once dry landmass stretching from Scotland to Denmark was
discovered after 15 years of research, and it’s been big news in
the UK press, where it is being called “Britain’s Atlantis”.
Here’s a map of the land believed to have once made up
Doggerland: The data was found using seismic scans and
geophysical modeling courtesy of oil and gas companies.
Researchers were also able to use evidence from fossils obtained
through dives to paint a picture of a land marked by hills and
valleys, lakes and swamps, and rivers dividing a long and
extensive coastline.
