Oldest Deep-Sea Shipwreck Discovered Off Israeli Coast
A 3,300-year-old shipwreck discovered in the Mediterranean Sea has rewritten our understanding of ancient sailing, revealing that ancient mariners could navigate open seas without sight of the shore. Found by Energean during an environmental survey, the ship contained hundreds of intact jars likely used for transporting oil, wine, or agricultural products, indicating extensive maritime trade. The discovery, described as a world-class sensation, will be displayed in Jerusalem this summer.
