Marine and Aquatic Sciences Archaeology

Marine and Aquatic Sciences Archaeology is the study of past human activity in aquatic environments, such as oceans, seas, and rivers, from prehistoric times to the present day. It is a multidisciplinary field that combines archaeological methods with scientific techniques to analyze artifacts and evidence left behind by ancient peoples. By identifying these artifacts, Marine and Aquatic Sciences Archaeologists can gain insights into ancient cultures and the environment of the past. They also use the data to inform and inform policy makers on the use and preservation of maritime resources. Understanding the past helps us better understand and manage the present and future of our oceans, seas, and rivers.
