Louie da fly Posted September 2, 2022 Share #1 Posted September 2, 2022 (edited) I don't know if this has been posted before, and the linked article is pretty sensational and minimal in detail, but it's a very interesting find: https://www.ancient-origins.net/artifacts-ancient-technology/undersea-mystery-accidental-discovery-ghost-ship-baltic-sea-005992?fbclid=IwAR38jo3ZFy5ByI07vZfPyqLR-Tn5c7HbtWr1PtM-hVVVQVHsfqRVkhGaozI https://www.sea.museum/2016/06/11/ghost-ships-and-a-travelling-man-amazing-wrecks-in-the-baltic-sea and a rather more reliable report: https://www.academia.edu/31169793/Eriksson_N_and_Rönnby_J_The_Ghost_Ship_An_Intact_Fluyt_from_c_1650_in_the_Middle_of_the_Baltic_Sea More links (not sure if this is the same vessel - the date and details of its discovery seem different) https://www.hydro-international.com/content/news/the-story-of-a-17th-century-dutch-shipwreck-in-the-baltic-sea https://gue.com/blog/the-swan-a-17th-century-story-at-the-bottom-of-the-baltic-sea/ https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-8713661/Sunken-remains-400-year-old-Dutch-Empire-ship-Baltic-Sea.html https://www.handleproductions.com/the-age-and-the-name-of-a-unique-fluit-wreck-in-the-baltic-sea-resolved/ Steven Edited September 5, 2022 by Louie da fly Waldemar, thibaultron and mtaylor 3 Quote It's not really a ship model unless you've bled on it.

Waldemar Posted September 2, 2022 Share #2 Posted September 2, 2022 To avoid drowning in an overabundance of short publications with repetitive information, I would simply recommend one comprehensive book by Niklas Eriksson, Urbanism under Sail. An archaeology of fluit ships in early modern everyday life, 2014. It can be downloaded from the links/sites provided above by Steven. mtaylor and thibaultron 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
