Divers recover 275 artifacts, including ‘remarkable’ book, from Arctic shipwreck

Hundreds of artifacts, including serving dishes and a leather book, were recovered from a shipwreck settled on a shallow seabed off the coast of northern Canada.

Earlier this year, archaeologists set up camp on the ice above the wreck of HMS Erebus, a wooden vessel abandoned by its crew in 1848 during an Arctic expedition, according to a news release from the Canadian government.

Multiple diving expeditions have taken place at the wreck site, discovered in 2014, according to the Canadian parks department.
