It’s probably more due to coastal subsidence than rising sea levels. My favorite is when glaciers retreat there is a rebound effect from pressure which can cause other local land to sink as a sort of equilibrium. I think in the Mediterranean coastal subsidence is mostly due to plate tectonics. I remember reading something about how myth of Atlantis might be due to a real life city that sunk as a result of an earthquake.
