76% Informative
The newly-found sunken islands are named 'Los Atlantes' in a nod to the myth of Atlantis .
They were located east of Lanzarote , one of the seven main Canary Islands that are located just off the coast of Africa .
The team estimate that Los Atlantes existed as islands during the Eocene time period, between 56 and 34 million years ago.
The islands may have sunk when the volcanoes stopped erupting.
