Nick Ashton at the British Museum told me about it. He and his team found these nearly million-year-old fossilized footprints outside of Happisburgh, so he told me about the flood in the context of why those hominins were there (who knows?!) and what would have happened to them in the long run (spoiler alert: megaflood). I was really just writing about the footprints but those mega floods are always fascinating!
I'm now thinking I might have to have a chat with you before I write that post. 😁
I probably read the same papers you did 😉
