The Pantelleria Vecchia Bank Megalith is an anomalous artifact of uncertain origin, located on the in the Sicily Channel between Sicily and Tunisia, at a depth of 40 meters underwater. Studies have suggested that the object appears to be man-made. The megalith is a large block of sedimentary calcirudite limestone measuring 12 meters long, and weighing 15 tons. The megalith contains three holes with similar diameters, which are partially filled with barnacles and other crustaceans. One of the holes, with a diameter of 60 centimeters, visibly extends all the way through the stone.

  • El Megalito del Banco Pantelleria Vecchia es un artefacto anómalo de origen incierto, ubicado en el Banco Pantelleria Vecchia en el Canal de Sicilia entre Sicilia y Túnez , a una profundidad de 40 metros bajo el agua. Los estudios han sugerido que el objeto parece haber sido hecho por el hombre. El megalito es un gran bloque de caliza calcirudita sedimentaria de 12 metros de largo y 15 toneladas de peso.​ El megalito fue descubierto por Emanuele Lodolo y Zvi Ben-Avraham en 2015 durante un estudio de mapeo del fondo marino.​ Después de que los escaneos indicaran un gran objeto aproximadamente rectangular, se desplegaron buzos y cámaras para capturar evidencia fotográfica. Los buzos describieron lo que parecía ser un gran monolito, dividido en dos secciones. Todo el banco Pantelleria Vecchi (es)

Los buzos describieron lo que parecía ser un gran monolito, dividido en dos secciones. Todo el banco Pantelleria Vecchia es un área poco profunda que alguna vez fue una isla. Según los datos conocidos del nivel del mar, se estima que la isla estuvo por última vez sobre el nivel del océano hace casi 10.000 años.​ (es)
  • The Pantelleria Vecchia Bank Megalith is an anomalous artifact of uncertain origin, located on the in the Sicily Channel between Sicily and Tunisia, at a depth of 40 meters underwater. Studies have suggested that the object appears to be man-made. The megalith is a large block of sedimentary calcirudite limestone measuring 12 meters long, and weighing 15 tons. The stone may have been carved when the area last stood above ocean level around 10,000 years ago during the early Mesolithic. The radiocarbon dating of shell fragments extracted from the stone indicate the stone itself to be 40,000 years old while the ocean floor surrounding the megalith is 10 million years old. This suggests that the megalith may have been carved from imported stone. The megalith contains three holes with similar diameters, which are partially filled with barnacles and other crustaceans. One of the holes, with a diameter of 60 centimeters, visibly extends all the way through the stone. (en)
