Description

Explore the history of the 16th century Venetian merchantman through this detailed account of the Sveti Pavao shipwreck. Located in the Svetti Pavao shallow off the southern shore of Mljet, Croatia, this wreck provides a rare look into maritime life and trade during the 1500s. This publication documents the collaborative efforts between the Department for Underwater Archaeology of the Croatian Conservation Institute from Zagreb and the Department of Humanistic Studies of the Ca' Foscari University of Venice. Between 2007 and 2012, these institutions worked together on the recording, underwater excavation, and analysis of this site. The vessel is noted for being unusually well-preserved. It contains a wealth of historical evidence, including personal possessions belonging to the crew, several bronze artillery pieces, and remains of a cargo consisting of luxury and richly decorated ceramic items. This book serves as a formal record of the archaeological findings from one of the most significant underwater excavations in the region.
