Beach prospectors have uncovered rare, 366-year-old pieces of ammunition believed to have been carried ashore by the missing survivors of a 1656 shipwreck.
The "bolo" musket balls, found on a West Australian beach, provide a clue to historians about where 68 people may have made camp before they mysteriously vanished.
On April 28, 1656, the Dutch East India ship Vergulde Draeck, known as the Gilt Dragon, struck a reef and sunk 70 kilometres north of where Perth is today.
