Bass (1932-2021), who pioneered the science of archaeological excavation under water. INA archaeologists are responsible for the excavation of sites that include the Late Bronze Age shipwreck at Uluburun, Turkey, the Phoenician shipwreck at Bajo de la Campana, Spain, the Byzantine shipwreck at Yassıada, Turkey, the side-wheel steamboat Heroine in Oklahoma’s Red River, and the Civil War blockade runner Denbigh in Texas, to name a few. The broad scope of what we do involves remote sensing, underwater excavation, digital recording, decompression diving, artifact conservation, scientific analysis, and lots and lots of research. INA is affiliated with the graduate Nautical Archaeology Program (NAP) at Texas A&M University; many INA research associates are NAP graduates. INA also operates a research center and artifact conservation facility in Bodrum, Turkey. 2021-07-15 10:49:44 ina
