The Nauti Archaeologist Podcast

Coming back from hiatus soon! Grab a beer and your notebook, and come hang out with me as I tell you about shipwrecks and submerged cities in conversations with the people who helped document them. We will talk about the science, the research, and address cultural implications of what these discoveries mean to the communities they may affect. Who knows? You might also hear a ghost story or two!

Rene-Robert Cavelier Sieur de la Salle was an arrogant monk-turned-adventurer (this sounds like the start of a D&D campaign) responsible for most of the French expansion in the Great Lakes area and along the Mississippi River. Of course, as an adventurer, he's used to loss, but his final expedition was particularly plagued by shipwrecks (multiple), snake bites, prickly pear incidents, and Indigenous nations. Tough break.

Before betraying the burgeoning United States of America to the British for a new rank and some new digs, Benedict Arnold bought the Continental Army some much needed time to recover from the previous season of fighting during the year of 1776.

One of the oldest shipwrecks in the world, the Uluburun Shipwreck, sometimes looped together with the Cape Gelidonya wreck, is in a league of her own. Scientists conducted over 22,000 dives to the wreck between 1984 and 1994, collecting thousands of artifacts that give us a glimpse of Bronze Age merchant trade and what a ship laden with gifts fit for a queen looks like 3,000 years later. Joined again by Dr. Jim Delgado, we look int...

The Goonies, 1985, is a fictional story about several local kids who find a pirate ship full of treasure in a sea cave, almost frozen in time. Inspired by the shipwreck rumors on the Northwest Oregon coast, seemingly confirmed by the artifacts washing ashore, no one was aware of the true story – the political maneuvering, powerful religious figures, bribery, smuggling, a trial, and a daring escape from port that doomed the Manila G...
