Evidently, there's oceanographic evidence that the Mediterranean itself was dry at one time, with an equivalent event (well of type, it was by definition, larger) at Gibraltar, though, it seems to me that it was sometime very much closer to the last ice age than the events described in today's news.
It's well-established that the Mediterranean inundation was more than 10 million years ago.
