Science Channel@thesciencechannelThis could be the oldest shipwreck ever found.
On the seabed off Kekova, Turkey, archaeologists found the cargo of a ship tentatively dated to around 4,500 years ago. The wooden hull is long gone, but its clay storage jars remain, some still holding residue. If the date holds, it beats the previous record by about 300 years. The findings haven’t been peer-reviewed yet.
