Prehistotic landscape found below North Sea


Glimpse of ancient civilization

Here's one that is already being cited by the global warming apologists.

Archaeologists are uncovering a huge prehistoric "lost country" hidden below the North Sea.

This lost landscape, where hunter-gatherer communities once lived, was swallowed by rising water levels at the end of the last ice age.

University of Birmingham researchers are heralding "stunning" findings as they map the "best-preserved prehistoric landscape in Europe".

This large plain disappeared below the water more than 8,000 years ago.

The Birmingham researchers have been using oil exploration technology to build a map of the once-inhabited area that now lies below the North Sea - stretching from the east coast of Britain up to the Shetland Islands and across to Scandinavia.

Imagine that. Eight thousand years ago. Long before SUVs, inaccurate computer projections, Hollywood activists, and propaganda films.

A natural cycle that occurred despite human action. That means it is not unusual and not human caused. That knocks at least two props out from the global warming argument, and possibly four.

Hat tip Wren's Nest.
