World Trade Center Ship Discovery in NY Times blog

The New York Times Sunday Sept. 12 “City Room” blog detailed this summer’s analysis of the remains of an 18th century ship, discovered in a New York City landfill near the World Trade Center site.  UMaine marine archaeologist Warren Riess has been one of the lead researchers working to determine the origin of that wreckage, based on a 32-foot section that was recently unearthed.  The blog entry, written by David Duncan, features several comments from Riess.
