    • "An illustration from Happel's book 'Relationes Curiosae'. This is an important early representation of oceanographic phenomena. It illustrates Kircher's idea that there are chasms in the depths of the sea into which the water flows, then percolates through the earth and up to the tops of mountains."--Website of National Maritime Museum.
