Atlantis in the world
In the Narragansett Bay area and part of Massachusetts, folded rocks formed a large depression (or basin) during the Alleghenian Orogeny. Sediments accumulated in the Narragansett Basin forming shale, which makes up the upper layers of bedrock beneath much of the area.
Continuing collisions led to creation of the "supercontinent" Pangaea (meaning "all lands" in Greek) about 306 million years ago. (See color-coded sketch at right.) The present east coast of North America was far from the sea.
