Planet X: PRIOR Pole Shifts, 2 BACK
2 BACK, 7,200 Years Ago
Physical Evidence
1. An international team of geologists and
oceanographers reconstructed the history of a
catastrophic flood from data gathered by a Russian
research ship in 1993. Seismic soundings and
sediment cores revealed traces of the sea's former
shorelines, showing an abrupt 500 foot rise in water levels.
Radiocarbon dating of the transition from fresh water to
marine organisms in the cores put the time of the event
at about 7,700 years ago.

2. The first event probably occurred concomitantly with
the rise of Holocene sea-level near modern levels around
7000 BP. ... Recent work indicates that the southeast
coast of Australia may not be the only coast to be
affected by catastrophic tsunami. The geomorphic
signatures of such events have been found on Lord
Howe Island in the mid-Tasman Sea, along the north
Queensland coast and along the northwest coast of
Western Australia. At the latter location, there is good
evidence that a recent wave swept more than 30 km
inland, in the process topping 60 m high hills more
than 2 km from the coast. Finally bedrock sculpturing
features have been identified on the islands of Hawaii
and along the east coast of Scotland. The latter
location is within the zone affected by the tsunami
generated by a large submarine landslide near
Storegga, Norway also 7,000 years ago.

3. When the European glaciers melted, about 7,000 years ago,
the Mediterranean Sea overflowed into what was then a
smaller freshwater lake to create the Black Sea. Last year
Ballard found indications of an ancient coastline miles
out from the current Black Sea coast. The new discovery
provides evidence that people once lived in that now
inundated region. Ballard, a National Geographic Society
explorer in residence, said he studied shells found along
the ancient coastline and found two types. One group is
an extinct type of freshwater shell, while the second
is from saltwater shellfish.
