Description

By 25,000 years ago the Last Glacial Maximum caused a Great Drought across the country and sea levels were much lower. The dome is something of camel’s hump for the rocks and sediment that comprise it function as aquifers to a range of water bodies. Life was sustainable on the dome and, if there were shallows, sustainable on the coast.
