Mega-flood created mediterrean sea about 5.3 million years ago

About 5.6 million tears ago,the mediterean sea almost disappeared through evaporation,when it become disconnected to the atlantic,due to uplift of the straits of gibraltar and a drop in sea levels around that time.

Tectonic activity around 5.3 millions years ago lowered the  gibraltar strait.

Researchers have concluded that the flood started with a trickle of water  over a rock barrier over thousands of years,which deepened the channel until the rock barrier failed,filling the mediterrean basin in less than two years.

This water create a 200 kilometre long gorge which is 250 metres deep.

First off I wοulԁ like to ѕay fаntаѕtic
blοg! I haԁ а quick question in which
Ӏ'd like to ask if you do not mind. I was interested to find out how you center yourself and clear your head before writing. I have had a hard time clearing my mind in getting my thoughts out. I do enjoy writing however it just seems like the first 10 to 15 minutes are generally wasted simply just trying to figure out how to begin. Any ideas or hints? Kudos!
