The Mystery Of The Sunken Ruins Of Nan Madol (Videos And Photos)
(N.Morgan) On our exploration of the strange and beautiful, I found an under water ruin called Nan Mandol,Micronesian. The mystery that surrounds this ruin was intriguing enough for me to want to know more. Some believe that aliens built this wonderous city. Again, I marvel at the ingenuity of the ancestors and their never ending en devour to improve their way of life. One of the greatest archeological mysteries in the world, the lost city of Nan Madol. Build on an ancient corals reef and covering more than 11 square miles, this ancient city is made up hundreds of artificial islets, intersected by numerous man made canals.
Even more curious, many of the city’s larger islands are connected by submerged tunnels. The mysterious Nan Madol is built entirely out of gigantic magnetized basalt crystals, some weighing as much as fifty tons. In fact, the entire city contains an estimated 250 million tons of the prismatic basalt rock. Native mythology suggests that the stones were magically flown through the air and placed in the city.

According to the Weather Channel:
Off the shores of a tiny island in the middle of the vast Pacific Ocean are the ruins of an ancient civilization. The remains of Nan Madol are the only standing monument of a civilization built entirely over open water, on a coral reef.
The eerie abandoned stone structures are said to have inspired science-fiction writer H. P. Lovecraft to create a similar sunken city that was home to the monster Cthulhu, says Atlas Obscura.
In reality, Nan Madol was once home to the Saudeleur, who ruled the island of Pohnpei for more than a millennium, reported Smithsonian Magazine. The 92 artificial islands of Nan Madol are thought to have been constructed over the course of several centuries, and then eventually abandoned after 1,000 years of habitation.
Rufino Mauricio, Pohnpei’s only archaeologist, has dedicated his life to studying and preserving the ruins, which are built of 750,000 tons of black basaltic rock.
“We don’t know how they brought the columns here and we don’t know how they lifted them up to build the walls. Most Pohnpeians are content to believe they used magic to fly them,” Mauricio told Smithsonian.
He added that given the size of Pohnpei’s population at the time – fewer than 30,000 people – the construction of Nan Madol is an even larger and more remarkable effort than the Great Pyramids were for the ancient Egyptians.

I’ve read about this place. Totally going there. Great shots.
Unfortunately, this clip didn’t show the quarry. Once you see it, then you’ll know that these huge structures around the world, were not done by blood, sweat and tears. One way or another, these ancient civilizations had assistance directly or had access to the technology of a far more superior species. Those long basalt columns were removed from the side of a mountain and only a laser or tool/machine with a lot of power could of done this. Again! No rock hammers or copper chisels made these.
There are other possibilities, but those too most people don’t like to accept. It’s possible this planet keeps getting rebooted and these mega structures are from a time when people were more advanced than us. There still lies the question….where is the proof or tools? My guess….add a lot of water…a lot of salt….and you can erode just about anything anywhere….except for stone or rock….which is about all we have left to look at.
Those ancient stories about a Great Flood sure seem to hold water but then one must ask….why? So many different ancient texts speak of that flood. It would make sense if you wanted to destroy everything. Even that city of Atlantis…gold can’t erode so we’ll just sink it.
