Beyond the Stone Town: Maritime Architecture at Fourteenth–Fifteenth Century Songo Mnara, TanzaniaJournal of Maritime Archaeology - Tập 7 - Trang 43-62 - 2012
Edward Pollard, Jeffrey Fleisher, Stephanie Wynne-Jones
The towns of the Swahili coast of East Africa are widely acknowledged as the
remains of a maritime society whose relationship with the ocean was fundamental
to their economy and identity. Yet research that links the terrestrial
environments of the towns to their adjacent maritime landscapes is rare, and
urgently required in the light of marine erosional processes unmitigated by
human actions. In t... hiện toàn bộ
Long-Term Corrosion Processes of Iron and Steel Shipwrecks in the Marine Environment: A Review of Current KnowledgeJournal of Maritime Archaeology - Tập 10 - Trang 191-204 - 2015
James D. Moore
Methodologies for examining the corrosion behavior of iron and steel shipwrecks
have steadily progressed since the 1970s, but the analytical techniques utilized
since then are comparatively site-specific, and the overall quantity of data
available for independent review is seemingly limited. Laudable advancements in
the fields of maritime archaeology, oceanography, and corrosion science support

Pirate Ports and Harbours of West Cork in the Early Seventeenth CenturyJournal of Maritime Archaeology - Tập 8 - Trang 347-366 - 2013
Connie Kelleher
In the early part of the seventeenth century in Ireland select harbours along
the southwest coast of Munster acted as the North Atlantic headquarters for
pirates, primarily made up of English mariners. The places picked by the pirates
as their bases were spatially strategic and three harbours in particular
dominated this West Cork landscape—Baltimore, Leamcon and Crookhaven. Complicit

Navigation implies a deep knowledge of the environment in which it is practised
as well as the development of correlated technologies and techniques. In fact,
sailing in lakes, rivers, along coasts or in high seas requires specific skills.
This is why watercraft reflect the specific expertise of cultures in relation to
the available resources and materials. Navigation as a means of movement and

Peopling Prehistoric Coastlines: Identifying Mid-Holocene Forager Settlement Strategies in Northern NorwayJournal of Maritime Archaeology - Tập 17 - Trang 131-160 - 2021
Charlotte Brysting Damm, Marianne Skandfer, Peter D. Jordan
In circumpolar regions, coastlines offer rich constellations of diverse
resources and have long been a focus of human habitation. Despite the rich
archaeological records that are located along many northern coastlines, there is
a relatively limited understanding of the range of factors that informed local
settlement strategies. Northern Norway has one of the world’s longest and
best-preserved arch... hiện toàn bộ
First Steps in Addressing the Submerged Archaeological Evidence in the Patagonian Continental Shelf, ArgentinaJournal of Maritime Archaeology - Tập 18 - Trang 85-109 - 2023
Dolores Elkin, Luis Alberto Borrero, Daniela de Hoz, John McCarthy, Jonathan Benjamin
Noting the minimal research in South America related to cultural remains which
could have become submerged due to sea-level rise at different stages in the
past since the Pleistocene–Holocene transition, we take a systematic approach in
this article towards making a positive contribution regarding inundated sites
and landscapes in Eastern Patagonia and Tierra del Fuego, Argentina. This is a
