Excavation of a Late Bronze Age shipwreck, tentatively dated to the 14th century B. C., was continued by the Institute of Nautical Archaeology at Ulu Burun near Kaş, Turkey, in 1985. New finds included more copper, tin, and glass ingots; Mycenaean, Cypriot, and Near Eastern pottery; bronze tools, including axes, adzes, chisels, drill bits, and tongs; bronze weapons, including swords, a dirk, a dagger, and arrowheads; balance-pan weights in a variety of materials and shapes; gold and silver jewelry, some as scrap; a scarab, a stone plaque, and a fragmentary gold ring inscribed with Egyptian hieroglyphs; beads of stone, faience, amber, and bone; fragments of faience rhyta; shell rings; and a globed pin of the type usually dated to the end of the Mycenaean period and later. The east-west route of the ship postulated on the basis of 1984 finds seems certain, but the nationality of the ship remains elusive
