And these inundation maps he has given us are a very accurate representation, and those original maps, the ancient ones—how old are they? That's the 153 PIR Rees map, which was based on more than 20 older source maps. As he tells us in his own handwriting, we only have a fragment of the map; it's full of inaccuracies and problems. But I’m just, you know, what would convince me? So I used to do a lot of GIS for archaeological projects where I’d take historical maps and I’d try to line them up with actual terrain like satellite imagery and stuff like that? You should work on georectifying these maps to see how they line up in real space. Right now, what I see—I have to squint to see if it looks right or not. So I think working with something like a GIS expert to georectify this stuff and show how actually accurate it would be, where you could statistically measure that, would make it a lot more convincing in my mind. No, that’s a very good idea, Flint, thank you. Can we see images of the Bimini Road itself? I’ll show you a couple of slides if I can put this up.

During the episode, Graham Hancock discusses his book 'Underworld', focusing on the accuracy of inundation maps of the ocean floor. He highlights the collaborative efforts he made with a geologist to improve understanding of historical maps.
