I was told that they built them on islands, topped with tree trunks, and then filled to form man-made islands. Over time, the weight of the buildings pushed the trees lower and lower, and they were not always under water but always on the edge. (not sure how true that is, but that’s what an Italian told me in Venice)
Wow! Excellent photography! I wonder how they built such lasting buildings on foundations under water?
