Palaeolithic submerged landscapes

Palaeolithic submerged landscapes are ancient environments now underwater, formed during the last Ice Age when sea levels were lower. As glaciers melted, land that was once above water became submerged, revealing terrestrial formations, tools, and habitats used by early humans. Studying these sites helps us understand how early people adapted to changing environments and provides insights into human prehistory. Advanced underwater research allows scientists to locate and examine these submerged terrains, offering a unique window into early human life and migration patterns thousands of years ago.
