Archaeologists are using 4D technology to research how Britain’s ‘Atlantis’ was colonised and inhabited for 6,000 years, before being engulfed by rising sea levels around 8,000 years ago.

The experts working on the multi-million pound project are hoping to unearth evidence of flint tool manufacture, animal DNA and plant pollen.

University of Bradford Professor Vince Gaffney said: ‘The only populated lands on earth that have not yet been explored in any depth are those which have been lost underneath the sea.'

The archaeologist added that the project gives a whole new way of approaching the massive areas of land that were populated by humans but which now lie beneath the sea.

Doggerland was discovered three years ago by divers working with science teams from the University of St Andrews.

It is believed to have had a population of tens of thousands of people and was possibly the heartland of Europe.

Its called Frisi Atlanti, then Frisi Atlanti became celts/saks/norman/germanic etc those who come from the north sea are the true atlanteans .
