Internship inspection gravel wharfs

In the framework of the SeArch project, a protocol is being prepared for the aggregate industry concerning the reporting of archaeological findings at sea. To determine the probability and possibility of coming across findings on wharfs where dredged granules are handled, two archaeology students from the University of Ghent (Lien Van der Dooren en Toon De Herdt) inspected the wharfs on Ostend and Zeebrugge during one week. Their findings included a piece of fossilized whale bone and various flint artefacts.
