PYRAMIDS DISCOVERED UNDER WATER OFF COAST OF CUBA, MIGHT BE ATLANTIS


JUNE 4, 2020

Sunken City in Cuba



The remains of what may be a 6000-year-old city immersed in deep waters off the west coast of Cuba was discovered by a team of

Offshore engineer Paulina Zelitsky and her husband, Paul Weinzweig and her son Ernesto Tapanes used sophisticated sonar and video videotape devices to find “some kind of megaliths you ‘d find on Stonehenge or Easter Island,” Weinzweig said in an interview.

“Some structures within the complex may be as long as 400 meters wide and as high as 40 meters,” he said. “Some are sitting on top of each other. They show very distinct shapes and symmetrical designs of a non-natural kind. We’ve shown them to scientists in Cuba, the U.S., and elsewhere, and nobody has suggested they are natural.”

Moreover, an anthropologist affiliated with the Cuban Academy of Sciences has said that still photos were taken from the videotape clearly show “symbols and inscriptions,” Mr. Weinzweig said. It is not yet known in what language the inscriptions are written.

The sonar images, he added, bear a remarkable resemblance to the pyramidal design of Mayan and Aztec temples in Mexico.

Mr. Weinzweig said it is too early to draw firm conclusions from the evidence collected so far. The research team plans another foray to the site — off the Guanahacabibes Peninsula on Cuba’s western tip. It hopes to return again, this time with the first deep-water mobile excavator, equipped with functions needed for on-site archeological evaluation, including the ability to blow the sand off the stone.

I wish this were true but it is very likely not. See https://badarchaeology.wordpress.com/2012/10/28/an-underwater-city-west-of-cuba/.

Apparently this is from a YouTube video:



That is from 7 years ago and not corroborated. Still no further details on this ... no high-res images? Not sure archaeology-world.com is a reputable source, sorry.
