Orkney Riddler<p>I'm going to keep on harping on about land in the middle of the North Sea until I'm hoarse! </p><p>It's difficult to convince people of the idea partly because it seems so unlikely.&nbsp; The level of the seabed east of Shetland is over 100 metres below present sea level. The idea that a depth of material of that height could have been washed away in the recent past is too incredible to be believed. <br>There is lots evidence to support this notion , but it's a bit like being aware of something that's invisible only by the touch of the breeze on your skin as it passes. It requires the willingness to consider the possibility. <br>The first piece of evidence is actually archaeological.&nbsp; A flint artefact was discovered in a borehole in the floor of the North Sea half way between Shetland and Norway.&nbsp; It was identified, by Caroline Wickham-Jones , as a piece of prehistoric struck flint. How an article created by a prehistoric human could have been deposited so far from land is a bit of a head- scratcher. </p><p>The second piece of evidence referrs to a meltwater surge that drained off from glaciers on Norway and Sweden at 12,000BP. Water and ice fell into the Skaggerak and flowed down a wide trench beside the coast of Norway,&nbsp; called the Norwegian Channel.&nbsp; <br>As sea level in the area was 60 metres below our sea level at 12,000BP,&nbsp; and the height of the surge , as demonstrated on the sea level graphs on the sketch below , was 10 metres, the surge was supported at 50 metres below current sea level.<br>This 50 metres surge was supported along most of the length of the Norwegian Channel,&nbsp; dissipating in the Atlantic Ocean.<br>As there was deep water against the English and Scottish coasts the west bank of the Norwegian Channel may have been a narrow strip of land running north from Doggerland to the Atlantic coast,&nbsp; where the flint artefact was found. </p><p>This looks suspiciously as if prehistoric people may have been able to walk on land in the northern North Sea,&nbsp; and that the land they walked on was higher than we thought. </p><p>What do you think? </p><p>Detailed, if longwinded, analysis is in the blog:- </p><p><a href="http://orkneyriddler.blogspot.com/2025/04/the-orkney-riddle.html" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">http://</span><span class="ellipsis">orkneyriddler.blogspot.com/202</span><span class="invisible">5/04/the-orkney-riddle.html</span></a> </p><p><a href="https://c.im/tags/archaeology" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>archaeology</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/Orkney" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Orkney</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/prehistory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>prehistory</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/Neolithic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Neolithic</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/Norway" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Norway</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/Shetland" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Shetland</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/flint" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>flint</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/artefact" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>artefact</span></a></p>
