📱 eBook en inglés ZANCLEAN DELUGE

Approximately five million years ago, the Mediterranean Sea did not exist. Instead, the area was a vast, scorching salt desert, completely isolated from the worlds oceans due to tectonic shifts that had sealed off the Strait of Gibraltar. This extreme environment persisted for hundreds of thousands of years, creating a bizarre and alien landscape.
Then, in one of the most violent geological events in Earths history, the Atlantic Ocean breached the land bridge. The resulting megaflood, known as the Zanclean flood, poured water into the basin at a rate thousands of times greater than the Amazon River. The roaring cascade carved deep canyons and raised the sea level by over ten meters per day, filling the entire Mediterranean basin in a matter of months.
This book takes readers on a journey deep into our planets turbulent prehistoric past, guided by the latest geological and oceanographic evidence. It explains how scientists uncovered the massive layer of salt buried beneath the seabed, confirming the reality of this ancient cataclysm.
Discover how a single, catastrophic flood forever altered the climate, geography, and evolutionary trajectory of Europe and Africa. Prepare to see the familiar Mediterranean landscape through a completely new and awe-inspiring lens.
