Submerged forest?

Hi all! Hope you're having a pleasant New Year's Eve.

I'm pondering whether or not to add a site to TMA. It's a site local to me, and it's bit unusual because it's a submerged forest. It's not fossilised, but preserved under the sea bed. At low tide the tree stumps can be seen on the beach.

Radio Carbon Dating gives the age of the forest as between 3500 and 1500 BCE, so it fits in to the timescale covered by TMA. The question is, how relevant is it?

Here is some on-line information...

Let me know what you think folks.
