A prehistoric British town, swallowed by the sea

The BBC has an article by Howard Timberlake about a British town, now gone:

Since the site was discovered in 1999, the excavations at Bouldnor Cliff have uncovered an eight-thousand-year-old settlement. The people who lived there seem to have possessed a level of technology two thousand years ahead of the norm for the period.
BBC Britain and BBC Earth joined the archaeologists studying the settlement, who are trying to uncover its secrets before the sea washes them away forever.
