This is a sketch of new discovery found by divers of the Carpathian coastline. It is as yet unclassified and an enigma to scientists across the globe. Anatomical analysis has so far shown three distinct sections that make up the body of this unique creature.

Already many speculative claims as to the origin of the specimen have been published. Theories include a rare species of arthropod, prehistoric aquatic reptile, or deformed sea snake. Other more outlandish propositions suggest that it is extra terrestrial in nature or the remains of a mythical serpent which is referenced in a greek legend about Atlantis. Others cry hoax and question the validity of the findings.
What ever the case this is not a mystery that is eager to give up its secrets.
