Alkedo on display in the Museum of Ancient Ships
History
Name Alkedo
Status Museum exhibit
General characteristics
Length 22 m (72 ft )
Alkedo is a preserved Roman shipwreck that sank in the 1st century AD,[1] and was discovered during a construction project in Pisa , Italy .
Excavation
[ edit ]
In 1998 construction began on a control center for the Rome-Genoa train line next to Pisa San Rossore . During the project, a series of shipwrecks numbering about thirty were discovered, including Alkedo .[2]
Characteristics
[ edit ]
Replica of Alkedo at the Museum of Ancient Ships
Constructed of holm oak and pine , with an insert in the bow made of oak , it was rowed by twelve oarsmen , and used as a pleasure craft.[a] [1] [4] The ship's nearly intact hull has been preserved well enough to make out the inscription on a tablet nailed to one of the rower's benches; the inscription states the five letters that make up the word "ALK (E ) DO". Translated from Latin to mean "seagull", which is thought to be the name of the ship.[1] [3] Traces of red and white were visible on the external sides of the ship during its excavation, which indicates it was once painted.[1] It is displayed next to a full size replica in the Museum of Ancient Ships in Pisa, Italy.[2]
