In the 1960s, a Greek sponge diver discovered an ancient shipwreck off the coast of Kyrenia, Cyprus. This episode follows the excavation and reconstruction of the Kyrenia ship, a 4th-century BCE Greek merchant vessel that sank with its cargo of wine amphoras and almonds. We explore how dendrochronology and hull analysis revealed its construction, trade routes, and the daily life of its crew. The ship's cargo tells a story of interconnected Mediterranean economies, while the preserved hull offers insights into ancient shipbuilding techniques. Listeners will encounter the names of key figures like Michael Katzev, the archaeologist who led the excavation, and learn about the challenges of underwater archaeology. This episode also touches on the political context of Cyprus in the 1960s and the ship's connection to the broader Hellenistic trading world. #KyreniaShip #MichaelKatzev #Cyprus #UnderwaterArchaeology #AncientGreekShip #MediterraneanTrade #Dendrochronology #WineAmphoras #Hellenistic #GreekHistory #MaritimeArchaeology #Kyrenia #Shipwreck #AncientTradeRoutes #GreekMerchantVessel #Archaeology #History #FexingoHistory Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
