Archaeological findings [ edit ]
In June 2019, archaeologists from the Greek culture ministry's Ephorate of Underwater Antiquities department discovered five 2000-year-old shipwrecks at the bottom of the sea near the Levitha island.[7] [8] amphorae dating back to the 3rd B.C were found. The amphorae were used during the era of the Ptolemaic Kingdom as a container for transporting goods such as wine . Archaeologists assumed that 400 kg weighted anchor pole was used on a “colossal-sized ship”.[9] [10] [11] [12] [13] [14] [15] [16]
