“The oldest sunken vessel is about 1,500 years old and they have all seen the destructive power of the nature until now... “
The nature can be pretty powerful.
Veddddddy intedesting!
Just a bunch of derelicts! lol! There are a few in every harbor.
During my sentence in Turkey, I learned they still weight-test equipment in the shipyards the same way they did when these ancient ships were built - with people. While the rest of the modern world uses cement or bags of sand, the Turkish shipyards were still using little Mohammeds for both static and dynamic weight testing. Apparently, they’re cheaper than cement and the relatives don’t complain when they’re threatened.
