Egypt in Vibracore Slices

In 2001, Aqua Survey, Inc. embarked on its first true archaeological mission beneath the waters of Egypt—extracting sediment cores from the lost city of Heraklion and the ruins of Cleopatra’s submerged palace. What seemed like routine vibracoring quickly became something far more significant: each layer of sediment held clues to a centuries-old mystery. Guided by strict preservation rules and a sense of purpose, the team wasn’t just collecting samples—they were uncovering the story of how an ancient city vanished beneath the sea, one razor-thin slice at a time.
