veritatis discovered 5 months ago- A very extensive study of the lake, located in North Carolina shows that the lake was created in the vicinity of 13000 years ago. The time when the mammoth and the megafauna disappeared like overnight and dramatic climate changes happened. From the page: "The Legend of Lake Waccamaw Since its earliest recorded exploration by the naturalist, William Bartram (who was assisted in his efforts by Waccamaw Indians) in 1735, many stories have been told about the legendary origin of Lake Waccamaw. Many have proven to be the fanciful inventions of early white settlers. On the other hand, the legend of the lake's emergence in Southeastern North Carolina according to the Waccamaw Siouan Indians holds that thousands of years ago, an immense meteor appeared in the night sky, toward the southwest. Flaming to a brilliance of innumerable suns as it hurtled earthward, the meteor finally struck, burning itself deep within the earth. The waters of the surrounding swamps and rivers flowed into the crater and cooled it, creating the gem blue, verdant green lake."
