The Submerged City of Pavlopetri
Pavlopetri is the oldest submerged city in the world; a visit by BBC officials cemented the submerged city’s status. The officials even brought along laser scanners to reproduce models of the many artifacts discovered in the city.
In 1904, the first report on the submerged city was filed when it was reported as an ancient city that had become concealed between the Elafonisos Island and Punta beach; the report was made by a geologist named Fakion Negri. Dr. Nicholas Flemming led the expedition that found the submerged city a couple of decades later.
