The Lost Continent That VANISHED 10,000 Years Ago

Hidden beneath the ocean is an 8th continent — but it wasn't always that way. Once part of a much larger ancient landmass, almost all of it now lies beneath the Pacific, leaving behind mountains, valleys and landscapes swallowed by the sea. So what happened to this lost continent, when did it disappear beneath the waves, and what might still be hidden down there? In this documentary, we explore the remarkable story of Zealandia, the largely submerged continent surrounding New Zealand, and the geological forces that transformed it over millions of years. Along the way, we examine underwater exploration, ancient New Zealand, Pacific archaeology, submerged landscapes, lost landmasses and the discoveries that are allowing researchers to reconstruct a continent that remained almost entirely hidden beneath the ocean. ►Become a channel member today: / youtube.com/@TheUnchartedMysteries/join - Attributions for images used in video: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Cfc5UFJKJcqvau79vDmGA7MHxVHP6rKbqkmbDqExh9Y DISCLAIMER: The pictures, audio, and video used in the videos on this channel are a mix of paid stock, by attribution, royalty-free, public domain, or otherwise fall under the guidelines of fair use.
