Researchers just unearthed a lost island in the Aegean

An ancient island where the Athenians and the Spartans battled in 406 BC has been discovered by an international group of geo-archaeologists. 

The scientists, led by researchers from the German Archaeology Institute, examined underground rock layers from an Aegean Sea peninsula near Bademli village in the western Izmir province of Turkey and discovered that it was once an island, according to reports from Doğan News Agency. Based on archaeological remnants and ceramics in the village, the archaeologists believe they have discovered the lost city of Kane, where the ancient Battle of Arginusae took place. Kane was an ancient city on one of three Arginus islands; the other two islands still exist and are today called the Garip islands.
