Аннотация: Abstract: Decades of research into offshore prehistoric submerged sites and a wide range of studies of seabed geology, sedimentation, geomorphology, and topography using advanced acoustic systems provide the basis for study of the prehistoric archaeology of the European continental shelf and its submerged landscapes over the last million years. Offshore surveys driven by commercial activities, hydrocarbons, aggregate dredging, and fisheries, have produced large archives of geophysical and sedimentological data that can be reanalyzed to extract descriptions of palaeo-landscapes. More than 3000 submerged prehistoric sites are known from all parts of European seas. Along the Bulgarian Black Sea coast are know at least 18 submerged settlements dated to the Late Eneolithic and Early Bronze Age (between 6500-4000 BP) and one prehistoric necropolis near Cape Shabla. For the earlier periods of human occupation of the Eastern Balkans and Black Sea shores I do not have valuable data. The reasons should be found into the lower sea level than modern. The preliminary results showed that the Black Sea continental shelf has a great potential for future deep-sea investigation in the area of prehistoric archaeology. Keywords: underwater geoarchaeology, submerged settlements, sea level change
