Why are scientists obsessed with the Black Sea? - Helen Farr and Jon Adams

2 жыл бұрынDiscover the unique conditions that make the Black Sea host to dozens of shipwrecks that date back thousands of years.
--
In 2017, researchers off the Bulgarian coast discovered the oldest intact shipwreck ever found. This ancient Greek vessel was not only nearly 2,500 years old, but was just one of 65 shipwrecks found at the bottom of the Black Sea in remarkable condition. So, why does the Black Sea contain so many well-preserved shipwrecks? Helen Farr and Jon Adams dive into the depths of the unique body of water.
Lesson by Helen Farr and Jon Adams, directed by Yuriy Polyashko, Darvideo Animation Studio.

I am always brought nearly to tears when history is allowed by nature to survive and be re-discovered. Imagine the events and the people that surrounded the ship. The daily troubles, the importance of the ship and the lives of those upon it. It is not just a wreck but a time-capsule of a bygone age and the people that lived it.
