Check out the fascinating story of excavations at Yenikapi where archaeologists from INA documented a complex of sunken ships from the Byzantine port of Theodosius (serving Constantinople). With cargoes and rigging intact, this discovery was an amazing snapshot of trade from 1000 years ago in the Eastern Mediterranean. Enjoy the 20 minute documentary put together in the high-quality style of INA while we wait for the real spring to arrive and the waters to warm.
