Archaeologists in Croatia announced their discovery of a 3,500-year-old sunken town in Adriatic Sea near Zadar, a southern coastal city. The ancient settlement and port was found in the sea between the islands of Ricula and Galesnjak in the Pasman Channel in 2014.  Led by Mato Ilkić, head of the archaeological research at Zadar University, the team unearthed various artifacts as old as 3,500 years. A small donation from a local business made the discovery of a spectacular sunken settlement rich in ancient relics.
