"Uncovering Europe's Oldest Submerged Stone Age Megastructure in the Baltic Sea"

A Stone Age megastructure consisting of a wall made of 1,670 stones submerged in the Baltic Sea has been discovered by researchers from Kiel University in Germany, indicating it was likely built more than 10,000 years ago by hunter-gatherer communities to guide reindeer for hunting. The methodical arrangement of the stones suggests it was not formed by nature, and the discovery challenges previous assumptions about the mobility and territorial behavior of Stone Age groups. This marks the first Stone Age hunting structure found in the Baltic Sea region, and the researchers continue to investigate the area for more archaeological finds that could provide insights into ancient hunter-gatherer communities.
