Summary Geodatabase of Shipwrecks Down to 1500, Status 2020.

This layer includes data from the following publications:
1) J. Strauss, A. I. Wilson, M. Flohr (2017). OxREP Shipwrecks Database. Version 2.1.
Accessed March 2017. Data assembled by Dr. Julia Strauss, “Shipwrecks Database,” coordinated by Andrew Wilson, in The Oxford Roman Economy Project, based on Dr. Strauss’ Ph.D. dissertation “Roman Cargoes: Underwater Evidence from the East”(London 2007) and further updated by Andrew Wilson. MAPS gratefully acknowledges the gracious collaboration of our Oxford Roman Economy Project colleagues. The Oxford materials have been synthesized with the Harvard materials to the extent feasible; any errors arising from that process are the responsibility of the MAPS team. Where the two projects yielded divergent information, e.g., in summary descriptions of cargoes, that divergent information has been noted accordingly.

Data assembled by Alexander F. More, Michael McCormick et al. This summary database provides basic geographic and archaeological information on shipwrecks documented by A.J. Parker 1992 and subsequent publications. The geodatabase includes, where available, concise information about main cargoes, ship or wreck distribution sizes, ship gear, and essential bibliography. The user should refer to the original publications for full details. This file represents the state of the geodatabase in July 2013. Our team continues to work toward future updates of the geodatabase of shipwrecks.

Abstract
13
This summary database provides basic geographic and archaeological information on 1935 shipwrecks documented in A.J. Parker 1992 as well as several other subsequent research publications. The geodatabase includes, where available, concise information about main cargoes, ship or wreck distribution sizes, ship gear, and essential bibliography. This version of the geodatabase of shipwrecks merges prior DARMC and OxREP geodatabases into one, and lists the same shipwreck on one row with both Harvard and Oxford data on either side of a Parker number (highlighted in yellow) when available. The user should refer to the original publications for full details. This file represents the state of the geodatabase in July 2021. Our team continues to work toward future updates of the geodatabase of shipwrecks. Additional wrecks, information and corrections will be received gratefully at sohpchair@fas.harvard.edu
