The submergence of the lost city of Dwarka (a.k.a. Dvaraka) is a well-known legend from India, stemming from the Mahabharata. Like Atlantis, the story says that Dwarka sank beneath the sea at some point in the ancient past. Some people think this is a historical event that occurred in the early Vedic period. Others say it happened at the end of the ice age. Some think it never happened at all. In this video, Dr. Miano investigates the claims made by the Ancient Astronaut Archive channel and by Graham Hancock, and looks into the archaeological excavations that have been done in Gujarat to see if there is any truth behind the tale.
