Anatolian Amphorae

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 into the impact the Uluburun wreck has had on the archaeological sphere since its discovery and excavation. Let's get wet, nerds.
