I love it when discoveries appear to overturn ‘facts’, as with this freshly discovered underwater city, reported by BBC News | SOUTH ASIA | Lost city ‘could rewrite history’:

Marine scientists say archaeological remains discovered 36 metres (120 feet) underwater in the Gulf of Cambay off the western coast of India could be over 9,000 years old.

The vast city – which is five miles long and two miles wide – is believed to predate the oldest known remains in the subcontinent by more than 5,000 years.
