Did you know about any of these underwater cities? Let us know in the comments.

[felixgarcia]

in my opinion These history videos are the best. I wish they’d do more

[rhythmkhandelwal]

Thanks for including dwarka, didn't expected it from you

Imagine when someone finds Manila, Mexico City and New Orleans under water in 2000 years. Imagine how many cities from 5000 years ago are already under water in the Philippines.

What about dwaraka and Ram sethu ( Adams bridge) from india ??

[kensredemption]

Obviously the Yonaguni Monument is an Isu Temple which is why the next Assassin’s Creed NEEDS to be set in Japan. 😂

Man searches for the life and other stuff outside the earth but there could be much more still buried, hidden and undiscovered on earth yet...

[bennymora]

Be honest, we all wanted Atlantis to be on the list!🤪

Interesting video, though the title is a bit misleading. None of these city ruins have been found in the actual deep sea. If they had, we wouldn't be seeing people diving there. So top 10 Ancient Sunken Cities Discovered in the Sea would be more accurate.

7:07 i cant imagine how amazing it was at Port Royal in the 16th to mid 17th century.

In the future our city will be next underwater

*guy looking up wistfully*
Is this an Atlantis?

[nikkiej.]

The only ancient city I heard of was Thonis. The only other ones I've heard of were ones we already know a lot about like Atlantis and Pompeii.

Me: *Digging under water*

Shark: Sup?

[Luckyrajsinh_p]

Oh wow Dwarka got the attention in world, I'm from near city from dwarka It was built and ruled by Lord Krishna(Hindu god).

[Madmij]

Port Royal wasn't really a pirate haven it was mostly the centre for British power in the Caribbean

[patrickkelley]

My submechanophobia makes this uncomfortable, but my love of history and lost civilizations pushes me to watch.

[memyselfandi]

I don't understand why they keep on saying that it was earth tremors that sunk these cities...the glaciers have been melting for a long time, since the last ice age in fact...

[Bayard]

Helike maybe should have deserved a mention, it was a huge tourist attraction in antiquity, it was gradually covered by sediments so it's not submerged anymore but still.

[CiinaBunnii]

That last one is mad silly. They found “a number of tools” at the site and they’re still questioning whether it was man made? 😂😂
