#CLST6 Lets take a DIVE 🤿 into maritime archaeology and ecology 🌊🐠🦀. For my #CYO2 on #ArchMethods, I listened to a riveting discussion from @ArchandAnthPod with Chanelle Zaphiropoulos ( @sharksandwrecks), a MA candidate/scuba-enthusiast from the Univ. of Malta ( @UMmalta) /1

Chanelle’s work lies at the intersection of biology/archaeology/ethics--& as global climate change occurs & weather patterns/seabed topography/sea levels rapidly shift, salvage archaeology & collecting/measuring/comparing marine ecology data are more crucial than ever /2

Archaeology + Social Activism:

Coastal archaeological sites under threat from rising sea levels hold vital clues to past land ownership. Chanelle (w/ the help of volunteers) studies/preserves them after natural disasters in Newfoundland, her home (Algonquin Anishnaabeg land)✊/3

These disappearing sites serve as phys. evidence of historical ownership in land reclamation court cases, affecting 1000s of indigenous Canadians. Well done, Chanelle.

Ms. “Zap” also collabs w/ the Shipwreck Preservation Soc. of Newfoundland & Labrador. Let’s 👀 @ her methods /4

Context measurements & diverse relationship data--comparing wreckage fields based on location, observing meteorological patterns, listening in on folk/fishermans’ tales--can be used in conjunction w/ mathematical algorithms to predict shipwreck locations! And it has worked! /5

Shipwrecks are pop. 🏠’s 4 sponges/coral/hard shelled invertebrates b/c they provide a durable substrate on which to grow. They also give a definitive terminus post quem for these organisms--a concrete metric by which to measure depth/pressure/temperature Δ’s effect on growth /6

B/c of this, Chanelle views marine ecosystems on historical watercrafts as #major🔑 ‘s in predicting growth patterns of natural reefs

The ways in which nature reclaims human cltre is fascinating--& Chanelle is writing her Master’s thesis on how it transformed the HMS Olympus /7

Studying the HMS Olympus--a N35 Odin-class #WWII #submarine which sank off Malta's coast in 1942--presents several ethical dilemmas

Firstly, it’s a military grave of 89 men. Secondly, its artifacts+structure are now a living, breathing home to 100s of diff. marine species /8

Chanelle doesn’t think it shld be resurfaced--and I agree.

New advancements in Low Visibility Diving tech like Compressed High-Intensity Radar Pulses (CHIRP) & USBL Positioning Systems make artifacts/wrecks possible to study w/o disturbing or damaging the natural environment. /9

We’ve also got better Remotely Operated Underwater Veh.’s (ROVs)+Autonomous Underwater Veh.’s (AUVs). Marine archaeologists (not all expert divers) can now safely+actively participate in excavations

Fortunately for CZ, diving has been a passion since her kitty-pool days 😂 /10

Strong-willed & gritty, Chanelle remarks on her ongoing struggle in a male-dominated diving realm. Although shorter than her peers, a background of ballet & musical theatre (aerobic exercises) allows her to excel in performing cmplx maneuvers w/ hvy. equipment under💧 👏 🙌 /11
But alas! During her dives, Chanelle has faced the age old nemesis of every archaeologist, terra aut mare: 😨 🤢.

Across the Mediterranean, shallow & easy-to-access wrecks have been scavenged for the ultimate “prizes:” rare art+precious metal objects. But here’s the issue⬇️/12

Looters create environmental destruction by dislodging new parts of rusting (corrosive) ships into the sea+damage coral reef ecosystems-major carbon sinks w/ a cascading upwards effect-when they improperly remove artifacts. Plus, the artifacts themselves🪙💣
⌛can be harmed /13
CZ goes through a cmplx desalinization+demoisturizing process w/ every artifact she finds.

Fragile artifacts like glass vessels can burst w/ pressure changes & require expert salvaging. On war wrecks, UXBs can still be live, detonating w/ the slightest movement 😱 💥/14
Ms. Z’s combination of archaeological inquiry w/ ecological & ethical questions, non-invasive approaches, has led her to emerge as a leading voice in marine archaeology. It’s inspiring to me, as someone who’s interest in the field started by the sea. Here are some pics /15

I’ve scoured the tidal mudflats & riverbeds of New England for signs of the past. I’ve found pocket watches, hotel tokens, coins, military paraphernalia, glass marbles, and over 2k antique bottles (nearly all pre-1900). I always remove trash/debris when I go mudlarking too /16

Why CHIRP Sonar is a Necessity - Garmin Blog

Time and time again, people have said that CHIRP sonar technology is only useful in deep water, but that’s an easy myth to debunk and here's why. Garmin
