The San Francisco call., 1904-02-21
The Romance Of Land Movements

hundred wears at least, and probably
for a far longer period, the coast OF
Greenland from Igaliko to Disco Bay
has been sinking. The proofs OF TINS
submersence have been found In the
fact that old buildings constructed on
low islands have been submerged ana
the Greenlanders take care TO oulld
their huts some distance from the
coast line. Another interesting PROOF
of this subsistence in Greenland is az
forded by the fact that some or the
earlier MorsVian missionaries nXed
strong poles in the sea beach close TO
the doors of their huts for the purpose
of mooring their boats. To-day these
poles are seen practically to hold their
places, but are far out at sea, the land
meanwhile having sunk and the sea
flowed in upon it.
The Italian coast, however, probably
furnishes us with more numerous and
more distinct examples of these slow
movements Of land within a compara-
lively limited area than possibly any
other part of the earth'S surface There,
as indeed are also found elsewhere in
the world, marks of sea action on cliffs
are met with high above the present
level of the sea. Also there are found
in such situations the burrows in the
rocks made by shell fish whose natural
habit it is to bore into stone and to
live in the burrows thus made. There
is a very interesting case of elevation
of the earth's crust found in the Ponza
Islands, situated of the coast Of Italy.
The Alteration in a Century.
1t appears that the largest island Of
this group is known as Palmarola. This
latter area of land is well nigh split
in two by the hollow which exists in
a semi-circular form, sloping to the
beach and open to the west side. The
lowest part of this hollow contains
many large stones and powders. These
are seen to be marked with the re-
mains of Serpulae tubes, these last be-
ing the limy tubes made by certain
sea worms for the purpose of protect
ing their bodies. They are familiar to
every person who has paid any atten-
tion whatever to the animal life of the
sea side. In 1856 DOlomicn visited the
Ponza Islands. He describes Palmarola
as being then divided into two parts
by a narrow canal or space Of sea,
which he states was of the dimensions
such as would allow a barge to pass
through it. This writer also construct
ed a map of these islands He shows
the canal clearly enough. 1t lies in
the position Of the semi-circular de-
preston already alluded to, this de-
preston, as we have seen. being part Of
the island itself and now above high
water mark. 1t is perfectly clear, then,
that slow elevation Of PaImarola must
have taken place within relatively re-
cent times. The extent Of land rise
represented IA this locality Is stated by
modern authorities to equal about 200
feet.
