<p>In 1931, Pilgrim Lockwood's discovery of an antler harpoon in the North Sea unveiled the existence of a submerged land,
Doggerland, connecting Britain to Europe. This region, traversed by Neanderthals during the ice ages, transformed from frigid tundra to a lush environment as temperatures rose.</p>
<p>Around 8000 years ago, Doggerland faced a catastrophic event, accelerated by both natural and geological factors. While rising sea levels played a role, the critical turning point was the
Storegga Event, an undersea landslide off the Norwegian coast that triggered a massive megatsunami around 8000 years ago.</p>
