The Cyprus Underwater Archaeological Fieldschool 2016 is taught by Nautical Archaeological Society (NAS) and University of Cyprus staff. It includes underwater excavation, surveying, photography, artefact illustration and post-fieldwork artefact handling. The Mazotos wreck lies in 45m depth 14 miles south-west of Larnaca. Its cargo consists mainly of Chian amphoras and has been provisionally dated to the 3rd quarter of the 4th century BC.
The actual fieldschool is two weeks (20.8.-3.9.2016). After that there is two weeks of work on the Mazotos wreck. This blog will contain Teemu's remarks during this time.
