Hunley I. Introduction A. The submarine H.L. Hunley (" Hunley ") was lost off the coast of Charleston, South Carolina, after successfully attacking the USS Housatonic on February 17, 1864. This action was one of the most remarkable events in naval history as it was the first example of a submarine successfully sinking a ship in military action and was an accomplishment not achieved again until World War I, approximately fifty years later.

Services Licensing Contact Us Site Map Florida's Underwater Archaeology Program is based in the R. A. Gray Building in Tallahassee. The Gray Building houses the Museum of Florida History, the Florida State Archives, the State Library of Florida, and the offices of the Division of Historical Resources, including the Bureau of Archaeological Research and its Research and Conservation Laboratory. In 1990, the Florida Bureau of Archaeological Research initiated the Pensacola Shipwreck Survey to conduct a pilot study of Pensacola Bay shipwrecks and to prepare a regional model for their management and protection. Over the course of two years, forty wrecked or abandoned vessels were studied, ranging in size from a 14-foot wooden punt to a 450-foot steel battleship, and in age from colonial to modern times. The sites were located by consulting historical records, local fishermen and divers, and by sophisticated electronic sensing equipment, including a variety of instruments that were towed along the bottom of the bay to detect man-made deposits. The Historic Pensacola Preservation Board with its direct support organization Historic Pensacola, Inc., is situated in the city's waterfront historic district. The Board manages three state museums as well as a number of historic buildings and exhibits, and has established a strong local community support network. Given its public mission and central role in historic preservation, the Board, under the direction of John Daniels, was invited to become a partner in the shipwreck project. A conservation laboratory to treat artifacts from the Emanuel Point Ship was established in the basement of this building, the T. T. Wentworth, Jr. Florida State Museum.

Working with Principal Investigators, Richard Gould and Donna Souza from Brown University, we used the technique of trilateration to document the shipwreck North Carolina from July 8-22, 1999. Scientists break large projects into team units to make the work more manageable. Our team is going to continue the work of documenting a research site that was recently uncovered. Before artifacts can be removed for closer study, our job is to create a diagram showing exactly where everything is so artifacts can be replaced in their original positions after they are removed.

San Pedro Underwater Archaeological Preserve San Pedro gives students a unique opprtunity to study underwater archeology and marinebiology while mastering thei r diving and underwater documentation skills http://www.indiana.edu/~scuba/san_pedro/
Extractions: Located 1.25 nautical miles offshore of Lower Matecumbe Key, the San Pedro is among Florida's oldest artificial reefs. On Friday, July 13 1733, she departed Havana Cuba, as part of a Spanish treasure fleet bound for Spain. The next day a hurricane scattered the fleet over 30 miles of the Florida Keys, and all but one of the three galleons and eighteen merchant ships perished in the storm. The Spanish crown salvaged part of their cargo of tanned hides, rare spices, silver, gold, and jewels, in the 1730's. Although the remaining treasure and numerous artifacts were recovered in the 1960's, the shipwrecks has many features of historical intrest, such as the ship's ballast stones, typically dense stones from European river beds, that were stacked in the lower holds of the sailing ship to increase stability. Established as an Archaeological Preserve on April 1, 1989, the site is now protected as part of Florida's Shipwreck Park System. The San Pedro is representative of the European Colonial era of Florida's maritime heritage, and offers visitors a vivid sen se of history while viewing an actual shipwreck site. The park includes ship's remains, an eighteenth century anchor , replica cannons , ballast stones encrusted with coral, Dedication Plaque, and a mooring buoy system to facilitate boat visitation.
VNN World - Underwater Museum In Dwarka Yet To Surface India Abroad News Service BANGALORE Nearly two decades after marine archeologistsfound the on a proposal to establish the world s first underwater museum to http://www.vnn.org/world/WD9902/WD13-3039.html
Extractions: The proposal for the museum, submitted by the Marine Archeology Center of the National Institute of Oceanography (NIO) in Goa, involves laying a submarine acrylic tube through which visitors can view through glass windows the ruins of the city said to have been be ruled by Sri Krishna, 3,500 years ago. An alternative suggestion is to have acrylic wells, to be accessed through boats, from which the remains can be viewed. "The search for the lost city has been going on since 1930," S. R. Rao, former adviser to the NIO who is still actively involved in the excavations, told India Abroad. "It is only after marine archaeologists started exploring the seabed near modem Dwarka from 1981 that the structural remains of the city were found." Rao said that if a fraction of the funds spent on land archeology were made available for under-water archaeology, more light could be thrown on Dwarka, which had much archeological significance because it was built during the second urbanization that occurred in India after the Indus Valley civilization in northwestern India. Dwarka's existence disproves the belief held by Western archeologists that there was no urbanization in the Indian subcontinent from the period between 1700 B.C. (Indus Valley) and 550 B.C. (advent of Buddhism). As no information was available about that period, they had labeled it the Dark Period.
