Sagitario La Mina
|
https://www.cindaq.org/copy-of-sagitario-la-mina
|
In 2017, CINDAQ's dive team found evidence of ancient mining activity while exploring and mapping new tunnels of an underwater cave near Akumal, Quintana Roo, Mexico.
The Maya are known to have actively mined pigment and other minerals from the caves of the Yucatan Peninsula, but the ancient mines discovered by the CINDAQ team are now submerged, indicating that such mineral exploitation occurred thousands of years ago. At the end of the last Ice Age, intrepid miners ventured deep into these tunnels with torches in hand. The navigational markers, mining debris, fire pits and excavation pits they left behind are now entirely underwater.
In coordination with INAH-SAS, CINDAQ's team performed more than 100 dives, totaling nearly 600 diver hours underwater to create a detailed map of the site. An additional 100 diver hours were dedicated to acquiring the nearly 18,000 images used for the 3D photogrammetric models, which are enabling researchers to “virtually” access and study this remote subterranean mining complex.
The results were published in 2020 in Science Advances.

The Vessels Lost in RI during the Revolutionary War - Part III
|
https://www.rimap.org/the-other-vessels
|
RIMAP’s study of the Newport transport fleet has generated a great amount of international interest in local maritime history because one of the vessels, the Lord Sandwich, had been Capt. Cook’s Endeavour Bark of his first circumnavigation. RIMAP’s historical studies of the transports overturned the 170-year-long history of where the Endeavour was to be found in Newport Harbor, and RIMAP’s archaeological investigations have focused on a group of five sites, one of which might be that iconic vessel. Continued RIMAP fieldwork has not generated adequate proof that one site, RI 2394, is the Endeavour, to the disappointment of others interested in Cook and his explorations. At the end of this study, and following UNESCO and State protocols, RIMAP has properly closed RI 2394 and recommends that RI 2394 not be reopened without a valid scientific reason. The various phases of these transport studies have been documented in multiple publications, presentations, and videos, and all reports are available for free download on the www.rimap.org website.

The Vessels Lost in RI during the Revolutionary War - Part II
|
https://www.rimap.org/the-other-vessels
|
RIMAP’s very first archaeological fieldwork in 1993 was a sonar survey to locate the fleet of 13 privately-owned British transports scuttled in Newport’s Outer Harbor August 5-9, 1778, in the days leading up to the Battle of Rhode Island in the American Revolution. In the years since, continued remote sensing, diver ground-truthing, plus background historical research, have located and created pre-disturbance maps of 10 of these vessels. RIMAP volunteers, under professional direction, have conducted test excavations at three of these sites. Although the identification of each ship in each site is still unclear, and although less is known about the history of these commercial vessels than the more glamorous naval ships, RIMAP’s studies have demonstrated their significance for the outcome of that war.

The Vessels Lost in RI during the Revolutionary War - Part I
|
https://www.rimap.org/the-other-vessels
|
RIMAP’s early studies of the ships lost in local waters during the American Revolution included preliminary studies of HMS Lark, Cerberus, and Orpheus, three of the four Royal Navy frigates intentionally destroyed along the western shore of Aquidneck Island on August 5, 1778. Sonar searches to find HMS Juno in Coddington Cove were not successful, but the sub-bottom survey suggested the presence of one ship that was not confirmed, and that could be one of two British transport/victuallers that were also lost there at the same time. The RIMAP partners for these studies were the US Navy and the Naval Undersea Warfare Center. The Office of Naval Research and NOAA sponsored a special remote sensing demonstration that featured RIMAP’s work on these Royal Navy sites, and their video was titled “Partnerships Run Deep.”

Newport's Brenton Cove
|
https://www.rimap.org/the-other-vessels
|
There are four vessels known to have been abandoned in Newport’s Brenton Cove, one of which was the reputed Slave Ship Gem. RIMAP teams described the physical remains of these ships, including the one insecurely identified as a slaver that was abandoned there after the Civil War. Historical studies suggested that slaving was not the Gem’s history, but the study also illustrated the emotional relationship of Rhode Island as the apex of the triangle trade between Africa, the Caribbean, and Rhode Island. The results were published in the SHA/ACUA proceedings.

RI 2130 - The Fort Adams Marine Railway
|
https://www.rimap.org/new-page
|
Fort Adams is an early 19th-century US Army fort that in the 20th century sponsored a shipyard to repair and service the vessels that supported the troops stationed there. The shipyard included a marine railway used to draw out of the water craft as long as 100’ and after repair to return them to active service. The marine railway was built before the Korean War by Newport’s Crandall Shipyard, known in the 19th-century for building ocean going vessels. That business is now a major marine engineering firm located in Boston, and the original construction documents are still housed in the firm’s archives. RIMAP field teams compared the railway’s current structural details with the original marine railway specifications and has documented the continuing site disturbance by natural and human causes.

The Ships of Namquid/Gaspee Point
|
https://www.rimap.org/the-other-vessels
|
Rhode Island patriots attacked and burned HMS Gaspee in 1772 in response to increasing British interference in local trade. RIMAP began a study of this area in 2015, starting with two 19th-century vessels in the area. As part of its citizen scientist training program, the teams documented the current conditions and natural destruction of these sites. For the 250th anniversary of the burning of the Gaspee, local businesses and individuals supported RIMAP’s conclusive study of the spit where the vessel was known to have gone aground and was burned. RIMAP assembled experts to conduct the side scan sonar, sub bottom, and magnetometry surveys of the area in 2021-2. RIMAP volunteer divers ground-truthed the targets generated by those data in 2021-3 and the RIMAP land team volunteers established a research station on the nearby shore to manage the related shallow-water and land-side investigation. This effort was promoted as an opportunity for the public to observe the archaeological teams at work. Multiple presentations, publications, and a video document the various phases of this project, and RIMAP created an exhibit at the Warwick Public Library about its studies at Gaspee Point.

HMS Natal
|
https://www.nauticalarchaeologysociety.org/mod-wreck-assessments
|
The Ministry of Defence (MOD) has multiple historic shipwrecks in UK waters and little is known about the condition of many of these wreck sites. Consequently, the Nautical Archaeology Society (NAS) carried out a programme of non-intrusive condition assessments using the HMS Natal in the Cromarty Firth, Scotland as a pilot project.
The condition assessments for all future wrecks will follow the same format, using a pro-forma to ensure that there will be consistency in assessment and ongoing monitoring to determine the condition of the wrecks over time. The assessment will highlight such aspects as the collapse or otherwise of the structure, obvious examples of environmental pollution, anchor and fishing net damage and any salvage or collection of artefacts that has previously occurred.

Protected Wreck Days
|
https://www.nauticalarchaeologysociety.org/protected-wreck-days
|
One of the major aims of the Nautical Archaeology Society (NAS) is to provide divers access to Protected Wrecks and by doing so, fostering a sense of custodianship of underwater cultural heritage. Several times each year, the NAS runs Protected Wreck Days allowing qualified divers to have an extraordinary experience visiting and learning about the UK's protected wrecks. Not only do the divers get to visit sites that require a licence to visit, they also receive a thorough dive briefing and archaeological site briefing before each dive so that they will know what to look out for and will have an understanding of the underwater site and it's place in history.
We offer two Protected Wreck Day experiences. Based out of Eastbourne, Sussex, we take divers to the Norman's Bay Wreck (c.1690) and the Holland No.5 submarine (sank 1912). The Portsmouth based experience in Hampshire goes to the protected wrecks of HMS Invincible (sank 1758) and the A1 Submarine (sank 1911). These are definitely experiences for people who are interested in 'Diving for a Purpose'.

Sustainable and Resilient Coastal Cities (SARCC)
|
https://maritimearchaeologytrust.org/projects-research/sarcc-sustainable-and-resilient-coastal-cities/
|
SARCC will mainstream nature-based solutions (NBS) into coastal management and policy making, where they are integrated into existing grey infrastructure and flood defences. The project builds the capacity of urban leaders, decision-makers and officers involved in coastal flood defences to deploy NBS and understand the additional benefits that they offer in comparison to traditional grey infrastructure. The project area ranges from Cornwal in southwest England, to the Flemish coastline.
MAT are assessing the under-used archaeological, historical and palaeo-environmental information as data sources to provide insights into the impact of human activities along the coastline from the early Holocene to the mid-20th century. Analysis of the material is demonstrating long-term patterns of coastal change . This knowledge is providing a positive contribution to the coastal management, decision making process and to raise stakeholder awareness. It will be particularly valuable where nature based solutions are to be reinstated and there is a desire to work in tandem with long term natural processes rather than in opposition. The outputs will contribute to the UN Decade of Ocean Science and Sustainable development and the UN sustainable development goals 11, 13 and 14.

Discover Maritime Archaeology eLearning course
|
https://moodle.nauticalarchaeologysociety.org/
|
The Discover Maritime Archaeology eLearning course is the entry level to the Nautical Archaeology Society's Education Programme. No prior knowledge or training is required to complete this course. This online course allows people to learn the basic theory of maritime archaeology at their own pace. It demonstrates to participants that maritime archaeology is not just about shipwrecks, and it is certainly not all underwater.
The six modules in this course cover the following topics: introduction to maritime archaeology, site types, artefact investigation, legislation and recording and monitoring sites. The legislation module outlines the mechanisms that are in place to protect our heritage that is underwater, on the foreshore and on land. Participants will learn how this applies to visiting or investigating historic sites. There is a particular emphasis on promoting the UNESCO 2001 Convention on the Protection of the Underwater Cultural Heritage.
This theory course and accompanying practical Recorder Skills Day is the first of the two components of the NAS Foundation qualification, which will allow graduates to participate in NAS fieldwork in the UK and overseas.
