G is forested shore. But this assessment does not mean that all anomalies in the shallows around Bimini have been exorcised. Be this as it may, our purpose here is the recording of some of the features near Bimini that Richards thinks are still anomalous. Three of these are located at A, B, and D in the accompanying drawing, which is based on an aerial photo taken at 6,000 feet. This bend is decidedly anomalous for a beachrock formation.
B consists of a parallel row of stones.
D is made up of regularly spaced piles of stones and extends over 1 miles, cutting diagonally across ancient beach lines. Inspecting these regularities from a small boat, Richards found no obvious structures of any kind. Rather, the patterns were caused by sea grass and white sand. Even so, these superficial patterns may reflect the presence of artificial structures under the sediments. Certainly, if these regularities were observed in a photo taken over land, archeologists would rush to dig away the overburden.
