Venetian wreck

Thanks for sharing that is a very interesting story!
 

from the article:

"She
(Line Clausen Pedersen) hopes the sponsor will fund some “extravagant technology” that allows a visitor to the exhibition to control an underwater exploration of the shipwreck—because “why not?” she says."

Indeed! This is where U/W archaeology needs to go.

Here's one of the few articles on the ship that I could find, it's a good one. https://secretcroatia.blog/2012/01/29/gnalic-shipwreck-exhibition-at-biograd-city-museum/

It has an incredible payload.
 

Venice is worth a visit for sure, I've been twice and plan on another soon. The maritime museum there is next to the naval base where vessels like this were produced VERY quickly. The island of Murano in the lagoon still produces some of the most beautiful and expensive glass in the world.
