Sunken city found near the coast of Cuba
A group of Canadian researchers, led by Paul Weinzweig and Pauline Zalitzki, discovered the ruins of the ancient city. Noteworthy, they found the Sunken city 700 m off the coast of Cuba thanks to an underwater robot. Next, the researchers studied these images obtained by a robot. In particular, they have found the remains of monumental structures, including four large pyramids. Besides, they discovered parts of monument, that in shape resembles a Sphinx, and several monoliths with inscriptions.
According to Pauline Zalitzki, the town belongs to the preclassical period in the history of civilizations of Central America and the Caribbean Islands. The ruins are at least 1.5-2 thousand years old, experts believe. However, they don’t rejected more ancient origin. Anyway, the researchers keep the discovery secret.
In fact, it was a team of Pauline Zalitzki, a marine engineer and her husband Paul Weinzweig, who reported about the discovery. They are owners of a Canadian company called Advanced Digital Communications. The company, in particular, works on an exploration and survey mission in conjunction with the Cuban government.
The team returned to the site for a second time with an underwater video robot. It filmed sonar images interpreted as various pyramids and circular structures made out of massive, smooth blocks of stone that resembled granite.
