An ancient lake is a lake that has consistently carried water for more than one million years. Many have existed for more than 2.6 million years, the full Quaternary period. Ancient lakes continue to persist due to plate tectonics in an active rift zone. This active rift zone creates lakes that are extremely deep and difficult to naturally fill with sediment. Due to the prolonged life of ancient lakes, they serve as models for isolated evolutionary traits and speciation. Most of the world's bodies of water are less than 18,000 years old. There are only 20 ancient lakes over 1 million years old.

  • Unter einem Langzeitsee (englisch ancient lake) versteht man einen See, der mindestens eine Million Jahre lang ununterbrochen Wasser führt, denn in der Regel sind limnische Standgewässer weit jünger. Zahlreiche postglaziale Seen (beispielsweise der Bodensee) sind keine 20.000 Jahre alt. Die kurze Existenz von solchen Standgewässern liegt am regelmäßigen Eintrag von Sediment durch die Zuflüsse. Dadurch verlandet der See binnen weniger Jahrtausende. Meist liegt der Grund für die lange Lebensdauer von Langzeitseen in einer geologischen Formation. Dabei wirkt beispielsweise die Plattentektonik der Verlandung entgegen. (de)
  • 古代湖(こだいこ、英語:ancient lake)とはおよそ100万年以上存続している湖の呼び名。一般的に湖の寿命は数千年から数万年と言われている。これは、流入する河川からの堆積物で湖が埋め立てられるためである。しかし一部の湖は100万年以上の年齢をもち、なかには数百万年から2000万年以上の寿命を有する湖が存在する。このような湖を古代湖と呼ぶ。その多くは、断層活動によって地殻に深い裂け目が生じた結果生まれた構造湖である。古代湖では水域が長期間に渡って存在するため、固有種と呼ばれるその湖に適応して独自の進化を遂げた生物による豊かな生態系が見られる。世界でも古代湖は20箇所ほどでしか確認されていない。 (ja)

  • Een langlevend meer (Engels: ancient lake, long-lived lake) is een meer dat meer dan honderdduizend tot miljoenen jaren bestaat of heeft bestaan. Dergelijke meren onderscheiden zich van gewone, kortlevende meren die niet langer bestaan dan enkele tientallen tot maximaal honderdduizend jaar, dat wil zeggen niet ouder dan het Vroeg-Weichselien. Door hun langdurig bestaan heeft er zich meestal een endemische flora en fauna in ontwikkeld. In veel opzichten vertonen langlevende meren en hun ecosystemen grote verwantschap met geïsoleerde eilanden die vaak eveneens een hoge graad van endemisme kennen. (nl)
  • Um lago antigo é um lago que constantemente conteve água no último milhão de anos. Muitos lagos existem há mais de 2,6 milhões de anos, o período Quaternário completo. Os lagos antigos continuam a persistir devido à tectónica de placas em . Esta zona de rifte ativa cria lagos que são extremamente profundos e difíceis de preencher naturalmente com sedimentos. Devido à vida prolongada de lagos antigos (1-30 milhões de anos), estes servem como modelos para características evolutivas isoladas e especiação. A maioria dos corpos de água tem menos de 18.000 anos. Existem apenas 20 lagos com mais de 1 milhão de anos. (pt)
