from underwater archaeology because of land lost when the seas rose with the end of the last ice age and melting of the glaciers. As the article points out, underwater sites have been undisturbed by people for several millennia. Exploring them is like dropping into a time capsule.

True not just for the Americss, but elsewhere in the world.
