https://moas.atlantia.sca.org/archive/wsnlinks en-us For almost a millennium , a modest wooden ship lay underwater off the coast of Serce Limani, Turkey, filled with evidence of trade and objects of daily life. The ship trafficked in both the Byzantine and Islamic worlds of its time. The ship is known as "the Glass Wreck" because its cargo included three metric tons of glass cullet, including broken Islamic vessels, and eighty pieces of intact glassware. In addition, it held glazed Islamic bowls, red-ware cooking vessels, copper cauldrons and buckets, wine amphoras, weapons, tools, jewelry, fishing gear, remnants of meals, coins, scales and weights, and more. This first volume of the complete site report introduces the discovery, the methods of its excavation , and the conservati on of its artifacts. Chapters cover the details of the ship, its contents, the probable personal possession s of the crew, and the picture of daily shipboard life that can be drawn from the discoverie s. https://www.researchgate.net/publication/286517502_Serce_Limani_An_Eleventh-Century_Shipwreck Wed, 04 Jul 2007 17:54:27 GMT https://moas.atlantia.sca.org/archive/wsnlinks/link.php?action=detail&id=15220 https://moas.atlantia.sca.org/archive/wsnlinks/comments.php?id=15220 The most prized and lauded weapon, but not the most common one, was the sword. http://www.regia.org/sword.htm Tue, 08 Aug 2006 18:33:08 GMT https://moas.atlantia.sca.org/archive/wsnlinks/link.php?action=detail&id=13375 https://moas.atlantia.sca.org/archive/wsnlinks/comments.php?id=13375 Waterford is Irelands oldest city, founded by Viking raiders in 914 A.D.
