guy Posted July 28, 2021 Report Share Posted July 28, 2021 (edited) I’m waiting for more reports to come in: Quote “An ancient Roman vessel dating back to the second century BC has been discovered in the Mediterranean Sea off the coast of Palermo. The ship lies 92 metres (302ft) deep in the ocean, near Isola delle Femmine, and from the first images taken by a submarine robot it was carrying a copious cargo of wine amphorae. The findings will shed light on Rome’s trade activity in the Mediterranean, where the Romans traded spices, wine, olives and other products in north Africa, Spain, France and the Middle East.” https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.theguardian.com/world/2021/jul/28/ancient-roman-ship-discovered-off-coast-of-sicily Edited January 28 by guy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
