Submerged Antiquities

25 May 2011

The sea never ceases to reveal its deep-sunken secrets to humanity. The BA Antiquities Museum is now showing a documentary on the sunken treasures discovered off the shores of Alexandria. The film gives an account of the discovery sites, the events that led to the sinking, and the various restoration phases that preceded the display of such treasures in the Museum. The documentary also traces sunken antiquities around the world.
