#megatsunami #westernaustralia #tsunami
In this fascinating video, we explore the Wandjina event, a catastrophic mega tsunami that is believed to have occurred in Western Australia around the 17th century. Towering at an astonishing height of 500 meters, this tsunami reshaped the coastline and left a profound impact on the region’s geological features and cultural narratives.

Drawing from extensive research and the study: Cosmogenic mega-tsunami in the Australia region, we delve into the geological factors that contributed to this monumental event. The video examines how a cosmic impact may have triggered the immense wave, leading to catastrophic flooding that inundated the Kimberley region. We will discuss the evidence of geomorphic changes observed along the coast, including significant erosion and the formation of new geological features as a result of the tsunami's force.

Additionally, we will explore the connection between the Wandjina spirits and Aboriginal legends, highlighting how these stories encapsulate the cultural memory of the flood and its lasting effects. These stories provide insight into the ways Indigenous peoples have interpreted such monumental natural events, linking their spiritual beliefs to the physical changes in their environment.

Throughout the video, we emphasize the importance of understanding the Wandjina event not just as a natural disaster but as a significant part of both geological history and cultural heritage.
