The British Museum have pulled out all the stops with their latest exhibition. The lost cities of Thonis-Heracleion and Canapus have long been hidden at the bottom of the Mediterranean but over the past years, archeologists have been excavating and the British Museum is now exhibiting their findings. Fascinating, never before seen stuff!
