  • Four years in the making, this two-part television series follows the world’s largest Maritime Archaeological Expedition in exploring how the Black Sea formed after the last ice age. Could it have been the origin of Noah’s flood?
    Led by charismatic chief scientist Jon Adams, the team send space aged remote survey vehicles 2 kilometres underwater to scan the seabed. In seeking geological clues, they quickly make remarkable finds: over 70 shipwrecks almost perfectly preserved in the chilly, oxygen-depleted water of this near landlocked sea. The films reveal extraordinary ships from the Ottoman, Byzantine, Roman and Greek civilisations.
    They include discoveries that are unique worldwide: the most perfectly preserved Roman vessel ever and the only preserved Greek warship known. The series witnesses the highs and lows of the handpicked international team of world-class scientists, on their remarkable journey into the past. Their adventures at sea include extreme dives to depths of 100m, tense recovery operations struggling to salvage amphora from Roman ships and costly equipment failures that threaten their entire operation.

    Tow summers, 1967 and 1968, I got to dive with a Marine Archaeologist, Franco Colsimo in Sicilian waters. I saw a lot of amphora but all in less than 150 feet of water. Your ships are really deep! I would hope that a book or two such as Robert Ballard did for ships of Guadalcanal, Midway, Bismark and Titanic are in the works. I for one would reserve a copy.

    I love the entire program but what hit home is in the beginning when one of the diver's says diving to him means peice. I think other divers know that feeling like lots of us think of deserts and mountains or a day working the farm. The only more rare that most don't is what a Astronaut feels looking back at planet earth and the moon. How incredible and precious life is.

    If it was a slow fill over thousands of years, you would have evidence of the lake shore beach the entire way to the modern shore not just 56km off the modern shore, unless there was a catastrophic flood from the Mediterranean, or global flood.

    • @lidiamartin5245
      @lidiamartin5245 Місяць тому +1

      For them to allow for this to have happened, they would have to entertain the idea that the story of the flood is at least partially true. And they would never do so.

    • @alka7145
      @alka7145 Місяць тому +1

      To get the evidence of the ancient lake beach, they needed to find a core (No 59?) that had metres and metres of beach evidence (mixture of finely ground shells almost as a sand as well as newer complete shells). If it is a slow, constant fill over thousands of years, you possibly can't find those thick layers of shell in the higher areas where the beach gradually but consistently moves inland.
