There was a program on TV 2 nights ago which showed the ancient harbour being excavated in the maramaras tunnel project, and the preservation vats for the ships timbers. The time to do just one ship is phenomenal, and they have how ever many to do?
I saw a few of the artifacts being dug up, including some sort of pointed oil lamp type thing with a cross on it...not a good description,I know, but it was totally intact....
I hope they will be given enough time to do the complete excavations.... The show certainly made it sound as though work was halted until it was, any way. :roll:
