When I was a kid, I used to read a book (likely from the '60s) about a pair of kids who find an ancient lizard/fish man inside a cave. The cave has been recently exposed by an earthquake and the creature is inside a super technologically advanced stasis chamber. I think this creature's name is something like "Sslaa". He takes the kids on an quest to find his lost underwater city.
They end up finding the city, which is still populated by creatures like himself, and protected from the ocean above by an immense diamond dome. Eventually, Sslaa has to drive an advanced mining vehicle deep into the crust of the earth, presumably to prevent his city's destruction by an impeding magma flow or other seismic event.
For extra obscurity bonus points, I could swear I managed to find this book on google several years ago, and was shocked to learn that it had originally been written in German, and then translated to English.
Does anyone out there recognize this one?
