Found ancient boats 3500 years in England

During the excavation of a single wooden boat submerged beneath the Nene River in Cambridgeshire (England), the experts were surprised to find eight more boats dating to about 3,500 years also trapped under reefs. . They have to salvage them.

On the old boats, keep the oars, rudders and jewelry intact. Eel traps, weapons, ceramics and labor tools were also found.

Unexpectedly, thanks to the muddy environment, the boats were still intact.'The boats were lying side by side in a forgotten world' - Mark Knight, a researcher of wetlands and history, said a member of the Cambridge University survey team.

According to Mark Knight, these ancient boats are on their way back to the wharf. The Nene River, about 3,000 years ago, was a land of very fast tide, so wooden boat travel was very popular.

Research results by British archaeologists have shown: about 4,000 years ago, the water level of the Nene river began to rise and create swamps. At first, people had to retreat to the drier land, but then they adapted to the new environment and the swamp was their main residence.

The British Cultural Heritage Department has spent a budget of £ 100,000 to build a cold storage house to store these ancient boats.

Carbon 14 tests will soon be announced in the near future. This may reveal more mysteries, such as why they were wrecked and how global climate change took place from 4,000 years ago.
