The Artifact Assemblage
More than 5,000 artifacts and ecofacts are recovered during the two investigative campaigns. Although the ship was salvaged by survivors after sinking, elements of the ship’s equipment, armament, precious cargoes, and remnants of its last voyage of colonization were recovered from the lower hull. Although waterlogged after centuries in the sea, these materials, including shoe leather and ceramics, botanical and faunal remains, and galleywares and other tools, were found in excellent stages of preservation.
