Download or read book Underwater Archaeological Reconnaissance and Historical Investigation of Shipwreck Sites in Lockwood s Folly Inlet Brunswick County North Carolina written by Gordon P Watts (Jr) and published by . This book was released on 1986 with total page 97 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The U.S. Army Engineer District, Wilmington, developed plans for improving the authorized navigation channel. In response to concerns that the proposed activity could impact cultural resources in a proposed National Register District fot Civil War shipwrecks, both historical and remote sensing investigations of the inlet were conducted. Investigation of three vessels included the shipwreck traditionally identified as the blockade runner BENDIGO. Reconnaissance level surveys of 2 sites produced data to support identification of the wrecks as the blockade runner ELIZABETH and the gunboat USS IRON AGE. Investigation of the BENDIGO generated data confirming the traditional identity of the ship, assessed the condition of vessel remains at the site, and produced an indication of the nature ans scope of the archeological record associated with the ship. Except for highly detailed vessel specific research, most of the historical and archeological research questions identified in the Cape Fear Civil War Shipwreck District nomination could more effectively be answered by investigation at other shipwreck sites. Requirements for mitigation should be limited to research associated with unique aspects of the BENDIGO and ELIZABETH, documentation of threatened vessel structure, and archeological salvage of associated cultural material.

Download or read book Maritime Archaeology written by Lawrence E. Babits and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-11-11 with total page 534 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume initiates a new series of books on maritime or underwater archaeology, and as the editor of the series I welcome its appearance with great excitement. It is appropriate that the first book of the series is a collection of articles intended for gradu ate or undergraduate courses in underwater archaeology, since the growth in academic opportunities for students is an important sign of the vitality of this subdiscipline. The layman will enjoy the book as well. Academic and public interest in shipwrecks and other submerged archaeological sites is indicated by a number of factors. Every year there are 80 to 90 research papers presented at the Society for Historical Archaeology's Conference on Historical and Underwater Archaeology, and the Proceedings are published. Public interest is shown by extensive press coverage of shipwreck investigations. One of the most important advances in recent years has been the passage of the Abandoned Shipwreck Act of 1987, for the first time providing national-level law con cerning underwater archeological sites. The legislation has withstood a number of legal challenges by commercial treasure salvors, a very hopeful sign for the long-term pres ervation of this nonrenewable type of cultural resource. The underwater archaeological discoveries of 1995 were particularly noteworthy. The Texas Historical Commission discovered the Belle, one of La Salle's ships, and the CSS Hunley was found by a joint project of South Carolina and a private nonprofit organization called NUMA.

Download or read book Site Formation Processes of Submerged Shipwrecks written by Matthew E. Keith and published by University Press of Florida. This book was released on 2016-01-30 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many factors influence the formation of shipwreck sites: the materials from which the ship was built, the underwater environment, and subsequent events such as human activity, storms, and chemical reactions. In this first volume to comprehensively catalogue the physical and cultural processes affecting submerged ships, Matthew Keith brings together experts in diverse fields such as geology, soil and wood chemistry, micro- and marine biology, and sediment dynamics. The case studies identify and examine the natural and anthropogenic processes--corrosion and degradation on one hand, fishing and trawling on the other--that contribute to the present condition of shipwreck sites. The contributors also discuss how these varied and often overlapping events influence the archaeological record. Offering an in-depth analysis of emerging technologies and methods—acoustic positioning, computer modeling, and site reconstruction--this is an essential study for the research and preservation of submerged heritage sites.
