In 2017, CINDAQ's dive team found evidence of ancient mining activity while exploring and mapping new tunnels of an underwater cave near Akumal, Quintana Roo, Mexico. The Maya are known to have actively mined pigment and other minerals from the caves of the Yucatan Peninsula, but the ancient mines discovered by the CINDAQ team are now submerged, indicating that such mineral exploitation occurred thousands of years ago. At the end of the last Ice Age, intrepid miners ventured deep into these tunnels with torches in hand. The navigational markers, mining debris, fire pits and excavation pits they left behind are now entirely underwater. In coordination with INAH-SAS, CINDAQ's team performed more than 100 dives, totaling nearly 600 diver hours underwater to create a detailed map of the site. An additional 100 diver hours were dedicated to acquiring the nearly 18,000 images used for the 3D photogrammetric models, which are enabling researchers to “virtually” access and study this remote subterranean mining complex. The results were published in 2020 in Science Advances.

The reconstructed archaeological site of Bizeux presents an 18th century privateer wreck. We discover in scuba diving or in apnea, five guns, two arranged in ballast, three arranged in battery for defensive fire; a jas anchor. This reconstructed archaeological site with real artefacts is open to all audiences. It allows direct contact with the historical submerged Breton heritage for all audiences who master swimming.

We support organisations from around the world in teaching best practices in underwater cultural heritage through our International Training Partner Programme. These organisations have a licence to teach a local version of our accredited training programme which has a core module on UCH legislation including information about the 2001 Convention. There are currently 25 organisations in this programme and 7 of them are from countries that have ratified the 2001 Convention.

The Ministry of Defence (MOD) has multiple historic shipwrecks in UK waters and little is known about the condition of many of these wreck sites. Consequently, the Nautical Archaeology Society (NAS) carried out a programme of non-intrusive condition assessments using the HMS Natal in the Cromarty Firth, Scotland as a pilot project. The condition assessments for all future wrecks will follow the same format, using a pro-forma to ensure that there will be consistency in assessment and ongoing monitoring to determine the condition of the wrecks over time. The assessment will highlight such aspects as the collapse or otherwise of the structure, obvious examples of environmental pollution, anchor and fishing net damage and any salvage or collection of artefacts that has previously occurred.

Chesil Beach Protected Wrecks Community Archaeology Project In 2019 the Nautical Archaeology Society (NAS) and the Maritime Archaeology Trust (MAT) ran training activities and series of public events based around the Chesil Beach protected wrecks off the coast of Weymouth. Activities were held in conjunction with the local licensee(s), to create a team of local wreck custodians. By upskilling local community members, including divers, the wrecks will be respected and further investigated.

One of the major aims of the Nautical Archaeology Society (NAS) is to provide divers access to Protected Wrecks and by doing so, fostering a sense of custodianship of underwater cultural heritage. Several times each year, the NAS runs Protected Wreck Days allowing qualified divers to have an extraordinary experience visiting and learning about the UK's protected wrecks. Not only do the divers get to visit sites that require a licence to visit, they also receive a thorough dive briefing and archaeological site briefing before each dive so that they will know what to look out for and will have an understanding of the underwater site and it's place in history. We offer two Protected Wreck Day experiences. Based out of Eastbourne, Sussex, we take divers to the Norman's Bay Wreck (c.1690) and the Holland No.5 submarine (sank 1912). The Portsmouth based experience in Hampshire goes to the protected wrecks of HMS Invincible (sank 1758) and the A1 Submarine (sank 1911). These are definitely experiences for people who are interested in 'Diving for a Purpose'.

SARCC will mainstream nature-based solutions (NBS) into coastal management and policy making, where they are integrated into existing grey infrastructure and flood defences. The project builds the capacity of urban leaders, decision-makers and officers involved in coastal flood defences to deploy NBS and understand the additional benefits that they offer in comparison to traditional grey infrastructure. The project area ranges from Cornwal in southwest England, to the Flemish coastline. MAT are assessing the under-used archaeological, historical and palaeo-environmental information as data sources to provide insights into the impact of human activities along the coastline from the early Holocene to the mid-20th century. Analysis of the material is demonstrating long-term patterns of coastal change . This knowledge is providing a positive contribution to the coastal management, decision making process and to raise stakeholder awareness. It will be particularly valuable where nature based solutions are to be reinstated and there is a desire to work in tandem with long term natural processes rather than in opposition. The outputs will contribute to the UN Decade of Ocean Science and Sustainable development and the UN sustainable development goals 11, 13 and 14.

The Discover Maritime Archaeology eLearning course is the entry level to the Nautical Archaeology Society's Education Programme. No prior knowledge or training is required to complete this course. This online course allows people to learn the basic theory of maritime archaeology at their own pace. It demonstrates to participants that maritime archaeology is not just about shipwrecks, and it is certainly not all underwater. The six modules in this course cover the following topics: introduction to maritime archaeology, site types, artefact investigation, legislation and recording and monitoring sites. The legislation module outlines the mechanisms that are in place to protect our heritage that is underwater, on the foreshore and on land. Participants will learn how this applies to visiting or investigating historic sites. There is a particular emphasis on promoting the UNESCO 2001 Convention on the Protection of the Underwater Cultural Heritage. This theory course and accompanying practical Recorder Skills Day is the first of the two components of the NAS Foundation qualification, which will allow graduates to participate in NAS fieldwork in the UK and overseas.
