Europe's severe drought is unearthing ancient artifacts from 'Spanish Stonehenge' to Emperor Nero's bridge
Receding water levels due to drought in Europe are unearthing old sites and artifacts.
In August, 47% of Europe was in drought warning conditions, according to the Global Drought Observatory.
Droughts are becoming more frequent and severe in many parts of the world, according to climate reports.
An intense ongoing drought is shrinking, lakes, streams, and reservoirs across Europe. One unexpected side effect: It's revealing long-submerged traces of the past.
Since early 2022, Europe has experienced an extended period of unusually high temperatures and severe lack of rainfall. By August, 47% of the continent was in drought warning conditions, which are marked by a lack of soil moisture and negative effects on vegetation, according to the Global Drought Observatory. Andrea Toreti, a senior researcher at the European Commission's Joint Research Center, told Sky News in August that the drought could be Europe's worst in 500 years.
A growing body of research, including the latest Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change report, suggests droughts like the one sweeping Europe are becoming more intense as climate change pushes temperatures to new extremes.
From megalithic monuments to ancient bridges, sites and artifacts continue to be unearthed by the 2022 drought in Europe.
A prehistoric 'Spanish Stonehenge' reemerges in a reservoir in Spain
In late July, receding water levels in Spain's Valdecanas reservoir dropped to 28% percent of its capacity, revealing the Dolmen of Guadalperal, dubbed "Spanish Stonehenge," Reuters reported.
"It's a surprise, it's a rare opportunity to be able to access it," Enrique Cedillo, an archaeologist from Madrid's Complutense University, told Reuters. Cedillo wants to study the resurfaced monument before it is once again underwater.
The Dolmen of Guadalperal is made of dozens of megalithic stones is believed to date to 5000 BC. It was discovered by a German archaeologist in 1926 and is normally underwater thanks to the creation of the reservoir in 1963. Since then, it has only become fully visible four times.
