Have a look at the prehistoric underwater cave paintings of the Cosquer cave, with their surprising representations of the giant penguins, which inhabited the Mediterranean from the Straits of Gibraltar to southern Italy (in French only). E gypt : teams from the CNRS based at the Centre d'Etudes Alexandrines are studying the rich history of Alexandria, using both land and underwater excavations, archives, ancient maps and texts. Since 1994, submarine excavations have explored the sunken ruins at the foot of the Qaitbay Fort and wrecks of Greek and Roman ships in Alexandria Harbour. Fragments of colossal statues of three royal couples have been found along with a monumental door (site also in French).

Extractions: Uses The Micro ROV for Scientific Studies Proven in the study of Sharks of the Great White North, Whale Sharks, Atlantic Cod, and coral reefs, the VideoRay is a practical tool for scientists and biologists doing aquatic research. It can to go deep into frigid waters to places divers cannot or would prefer not to go. As shark filmer Larry Banbrick of the Discovery Channel Canada says, "When you're working in a hostile underwater environment like the high north, having the VideoRay act as a second pair of eyes is invaluable." For short or long term monitoring of most aquatic systems, the VideoRay is easy to control, small, non-invasive, and does not produce bubbles that scare fish. It is portable and requires a minimal power supply and no special mobilization. Video is produced in NTSC or PAL formats, and special high-resolution and wide-angle lense cameras are available.

Extractions: If you are interested in becoming involved with marine archaeology, then the Nautical Archaeology Society (NAS) offers divers a chance to become involved with wreck investigation. The wrecks of two protected 17th Century warships in the Sound of Mull - the Swan and the Dartmouth - can be visited by divers by arrangement with the NAS Training Officer at the Lochaline Diving Centre in Scotland. The NAS runs a variety of practical courses ranging from a basic introduction to nautical archaeology to the skills of surveying, drawing, and taking photographs above or below the water. More advanced techniques which can be learned include the use of equipment such as magnetometers, side-scan sonar, and remotely operated vehicles (ROVs). The NAS can be contacted on 01705 818419. There are number of wrecks in British waters which are designated as historic wrecks. These may not be dived except under licence. The Historic Wreck map shows the location of some protected wrecks around Britain such as the Swan and the Dartmouth.

Extractions: T he Hellenic Institute of Marine Archaeology (HIMA) was founded in 1973 as a private, non-profit organization. Its main aim is to organize and promote maritime archaeological research in Greece and to assist the Greek Archaeological Service. It has over 400 members, with diverse academic credentials, all of whom work voluntarily. HIMA's scientific and technical expertise provides a solid background for the promotion of underwater archaeology in Greece and beyond. Its non-governmental status gives HIMA an advantageous flexibility not shared by bureaucratic governmental organizations. HIMA's multifaceted scientific activities include: Underwater surveys and excavations; Publications; Training; International cooperative projects. From 1973 until 1989 HIMA completed numerous small projects such as a survey and rescue excavations. From 1989 to 1992, under the direction of Dr. George Papathanassopoulos, HIMA has systematically investigated an Early Helladic II underwater site at the island of Dokos. On the evidence gathered to date the underwater find of Dokos is dated to ca. 2150 BC and might well constitute the cargo of an Early Helladic II ship. It could therefore prove to be the oldest known shipwreck yet discovered. The wreck at Point Iria, in the Argolid, was excavated from 1990 to 1994 under the direction of Haralambos Pennas. The cargo from the wreck, consisting of pottery from 3 different areas (Crete, Cyprus, and mainland Greece) is dated to 1200 BC. It confirms the apparently frequent and direct links between the Argolid and Cyprus at the time, and represents an "everyday" trading expedition within the Mycenaean world.

Extractions: AP019 Iron Shackle, from a shipwreck thought to be USS Alligator c. 1822 When the iron shackle was received by the conservation lab it was completely encrusted with hard marine concretions consisting mainly of calcium carbonate. This is typical of many artifacts, particularly iron artifacts, found in temperate and tropical marine environments. The original shape of the shackle was discernible in this case, but often a thick coating of marine concretion turns a marine artifact into an amorphous, indeterminate lump. The first step in examining any concreted object is to take an x-radiograph (or x-ray). The x-ray of the shackle revealed that some iron metal was left inside the concretion, but that many areas of the original shackle, like the pin, had completely corroded away. Looking at an x-ray is similar to looking at a photographic negative. The white, opaque parts of the image indicate thick, solid material, in this case either the hard outer concretion or the remaining iron inside it. The darker areas of the image represent no or little material, in this case areas of hollowness inside the concretion, such as the space where the pin used to be.

Extractions: What is Underwater Archaeology all about? This section of this web site will introduce you to the techniques of underwater archaeology. History of Underwater Archaeology Based on first-hand accounts the approximate position of the Hamilton and the Scourge was known but the depth of water in the lake prohibited exploration for years Diving technology began to be developed in the 1940s when the Aqualung was invented by Jacques Cousteau and Emile Gagnan; this enabled the systematic exploration of nautical sites. The formal techniques of nautical archaeology were pioneered by George Bass and his colleagues in the 1950s. The Swedish Museum of Maritime History was the first to list marine archaeology as one of its regular activities. Its first activity was to locate the Wasa at the bottom of Stockholm harbor, located in 1956. The wreck was raised in 1961 and can be visited today ( click here for details Learn more about Underwater Archaeology Take a Virtual Tour of the Hamilton ... Continue the Guided Tour
