Abstract

In 2017 the deep water research was carried out with the state of the art vessel “Havila Subsea”. By 6 m vibrocorer were taken 16 cores and by 18 m piston corer were taken another four. In total in 2016 and 2017 a coring program at 92 locations was accomplished resulting in 394 m of core samples (fig. 1). In 2017 23 shipwrecks were studied by ROVs to a maximal depth of 2111 m (fig. 2). Among the most important discoveries is the Ancient Greek shipwreck dated to the late 5th c. BC (fig. 3), the three Roman wrecks dated to 1st–4th c. and the Early Byzantine one dated to the 5th–6th c. During 2015–2017 MAP Black Sea project discovered and studied 61 shipwrecks presenting examples of vessels from all historical ages: form the time of the Early Classical Greek period up to the 19th c. Most of them have a very high degree of conservation of wooden hulls, making the Black Sea one of the most promising areas for researches on the history of ship building and seafaring of the Old world
