Phantom Islands: The Landmasses that Disappear
Podcast: Mystery of EverythingPublished On: Mon Aug 12 2024
Description: A phantom island is a purported island which was included on maps for a period of time, but was later found not to exist. They usually originate from the reports of early sailors exploring new regions, and are commonly the result of navigational errors, mistaken observations, unverified misinformation, or deliberate fabrication. Some have remained on maps for centuries before being "un-discovered".
