L'Atlantide
svedese: ritrovata antica civiltà nel Mar Baltico
quella che è stata
ribattezzata "Svezia Atlantis"
Un'antica
civiltà è stata trovata in profondità sotto il Mar Baltico e gli archeologi
ritengono risalga all'età della pietra . Si ipotizza che sia scomparsa alla
stessa stregua della piu' nota citta' di Atlantide. Secondo lo tradizione
egizio- indiana, confermata anche da quella del Galles, la scomparsa dell'Atlantide
sarebbe avvenuta in seguito a quattro catastrofi, scatenate probabilmente
dall'azione vulcanica. Il primo cataclisma avvenne circa 800.000 anni fa e fu
determinato dal rovesciamento dei poli.Questo avrebbe cominciato ad attaccare
l'ossatura terrosa dell'Atlantide che successivamente sarebbe stata spazzata
via insieme a tutte le terre emergenti dell'Oceano dalle masse d'acqua
provenienti dal nord.Il secondo Cataclisma probabilmente di origine vulcanica,
sarebbe avvenuto circa 200000 anni fa, e per causa sua l'Atlantide restò
ridotta e diminuita.
Il terzo
cataclisma causato dall’azione vulcanica
Avvenne
80.000anni fa e dette alla terra un aspetto del tutto differente, riducendo
l'Atlantide a due isole Routo e Daitya. Infine il quarto cataclisma ebbe luogo
nell'anno 9564 a.C. quando Atlantide non esisteva che allo stato d'isola:
l'isola di Poseidone. Essa fu inghiottita e disparve così dalla terra.In questo
ritrovamento si riferisce la presenza di strumenti, bovini, corde e altri
manufatti . Uno dei quali era un arpione creato dall'estinto Auroch, che e' un
antenato del tipo di grandi bovini selvatici che abitavano l'Europa, l'Asia e
il nord Africa, sono sopravvissuti in Europa fino agli ultimi uri registrati
morti nellaforesta, . dei quali l'ultimo esemplare deceduto nel 1627 in
Polonia.Quante di queste civita" antiche esistevano? quante ne verranno
alla luce? Atlantide rimarra' il solo mito o scopriremo verita' fino ad ora
ignote?
Swedish divers unearth a 'Stone Age Atlantis':
11,000-year-old ancient settlement discovered under the Baltic Sea
Divers found a harpoon, tools, horns and the
bones of ancient cattle
The bones belonged to the animal auroch last
seen in the early 1600s
Archaeologists believe these relics date back
to the Stone Age
It is said to be the oldest settlement in the
area - dubbed Sweden’s 'Atlantis'
Divers
in Sweden have discovered a rare collection of Stone Age artefacts buried deep
beneath the Baltic Sea.
Archaeologists
believe the relics were left by Swedish nomads 11,000 years ago and the
discovery may be evidence of one of the oldest settlements ever found in the
Nordic region.
Some of
the relics are so well preserved, reports have dubbed the find 'Sweden’s
Atlantis' and suggested the settlement may have been swallowed whole by the sea
in the same way as the mythical island in the Atlantic Ocean.
The
artefacts were discovered by Professor Bjorn Nilsson from Soderton University,
and a team from Lunds University, during an archaeological dive at Hano, off
the coast of Skane County in Sweden.
Buried
16 metres below the surface, Nilsson uncovered wood, flint tools, animal horns
and ropes.
Among
the most notable items found include a harpoon carving made from an animal
bone, and the bones of an ancient animal called aurochs.
Aurochs
are ancestors of modern-day cattle and lived through Europe before becoming
extinct in the early 1600s. The last reported auroch died in Poland in 1627.
This
find is significant because it suggests a date for when these items would have
been used.
Many of
the artefacts have been preserved because the diving location is rich in a
sediment called gyttja.
Black,
gel-like Gyttja is formed when peat begins to decay. As the peat is buried, the
amount of oxygen drops and it is thought this lack of oxygen prevented the
organic artefacts from being lost.
Nilsson
told The Local: ‘Around 11,000 years ago there was a build-up in the area - a
lagoon of sorts - and all the tree and bone pieces are preserved in it.
'If the
settlement was on dry land we would only have the stone-based things, nothing
organic.’
The dive
was part of a three-year excavation partially funded by the Swedish National
Heritage Board.
Archaeologists
are continuing the dig, and are now particularly interested to see whether
there is also an ancient burial site in the region.
This
would add weight to the claims it was once a settlement location that has since
been lost at sea.
If the
region was a settlement, it would have similarities with Atlantis - the
mythical island first referred to by Greek philosopher Plato.
Atlantis
was said to have been a large island, or even a continent, in the Atlantic
Ocean that sank and vanished almost overnight.
However,
this underwater civilisation has never been found, and many claim Plato either
made it up, or the location was not in the Atlantic Ocean.
Other
claims suggest the island may have been near modern-day Santorini, off the
coast of Greece.
Nilsson
is quick to dismiss the claims the settlement is ‘Sweden’s Atlantis’, however,
stressing that the Swedes at the time would have been nomadic.
This
means that the settlement may have only been temporary, and that a village
never permanently existed on the site - unlike the mythical Atlantis.
