Book Sveti Pavao Shipwreck

Download or read book Sveti Pavao Shipwreck written by Carlo Beltrame and published by Oxbow Books. This book was released on 2014-07-31 with total page 191 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Between 2007 and 2012 the Department for Underwater Archaeology of the Croatian Conservation Institute from Zagreb and the Department of Humanistic Studies of the Ca' Foscari University of Venice collaborated in the recording, underwater excavation and analysis of the unusually well-preserved wreck of a 16th century Venetian merchantman in the Svetti Pavao shallow off the southern shore of the island of Mljet, Croatia. The shipwreck preserved many personal possessions of the crew as well as a number of bronze artillery pieces and the remains of a cargo of luxury and richly decorated ceramic material from Iznik and other oriental workshops. Although the excavation is not complete, this volume presents the results of the project so far. The methodological and technical aspects of the underwater investigation of the site, mainly by photogrammetry, are described; the historical and archaeological context of navigation in the late Medieval period in the eastern Mediterranean discussed; and the recovered artefacts described and catalogued in detail, together with the remains of the ship and its equipment that, because of depth and of problems of conservation, have been left in situ. The conservation and restoration of the finds are described in an appendix.

Book APM   Archeologia Postmedievale  18  2014   Archeologia dei relitti postmedievali   Archaeology of Post Medieval Shipwrecks

Download or read book APM Archeologia Postmedievale 18 2014 Archeologia dei relitti postmedievali Archaeology of Post Medieval Shipwrecks written by Carlo Beltrame and published by All’Insegna del Giglio. This book was released on 2014-12-11 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Archeologia dei relitti postmedievali / Archaeology of Post-Medieval Shipwrecks, a cura di Carlo Beltrame Il volume, che raccoglie undici contributi di archeologi marittimi di molti paesi, ha l’obiettivo di accendere i riflettori sulle enormi potenzialità dei relitti di età storica, mettendo a confronto, da un lato, approcci diversi (di ambito mediterraneo ma anche statunitense, australiano e nord europeo), dall’altro, contesti archeologici con caratteristiche altrettanto diverse per l’ambiente di giacitura e per l’impiego civile o militare dell’imbarcazione. Gli studi, diacronici ma incentrati sul Cinquecento e sull’Ottocento, coprono le varie sfaccettature dell’indagine storica dei relitti di età postmedievale quali la costruzione navale, il commercio e la vita di bordo, ma anche aspetti di tipo squisitamente metodologico quali l’archeologia sperimentale navale. Si tratta di una novità assoluta per l’editoria scientifica italiana in cui questo particolare, ma molto promettente, ambito della ricerca archeologica non aveva ancora trovato adeguato spazio.

Book Fishing and Shipwreck Heritage

Download or read book Fishing and Shipwreck Heritage written by Sean A. Kingsley and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2015-11-19 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For 250 years encrusted wonders have been turning up in fishermen's nets: everything imaginable from prehistoric animal bones to priceless Roman statues. Fishing trawlers annually sweep an area equivalent in size to half the world's continental shelves. Everything in the wake of these bulldozers of the deep is battered. A devastating trail of smashed shipwrecks runs from the North Sea to Malaysia. The profound threat of the global fishing industry remains a black hole in marine archaeology, poorly understood and unmanaged. Fishing and Shipwreck Heritage is the first global analysis of the threat of bottom fishing to underwater cultural heritage, examining the diversity, scale and implications on endangered finds and sites. Throughout, the key questions of whether it is too late to save the planet's three million wrecks and how sustainable management is achievable are debated.

Book BELLS from Shipwrecks pre 1830

Download or read book BELLS from Shipwrecks pre 1830 written by Tom Bennett (Shipwreck Historian) and published by TOM Bennett . This book was released on 2016-11-24 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Looking at ship's bells. Most large sailing vessels in the Victorian era had at least one ships bell, conveniently having a ships name and port of registration engraved on it. Early bells may be dated without any ship's name. Lloyds Lutine Bell has a date but a different ship's name on it. These can identify a shipwreck site but bells found without lettering pose a different problem. This book and its partner "Bells form Shipwrecks post 1830" offer indicators to look for in determining the nationality or date of a shipwreck site. A guide for divers and archaeologists.

Book The Land between Two Seas  Art on the Move in the Mediterranean and the Black Sea 1300   1700

This book was released on 2022-06-20 with total page 407 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Land Between Two Seas: Art on the Move in the Mediterranean and the Black Sea 1300-1700 focuses on the strong riverine ties that connect the seas of the Mediterranean system (from the Western Mediterranean through the Sea of Marmara, the Black Sea and the Sea of Azov) and their hinterland. Addressing the mediating role of the Balkans between East and West all the way to Poland and Lithuania, as well as this region’s contribution to the larger Mediterranean artistic and cultural melting pot, this innovative volume explores ideas, artworks and stories that moved through these territories linking the cultures of Central Asia with those of western Europe.

Book Cities and Economy in Europe

Download or read book Cities and Economy in Europe written by Katalin Szende and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-02-29 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Exploring new perspectives concerning regions traditionally considered “on the margins” of Europe, this book fills a gap in current historiography through its analysis of cities, space, and economy from the High Middle Ages to the present. Markets, trade, and economy in general have formed the backbone of urban life ever since the emergence of cities and towns, but classical theorists have largely focused on developments in Western Europe. Urban research in the last few decades has advanced in many ways to supersede and correct this still influential image and to include other parts of Europe into the analytical framework. Building on these emerging methodologies, this volume pays close attention to the fringes of Europe in the East, North, West, and South. The essays discuss the development of various spaces as nodal points for the exchange and production of commodities that took place in cities and towns. The scope of this work allows for a point of comparison to frequently studied examples in Europe, encouraging readers to identify larger patterns beyond individual examples. Cities and Economy in Europe: Markets and Trade on the Margins from the Middle Ages to the Present is the perfect resource for students and researchers of economic and urban history.
