Bronze Age shipwrecks
Bronze Age shipwrecks are the remains of vessels that sank during the Bronze Age, roughly from 3300 to 1200 BCE. They are significant archaeological finds that provide insights into ancient maritime trade, technology, and daily life. These shipwrecks often contain artifacts like pottery, tools, and cargo, revealing information about the materials and goods exchanged across civilizations. By studying these wrecks, researchers learn about shipbuilding techniques, navigation, and the cultural connections between ancient societies, which helps to reconstruct historical trade routes and understand the development of early maritime cultures.
