How a 1.000.000 Sq Mile Sea Simply Vanished

How did a sea the size of a million square miles simply vanish? Six million years ago, the Mediterranean Sea — one of the most iconic bodies of water on Earth — almost completely dried up. What replaced it was not just a shrinking shoreline, but a three-mile-deep salt desert under crushing pressure and extreme heat. This event, known as the Messinian Salinity Crisis, transformed the geography of Europe and North Africa. Massive tectonic shifts closed the connection to the Atlantic Ocean. Evaporation took over. The sea disappeared. What followed was the largest flood in Earth’s history — the Zanclean Flood — which refilled the basin in less than two years. #MessinianSalinityCrisis #MediterraneanSea #Geology #EarthHistory #AncientEarth #ZancleanFlood #MegaFlood #ClimateHistory #PlateTectonics #ScienceDocumentary End of the Era by Kevin MacLeod is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 licence. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/...
