Romeins Strand

Als je hier 5,4 miljoen jaar geleden stond, zou je geen strand en kust gezien hebben, maar een bassin van 2,7 kilometer diep. De Mediterrane Zee was nergens te zien, alleen in de diepste delen onder 2700 meter onder het huidige zeeniveau. Je zou dus kijken naar een enorm bassin, glinsterende met zoutkristallen en gevlekt met meren van hypersalien water. Tektonische bewegingen hadden toen de Straat van Gibraltar afgesloten. Je zou toen het hoogtepunt van de Messiniaanse crisis hebben gezien. De afgesneden Middellandse Zee verdampte in ongeveer 1000 jaar in het hete en droge klimaat. De overblijfselen van dit gebeuren kan je nog steeds zien vandaag op de bodem van de Middellandse Zee. Je vindt er nog een dikke korst van zout en gips.
