A collection of “unexpected treasures” has been found shipwrecked in mysterious circumstances in the waters of The Bahamas.
Allen Exploration (AllenX) recently discovered a cluster of 24 individual iron cannons off the northern Bahamas—including extraordinarily “rare” examples that have been traced back to the Crimean War of 1853-1855.
The latest finds were made by AllenX last year during an archaeological survey attempting to document remains of a Spanish galleon called the Nuestra Señora de la Maravillas, which was lost in 1656. The remains of the galleon are scattered for miles south of the main wreck spot.
