Prof. Timmy Gambin from the University of Malta's Department of Classics and Archaeology has recently returned from Taranto, where he attended the International Underwater Archaeology Symposium organised by Italy's national Superintendence of the Sea. This event was organised to celebrate the 20th anniversary of UNESCO's Convention for the Protection of Underwater Cultural Heritage. He was invited to present the University of Malta's research project on the Phoenician shipwreck off Gozo. In the context of the UNESCO convention, the Phoenician shipwreck project is considered to be a prime example of 'best practice' with regard to deep water archaeological sites.
