The City is Decently Preserved
The City of Pavlopetri may be in ruins on the ocean floor, but it has remained intact for the most part. There are buildings and streets throughout the sunken town that have allowed researchers to get a better understanding of how these people lived. There are tombs in the area as well. And best of all, the construction materials, most of which were early Bronze age and middle-Minoan, allowed scientists to pinpoint how old the city was.
