Join archaeologists and conservators along Croatia’s Dalmatian Coast as they uncover and meticulously document the submerged remains of a Roman ship in the ancient harbor of Barbir. Preserved in sediment for nearly 2,000 years, the ship's wooden hull provides experts at the International Centre for Underwater Archaeology in Zadar with invaluable insights into the ship’s origin, offering a rare glimpse into the region’s maritime history and cultural heritage. Recovered artifacts from the archaeological site, including pottery sherds, fishing weights, and Roman coins, are carefully conserved at the Centre, ensuring the preservation of their captivating stories for future generations. With specialized care, conservators delicately tend to each piece of history, so that archeologists and historians may shed light on ancient trade and daily life during the Roman era in Croatia.
