Bimini road - the way to the lost Atlantis? (8 photos + 1 video)
The undersea road is a paradox. But she exists near the Bahama Island of Bimini and is located at a depth of 6 meters under water.
Stone tiles forming this path at a glance seem natural. But if you look closely, they are all fairly regular rectangular shape. As if specially crafted.
Bimini Island
The line ends with a fairly clear hook, which is not especially similar to the design of nature. And some people started calling underwater road to the lost Atlantis.
For the first time on the Bimini road in 1968, an underwater archaeologist Joseph Valentine. Since then, representatives of various areas repeatedly investigated both the stones themselves and the surroundings. And diligence were crowned with success: two more similar objects were found nearby.
Humans or gods?
Examination of the sample showed that the approximate age plates is 11 thousand years. On one slab, scientists found signs artificial processing. The stone was clearly touched by tools. Chemical analysis showed that the composition is different from the usual for this area breeds. That is, with a high degree of probability, the plates were made and processed somewhere else, and transported here specifically for construction of this road.
Opponents of the man-made theory believe that the object is natural. And these are just intricately laid out underwater reefs and rocks, fixed by the tides. A version was also put forward about fragments of shells, compressed with sand, and the assumption that the stones are ballast, thrown from ships.
Dig to the base of the slabs for a deeper research is not possible. Strong whirlpools interfere and currents. Yes, and the local inhabitants - sharks and moray eels are not at all happy outside interference in everyday life.
After the death of several members of various expeditions at the rest were less ardent. But then there was an assumption - maybe it is higher powers hinder the exploration of the road to Atlantis?
Mysticism and prophecy
Interest in the road is fueled by the predictions of the famous mystic Edgar Cayce, who predicted it 30 years before its discovery existence, linking it with the ancient civilization of Atlantis:
Part of the temples can still be found under the silt of centuries and sea water near Bimini. Expect it in 1968-1969 - not so far away.
And also sailors and divers talk about the oddities that this area beyond measure. American divers in 1979 saw here a giant luminous triangle that slipped out of the water and disappeared into heaven. French expedition observed luminous bands unknown origin.
And an American diver in 2000 generally told a marvelous story about a three-meter-high man who swiftly walked along road towards it. The diver did not wait for the meeting and hurried to the waiting yacht.
It is clear that scientific evidence for these and other horror stories No. A relatively recent discovery added fuel to the fire. under the layer plates, two others were found. Extract the stones does not appear possible. But on the other hand, this allowed us to assume that the road was actually not a road, but the top of a wall.
Enthusiasts continue to struggle to explore the Bimini road. Hoping to unravel the mystery of the strange object. And - who knows - maybe find a way to the lost Atlantis.
