In 2009 a team of marine archeologists carrying out a sonar survey of the seabed around the remote Italian island of Ventotene made an astonishing discovery. The wrecks of five ancient Roman ships were found in pristine condition, each one fully laden with exotic goods.

What happened to these ancient ships? What were they carrying and why had they traveled to this remote, rocky island in the first place? This summer (June 2010), the team is returning to Ventotene to investigate the wrecks, with the blessing of the Italian government. The island where this 'graveyard' of ships was found holds... Less
