Artefacts
Excavation soon revealed an impressive array of artefacts. Bronze, pewter and pottery were particularly common finds. Almost intact pottery jugs were recovered, these are black in colour but would once have been bright blues and greens. These finds all began to point to a Mediterranean origin for the Yarmouth Roads Wreck. Other finds recovered from the site include a bone comb, a bronze pestle and a rare bronze cannon which is now on display at the Underwater Archaeology Centre, Fort Victoria.
