Where Troy Once Stood

Could it be that an impact created the Baltic sea, as follows?

That is some research you could do yourself. The Baltic seems to be a very ancient river bed of an Amazon-like river called Eridanus apparently millions of years ago.

Wouldn't you be able to produce a map, that, in your opinion, reflects the land masses prior to the impact sequence? Even if it is not extra accurate, I believe it helps a lot to have a basis to focus on.

The Ice Age maps are roughly accurate, at least the ice cap locations are very well researched. The map in the other thread also added a different North Pole location at Hudson Bay. What it seems to be missing are many of the islands in the Atlantic and elsewhere, including Poseidonis - most likely at the Azores.

In waters off the coast of Brittany, archaeologists have identified an impressive set of submerged stone structures that reveal the presence of a remarkably sophisticated coastal society more than 7,000 years ago. The findings, which were made near the Île de Sein in western France, include a massive granite wall and at least a dozen smaller constructions now located several meters beneath the surface.

The largest structure is a wall measuring 120 meters long, which spans a submerged valley. Divers investigating it between 2022 and 2024 discovered stacked blocks of granite, reinforced by more than 60 upright monoliths and slabs nearly two meters high.

The find also puts an archaeological twist on local folklore. Legends from Brittany speak of a drowned city west of the Bay of Douarnenez, not far from the discovery site. While there is no evidence of any lost urban center, researchers note that memories of an abandoned coastal landscape, later submerged by rising seas, may have contributed to such stories over millennia.

Beyond the regional implications, the structures add to a growing body of underwater evidence demonstrating that complex stone-building traditions existed among coastal hunter-gatherer groups long before agriculture spread across Europe.

In his book, "Pays Atlantiques Décrits par Homère: Ibérie, Gaule, Bretagne, Archipels, Amérique", Cailleaux describes in detail Brittany's legends. Here's a summary about them from "Where Troy Once Stood" by Wilkens:

According to Cailleux, Ismarus was the legendary town of Ys, which was situated in the extreme west of Brittany, near Douarnenez. After
the town was engulfed by the sea, the French sang,

‘Since Ys is no more, Paris is without rival’.

In this town, the high priest, Hu, was said to be the custodian of the Holy Grail, the legendary chalice known from the writings of Chrétien de Troyes, among others. In Homer’s time, the high priest was called Maro, as Odysseus recounts:

"... With me I had a goat-skin of the dark, sweet wine, which Maro, son of Euanthes, had given me, the priest of Apollo, the god who used to watch over Ismarus. And he had given it me because we had protected him with his child and wife out of reverence; for he dwelt in a wooded grove of Phoebus Apollo. And he gave me splendid gifts: of well-wrought gold he gave me seven talents, and he gave me a mixing-bow/l all of silver; and besides these, wine, wherewith he filled twelve jars in all, wine sweet and unmixed, a drink divine. .. . (Od. IX, 196-205)"
