The Magic Mountain of Bugarach

  • Summary

  • A once fertile landmass now submerged beneath the Persian Gulf may have been home to some of the earliest human populations outside Africa. In recent years, archaeologists have turned up evidence of a wave of human settlements along the shores of the Gulf dating to about 7,500 years ago, however the most startling evidence comes from the area in and around this "Persian Gulf Oasis" which may have been host to humans for over 100,000 years before it was swallowed up by the Indian Ocean around 8,000 years ago.
