The North Caesarea 1 shipwreck: challenges of re-excavating a large merchantman

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

The North Caesarea 1 shipwreck, briefly explored in the 1980s, is one of the few hulls of the Hellenistic and early Imperial periods excavated in the Eastern Mediterranean. This investigation relies on the meticulous re-examination of primary excavation data to help answer some questions regarding this hull that probably belonged to a large vessel.
