There is considerable proof that indicates that
the tub of Wadi Hitan was submerged in water some 40 to 50 million years ago.
At that time, the so-called Tethys Sea reached far south of the existing
Mediterranean.
The Tethys Sea is assumed to have retreated
north and over the years deposited thick sediments of sandstone and limestone
visible in rock formations in Wadi Hitan.
However, the worldwide famed value of the site
stems from the abundance and freaked concentration of skeletons, the quality of
its fossils, and their natural preserved setting in an attractive and protected
landscape.

that time.
it was thought to be a huge marine
reptile and hence was called the Basilosaurus meaning King Lizard. It was only
later on that the speciesism was identified as whales which at a certain point
in history, moved easily between land and sea.
The whale site and fossils at Wadi Hitan
clearly, portray the forms and modes of life during that transitional phase
representing one of the major stories of mammal evolution: the emergence of the
whale as an ocean-going mammal from a previous life as a land-based animal. In

a research team led by D. Gingerich had
found that the whales retained useless legs, feet, and toes representing rear
legs that were later lost in the evolution cycle. Many of the whale skeletons
are in good condition as they have been well preserved in the rock.
The valley has been
added to UNESCO’s World Heritage List in 2005for it's spellbinding
natural
beauty and scientific significance, an important step towards its preservation.
