Archaeology
Doggerland – Europe’s Lost Land
 
Doggerland is a submerged land mass beneath what is now the North Sea, that once connected Britain to continental Europe.

Named after the Dogger Bank, which in turn was named after the 17th century Dutch fishing boats called doggers.

The existence of Doggerland was first suggested in a late 19th century book “A Story of the Stone Age” by H.G. Wells, set in a prehistoric region where one might have walked dryshod from Europe to Britain.
