Atlantis (the lost city of) is believed by some to be submerged under-sea awaiting discovery by future archeologists/explorers.
There are several candidate sites for the loaction of this ancient city,they are somewhere of the coast of the Bahamas,off the coast of Crete & somewhere in the shallower part of the South China Sea.However the problem is that all these are under-sea locations up to 200 Metres deep.Underwater archeology is very difficult even in very shallow water.Is there some sort of underwater geo-physical device that could detect stone structurs buried under-say100-200feet of ash/silt/mud?
Could such a device still funcion at depths approaching 200Metres?
Reward: A fabled/mythical city & it's priceless artifacts uncovered.
