„For the first time, Spain has successfully raised an intact Roman ship from the seabed. The vessel, known as Ses Fontanelles, is a fourth-century A.D. merchant ship that sank approximately 1,700 years ago in the Bay of Palma, Mallorca. Its recovery was successfully completed after four months of complex underwater archaeological operations.
Never before has an entire Roman vessel been recovered intact in Spain. According to researchers, the achievement offers an unprecedented opportunity to study navigation, maritime trade, and shipbuilding in the Mediterranean during Late Antiquity in remarkable detail.“
