The MNAM-CNIAS found this doozy while rummaging around the sea bed. They found a number of maritime articles before running into it.

Here is the first article I came across. The ship appears to be a Roman Galleon, and was discovered sitting right alongside two 19th-20th century bulks.

This site has some photos and good info on Roman Galleons and what they did, when they did it, and how well.

It's a shame we had to lose so many wonderful artifacts. I think one of the most horrible tragedies had to be theNemi Ships. Took forever to finally get them raised. One the greatest recoveries in archaeological history, and it gets burned by a fleeing soldier in 1944.

Marine archaeology is really where all the exciting discoveries are being made lately. There's the ruins discovered at Alexandria in the bay of the previous city. Ruins in India. And these. I also found this while checking your story.

“The lost underwater history of the Aegean and Mediterranean” project, which began in May has already located over 20 shipwrecks, eight underwater ruins, and six sunken locations dating back to the Ottoman era.


20 shipwrecks.
