce predicted evidence of atlantis to be found in a specific date ( i forgot) and there were found some strange rock formation on the caribian on the same date Cayce predicted but it was dismissed. Now on the same area this??? Well, looks like this is where Atlantis used to be.

If you look closely, you can see Starbucks.

There are some holes in his story, like what satalite found the city? How deep or how shallow the water? Will he share info with explorers? I believe this will go away like the diving explorer who found a crystal sphere in a undersea temple in the caribbean in the 70’s showed it to the media and all it’s strange electrical & magnetic properties and was never heard from again, no follow-ups.

bunk – more fakes. internet age it the age of hoaxes and this isn’t even a good one. always a ’secret’ location, unamed reasearchers. You can bet if Ballard had found something like this, he’d have it on the front page of any and all news outlets, locations and all, like all legit research. bunk garbage not worth the webspace it occupies except for those fantasy seekers who thrive on escapism; i feel sorry for them.

Those obviously are aerial images of ground installations, not underwater shots. This is totally bogus.

Looks like a circuit board from a distance.

Look! There! I can plainly read: “TRUMP” on the face of that ancient casino in ruins. Makes me wonder if this civilization failed because of fiat currency, or what?

Truly, this is a magnificent thing to see!

Truly an amazing find.Are these the fossils from this civilization?Check it out http://www.youtube.com/humanswin

It must be the hidden city of the outer space aliens! Now that we have found them- they will attach us! We’re DOOMED!

It’s too big, too arranged, too obvious. It’s fake in my opinion and to survive in that condition for thousands of years in warm salt water and not be overgrown by sea life? I’ll have to see it to believe it.
FAKE!

These appear to be digital imaging anomalies, commonly found especially on older versions of Google Earth.

The pic is clearly a fake.. cmon guys

Please read some of Graham Hancock’s research, he has found lots of evidence of underwater cities around the world. Nothing new though, Charles Berlitz and others where writing about it years ago. Cayce predicted Atlantis would first start to reveal itself in 1969, the year the Bimini road was discovered. It was only last year they announced the discovery of quays about a mile from Bimini, built in the style of the Phoenicians. I’d say these have been discovered years ago, the establishment too afraid to reveal the information the the great unwashed. The only thing I’d like to know is why now? To provide evidence for climate change, put the fear of God into us about rising sea levels?

Sorry, not buying it….yet. We’ll see.

I am an archaeologist. Personally, I strongly believe that early civilizations remain to be found. Though as much as I would like to believe this were a legit find, it seems doubtful. More likely a photographic hoax.

A city submerged for thousands of years would not be as identifiable as what is shown in this photo. It would be more along the lines of the Yonaguni site. Even a site submerged for a hundred years or two would be difficult to discern from straight photography, it would be covered with silt, sand, barnacles, coral, etc. A site thousands of years old would be that much more difficult.

On the other hand, as long as people keep searching, I’m sure some interesting finds remain to be found beneathe the surface!

I understand the unknown can be frightening, however this should not be dismissed so easily. Please Google Dwarka, Japan Pyramids, and (submerged) Thracian City. Why so unbelievable?

JeffX writes: “Who’s satellites?”

Well, there are several thousand of them in orbit. Many are privately owned by companies such as Orbimage, Spot, and Space Imaging, all contracting to private research institutes. Let us not forget that SpaceX now has the capability to launch as well.

Also, I don’t think there’s anything particularly novel about a 90 degree road plan. Seems about as old as time itself…

” Is it Atlantis? No!!! ”

They will not let the discovery of atlantis, which was real by the way, ruin their BS history they have published for everyone. The pyramids are not 5k years old, they are 70-75,000 years old. Scientists can’t explain the earths history because they know absolutely nothing about it and make up stories so their so called expert opinion can mold together. Half the pyramids discovered were buried before they were even discovered! Do you think that could happen if they were built by the Egyptians over the last 5k years??? Don’t believe what you read about earths history, its all bs.

Atlantis was real and it was located on an island between the Atlantic coast of America and Europe. Google map the ocean and you will see an underwater city out i the ocean with grids just like this.

Wake up people. Our history is NOT what they are telling us.

Actually, a costly expedition to investigate the site may be unnecessary. I am sure that Ron Montgomery/Stewart, a renowned scientist who has developed a process called Penetrating Photographic Process, or PPP for short, which can extract an unlimited amount of information from any photograph and thus allow virtually infinite enlargement without pixelation, would be only too pleased to collaborate with the project team that discovered these ruins. With the application of PPP to these images we could actually get a glimpse into the structures of this city and see how its inhabitants lived many centuries ago.

There were many civilizations that lived on earth before Noah and the flood.
Civilizations that grew and prospered….there are buried Cities that had
concret stronger and better than we have today. Noah and families after
the flood started the 7th Dispensation.

Doesn’t anyone ever analyze the tools they are given. Google uses many different satellites to map the earth’s surface. The focusing is based on “Eye Altitude” of the surface. Some sections “variations of color ” indicate the different satellites that were used. Some focus down to 2000′ while others won’t let you get within 20,000′ . If they see something they recognize as a security issue “or are told too ” they “Black” it out. Otherwise they have no control over what is there. Maybe you count too much on commercial science to be truthful. They are only out to BEAT the bottom line in profitability just as everyone else is. It is up to the individual to KNOW what could be and seek their own TRUTH. Or just stay dumbfounded and happy with the current state of the world. Have a beer, watch the game, until they bleed you stupid. It’s up to YOU. Peace!

This is 100% BS! They used Google Earth. You can see the same
patterns other places. Open Google Earth and zoom in on Svalbard.
Find the small city “LongYearByen”. Zoom in on the sea outside the city.

Interesting, but lacking enough details.
The photos are questionable, but who are the researchers, from what group,
college, etc?

They are not named which is very fishy.
Only time will tell if there is any truth to this?

interesting photons? my mind is challanged but my first thought is are they fake a hoax? one only needs to look at the cover of al gores latest book to see the evidance documented on the cover, photoshop immages painted on to it with digital glue? these photos need to be confirmed by an outside party.

if this is not a hoax, it is more evidance of god’s case documented in the flood insident? maybe there are giant skulls in the sand nephliums more evidance of god’s account of this flood judgement on wicked men! but you are your own god who needs a god when you are a god evolving into your next state of godhood? you will read into it what ever will lead others away from the truth and the truth is you need yahshua mercy on your daily sin life harry.

This reminds me of the guy that took the low-res jpeg versions of images from Mars orbiters, blew them up to larger size images, and then claimed that the image artifacts that this causes were in fact ancient cities on the surface of Mars.

Now, if you had images from different angles and times of year and all of them had an identical pattern, then you’d have something. Perhaps the “discoverer” can provide some new images and a comparison be done of the supposed structures?

My hope is that this makes the Illuminati Masonic 33o Scottish Rites London Bankers and criminal military mafia quake in their boots. They must already be in a humble mood due to all the UFO activity and anything that makes these greedy human garbage that consider themselves “God’s Chosen” a good thing. Sure there are a few, (very few) good people down here– but most of our greedy humanity will destroy itself, eventually. Then another, and let’s hope more peaceful and enlightened civilization will find our greedy humanity on the bottom of another ocean.

The thugs that run and ruin our lives with there toxic poison must have known about this for a long time. HOW could they not?? They have control of SATs,–for ages. AS they continue to spew and comtaminate the planet with Chemtrails, HAARP weather modification, variants of Swine Flu and H151 and such, let this warning be heard–they will be next.

ONE other thing is for certain–HELL waits for them in the next incarnation as it is certain there is life after death. This evil that destroys this planet will find no spiritual peace. I guarantee it.

So let us behold this wonderful find. And maybe this will help the naysayers to believe in something more than saving their own backsides and the next line of cola. Take a good look–this city could be Tokyo from the air…..lines, streets, homes, buildings and factories, ie., symmetry. We have all been here before, (like the song.)

They don’t teach catastrophism because it doesn’t fit the ‘order’ of religion. The Earth suffers major catastrophic events on a TIMELY basis. The celestial year ALL the ancients knew about is over 26,000 years long. And catastrophic events happen almost on cue when our solar system passes thru certain parts of the galaxy. It is clockwork. WE HAVE AND ARE BEING LIED TO. F the powers that be.

The water that covered the earth from the global flood as recorded in the Book of Genesis came from the “fountains of the deep”. The water was extremely warm. Clouds blocking the sun in the years after the flood were the real cause of the Ice Age, as there was heavy snowfall and, with low temperatures, accumulation on a grand scale as it never fully melted in some locations. As the temperature of the earth cooled and there were less clouds blocking the sun, the glaciers melted and many coastland areas were engulfed by water. Look at many of the ancient underwater ruins found along many, many coastlands and there it’s tough to deny this. The ancients were very sophisticated in their ability to travel by sea. Take a look at the Table of Nations in the Book of Genesis that shows how mankind spread out from Babel. You will find that many lands were named after the men who spread out from Babel. While most consider the Book of Genesis no more than a fable, there is a great chance that it tells the truth about the origin of mankind and our common origins from one man and one woman (Adam & Eve). Do a search for the “Border Sacrifice” that took place in China for a couple thousand years. You will find that prior to dabbling in paganism, the ancient Chinese seemed to believe in one God and used language to worship Him that is undeniably similar to that which was used by the people of Israel. China’s origins are traced back to ancestors of Noah who helped clear the coastland of lingering flood damage. Look at the many different and far-spread cultures that have flood “legends” that mention the survival of eight people in a boat. There are too many coincidences to deny that they are dealing with the same story that was passed down verbally from their ancestors who trace their origins to Noah’s Ark.

Here’s the conclusions to the blog posted today on my site andrewcollins.com:

—-ooo—-

Meanwhile, the series of pictures released of the alleged site are not convincing those who I work with investigating the mysteries of the past.

“My initial reaction is hoax,” one close colleague, journalist and writer David Southwell, said. “It is the tone of the article. lt does not read right.”

This was also the response of Rodney Hale, another trusted colleague working in the field of electronic engineering and digital technology: “I would say a hoax,” he says. “If the images were taken from an orbiting satellite, you would not get the perspective effect from that height.”

More disconcerting is another trusted colleague’s valued first opinion, which simply reads: “This is complete nonsense….a spoof.”

Oh well, just maybe they are wrong. I doubt it, though, this probably is just a psychological experiment to divert me from my real work for a day or so.

But if, after reading this, you still want to approach this fantastic story with any kind of open mind, then I strongly advise you tread very carefully indeed. Remember, you have been warned.

“Asked if this city is the legendary city of Atlantis, the researchers immediately said no. “The romanticized ideal of Atlantis probably never existed,”

Only a scientist could make such an ignorant answer. Based on the answer the odds that this super complex structure is part of Atlantis is > 90%.

Plato wrote about Atlantis; the Atlantic ocean was name after Atlantis. These so called scientists should read Edgar Cayce and they would know that Atlantis stretched from Bimini to New England all the way to Europe. Under the Atlantic ocean is Atlantis.

Under the Pacific is Mu, OZ and Lemuria.

These same scientists are descended from the 1500’s morons claiming the earth was flat and the earth was the center of the solar system.

If you disagree with me just think of me as Copernicus. wink wink

This is a very interesting report. It seems that if this isn’t a complete fraud, which would be pretty easy to determine, then we are looking at an extremely important find. Looking at the other postings it’s good to see there are others curious as to why other sites like the famous “Bimini Road” and the sites alleged to be off Okinawa haven’t been more fully investigated. Recent surveys showing structures on the seabed just off the Orkneys show that as we get more ability to investigate submerged landscapes we are going to find a great deal that may upset well entrenched notions of pre-history. Recent finds of ancient earthworks near the Brazil/Bolivia boarder show that we still don’t know the full story of the countless cultures that have thrived from antiquity even on . So I’m keeping an open mind, something like this should prove real or else a hoax in a mater of days. I’d be surprised if anyone would be wiling to stick their neck out like this with photo-shopped pictures of computer chips, or whatnot.

oops looking back over the postings it does look like the complete nutters may have the floor. It’s hard to look seriously at investigating the possibility that societies might have been building complex structures further back than we had previously assumed when there are legions of folks trying to shoehorn every bit of evidence into their personal delusions. Oh well, I’ll go back to praying to the aliens

Folks, these are image or sensor artifacts.

“The grid lines are most likely a processing artifact. Most of the ocean bathymetry data comes from satellite measurements of gravity. The gravity data are cross-checked against ship sonar tracks from a variety of vessels. The pattern you are seeing is typical for a research vessel surveying a patch of ocean floor. The gravity data and sonar data don’t always match up perfectly (the sonar data are many times more detailed than the gravity data) so you get these artifacts along the edges of the ship sonar.”

http://googlesightseeing.com/2009/01/28/weirdness-on-the-ocean-floor/

@keys, the submerged Thracian city you’re talking about is Seuthopolis – built by the Thracian king Seuthes III in 320 BC, discovered, researched and submerged under water during the construction of the local dam in 1948. As you could have seen if you had googled it yourself, it’s not so ancient – neither the submerging, nor the construction (at least in “Atlantean” standarts; it’s otherwise rather ancient indeed).
As for the other things – well, conspiracy nuts have to have something to be excited about every now and then, I guess.

The sea people aren’t going to be happy when we invade their city.

Those are classic image/sensor compression artifacts,
as at least someone else has pointed out here.

To claim they are indeed ruins, first it must be proved that:

-They are not image/sensor compression artifacts. This kind of structure is way too common to derive conclusions.
-High resolution imagery must be done.
-Submarine direct exploration of a relevant zone must show agreement with the data.

I am still waiting to see any other news service pick this story up. It seems to have been dropped from the Archaeologica news page. Has this been exposed as a hoax or is there a story here? If it’s not a hoax it’s one of the most important finds ever. There are some pretty compelling suggestions from various posters that the pictures may be frauds. i am not competent to analyze them. I’d sure like to hear some discussion about this, though. One flyover of the area in a helicopter or a quick troll through with a boat equipped with a fish-finder ( or howsabout going big and towing a side-scan fish) would establish whether there is something here that needs investigating. Any site of the size and complexity of that shown in the pictures will offer up proof of itself at pretty much first glance, if this is real.

IF it is an Hoax, and they want fundings, they will have to show some proofs, no government will give you million dollars with no proof at all, or even a simple stone

they have to go in the area, underwater, and see with their eyes, then, and only then
approve the fundings or trashcan the news

Nike — You have grossly misinterpreted my point, which is simply that the discovery of a submerged city is not a heretofore unknown phenomena. Where have I made any claims about Atlantis?

Complimenti agli organizzatori ora speriamo si trovino i fondi per finanziare la ricerca

I’m sorry to destroy your illusions, but what you see is not some underwater features, but an artifact in the satellite images.
As I’m working in the Remote Sensing business I can tell you exactly that this “circuit-board” pattern is often visible in areas where the radiometric image content varies very little (e.g., calm water or shadow, etc.), when the image stretching is based exactly on these areas. This is a result of the data compression that occurs during the data downlink from the satellite. There are some efforts to mitigate this pattern in the Product Processors, but still in a lot of images this effect continues to be clearly visible.

It is widely accepted that some thousands of years ago there existed Civilizations whch sttill are unknown by the contemporary Historians

So we have a lack on information about our origins.

When Columbus arrived in the Carribbean he found only the Carib or the Arawak Indians who were hunters, and gatherers, but maybe they could be de descendants of earlier Civilizations that for one or other reason like for example:

- eartquakes, tsunamis, rising of te sea level, collapse of some areas into the sea-floor, could have collapsed Civilizations without leaving any trcace of their exisitence.

At present the descendants of the Mayans are living in little villages, their ancestors left the big Mayan Cities before the arriving of the Europeans, and the contemporary Historians or Arqueologes are still nos sure for what reason they abandonned those City-States.

I’m afraid this is not an image of Atlantis or anything else. I have seen the same pattern in satellite images of flat water in many parts of the world (the waters around Manhattan, for example) and also in images from Mars (also mistaken for signs of civilization). The patterns are artifacts of the satellite sensor and consequent image processing, as explained by Axel, above.

Nothing more.

Maybe its Hoaxed many its real but what is for sure is that there ARE underwater lost civs.. we are all being left for dark.

cheers

I know there is a company Deep Blue Marine that’s been working down there for a while. I wonder if its them. US stock symbol DPBE, they’ve been recovering artifacts for a couple of years. maybe they got real lucky.

The perfect identity of the rites, ceremonies, traditions, and even the names of the deities, among the Mexicans and ancient Babylonians and Egyptians, are a sufficient proof of South America being peopled by a colony which mysteriously found its way across the Atlantic. When? at what period? History is silent on that point; but those who consider that there is no tradition, sanctified by ages, without certain sediment of truth at the bottom of it, believe in the Atlantis-legend.

There are, scattered throughout the world, a handful of thoughtful and solitary students, who pass their lives in obscurity, far from the rumors of the world, studying the great problems of the physical and spiritual universes. They have their secret records in which are preserved the fruits of the scholastic labors of the long line of recluses whose successors they are. The knowledge of their early ancestors, the sages of India, Babylonia, Nineveh, and the imperial Thebes; the legends and traditions commented upon by the masters of Solon, Pythagoras, and Plato, in the marble halls of Heliopolis and Saïs; traditions which, in their days, already seemed to hardly glimmer from behind the foggy curtain of the past; all this, and much more, is recorded on indestructible parchment, and passed with jealous care from one adept to another. These men believe the story of the Atlantis to be no fable, but maintain that at different epochs of the past huge islands, and even continents, existed where now there is but a wild waste of waters. In those submerged temples and libraries the archeologist would find, could he but explore them, the materials for filling all the gaps that now exist in what we imagine is history. They say that at a remote epoch a traveler could traverse what is now the Atlantic Ocean, almost the entire distance by land, crossing in boats from one island to another, where narrow straits then existed.
H. P. Blavatsky-ISIS UNVEILED I CHAPTER XIV P.558

Has anyone taken the effort to call the telephon number mentioned in the text?

This is so remidial….this effect is caused by water reflecting sunlight directly back into the satellite’s CCD camera. The lens flair causes the circuit board of the CDD camera to be illuminated, and reflected back into the CCD off of the inside (or back) of the lens. It happens all over the place, and quite frequently.

PROOF? Take a look on Google Earth, go to the north coast of the Dominican Republic and Haiti, and find a small town called Pepillo Salcedo on the north coast right on the border between the two countries. From there, go south west just a bit, and look for a red colored mangrove swamp area. Zoom in for a closer look at yet another ancient “city”….I have personally scuba dived on this site, and there is no city, just mud. This is simple, if these scientists and archaeologists had scrupples, they would simply ask NASA what they thought, and they would quickly get the answer as I gave it here.

It looks gigantic!!! fantastic images.

I really hope this is the real deal! The world could use some good news for a change.

I think is really good to know all these things but just imagine
what the Bible say, in the last days you will see things that never have seen before

these are not real as these are caused by data incongesstion by ccr satellites

All, I am not a scientist or underwater archeologist. But I do have Google earth.
I went to the coordinates given in another article, 18.344444, -64.5487988, and saw the site in the article.
I then got curious and looked at multiple locations where there were clouds and saw the same thing. The LAT/LONG locations are: 1) 18’19’29.50’N by 64’34’46’.24’W, 2) 18’18’43.06’N by 64’39’57.48’W, 3) 18.17.56.94’N by 64’39’06.96’W. So either this is a HUGE underwater city or something weird with Google Earth, clouds and the shaded they project.

I guess I should’ve read the trail more thoroughly. This is what Jason said.

I am living in the Dominican Republic and can confirm that the sunken city is not a hoax.
I learned about its existence from the local population ( shrimpfishermen ) about one year ago.
Since I made many trips to the area to find out more, the city is indeed very huge, it goes from Monte Christi to Cap Haitiën across the border and spreads as far as Dajabon inland to the south, and extends as far as the siete hermanos islands in the sea to the north.
Concerning the possibility of excavation ( subterrean and subaquatic ) the rules in the Dominican Republic are very strict. You cannot put a shovel in the ground without a permit from the different government agencies involved.
For this reason I set up a non-profit local Dominican organisation with a couple of friends who also live here and are interested in these kind of matters
We are currently applying for the right to explore
We welcome anybody to join and are willing to share all information we already posses
Concerning a possible explanation : on old seafaring maps one can see an mythical island named Antillia. Columbus is rumoured to have posessed such a map ( portulan ) when he set out on his journey.
Antillia is also known as the island of the ( legendary ) seven cities.
It is not impossible that Hispaniola ( Dominican Republic + Haïti ) is a remnant of Antillia, so I would not be surprised if one day another city will be uncovered under the mangroves in the Dominican Republic ( in the aerea of Samana for example)
The continent of Atlantis went down in different phases. At one point about 12
islands stayed above the water. Antillia was one of them.
So yes the sunken city under the mangroves in Manzanillo bay could be a remnant of the last phase of the legendary Atlantis, further exploration will tell.

The place the local shrimpfishermen showed us is the lake of Carbonera ( 19 39 15 52 N / 71 42 44 71 W ) a shallow expanse of fresh water fed by the Massacre river.
They make a living by catching shrimp in the lake using small flatbottom boats that are moved around by pushing a bamboo pole. In about the middle of the lake exists an area they call ” la Penia ” or ” the rock “.
The place got this name because at this spot it is impossible to anker their boats by fixing their poles in the mud, the usual procedure before starting to catch shrimp The bamboo pole hits a hard surface at about a depth of one and a half meters.
Poling the surrounding area with their help we could delimit a flat expanse 30 meters long and about 10 meters wide ( the pole sinks to the same depth ) covered by half a meter of mud.
Everybody who possesses Google earth can check the existence of the city for himself
The most dramatic view has the following coordinates
19 42 04 74 N ; 71 43 15 20 W
Find the location, zoom in rotate and tilt you will clearly see huge platforms of several buildings, and a breakline with part of the structure sloping up towards the mangrove. The mangrove litterally started to grow on the highest and exposed parts of the structure
How are we planning to proceed further ?
While waiting to obtain all the neccessary permits ( and this can take a very long time in the Carribean ) a lot of groundwork can be done.
Firstly : making a survey of possible excavation sites.
Indeed the google sattelite maps that cover the area are not very recent, the topography of the area has changed during the last 20 years.
When one compares the maps with the actual situation in the field, one realises that many places that are flooded on the google maps are now dry land, in other words it must be possible to get to some part of the ruins without getting ones feet wet. About one to one and a half meters of mud covers the ruins that are under water, once the area is dried up one should be able to get to the ruins after digging away one to one and a half meters of dried mud in some carefully selected spots
To find these sites we plan to fly camera equiped model airplanes over the area
It is a well known fact that subterrean structures can show up in areal photography of cropped fields during draught periods due to the differential uptake of water and minerals by the plants.
Secondly : Involve the governments of both the Dominican Republic and Haïti
The area of Pepillo Salcedo and on the other side of the border Cap Haïtien belong to the poorest parts of Hispaniola. It is obvious that if the sunken city turns out to be what we expect it to be that part of Hispaniola will suddenly gain world attention. Excavating the area could not only give work to hunderds of local people but would also be a huge boost to the local tourist industry which is currently lagging far behind because of want of infrastructure and tourist attractions.
Thirdly : We do not yet have professional archeologists, geologists, anthropologists, ethnologists, etc in our team, anybody interested ?
Finally : welcome everybody of good will wanting to contibrute something constructive to the venture in the spirit of the coming aquarian consciousness

For those of you who find this hard to believe you should be aware that this type of discovery is going on all around the world at this time. I am working
on research pertaining to several geoglyphs in the western United States.
You can see it at “chinese discover america.com”. There appears to be growing evidence that the ancients were capable of flight. Keep an open
mind and follow and enjoy the research as it is published.

For those interested as to how and why we made the link Hispaniola – Antillia – Atlantis check out the little known but amazing and monumental work of Fernand Crombette at the site http://www.ceshe.fr , unfortunately only in french but with interesting selfexplanatory animations

I like the way all of this myth is coming out to be realistic.

We flew over the area ( Pepillo Salcedo mangrove and Carbonera lake ) with a small plane ( cesna ) today and did not see anything, so the hypothesis of the structures showing up in google as being artefacts is not excluded. Only excavation in the field will tell, anybody interested to see the photographs can get them by simple request

You look for the ancients and the remnants of their civilisation hidden on the sea floor?

Then go here in your Google Earth:
31 18′25.61″N, 24 21′43.23″W

As Plato stated through his own research – It is off the West Coast of Africa,the location of what you know as Atlantis

I wouldn’t trust the Government to do squat. Those are the same asshole liars who cover everything up and steal our monies. Fuck The Gov in their ASS with Obama’s dick.
Interesting coordinates Sigrun

HI. I have stumbled on very similar underwater images in the americas. covering areas the size of citys and towns. They appear to be very similar to these photos. They are viewable on google earth. They are located in a very remote area and proberbly would never have been found without me stumbling on them. Anyone interested in viewing them give me an e-mail

My e-mail address is mastonshome@tiscali.co.uk

Mike please send to me. I am also very interested in connecting with the team leader of this Research Project to do all I can to promote the cause and get funding. I incidently originate from the Caribbean myself.. So Jes Alexander please contact me with more info. I will try to contact you soon too. I can help in various ways of really getting the word out.. info@mysticalwonders.org

I have been living and working in the area of the discovery as a marine archaeologist for over 21 years and have dove that very area hundreds of times on shipwrecks. I didn’t see anything like what is pictured but that doesn’t mean its not there…it is a huge area!

I could be of great assistance to the project with logistics and as a liaison with the local government etc.

Contact me please,

That is great footage. It’s time for exploring. Maybe we will find something that could help mankind.

Doubters of sophisticated civilizations??

I jus cant say if its not real but looks like an imagination or may be a faulty image. But honestly, my first reaction is it is b.s.

lol

lets see

Those have to be the worst satellite images ever. Not to mention they look like a circuit board superimposed and transparently overlaid onto a photo of the sky.

As much diving and undersea research that has been done in the Caribean, it’s really surprising that we are still discovering undersea lost cities.

City deeply under the sea ,is impossible , its like a neat road and not mostly muddy or sand cover the city??? i Believe alien live on our earth somewhere , but where ??? I believe these alien who live down this earth are hidden and protect our earth from other alien. These other alien who visited earth , were permission ??? I guess ??? If that how we found out just a while ago ??? who know ?

HI HI i hef a video from Dr.kent hovind…
God Bless you. Jonas…

According to the story, the site is not that far under the surface. If it’s within the reach of most privately owned diving equipment, it wouldn’t take much effort to go and have a look. No need to get millions in funding just to go have a look-see to verify there’s something there worth paying attention to.

How can we be sure that what looks like an underwater city is not simply a reflection of the inside of the google satellite camera? I propose the way to
confirm this as legitimate or not is to get more than one satellite system to
show the exact same image with a different camera. Google maps and Google Earth use the same system so that counts as one. Can anyone
get the exact same image on Bing Maps or any other satellite system?
Confirming it this way if possible would save everyone a lot of time and money.
If its not possible to get an identical shot from another satellite then its
probably an internal reflection of the camera itself. I hope its true. If it is
then I also know where there are several underwater cities in North America
and around the world because I have found similar patterns.
