A recent paper published in the journal The Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences discusses the discovery of a submerged megastructure in the Baltic Sea. At a depth of 21 metres, this structure, named the Blinkerwall, stretches for almost one kilometre and is thought to have been built by Mesolithic hunter-gatherers. In this video I discuss the arguments for and against a natural origin for this ancient structure as outlined in the paper and the various hypotheses for its function.
