“A study led by the University of South Florida has uncovered new details about the colonization of Mallorca, Spain. An underwater bridge located inside Genovesa Cave was first discovered by researchers in 2000, according to Dr. Bogdan Onac, a geology professor at the University of South Florida and leader of the study, in an email to Fox News Digital. At the time, it was estimated that the bridge was 3,500 years old, primarily based on pottery that was found close to where the bridge was created, but the new study has dated the ancient limestone bridge back even further. … New research has found that the bridge was actually built nearly 6,000 years ago, indicating that human life in Mallorca dates back further than what was previously thought.” (09/05/24)
