意大利潜水员在西西里岛Mazara del Vallo附近海域发现一艘古罗马沉船,距今约2100年[1][2]。这艘沉船位于海深46米处[1][2],船体长21米、宽6米[1][2],船上装载着数百个保存完好的陶制双耳瓶,主要用于运输葡萄酒和橄榄油[1][2]。意大利文化部长Alessandro Giuli称其为"近年来最重要的水下考古发现之一"[1][2]。
渔民Giacomo De Mola发现了这艘沉船,表示这是"我人生中最不可思议的发现"[1][2]。根据船上陶罐的型号特征,该沉船可追溯至公元前二至一世纪[1][2]。
Italian divers have uncovered a Roman-era vessel off the coast of Sicily, near Mazara del Vallo, containing hundreds of well-preserved amphorae used to transport wine and olive oil.[1][2] The wreck, located approximately 46 meters below the surface, dates back to the 2nd or 1st century BCE, making it roughly 2,100 years old.[1][2] The vessel measures 21 meters in length and 6 meters in width.[1][2]
The discovery was made by professional police divers following a report from local fisherman Giacomo De Mola, who described the find as "undoubtedly the most incredible discovery of my life."[1][2] The amphorae recovered from the site are primarily Dressel 1A type vessels, which were commonly used in antiquity for shipping wine across the Mediterranean.[2] Italian Culture Minister Alessandro Giuli praised the discovery as "one of the most important underwater archaeological finds in recent years."[1][2]
