The Black Sea Maritime Archaeology project says it found the wreck in oxygen-free conditions that preserved its components. Its design has previously been seen only on the side of ancient Greek pottery. The ship was found lying whole with its mast, rudders, and rowing in a “shipwreck graveyard’ that has already revealed over 60 other vessels.

Assumed to be a Greek trading vessel, the ship was so well preserved because it was buried deep in the Black Sea in anoxic (oxygen-deprived) water. Without oxygen corroding the wooden hull, the ship has remained more or less the same since it sank around 400 BCE. Off the coast of Bulgaria, more than a mile beneath the surface of the Black Sea, a team of maritime archaeologists, scientists and surveyors has discovered what could be the world’s oldest intact shipwreck – a 75-foot-long Greek trading vessel carbon-dated to more than 2,400 years ago. T he vessel was one of many trading ships which made regular trips to supply Greek colonies on the Black Sea coast. It was discovered more than 50 miles off the Bulgarian city of Burgas. The BBC reports on an amazing find in the Black Sea — a 2,400-year-old Greek trading vessel, found intact, at the bottom of the sea floor. The Black Sea is a largely anoxic environment because the upper and lower water layers do not mix. Measuring some 75 feet (23 meters) long, the ship is thought to be an ancient Greek trading vessel. With its mast still standing, and its rudders and rowing benches still in place, it has lain undisturbed on the ocean floor for more than 2,400 years.

Measuring some 75 feet (23 meters) long, the ship is thought to be an ancient Greek trading vessel. With its mast still standing, and its rudders and rowing benches still in place, it has lain undisturbed on the ocean floor for more than 2,400 years. Oldest intact shipwreck known to humanity found in Black Sea. The trading ship, previously only seen in an intact state on the side of ancient Greek pottery, was dated back to 400BC. The vessel was one of many tracking between the Mediterranean and Greek colonies on the Black Sea coast. It was discovered more than 80km off the Bulgarian city of Burgas. So not much has happened to the ancient Greek trading ship as it has rested on its side in the anoxic darkness 2,000m (1.2 miles) below the surface, even as two and a half millennia of history passed in the world above. The ship was a Greek trading vessel, of a type that was previously only known from depictions on the sides of ancient pieces of pottery – these include the Siren Vase, which is on display at the British Museum. For three years, an international team of scientists surveyed the floor of the Black Sea, off the coast of Bulgaria. The roughly 75-foot-vessel, found about 50 miles off the coast of Bulgaria, dates back to roughly 400 BC — when the Black Sea was dotted with trading colonies tied to various Greek city-states such as Athens and Sparta. The Black Sea Maritime Archaeology Project announced the discovery of an ancient Greek trading vessel off the coast of Bulgaria at a depth of 1.2 miles. Their experts spent three years surveying
