Archaeologists uncover large medieval shipwreck in Barcelona<br /><br />Archaeologists excavating a former fish market in Barcelona have uncovered the wreck of a ship that may have sunk off the Catalonian coast around 500 years ago. The team discovered the ruined stern of a large vessel, likely to have gone down in the 15th or 16th centuries. A sizeable fragment of the ship, measuring 10 meters long and 3 meters wide, with more than 30 curved wooden ribs, was found well-preserved at a depth of 5 meters below sea level.<br /><br />To ensure the preservation of the naval find, the team must prevent it from drying out, meaning it must be constantly watered both day and night. <br /><br />REUTERS VIDEO<br /><br />Subscribe to The Manila Times Channel - https://tmt.ph/YTSubscribe <br /><br />Visit our website at https://www.manilatimes.net <br /><br />Follow us: <br />Facebook - https://tmt.ph/facebook <br />Instagram - https://tmt.ph/instagram <br />Twitter - https://tmt.ph/twitter <br />DailyMotion - https://tmt.ph/dailymotion <br /><br />Subscribe to our Digital Edition - https://tmt.ph/digital <br /><br />Check out our Podcasts: <br />Spotify - https://tmt.ph/spotify <br />Apple Podcasts - https://tmt.ph/applepodcasts <br />Amazon Music - https://tmt.ph/amazonmusic <br />Deezer: https://tmt.ph/deezer <br />Tune In: https://tmt.ph/tunein<br /><br />#TheManilaTimes<br />#worldnews <br />#barcelona <br />#archeologist <br />#15thcentury
