Epipaleolithic remains found offshore of England


The finding, 500 meters offshore of Tynemouth, has recieved the unfortunate name of "Geordie Atlantis" (because it's submerged, I guess) but it is interesting anyhow, as they are the first Epipaleolithic remains found in that area. It is also interesting because, while we know that a lot of modern seabed was exposed and possibly inhabited in Paleolithic and Epipaleolithic times, findings like this one are extremely rare.
