AZERBAIJAN - Mystery of the Sunken Sabayil Castle, BAKU.

Mystery of the Sunken Sabayil Castle
BAYIL TOWER in B A K U - around which only legends were wandering yesterday - has become a historical truth today.
The mysterious Sabayil castle has appeared in Azerbaijani history for centuries.
Throughout the millennia, the water level of the Caspian has fluctuated dramatically. From 1723 up until the early 20th century, the sea level was receding. Beginning in the 1930s, it became possible to see the ruins of a castle underwater. In quiet weather, people could tell that the castle had stone tablets with writing on them. Sabayil was no longer just a legend - it was a real castle, built on a small island in the Baku bay, about 300 meters offshore.
How did the original castle called Bayil Gasri disappear? According to ancient chronicles, there was a large earthquake in the Caspian Sea in 1306. Perhaps the sea level rose enough to submerge the castle and the island it was built on.
The Institute of History at the Academy of Science researched the fortress, a project that took 30 years (1939 to 1969). Researchers found that even basic questions were difficult to answer, such as: What was it for? When was it built? Who built it?
The 180 x 40 m castle had a trapezoidal shape that extended from north to south. Surrounding the castle were walls with semi-circular towers that probably served as watchtowers. The castle's walls were 1 1/2 to 2 meters thick, which suggests that the building may have been used as a defense tower, just like Baku's famed Maiden's Tower.
Al-Bakuvi, a native of Baku, wrote in 1430 in his Kitab-talkhis el-asar ve el-melik el-gahhar: Baku has two castles, very strong, built of stone. One of them is very large and on the shore [Maiden's Tower]. This is the castle that the Mongols could not conquer. The other is further offshore. Its upper parts have been destroyed.
