Mysterious abandoned Greek city dating back 2,500 years found hidden under a hill

THE LOST CIVILISATION Mysterious abandoned Greek city dating back 2,500 years found hidden under a hill after its walls are spotted protruding through the earth *** A MYSTERIOUS ancient city which dates back to 500BC has been found by British archaeologists buried beneath a hill – but they cannot understand how it has lain undiscovered for so long. Experts from Bournemouth University have been exploring the remains of the secret Greek city in Vlochos, around 190 miles north of Athens, believed to date back 2,500 years. Towers, walls and city gates have been discovered on the hill’s summit and slopes, but very little is visible on the ground below – leading experts to believe the city is buried beneath. Researchers from the Dorset university joined forces with the University of Gothenburg, Sweden, and local experts to investigate the incredible discovery using groundbreaking technology such as radar and drones. Bournemouth archaeology lecturer Dr Derek Pitman said the equipment allowed the team to view the site like never before, producing 3D maps of the fortifications and a detailed plan of the underground features. | The Sun
