No government should be able to lay claim to something lost in a wreck 400 years ago. I know they do, but it’s pure greed and power... which they accuse treasure hunters of.

Can you claim it on the basis of who the ship belonged to? I thought it was only on the basis of whose territorial waters it was in?
