Estimated 30,000 antiques to be salvaged from sunken ship
More than 30,000 pieces of antiques are expected to be salvaged from Nan’ao-1, an ancient merchant vessel that sank about 500 years ago off the coast of Guangdong Province.
Upon the conclusion of an underwater archaeological mission, about 10,000 pieces of newly salvaged antiques will be exhibited in the Nan’ao Museum in Shantou, said Huang Yingtao, director of the museum.
The salvage operation, which started in June, was suspended due to the effects of typhoon Kai-Tak, which made landfall in the coastal area of Guangdong at noon on Friday.
Which is very interesting, albeit not so much so as the bikini models cheering for high-quality cows.
