An underwater excavation of a 2,500-year-old shipwreck off the coast of Sicily has unveiled prehistoric tools and anchors, providing evidence of the trade between Italy and Greece.
The shipwreck, believed to date back to the fifth or sixth century B.C., was discovered near Ragusa, a city in southeast Sicily, Italy.
The Superintendence of the Sea (SopMare), a Sicilian governmental organization responsible for protecting ancient artifacts in sea waters, shared the news of the discovery on December 9.
