Geologists have discovered an extraordinary stone structure submerged off the Baltic coast, believed to be erected by Stone Age hunter-gatherers around 11,000 years ago for reindeer hunting.
This remarkable finding, detailed in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, marks the first of its kind in the Baltic Sea region.
Researchers from Kiel University stumbled upon the site while investigating manganese crusts, leading to a collaborative effort involving various disciplines and advanced technology to unveil the ancient landscape.
Further exploration and dating methods promise to unveil more secrets, shedding light on humanity’s early ingenuity and connection with nature.
