Book Synopsis Historic Wreck Sites at Risk by : Mark Dunkley
Download or read book Historic Wreck Sites at Risk written by Mark Dunkley and published by . This book was released on 2017-12-14 with total page 20 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A potential cause of harm to an archaeological site or monument is known as a hazard. The effects of a hazard upon archaeological deposits equate to a measure of risk and so 'risk' in this context therefore means uncertainty of outcome. Where assessed, an Historic Wreck Site will be considered to be at high risk if there is a significant likelihood of loss or further loss of historical, archaeological or artistic significance from it within the foreseeable future. Historic England recognises that natural processes, such as erosion, cannot always be prevented. Historic Wreck Sites that are subject to such forces will not be considered at risk if they are subject to a planned programme of managed change, recording and investigation. This document, comprising an update to a Risk Management Handbook published in 2008, describes a methodology to be adopted by Historic England, contract archaeologists, Licensees and others engaged in the risk assessment and risk management of England's Historic Wreck Sites.

Book Synopsis Site Formation Processes of Submerged Shipwrecks by : Matthew E. Keith
Download or read book Site Formation Processes of Submerged Shipwrecks written by Matthew E. Keith and published by University Press of Florida. This book was released on 2016-01-30 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many factors influence the formation of shipwreck sites: the materials from which the ship was built, the underwater environment, and subsequent events such as human activity, storms, and chemical reactions. In this first volume to comprehensively catalogue the physical and cultural processes affecting submerged ships, Matthew Keith brings together experts in diverse fields such as geology, soil and wood chemistry, micro- and marine biology, and sediment dynamics. The case studies identify and examine the natural and anthropogenic processes--corrosion and degradation on one hand, fishing and trawling on the other--that contribute to the present condition of shipwreck sites. The contributors also discuss how these varied and often overlapping events influence the archaeological record. Offering an in-depth analysis of emerging technologies and methods—acoustic positioning, computer modeling, and site reconstruction--this is an essential study for the research and preservation of submerged heritage sites.

Book Synopsis Threats to Our Ocean Heritage: Potentially Polluting Wrecks by : Michael L. Brennan
Download or read book Threats to Our Ocean Heritage: Potentially Polluting Wrecks written by Michael L. Brennan and published by Springer. This book was released on 2024-06-10 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This open access volume focuses on the environmental hazards and cultural significance of Potentially Polluting Wrecks (PPWs), and how mitigation efforts have assisted in documenting and preserving the history of these sites. It is an important resource on the subject of Potentially Polluting Wrecks that synthesizes previously published information that was not academically or scientifically produced. This includes numerous international studies of shipwreck databases and threats posed by world war wrecks containing oil and other hazardous materials that could spill. This book evaluates these materials and presents new analyses and investigations with modern technology that assist in locating, documenting, and remediating polluting wreck sites. Consequently, this volume calls for increased ocean exploration missions to locate sunken merchant vessels that may pose pollution hazards and site assessments to determine any potential risks. This book is of interest to government officials, educators, archaeologists and practitioners working in the field of underwater archaeology. This is an open access book.

Book Synopsis Assessing the Management Practices of Historic Wreck Sites Containing Human Remains: USS Monitor, H.L. Hunley, USS Arizona, SS Caribsea, and HMT Bedfordshire by : Elise B Carroll
Download or read book Assessing the Management Practices of Historic Wreck Sites Containing Human Remains: USS Monitor, H.L. Hunley, USS Arizona, SS Caribsea, and HMT Bedfordshire written by Elise B Carroll and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 145 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis analyzes the complex practices associated with the management of wreck sites that contain human remains through the comparison of two historic eras of ferrous hulled or clad vessels and the differing management approaches. The research seeks to understand the motivation behind management decisions and ascertain if the decisions are linked to a specific variable, such as public significance or association with a specific historic era. Through the examination of management documents and literature associated with each wreck site, the research will reveal commonalities between five case studies that factor into each management decision.

Download or read book Shipwreck written by Sam Willis and published by Quercus Publishing. This book was released on 2013-12-05 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Shipwrecks have captured our imagination for centuries. Here acclaimed historian Sam Willis traces the astonishing tales of ships that have met with disastrous ends, along with the ensuing acts of courage, moments of sacrifice and episodes of villainy that inevitably occurred in the extreme conditions. Many were freak accidents, and their circumstances so extraordinary that they inspired literature: the ramming of the Essex by a sperm whale was immortalized in Herman Melville's Moby Dick. Some symbolize colossal human tragedy: including the legendary Titanic whose maiden voyage famously went from pleasure cruise to epic catastrophe. From the Kyrenia ship of 300 BC to the Mary Rose, through to the Kursk submarine tragedy of 2000, this is a thrilling work of narrative history from one of our most talented young historians.

Book Synopsis The Protection of the Underwater Cultural Heritage by : Roberta Garabello
Download or read book The Protection of the Underwater Cultural Heritage written by Roberta Garabello and published by Martinus Nijhoff Publishers. This book was released on 2003-01-01 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 2001 UNESCO Convention on the Protection of the Underwater Cultural Heritage represents a major step forward in the field of international law. New archaeological rules as well as a comprehensive co-operation system among the States concerned are set up by the new Convention. Despite the negative attitude assumed by few States at the moment of voting for the text of the Convention, this new international instrument is welcome by the great majority of States. This volume focuses on the main aspects of the Convention. It is divided in two parts, to describe the situation before and after the adoption (and the forthcoming into force) of the Convention. In the first part the contradictions resulting from the regime established under the 1982 United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea are analysed together with the undesirable results of the application of the rules of admiralty (law of salvage and law of finds) to the underwater cultural heritage. In the second part the negotiation process is described, both in its general aspects (the myths surrounding the draft) and in its specific results (the drafting of each single provision).
