Heracleion, Lost Egyptian City Revealed After 1,200 Years Under Sea.

That last shot of the stone stela coming out of the water. Wow. I was expecting it to be covered with sediments and other sea life stuff, but no! It’s pristine looking!

6. Key - In French folklore, the sunken city of Ys lies just off the coast of Brittany. The city was protected from the sea by a series of dikes, with a gate that could be opened at low tide to allow boats into the city. The single key for the gate was kept by the king. One night, the princess stoles the key while trying to sneak her lover into the city. In the process, she accidentally caused the city to flood and sink into the sea. The king was the only survivor, thanks to a saint’s intervention. There are rumors that the city will rise again someday and that the first person to see it, and hear the church bells ring, will be the ruler of the risen city.
