# I just read an article about a road which was from the Hvar people and built 7,000 years ago. It is under 13 feet of water in the mediterranean sea. Was the mediterranean sea thirteen feet lower 7,000 years ago – or how is it possible that there are 7k old roads under 13 feet of water?

Oceans levels vary by hundreds of feet depending on glacial ice levels. The colder the climate and the greater the amount of ice, the lower the sea level; higher temperatures and lower ice levels result in higher sea levels.
And, the Mediterranean has lots plate boundaries where sections of land can jump up or down by dozens of feet with earthquakes.
