Reseña del libro "Beneath the Waves (en Inglés)"

Beneath the waves lie the streets of cities that people once walked.Off the coast of Egypt, divers have raised temples, colossal statues and the harbour of Thonis-Heracleion - a port Herodotus wrote about, and that nobody could find for sixteen hundred years. In a bay in southern Greece, the streets and house plots of Pavlopetri are still visible in four metres of clear water, laid out five thousand years ago. In Jamaica, a third of Port Royal slid into the harbour in two minutes on a June morning in 1692, and much of it is still down there.Beneath the Waves is a journey to more than twenty drowned cities, in two parts.Part One visits the ones that have been found, mapped and dived: Thonis-Heracleion and Canopus, Cleopatra's royal quarter in Alexandria, Pavlopetri, the Roman pleasure city of Baiae, Port Royal, China's Lion City, the 9,000-year-old village of Atlit Yam, Rungholt, Dunwich, Kekova and Villa Epecu?n.Part Two follows the ones still being searched for, and weighs the evidence honestly: Atlantis, the Yonaguni monument, Dwarka and the Gulf of Cambay, the Black Sea flood, Doggerland, Helike, Kumari Kandam, and the drowned cities of European legend.Inside: - 23 chapters, each marked DISCOVERED or STILL BEING SEARCHED, so you always know where the evidence stands- 40 original maps and diagrams, drawn for this book- What is proved, what is disputed, and who disagrees - no invented certainty- A practical guide to visiting or diving each site- Full references and sources for every chapterSome of these places were myths until someone found them. Others are myths still. This book shows you the difference.
