Bridge - September 2002 Data Tip are excited about jumping into the field of (underwater) technology, send pages withrelated information Technology Maritime Heritage marine archeology Data Tip http://www.vims.edu/bridge/archive0400.html
Extractions: Venturing into the underwater world is something we practically take for granted, yet the development of scuba diving is relatively new. It was 1943 when Jacques-Yves Cousteau made improvements on existing equipment and developed the basis for modern scuba gear. Since then we have reached far in our exploration of the oceans we now have the technology to film an underwater movie, send submersibles (both manned and unmanned) down to the depths to conduct scientific research, and locate shipwrecks, among other things. Although we have only had a glimpse of our vast oceans, underwater technology is revealing to us a rarely seen but fascinating environment that is a critical part of our world. Last month's Data Tip focused on the Galapagos Islands and provided you with a behind-the-scenes look at the filming of the IMAX movie, 'Galapagos'. The making of an IMAX film is no small feat. The cameras are enormous (see article photo), and the technology required to move the operation underwater is impressive. The filming of 'Galapagos' was accomplished with the help of both scuba divers and submersibles.

Extractions: For the archaeologist on land, the main dangers come from land developers. The marine archaeologist, however, must beware of the sea as they try to preserve shipwrecks from the pounding waves. Each fragile wreck is a unique time capsule of our past: encrusted cannons, ancient wine bottles and other historical treasures. Treasures that the sea is loath to give up. This is the story of underwater archaeology... Underwater time capsules Those involved in a shipwreck may lose everything in the catastrophe, including perhaps their lives. But the remains of sunken vessels and their contents, even if broken up and scattered, provide future generations with unique windows into the past. Each site represents a moment frozen in time, and every item recovered from it is part of a vast three-dimensional archaeological jigsaw. Archaeologists know they can never complete it, but by analysing the evidence they find, and fitting it into the jigsaw's framework, they come ever closer to their goal of constructing a true picture of the ship before it became a wreck. Each has a special story to tell, and is therefore a fragile and irreplaceable microcosm of its times. Top

Extractions: Wreck diving is growing more and more popular in Britain. The thrill is seeing a ship that has lain undisturbed for decades - perhaps even centuries. A chance to explore what has been out of reach for so long. However, there are risks involved with diving. Unseen dangers abound. Then, there are the rules that must be obeyed such as respecting War Graves. Welcome to the world of the diver... The sheer quantity of wrecks is of course why wreck diving is the most popular activity of Britain's scuba divers. One of the problems that the divers encounter is poor visibility. However, the often poor "viz" ,as divers call the underwater visibility, only adds to their interest in wrecks. The viz in much of Britain's inshore waters can occasionally mean that you can't see your hand in front of your face mask. It is usually approximately about three metres but it is sometimes five. On exceptional days, it is 15 (excellent) and the rare 30 metres (fantastic!).
U/W Archeology In Texas, there are several other volunteer marine archeology groups, such as theSouthwest (underwater) Archeological Society (SUAS), the Texas Archeological http://www.geocities.com/uhexso/sabine1.html
Extractions: UHEXSO Marine Archeology Mission Statement August 1997, INVINCIBLE Expedition, Galveston, Texas UHEXSO divers Rick Kouns and John Hoover hold recovered artifact. Mission Statement The Texas Historical Commission has identified over 2,000 historically significant shipwrecks in Texas waters. UHEXSO's mission is to assist the state of Texas in determining the exact locations and identities of these wrecks. UHEXSO dive teams operate so as to cause the least amount of disturbance possible to archeological sites, recovering artifacts only when necessary to identify a wreck. UHEXSO also strives to adhere to all state and federal guidelines for marine archeology and diving safety. Texas Marine Archeology In the year 2000 UHEXSO hopes to assist the Texas Historical Commission in developing a volunteer marine archeology training program that will ensure the effective use of volunteers now and in the future. It is important that we view ourselves not simply as divers, but also as stewards of our marine heritage so that we can keep volunteer marine archeology viable in Texas. A second goal is to help establish dive sites on selected shipwrecks so that divers can enjoy and explore these treasures. UHEXSO actively seeks partnerships with other volunteer groups and individuals who share these goals. In Texas, there are several other volunteer marine archeology groups, such as the Southwest Underwater Archeological Society ( SUAS ), the Texas Archeological Studies Association (

Extractions: In addition to actively participating in the marine environment through scuba, there is no better way to learn more about the sport and the ocean than through reading. I find my dives on shipwrecks to be more exciting and interesting when I've learned about their history. As a practical matter, learning about ship history, construction and archeology has enabled me to find more artifacts when I dive some of my favorite wrecks, and enjoy the history that they represented with their place in maritime history.

Extractions: UNDERWATER CULTURAL HERITAGE A TREATY OF IGNORANCE The New Jersey Council of Diving Clubs is an organization of 32 sport diving clubs in New Jersey and other nearby states. We respectfully submit the following comments on the Draft UNESCO Convention On Underwater Cultural Heritage. The proposed treaty essentially deals with shipwreck management on a colossal scale, as almost all underwater cultural resources (as defined) in a state's territorial or continental zone would be shipwrecks with few exceptions. The draft treaty assumes that any shipwreck over 100 years old is "underwater cultural heritage" and even allows a state to claim a 25 year old shipwreck as underwater cultural heritage within 200 miles of it ocean borders or anywhere on the adjacent continental shelf, which could be more than 200 miles. It is interesting to note that Congress rejected the extension of shipwreck legislation into the EEZ a few year back, and this proposal may be a move to circumnavigate the will of Congress.

Its initial objective is the construction of cultural chronology. Its intermediate objective is the reconstruction of past lifeways. Its ultimate objective is the discovery of the processes which underlie and condition human behavior. Archeology (and alternately Archaeology) is a science well suited for anyone who enjoys biology, botany, geology, chemistry, history, psychology, art, and solving a great puzzle. It is not looting and robbing. Various countries have enacted laws and regulations to ensure that their legacies are not exported or destroyed. There are acts which intend to repatriate looted legacies. In the United States of America, many state governments are sensitive to the need for archeological study and excavation when any development project state-sponsored or commercial uncovers evidence of historical human presence. It is our hope that the web pages at this site lead you to sites and projects of specific geographic regions and specific disciplines such as underwater and marine archeology. There are pages which can lead you to reference material, academic departments, libraries, museums, publications, organizations, and other endeavors. Archeology grows as a science and continues to add new disciplines to its roster, such as urban archeology and geo-archeology.
