Nautical Archaeology Society. The NAS offers many different opportunities for you to get involved with the maritime heritage that surrounds us.
From providing you with the skills to join a project or carry out a project of your own, to volunteering and conferences where you can hear speakers from around the world discussing the latest discoveries and innovations in maritime archaeology, to publishing in a world renowned journal there are many options to get involved. Whether you have a passion for the subject, work in maritime archaeology or are just interested in finding out a little bit more there is something for everyone and age is no boundary. Remember discovery is just the beginning... Follow the links below, explore our website or contact us at the NAS Office to find out how you can get involved today. Training - Learn more about maritime archaeology, what to expect from maritime sites, how to record them and get more involved in archaeological projects.
What is the NAS Training Programme? The NAS International Training Programme has been delivering courses in nautical archaeology for over 25 years.
The programme aims to provide not just an introduction to the subject but also to offer people a chance to build their skills and experience, allowing them to take part in projects and fieldwork around the world and perhaps to run their own projects. Maritime Archaeology Trust Maritime Archaeology Trust, HWTMA Volunteering. The Maritime Archaeology Trust values highly the contribution of volunteers.
We have a group of individuals who volunteer with us by regularly, coming into our offices to help with project work and also (where appropriately qualified) help with diving and foreshore projects. Unfortunately, it is not always possible for us to accommodate volunteers though we do our best to do so within the projects that we have running. Get the latest volunteering opportunities delivered to your inbox We would love to let you know about our current volunteering opportunities.

The Illicit Antiquities Trade as a Transnational Criminal Network: Characterizing and Anticipating Trafficking of Cultural Heritage. To be worth US$2.2 billion annually; however, the financial scope of the illicittrade is ultimately unknowable as black market statistics are notoriously diffi-cult to ascertain.
A precise characterization of the trade has arguably eludedresearchers since the observable aspects of antiquities trafficking have proved tobe incredibly variable. This article argues that the illicit antiquities trade is orga-nized as a network similar to other trafficking, where loosely connected andinterchangeable participants give the appearance of complexity; however, par-ticipants are guided by simple rules that provide an identifiable underlying struc-ture. This research focuses specifically on trafficking, defined as transnationalmovement of illicit commodities, rather than local or indigenous looting as afunction of engagement with the past, which exhibits its own structure.

You are walking in a field and your toe strikes something metal and gold. Map of Designated Sites in UK. Map of Designated Sites in UK. Marine Historic Environment. The seas around England contain an immense wealth of archaeological sites and remains.
As a country that has experienced successive waves of settlement over many centuries and as a major mercantile, naval, industrial and imperial power, the history of England and the experience of many of its inhabitants has been inextricably linked to its surrounding seas. Maritime archaeology comprises the study of the evidence of all past human activity related to the sea around our shores. The maritime resource includes prehistoric sites that were once land, other coastal features such as early fish-traps, submerged structures from defending our coast in the World Wars, and shipwrecks from all ages. Submerged prehistoric sites might be the seabed deposits themselves, which are known to contain in-situ Palaeolithic deposits or artefacts dating back 700,000 years, relating to periods during the many cycles of Ice Age activity when large areas of our present seabed was dry land.

UNESCO Focuses on Protection of the Underwater Cultural Heritage. July 28th, 2014 -- Former Director of Fisheries on Nevis and active marine conservationist, Emile Lemuel Pemberton, represented the Federation at a Steering committee Meeting on the Protection of Underwater Cultural Heritage held July 14-18 in Nassau Bahamas.
The United Nations Education, Scientific and Cultural Organisation (UNESCO) led meeting brought together a cadre of specialists and stakeholders including Government officials, Directors of Culture, historians and archaeologists from Latin America and the Caribbean. International Experts were also among participants who addressed issues regarding the protection and research of underwater or submerged heritage. Seafloor Explorer Game. Be a Seafloor Explorer and run your own marine research project by playing our online game.
Discover the different fieldwork techniques used by geologists, ecologists and archaeologists to explore the seafloor, and have a go yourself. It is your task to make sure the work is done correctly, on time and to budget. Remember it is a difficult job and your performance as a Seafloor Explorer will be rated – so are you an expert scientist or still learning the ropes? Seafloor Explorer Game. Studying Shipwrecks - Dave Parham, University of Bournemouth. Dave Parham, University of Bournemouth Part of the show Underwater Archaeology and Underwater Welding Diana - Shipwrecks are often described as underwater time capsules.
They can give us a snapshot in time from the bygone years, glimpses into military life, trading relations between countries, social life, and construction techniques.

Diagram of a mortise (on left) and tenon joint Through-wedged tenons used on a French granary. 1) Through tenon and 2) mortise as a shouldered joint The mortise[1] and tenon joint has been used for thousands of years by woodworkers around the world to join pieces of wood, mainly when the adjoining pieces connect at an angle of 90°. In its basic form it is both simple and strong. Although there are many joint variations, the basic mortise and tenon comprises two components: the mortise hole and the tenon tongue.
This joint is also used with other materials. Types[edit] A mortise is a cavity cut into a timber to receive a tenon. Open mortise a mortise that has only three sides. Depth sounding. Depth sounding refers to the act of measuring depth; it is often referred to simply as sounding. Sounding is finding the depth of a given point in a body of water. Data taken from soundings are used in bathymetry to make maps of the floor of a body of water,[1] and were traditionally shown on nautical charts in fathoms and feet.
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), the agency responsible for bathymetric data in the United States, still uses fathoms and feet on nautical charts. Cuneiform. Emerging in Sumer in the late 4th millennium BC (the Uruk IV period), cuneiform writing began as a system of pictographs. In the third millennium, the pictorial representations became simplified and more abstract as the number of characters in use grew smaller, from about 1,000 in the Early Bronze Age to about 400 in Late Bronze Age (Hittite cuneiform). The system consists of a combination of logophonetic, consonantal alphabetic and syllabic signs.[2] The original Sumerian script was adapted for the writing of the Akkadian, Eblaite, Elamite, Hittite, Luwian, Hattic, Hurrian, and Urartian languages, and it inspired the Ugaritic and Old Persian alphabets.
Cuneiform writing was gradually replaced by the Phoenician alphabet during the Neo-Assyrian Empire. By the 2nd century AD, the script had become extinct, and all knowledge of how to read it was lost until it began to be deciphered in the 19th century. History[edit] Proto-literate period[edit] Archaic cuneiform[edit] Akkadian cuneiform[edit] Aegean Sea. The Aegean Sea (/ɨˈdʒiːən/; Greek: Αιγαίο Πέλαγος [eˈʝeo ˈpelaɣos] ( ); Turkish: Ege Denizi or Adalar Denizi[2]) is an elongated embayment of the Mediterranean Sea located between the Greek and Anatolian peninsulas, i.e., between the mainlands of Greece and Turkey. In the north, it is connected to the Marmara Sea and Black Sea by the Dardanelles and Bosporus. Dunnage.
