Buried deep beneath the sediment of the North Atlantic Ocean lies an ancient, lost landscape with furrows cut by rivers and peaks that once belonged to mountains. Geologists recently discovered this roughly 56-million-year-old landscape using data gathered for oil companies.
"It looks for all the world like a map of a bit of a country onshore," said Nicky White, the senior researcher. "It is like an ancient fossil landscape preserved 2 kilometers (1.2 miles) beneath the seabed."
So far, the data have revealed a landscape about 3,861 square miles (10,000 square km) west of the Orkney-Shetland Islands that stretched above sea level by almost as much as 0.6 miles (1 km). White and colleagues suspect it is part of a larger region that merged with what is now Scotland and may have extended toward Norway in a hot, prehuman world.

You can't really understand ancient history if you're looking at it in the modern topography. All ancient cultures have a flood story in their mythology. Also, ancient temples and cities have been found underwater in the Mediterranean, off the coast of Japan, in the Gulf of Mexico/Atlantic and so on.
This article states that it was during the "prehuman" world. Who knows about this particular region, but it seems from the ancient texts that the "flood" covered massive parts of the Earth all at once and seriously dealt a blow to a flourishing global civilization that is referred to as the Golden Age. After this catastrophe the fragmented remnants of separated beings survived to form the new civilizations of our history, each preserving and manifesting the same story in its own way. Immanuel Velikovsky is the person people need to research to learn more about his theories.
