There's some interesting examples in the Readme.

Does LIDAR work underwater?

FWIU in Grand Traverse Bay, Lake Michigan, there's a 9,000 year old stonehenge-like structure 40 feet underwater; that's 4000 thousand years older than Stonehenge and about 6000 years older than the Osireoin and the Pyramids.

There's not even a name or a wikipedia page for the site? There are various presumed Clovis sites which are now underwater in TN, as well.

Bathymetric lidar exists, but it's a lot more common for there to be enough particulates in water to mess it up than for air.

How is this related at all?

TFA literally says archaeologists discovered the crop(s) using LIDAR and GP links to a project using LIDAR to map lands.
