Are there submarine drones that can go to the floor of bodies of water and excavate? I'd love to see a video on what cool gear modern archeologists use.

[@Ezullof]

There are remotely controlled submarines, but it wouldn't make a lot of sense to do proper excavations with them. You can scout and recover some items, but that works for proper archaeology with actual sites from sedentary cultures. Prehistoric sites tend to have a lot of "signs", like bits of charcoal, some bones, and few artifacts. Those you rather find here and there, and you still need to find the site. In other words, the tricky part isn't to conduct excavations, it's to find the site in the first place. A semi-autonomous submarine that would be able to detect prehistoric artifacts thanks to intensive training (similar to how submarines can recognize certain species of starfish) would probably be useful, but keep in mind that the sites are likely very disturbed anyway...

[@TazPessle]

I don't know how they did it, but the company I work for has done excavations labelled 'Doggerland'. I really need to ask what they've found. Only been there for a month or so.

By the time the Tsunami hit, Doggerland would have been a very flat and swampy wetland area like the rest of the Dutch/German coastal regions were until we reinforced and drained them.

Rivers would have helped the erosion process. The river Trent's course flowed down to Nottingham, then headed East to what became the "Wash" It cut out what is now known as the Belvoir Vale.

Re: Viking settlements, it depends. Viking activity in Britain was heavily motivated by a) large collections of valuables in British monasteries b) relatively weak defences of said valuables. Basically, easy money motivated people to go there, and some of them decided to stay permanently. Dogger island may be closer, but if anything, having Dogger island as a pit-stop along the way could possibly have led to *increased* Viking settlement of Britain, since it makes Britain more accessible. Besides, Vikings also left settlements along their eastern routes, so having other options for settlements clearly didn't dissuade them from going to England.

I live in Rhode Island, USA and a tsunami is one of my biggest fears.

[@joshcastaneda2482]

Oof, that aerial shot of a certain southern state... There's a hurricane heading there now. Best wishes to you there

Why did you stop posting episodes on your podcast? I love listening to those, but I’ve already listened to all of them…Please make more!

[@Andy_Babb]

Imagine if we could really adequately excavate all of these lost coasts and find so much history we’re just completely missing. Are there other species of humans that we’ll never find? Did humans start farming earlier or settling down sooner? I don’t even know if my questions make sense lol

Blake seems like he would be fun to hang out with.

Great episode. The sedimentation provides the extraordinary fish populations a resource base until recently.

[@Salsabro.]

Wow so interesting! I definitely wasn't forced to be here because of school! :D

[@MrRofl131]

Great video! I like the story about doggerland.

[@pennygleeson5029]

Only 8,000 years! Watching ' Eons ' for any length of time makes that seem like something we should remember 🤷🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️

[@thesmirkingbearstudio]

Blake makes such good comedic relief in these episodes

In the southern hemisphere research has indicated that New Zealand is part of a continent that is mostly underwater.

I like doggoland and the ancient tradition of "booping the snoot" 😂

[@1TakoyakiStore]

I actually just heard about Medieval Welsh stories about ancient kingdoms sinking after a tsunami. Weird thing is that these events occurred on the Wales side of the British Isles and not the Doggerland side.

Ah, an algorithm neighbour

Sea level rose everywhere. There is a sunken forest in Cardigan Bay; it's usually exposed by low spring tides. If you are ever over there, Borth is the best place from which to get out to the stumps.The story to which you refer relates to Cantre'r Gwaelod and is still taught as part of the children's folk tale canon. As you note, the first written account dates back to the 13th century but I suspect the verbal folk tale originated a lot earlier, with someone's grandparents who lived there.

The last mammoths on Siberia's Wrangle Island, about 100 miles long, only survived as dwarfs. The Doggerland mammoths, drowned en mass and still being dredged up, were not dwarfs: if the image at 6:22 is correct, it'd mean any migration routes at the time had come to include a big swim, but not SO big as to isolate the population.

[@Dobromir_Chodkowski]

Welcome back Blake!

[@punditgi]

Excellent video! 😊

[@falcolf]

Thank you, Eddie, for stepping into the tragically hollow space in our hearts left by Steve.

[@jemtebelle]

...Is Blake always this goofy cute? Does it usually get edited out? Or was he just in a mood on this day?

[@cadciel]

I had no idea this piece of land existed, thank you!

[@sterno5119]

After the Ice Age, Scandinavia lifted and still does. On the other hand, the southern North Sea area is sinking. And thus also the Netherlands and northern Germany.

[@melissarainchild]

Actually, this video gave me hope for the future...thanks for this channel...

[@BoyProdigyX]

Him giggling at 9:26 had me dying! 💀⚰ haha
