Yonaguni Monument (Japan's Atlantis)

In 1986, divers discovered strange stone formations near the island of Yonaguni located in Japan. Yonaguni was a popular diving location during winter as it is home to a huge population of hammerhead sharks. However, it wasn’t sharks that the piqued the interest of these divers that day, but rather these seemingly man-made structures along with the bizarre artifacts found. The features of the formation mainly composed of mudstone and sandstone includes a 7m tall stone column, a low platform that is star – shaped, a L shaped rock, two pillars that are closely placed which rise to almost 2.4 meters of the surface and a triangular pool with two holes on its edges. What exactly is the origin to these strange formations?

I like this. I like how you talk about both sides and keep it short and to the point.

I mean it's no secret that the world loves to move, rise and sink. I wouldn't be surprised if it was just a farm or small house. Or even the 3rd one
