Underwater
Ruins of

Monument is
a massive
underwater
rock
formation off
the coast of
Yonaguni in
Japan.

3. In 1986,a diver near the
island of Yonaguni came
across some strange
structures about 25 meters
below sea level.

4. Tools marks and carvings have been
discovered upon the stones wich indicate
that they were constructed rather than
being natural stone structures.

5. Geological evidence shows that it was
submerged during the meltdown of the last ice
age wich means it was built over 14,000 years
ago.

6. Some scientists have theorized that perhaps
these underwater structures are part of an
ancient civilization that lived on the planet
millenia ago.

earthquake hit the
area around the
underwater
structures whether
were damaged or
not, is not clear.
