The source is AP, so I couldn't use the nice pic of the amphorae -- and, I couldn't locate the RPM original of it. Pain in the ass.

Thanks for posting this.
I went to the link, and it is interesting. There may be other shipwrecks there too.
Some worldwide organization needs to help them find and save these ancient shipwrecks and the contents of the ships.

Luv when they find such AND..kick history back another 500 years ! Is Ol’ GB in Anatolia still holding the title for “old Stuff” ?

That's Endora, y'know, from the Forest Moon of Endor.

You scoff, but the beach in Albany is where John Kerry got a Purple Heart while listening to President Nixon's broadcast during Christmas 1968.

You’re right.
It sounds about the same and homophones are of the devil.

It was a busy coastline for a really, really long time. It's nice that the find was made at "40-60 meters (yards) deep", but much more shallow sites have yielded ancient wrecks in the area.

Well they’re underwater.
They may have turned into sea hags.

So, technically, John Carry is a Albanianian.
I’ll bet he plays the lute.
Filthy Albanianian chicken sniffing lute player.
I hate him.
