This list of archaeological sites beyond national boundaries presents archaeological sites that are not in any country. This includes sites in international waters[1] and international territories such as Antarctica[2][3] and extraterrestrial sites.[4]
Site | Location | Nature | Status |
---|---|---|---|
Hektor Station[5] | Deception Island, Antarctica | Whaling station | |
The Titanic Wreck | off Newfoundland | Twentieth-century shipwreck | The ship is broken in two, with some remains scattered. Some looting has taken place. |

Most of the hull of the ship is now gone, but the rudder, parts of the paddle wheel and the steam engine are still present. |
