The 2001 Convention offers an opportunity for countries to cooperate in protecting underwater cultural heritage wherever it is located in the open seas. Without international cooperation, our common legacy continues to be at risk.]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[A shipwreck is like a book from the past, waiting to be opened and interpreted for the enjoyment of all humanity. Each object has an important story to tell, which can only be read if its location relative to other objects in the wreck is scientifically analyzed. Indiscriminate excavation displaces objects, preventing us to read the secrets each item wish to divulge. So, let us preserve them in situ until we have adequate resources to discover their secrets.]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[For the first time in the history of South West Coast of India, a variety of archaeological evidence for the long distance maritime exchanges was unearthed at Pattanam (N. Lat. 10Â° 09.434â€™; E Long 76Â° 12.587â€™). The ca 4 m thick cultural\ deposit of Pattanam may be defined into five cultural periods spanning three millennia since 1000 BCE. Four seasons of excavations by KCHR, in about 650 sq. m dug up area, produced 39,846 antiquities and about three million (29,83178) pottery sherds. The excavations also revealed remains of brick architecture -  warehouse, wharf/jetty and residential/industrial structures, wooden canoe and a plethora of biological remains.  The poster illustrates the major finds and cross cultural connections suggesting Pattanam could be part of the legendary port of Muziris.<br />

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[This poster deals with the known Manila Galleons found to date. Unfortunately treasure hunters have salvaged most of them and little information if any is accessible to researchers. However, archaeological projects are currently active on sites regarding such ships. The Archaeology of Manila Galleons has the potential to understand diverse aspects of the exchange and interaction that took place between Asia and the Spanish Empire, as well as to shed light on the ships themselves, which were built in the Philippines to Spanish shipwright traditions and remain a mystery in many ways.]]></dcterms:description>
