Reclining Fish-Devil or Fertility God embracing Female on the Ocean Floor: Canaanite "Dagon", Taconic, Tokoneke, "Re-seeding the Human Race"
The location of the Reclining Devil's Embrace is 116 miles at 170 degrees from Block Island.
In the first 72 hours of this display, I believe I have made an honest mistake, and it is wonderful.
I am adding two images:
The Zoomorphic image of the Canaanite Dagon fish God, father of Baal, allegedly drawn by a Rick Sardinha...(waiting for permission)
...and the Anthropomorphic version of Pan, by an unknown artist.
Obviously, the horrific looking Dagon, who holds many roles, is followed in history by a kinder, gentler, male super-hero, Pan, aka Faun of the Greek and Roman pantheons.

Ancient Gods' attributes evolving into modern Gods...
The Abraxus and Pan figures may have come to prominence in more modern times, in the form of a Goat and then wild man, and ultimately Dionysius I truly believe. At this moment, I am seeking permission to use the images of Dagon, and Pan, in this non-profitable, educational way. The Dagon image is owned by "Wizards of the Coast".

The image was displayed and explained on comicvine.com...
As an amateur researcher, I have read that in some cultures, this Dagon fish character and the more modern "Abraxus-type", then the Pan-Faun character is the Devil himself. In other cultures, he is the epitome of Male fertility, or he is the savior of all mankind, the Rising Sun figure, or he is the agricultural God. It's tough being a God when Mother Nature destroys your kingdoms.
However, one thing this ocean floor fish-image is not, and that is Osiris, the bird-man-God, aka "Kah-Kah", the Raven, as I previouosly believed.
A prayer to the Gods, not an insult...
In this depiction of the fish figure at 7500 feet down, given the earlier discovery of the Aten Disc thrower insulting the Aten-circle believers, I think this image is meant not to be an insult as previously thought. Instead, this figure is probably meant to portray this "Father of Baal" as the "original seed of all mankind", sort of the Post-flood, last-humanoid-standing, "Adam and Eve" or "Noah".
Let me take the time to mention the "Decline of Osiris", the dismemberment of Osiris in mythology terms...i.e., "The flood".
Because I made the mistake of identifying the fish-headed figure as the bird-beaked figure Osiris, I will leave the original explanation of the consequence of the flood, in Egyptian and Greek terms.
Osiris went from the pre-flood God-of-all-Gods, to the post-flood wanton, craven devil. In fact, after one of the major flood epochs, the previous "God of all Gods" - aka Soker-Osiris became the "God of Death", with his decapitated head kicked around in ball games, i.e., "Soccer".
If you remember the mythology of his decline, that he went to a grand feast with the treacherous Set and many of his contemporaries, wherein he was tricked into a coffin and cast into the sea.
When the coffin was retrieved, his body was hacked and dismembered, with the remains scattered throughout the world. The only body part that was never recovered was the male genitalia, which was "swallowed by a fish"! Is this where the Dagon mythology was born? Dagon, father of Baal, provided the seed according to Canaanite legend, that restored the human race! Or, were the Canaanite tribes trying to impress anyone who would listen, that only the Canaanites themselves were inheritors of the seed of Osiris, via the Fish?
I am noting to the reader that this image covers 275 square miles, sloping down from 7500 to 8500 feet deep, overlooking the Bermuda-area floor ancient habitats of 17,000 feet deep.
Overall, though, I believe this image is an appeasement, an apology, a prayer message to the Gods in the Heavens, saying..."We know that the previous citizens of this area were depraved and lived evil lives, and we know why you destroyed all the kingdoms below us (-7500 ft) in the cataclysms. THEY ARE NOT US!!! We are asking forgiveness, we restored the human race, please don't destroy us too."
At the sloping elevation of -8500 upwards to -7500 feet, I am guessing that the age of this habitat-image and the zoomorphic form of the mythology, is a minimum of 10,000 years old. And note, I find very intriguing possibilities that this freakish monster may have represented the earlier form of humans, the Neanderthals, who in their tribal cultures, plausibly attempted to mate with their neighbors.
Either way, I think I have made a significant discovery, for real experts and academics to evaluate.
Further notes: The presence of the various place names in my own area, probably related in etymology to Dagon and Pan, could be mentioned here:
Taconic, New York (the Great-"ek" of Dagon/Tacon, Ta-con-ek?)
Tokoneke, Connecticut
Ticonderoga, New York
New Canaan, Connecticut
Shippan, of Stamford, Connecticut
Also note: The Greek version of the "Dagon" myth of re-seeding humanity after the flood, might be "Deucalion" and "Pyrra"....
ancienthistory.about.com/od/myths/qt/101807Deucalion.htm
"In the complicated, ever-changing Greek pantheon, there is also the curious parallel with the serpent "Ophion" and Eurynome..."In some versions of Greek mythology, Ophion (Ὀφίων "serpent"), also called Ophioneus (Ὀφιονεύς) ruled the world with Eurynome before the two of them were cast down by Cronus and Rhea."
Strangely, is the evil fish monster Dagon, a prototype of the "Serpent" in the Garden of Eden?
Huge thanks to Radagast the Brown with his Canaanite background info, on comicbook.vine, and to the alleged designer of the "Dagon image", Rick Sardinha, with copywrite ownership by "Wizards of the Coast".

May 5, 2012 note: The fish symbolic cut into the landscape of the ocean floor, 118 miles at 170 degrees from Block Island, is now officially "obscured", and is no longer visible on Google Earth. So be it! Also, the idea that the Dagon figure is "reclining" is probably a misnomer, in that the expanse of time for this figure to be perfectly upright in a North-South posture would indicate it was built in today's time frame, or one complete cycle of the North-line in the celestial heavens, 25,600 years! The fact that this figure is postured in a "today's West, the construction time's North" plausibly indicates to me, an amateur, that this is 6400 years previous to our own. (4400 BC)
December 2, 2012 update: With all the anomalies that I am uncovering, especially regarding the "Fortunate Islands", I am now leaning towards the name Deucalion as being related to Dagon, aka "Teu-kay-yawn", aka Taconic, aka Tokeneke. Yes, that is Deucalion of the Atlantis benchmark fame.
The name of this place, the 275 square miles of imagery South of Block Island, may in fact be "Deucalion".
