    The Baltic Sea anomaly is a 60-metre (200 ft) diameter circular rock formation on the floor of the northern Baltic Sea, at the center of the Bothnian Sea, discovered by Peter Lindberg, Dennis Åsberg and their Swedish "Ocean X" diving team in June 2011. The team reported that the formation rests on a pillar and includes a structure similar in appearance to a staircase, leading to a dark hole.

    Commentators have suggested that the structure could be a World War II anti-submarine device, a battleship gun turret, sediment dropped by a fishing trawler, or a flying saucer. Geologists have stated that it is most likely a natural geological formation.

    I just don't buy that a natural formation of sandstone would produce something so unique looking. Furthermore, there is nothing in the WW2 arsenal of any military that matches this object. I'm curious what people make of this.

    Saw that. I don't buy that it is a natural formation either. To me it looks like nothing man-made. Actually it (TO ME) most resembles a star-fighter from star wars. They also said there were ruts behind it that looked like skid marks. Very deep in the ocean floor.

    I lean towards an interesting geologic formation. Nothing more.

    Just another submerged civilization. This one from the Baltic Valley before it became a sea.
    Or maybe a Baltic shoreline community effected by a rise in sea level.
    Remember, between the years when the oceans drank Atlantis and the gleaming cities, and the years of the rise of the Sons of Aryas, there was an Age undreamed of, when shining kingdoms lay spread across the world like blue mantles beneath the stars - Nemedia, Ophir, Brythunia, Hyperborea, Zamora with its dark-haired women and towers of spider-haunted mystery, Zingara with its chivalry, Koth that bordered on the pastoral lands of Shem, Stygia with its shadow-guarded tombs, Hyrkania whose riders wore steel and silk and gold. But the proudest kingdom of the world was Aquilonia, reigning supreme in the dreaming west.

    Similar to what happened to the Persian Valley becoming the gulf, as well as the Mediterranean and Black valleys with fresh water lakes to salty seas. Mu too.

    Massive Earth crust displacement ala 2012 or do you really believe
    continental drift only works in fractions of an inch over a long, long time.
    And millions and millions of years is a long enough time for those fractions of an inch to add up?

    The best archeology is underwater.
    If an ancient made pottery from which he earned his sustenance in a society.
    And that society was "knocked back to the stone age" my some catastrophe.
    The pottery guy would not survive very well as a hunter gatherer, would he.
    A few might. Lose all the civilized ways and slowly work their way back up to civilization again. Not from a memory or blue print, step by step as happened before.
    Consider a hunter-gatherer group maxes out around 20. That's a big loss of population from civilization to hunter gatherer.

    Interesting post. By the way, is that a new avatar? Elegant rear view. Not Pippa Middleton is it?

    The dive team that went to it says it is rock. Not sure what else is going on as to its shape.

    Just like the Bimini Road or the formations, ? Pyramids ?, off Japan.
    If it doesn't fit accepted gospel, it's a natural formation.

    They said it was rock. Not sure you can get more natural than rock. There is another formation nearby made from the same rock but not as peculiar per them.

    It's probably a natural formation. Have you ever seen fairy towers or fairy chimneys? They don't look natural either, but they are.
