“Venezia” was my idea of what Atlantis could have been like since I can remember. Atlantis was built on small islands. Venice is built on more than 100 small islands in a lagoon in the Adriatic sea. the city’s ground level has been gradually sinking, by one millimeter a year, owing to the soft and shifting geological terrain on which its foundations are built. That was made worse over decades by local industries around Venice pumping groundwater from the acquifer under the lagoon until they were “forbidden to do so in the 1970s” due to climate change . As the legend of Atlantis goes she was once raised, before the ocean claimed her . #venice #veniceitaly #veniceflood #atlantis #conspiracytheory (at Venice, Italy) https://www.instagram.com/p/B4-ukjFg7bz/?igshid=151v3yem6n85t
