The Sea of Azov, which disappears from the earth and reappears due to geological movements and climate fluctuations, is called the “vibrating sea” in the scientific literature. Marine biologists state that these cyclical movements permanently changed the ancient population and coastlines in the region.
IT WAS A GIANT STRAIT JOINING THE BLACK SEA AND THE CASPIAN SEA
Marine biologist Yuri Kvach states that the Sea of Azov was part of the huge Pontic-Caspian basin that connected the Black Sea and the Caspian Sea in the past. It was noted that during the periods when the waters receded, modern beaches were replaced by vast steppes with a subtropical climate, and rivers emptied directly into the Black Sea.
Each return of water caused a mass catastrophe for the living fauna on earth, burying the bones of ancient creatures under thick layers of mud. When storms occur, all these fossil remains and sediments accumulated at the bottom are mixed back into the water column with the current.
IT MAY HAVE BEEN THE BASIS OF THE GREAT FLOOD LEGEND
Researchers hypothesize that a large-scale flood that occurred approximately 7,500 years ago and destroyed coastal civilizations permanently changed the boundaries of the Black Sea and the Sea of Azov. It is predicted that this mass rupture may constitute the historical origin of the Great Flood legend in global cultures.
The layers accumulated on the seafloor are considered a chronological record of past global planetary disasters. Scientists prove that this basin, which seems like a calm pool, is actually one of the most dynamic and variable water bodies on the planet.
