Hi I’m Symone Johnson, and I love everything about the ocean. But sometimes I forget that the ocean is not just the home to dolphins and jellyfish, whales and sharks, it’s also a museum where stories about life on the sea, not recorded in the books, are uncovered.
Maritime archaeology is the study of past human cultures, with an emphasis on how humans interacted with the world's ocean, lakes and rivers.
