Scientists Are Investigating Signs of Ancient Human Civilization Underwater
- matheweis 4y agoIt’s always interesting to see archaeologists and anthropologists speculate about the use of something thousands of years later, with little to no context from that time. Here’s a (modern day) Italian fellow who has been dropping 10 ton marble blocks into the ocean, but not before working with sculptors to work them into some creative shape. Why? To stop illegal trawling! That’s going to cause some anthropologists some fun in the future. https://www.nytimes.com/2019/09/24/world/europe/italy-tuscany-fishing-art.html https://www.nytimes.com/2019/09/24/world/europe/italy-tuscan...
