Shipwrecks and Sunken Treasure Click title for additional information and/or ordering. Ship of Gold in the Deep Blue Sea / by Gary Kinder In 1857, the Central America, a sidewheel steamer ferrying passengers fresh from the gold rush of California, laden with 21 tons of California gold, encounters a severe storm well off the Carolinas and sinks, carrying 400 passengers and her treasure with her. She was gone for 132 yearsuntil 1989, when a vessel sailed into Norfolk, VA, fat with a billion dollars in salvaged gold coins, bullion and artifacts. This is the story of Central America's sinking, Tommy Thompson, the man who raised her treasures from over 8,000 feet down, and how he did it. The story of the steamer's sinking alone is compelling enough to make any reader wonder why the Central America sinking isn't synonymous with "shipwreck" in this Titanic-happy age. America's Lost Treasure by Thomas G. Thompson, Tommy Thompson This is THE best gold salvage book of all time. With 250 color photos and illustrations, "America's Lost Treasure" chronicles the sinking and recovery of the Central America, the Ship of Gold. It is the coffee-table companion to Gary Kinder's " Ship of Gold in the Deep Blue Sea ", and neither book is really complete without the other. The awesome pictures are exactly what the numismatic world has been clamoring for since the discovery of the SS Central America first hit the news in 1988. The lavish use of 19th century pictures, drawings, and accounts of the sailing and sinking of the SS Central America add to the records of the search and salvage of her wreck. But far the most impressive thing in this book are the stunning pictures of the tons of gold coins and bars both scattered on the deep ocean floor and arranged for display after recovery.

DEEP SEA DISCOVERY JULY 31, 1997 TRANSCRIPT Using nuclear submarines, archaeologists have located the largest concentration of ancient shipwrecks ever found, representing a new marriage of oceanography and the humanities. Elizabeth Farnsworth speaks with explorer Robert Ballard about the archaeological find. A RealAudio version of this NewsHour segment is available. Outside Links View National Geographic's ancient shipwreck news summary A treasure-hunters' site discusses artifacts from the Titanic Visit RMS Titanic, Inc's Titanic Online page View NOVA's report on the Britannic , the Titanic's sister ship. ELIZABETH FARNSWORTH: You are looking at pre-cut Roman columns and giant blocks of granite or marbleartifacts from a shipwreck discovered thousands of feet down in the Mediterranean Sea. They may have been pre-fab Roman buildings on their way to Northern Africa, across a particularly rough stretch of water. The discovery is considered especially important because it occurred in the deepest sea, which until now has been virtually unexplored. The U.S. Navy was part of the project, loaning its nuclear submarine, the NR-1. Robert Ballard, who earlier found the Titanic and the German battleship Bismarck, led the expedition. Making use of the submarine’s advanced radar, as well as an unmanned submersible robot vessel, Ballard’s group scouted an ancient Mediterranean trade route last spring.

Your browser does not support javascript Key Shipwreck Actions in Norfolk August 2, 2000 by Mark Rose and Angela M.H. Schuster Courts in Norfolk, Virginia, have made a precedent-setting decision regarding sovereign ownership of shipwrecks and issued an important order concerning the salvaging of Titanic. Sovereignty While it has long been held that individual countries maintain ownership of their own sunken naval vessels, few countries have asserted their sovereignty over an early wreck. In 1996, however, Spain moved to claim the remains of the frigates La Galga, which sank in 1750, and Juno, which sank in 1802, both off the Virginia coast of Assateague Island (see " Spain's Day in Court "). The two wrecks had been claimed by Sea Hunt, Inc., a salvage firm headed by a Mr. Ben Benson. In April 1999 federal judge J. Calvitt Clarke, Jr., of the Eastern District Court in Norfolk ruled that while Spain did have rights to Juno, the 1763 Treaty of Paris, which ceded to Britain all North American Spanish possessions, included the wreck of La Galga.

Pride goes before destruction, a haughty spirit before a fall. Proverbs 16, 18 other stories Previous story: Where are you? deutsch Next story: Proof appears at the bottom of the ocean 15th April Not to us, O Lord, not to us but to your name be the glory because of your love and faithfulness. Psalm 115, 1 The defeat of mechanization This is the title of an article in the French magazine "Science and Life" of February 1998. This article comments the dramatic shipwreck of the famous Titanic: Actually, the blind faith in the benefits of mechanization sank with this ultramodern liner in 1912. At that time the first cars, radio, aeroplanes appeared. Man sincerely believed that the scientific progress would have totally eliminated the antique risks of shipwreck at sea. The Titanic was the biggest, most powerful, nicest and surest liner of the world. In the eyes of the public it had been conceived by engineers who had anticipated and calculated everything. They thought that nothing could happen to it. But on it's first journey it sank like a stone with more than 1500 passengers and crew on board after striking an iceberg. The modern technique had totally failed. This is why this shipwreck is such a psychological repercussion." The admiration of works by which man surpasses himself contributes to give himself a high opinion of his capacities. At the same time this greatness masks the deepest destitution of morality. Everything which man can invent and build with his extraordinary capacities which are given to him is without power when comparing with God's glory.

PRINT IT DISCUSS IT CHINESE SEND TO FRIENDS The explosion of Jiangya Ship out on the sea from the Yangtze River outlet 52 years ago once killed 2,353 people, 836 more than those in the Titanic accident, therefore claiming the biggest victim number among world top four ship accidents. This is a revelation by Chen Jianguo, deputy chief-editor of commission for compiling navigation history of the Yangtze River. Published by the People's Communication Press on November 1997, "A Brief History of Navigation on the Yangtze River" says the Jiangya ship, altogether with 3253 passengers aboard, suddenly exploded after sailing out of Wusong Estuary, December 3, 1948. "The victim number hit over 2350". While according to Wuhan Evening reporting, the "Brief History" published in May 1992 says there is altogether 2798 people on board, and " a total of 1483 passengers and crew died" after the explosion and sinking of the ship. Here appears a gap of 867 number of victims between the two. The 79-year-old Chen says he has been to Shanghai many times for old newspaper reports on the accident, calling on many people concerned. Investigation shows there are more than 3200 people on that ship, including 2607 ticket-holders, 191 crew, and over 400 disbanded Kuomintang soldiers and pick-ups of the crew who have no tickets.

World of Cruises Undersea Adventures: Explore Famous Shipwrecks and Sinkings FIRST-EVER MANNED SUBMERSIBLE DIVES TO BISMARCK SEATTLE, WA: She was Germany's most powerful battleship, so feared that the British Navy put every available warship to sea to intercept and sink her. Defeated in a fiery battle in May of 1941, the Bismarck now rests on the ocean floor a few hundred miles off the coast of Ireland, unseen by human eyes for 60 years. Now, a handful of adventurers can dive to the Bismarck with Zegrahm Expeditions and Deep Ocean Expeditions, participating in the first-ever manned submersible voyage to see the infamous German warship. Discovered by Dr. Robert Ballard in 1989 via remote vehicle, the Bismarck lies at a depth of approximately 15,000 feet. Upright in a field of undersea volcanoes, she is surrounded by a debris field littered with the machinery of war, including massive gun turrets. Using the MIR I and II, the same deep-diving submersibles utilized in Titanic dives, Operation Bismarck participants will descend into the cobalt depths of the North Atlantic to see what is undisputedly the most famous battleship in the world.
