00:00
In 1980, during maintenance work on a drainage canal in Comacchio, a town in northern Italy,
00:06
workers made an incredible discovery.
00:09
The remains of an ancient Roman ship, this shipwreck dating back to around 1 BC, had
00:15
been buried for centuries beneath layers of mud and earth.
00:18
It turned out to be a Roman merchant vessel carrying its cargo.
00:22
The ship was loaded with valuable goods, including wine, oil lamps, and other everyday trade items.
00:29
These items were commonly traded across the Roman Empire, which stretched across large
00:34
parts of Europe, North Africa, and the Middle East.
00:37
What makes this discovery so important is that it gives historians a rare and detailed look
00:43
at Roman trade and seafaring life.
00:45
The way the ship was built shows the advanced shipbuilding technique of the Romans.
00:50
It also helps us understand how goods were transported, what peoples traded, and how connected different
00:56
parts of the Empire were through sea routes.
01:00
This shipwreck is one of the best-preserved examples of Roman commercial shipping.
01:04
It acts like a time capsule, giving us insights into the daily life, economy, and engineering
01:10
skills of one of the greatest civilizations in history.
