Campo das Cebolas in the Lisbon Riverside between the Eighteenth–Nineteenth Centuries
Lisbon is a city that originated along the River Tagus, one of the largest and most significant rivers traversing the Iberian Peninsula. From prehistory through the Roman era, and particularly during the period of European maritime expansion, this locale has consistently demonstrated its importance to various human groups and civilisations. The River Tagus, owing to its substantial size and the abundance of resources along its banks, has historic…
Assessing the Damage and Remaining Archaeological Potential of Commercially Salvaged Sites at Mozambique Island
In the 15th century, Mozambique Island came to play an important role mediating maritime interactions in the Indian Ocean. The Island’s underwater archaeological heritage reflects this history but has been heavily impacted over the last decades by commercial salvage activity. This situation was assessed in 2014 by the Archaeology and Anthropology Department of Eduardo Mondlane University in cooperation with international partners. This paper focu…
Pascual Ignacio de Apezechea, los miserables operarios y los díscolos empleados del Apartado de Oro
This article addresses the performance of Pascual de Apezechea at the head of the Apartado de Oro of New Spain, as a way of understanding the complex features of work in this institution. Behind the rigid ordinances, it argues, there were clientelist relationships which implied the exchange of loyalties for support. This practice allowed to keep order, but in certain situations serious conflicts emerged. This article shows that major problems did…
Digital Archaeology Underwater

The Ngomeni Shipwreck and Portuguese Indian Route Ships
Metal Objects Were Much Desired
During winter storms in 2014 and 2017, strong waves exposed hundreds of timbers and artefacts at the Belinho beach, in the North of Portugal. These ship remains were later discovered to belong to a 16th-century shipwreck, probably originating from Northern Europe. This paper aims to discuss the importance of cargo analysis through the study of the material culture associated with that site, consisting mainly of hundreds of pewter, brass, lead, ir…

Asimismo, discute la forma en que la Corona procuró mantener un difícil equilib…
The Ribadeo I Shipwreck, Galleon “San Giacomo di Galizia”—From Excavation to Interpretation
The Ribadeo shipwreck, identified as the San Giacomo di Galizia, lost in 1597 at Ribadeo, Galicia, Spain, is a unique example of a late 16th century Spanish warship. Brought to Ribadeo in the winter of 1597, this ship was salvaged, all the crew saved, and its remains abandoned. It was found in November 2011 during dredging operations, and it has been studied since. Excavated slowly at the pace allowed by the conservation budget, this site is reve…
Ballasting a Mid-19th Century Chilean Navy Armed Transport
Ballast is essential for vessels to lower their centre of gravity, improve stability, and ease their motion during sailing. During the modern period, heavy materials used for ballasting ships were an issue of particular concern for both authorities and ship owners, subjected to increasing control, regulation, and standardisation. These items represent a very common find in wreck sites and deserve special attention, as their characteristics, distr…

El Farol indiano de fray Manuel Pérez y los indios “aespañolados” de la ciudad de México
El artículo aborda el Farol Indiano y guía de curas de indios de fray Manuel Pérez, párroco de un barrio de indios en la ciudad de México a inicios del siglo XVIII, para analizar los contrastes que establecía entre la condición, conductas y actitudes de sus feligreses respecto de sus previas experiencias en un remoto pueblo serrano. Estos comentarios interesan porque arrojan luz sobre indios que vivían en estrecho contacto y comunicación con espa…
Revisiting Lomellina , 1516
This paper is a reanalysis of the Lomellina shipwreck (1516), found in 1979 at Villefranche-sur-Mer and excavated between 1982 and 1990, and an attempt at reconstructing the hull shape in light of recent developments in computer graphics and hull reconstruction methodologies. After revising the excavation data, the authors propose a new reconstruction of this unique ship, using off-the-shelf 3D software (Rhinoceros), aiming at understanding its s…
L’astrolabe nautique de Montréal de 1631 et son contexte
L’identification à Montréal d’un astrolabe nautique inconnu des spécialistes a motivé un examen de ces instruments conservés au Canada et en France. L’astrolabe nautique permet la prise d’élévation du soleil ou de l’étoile polaire et, ainsi, le calcul de la latitude où l’on se trouve. Celui de Montréal, fabriqué à Lisbonne en 1631, appartient à la collection historique des pères sulpiciens. Le contexte de son acquisition étant inconnu, ce travail…
Shipwrecks and Storytelling
Shipwreck stories have the potential to attract the attention of a wide public in different ways. Based on the Portuguese situation, of a country with a mythical past connected to the sea but a public policy for maritime archeology that lacks vision, purpose, or strategy and tends to exclude the public, this paper proposes a reflection on the social value of archeology and the potential it has for education and entertainment

Los indios leñadores, madereros y carboneros en la sociedad novohispana
Este artículo aborda el estudio de los indios que proveían de leña, carbón y madera a las ciudades y reales de minas de la Nueva España. Procura demostrar que a pesar de su aparente modestia eran productos muy relevantes, y su ausencia o escasez podía tener serias consecuencias en la vida cotidiana y la buena marcha de varias actividades productivas. El texto describe las características y condiciones en que se realizaba esta labor y argumenta qu…
Unos “empleos públicos de particular confianza”
Este artículo analiza la labor de los ensayadores de las cajas reales de la Nueva España en el periodo en que estuvieron bajo el régimen de venta de cargos públicos. Estos oficiales eran responsables de certificar la ley de la plata y del oro de modo que pudieran emplearse en el comercio, la acuñación de moneda y fuese posible recaudar los correspondientes impuestos. Constituían a la vez un medio de vida para muchas personas y un puesto clave en …
Seeking a common ground for the Nautical Archaeology Digital Library (Nadl). Reflections on science, method, theory and templates
Data sharing is a fundamental process for the advancement of both natural and social sciences. Starting from the idea that computers and the internet have drastically changed the world in the last decades, this paper advocates for the creation of a space where archaeologists from around the world can share information about maritime history and exchange data with colleagues. Following the principles of open access, we argue that raw data publicat…

Outfitting the Pepper Wreck
Rising and Narrowing
Methods of designing the bottom of ship's hulls were only a small part of the process of building a frame-based ship in Portugal in the 16th and early 17th centuries, but they deserve a careful look. Using a number of geometric algorithms that were already well-known to Italian shipwrights of the 15th century, Portuguese shipwrights obtained the co-ordinates of the turn of the bilge points of the central, pre-designed, frames without the need for…
The Pepper Wreck, an early 17th-century Portuguese Indiaman at the mouth of the Tagus River, Portugal
Found in 1993 of the rocks of the fortress São Julião da Barra, at the mouth of the Tagus River, the SJB2 shipwreck—or Pepper Wreck—was tentatively identified as the Portuguese Indiaman Nossa Senhora dos Mártires, lost at this location on its return voyage from Cochin, in India, on 14 September 1606. Its archaeological excavation disclosed a collection of artefacts from the late 16th and the early 17th centuries and allowed the study of the survi…
Recording, Publishing, and Reconstructing Wooden Shipwrecks
Moulds, Graminhos and Ribbands
The survival of late medieval Mediterranean techniques to conceive and build ships and boats in Brazil was noted by John Patrick Sarsfield in the 1980s, but his study of the Valença shipwrights was interrupted by his untimely death in 1990. This paper summarizes Sarsfield's account of these shipbuilding techniques, examines that published by Lev Smarcevski (1996), and provides some preliminary results of the pilot stage of a project to further re…

Its archaeological excavation led to a tentative reconstruction of the hull, based in contemporary texts on shipbuilding. Further analysis of these texts allowed us to propose a reconstruction o…
A Preliminary report of recording the Stella 1 Roman River Barge, Italy
The remains of a Roman barge were found in 1981 in the River Stella, Udine, Italy. Its cargo consisted mainly of roof tiles. It was excavated in 1998 and 1999, and detailed recording of the hull, and a second wooden structure, was achieved in 2011. A spread of material upstream of the wreck has been investigated 2012–2015. The barge was originally dated to the first quarter of the 1st century AD by the in situ cargo. This article describes the bo…

Pathfinders
A Quantitative Look at Mediterranean Lateen- and Square-Rigged Ships (Part 1)
Modern-day engineering can be a useful tool to help understand the technological changes which led to the development of the three-masted ships of the modern age of sail, in the beginning of the 15th century. Recent finding and excavation of an increasing number of medieval shipwrecks offers the opportunity, and the authors propose to build a database with technical characteristics of late-medieval vessels in the hope of finding patterns that wil…
Arade River Archaeological Complex
Situated on the southern coast of Portugal, the Arade River mouth has been visited and inhabited for over three millennia. Dredging operations, in the first and last decades of the 20th century, brought up the importance of Arade's cultural heritage and triggered a large-scale project of study, survey, and archaeological excavation. This project is conducted by Centro Nacional de Arqueologia Náutica e Subaquática, the Portuguese agency for nautic…
Eremitismo y mundanidad en la Americana Thebaida de fray Matías de Escobar
Matías de Escobar nació en Tenerife, en las Islas Canarias, el 24 de febrero de 1690. Beristáin, llevado por sus afanes criollistas, lo hizo originario de Querétaro; pero se trata obviamente de un error. Pasó al Nuevo Mundo con sus padres, siendo aún un adolescente. Estudió humanidades en el convento agustino de Yuririapúndaro y en 1705 ingresó al convento de esta orden en Valladolid. El siguiente año hizo los votos. Posterionnente asistió a curs…

La rebelión del indio Mariano (Nayarit, 1801)
A pesar de su interés, poco es lo que se conoce acerca de la rebelión del indio Mariano, "el de la máscara de oro". Mora Bustamante y Alamán la mencionaron, restándole importancia. Algunos autores contemporáneos han efectuado breves comentarios; pero ha sido notable la ausencia de un trabajo detallado que reconstruya los acontecimientos y analice sus distintas y complejas implicaciones. El 3 de enero de 1801 el alcalde indio de Ahuacatlán entregó…

Profecías y libelos subversivos contra el reinado de Carlos III
La expulsión de los regulares de la Compañía de Jesús fue sin duda uno de los mas dramáticos acontecimientos del reinado de Carlos III. En la Nueva España la ejecución de la real pragmática provocó graves tumultos en San Luis Potosí, Guanajuato y Michoacán. Estas rebeliones han llamado con justicia la atención de los historiadores y merecido varios estudios; en cambio la reacción no violenta de la población de la zona central del virreinato no ha…
