Was it home of the advanced prehistoric civilization known as Atlantis? A new mysterious giant underwater pyramid was discovered between the islands of Terceira and São Miguel in the Azores Islands.
Sailor Diocleciano Smith has discovered, based on bathymetry readings, a 60 meters high and 8000 meters wide underwater pyramid near the Bank De João de Castro, between the islands of Terceira and São Miguel.
