Gripen/Griphund excavation update

[Erpingham]

The latest excavation report for this Late Medieval (1495) wreck is available to download here . This is the ship perhaps more frequently referred to in the past as Gribshunden, Gripen/Griphund being a translation to modern Swedish.  It is in Swedish but has a long English summary (pp.77-96).  Even in English, it's very technical regarding ship building terminology but, if you like a bit of maritime archaeology, interesting. I must admit, I look forward to all the technical stuff turning into a detailed reconstrucion, so I can visualise it.
Look out for the weapon chest, with all it's kit for making ammunition for the various lighter firearms on board.
