What could be one of Norway's oldest shipwrecks has been found on the bottom of a lake near Oslo, during an effort to locate the tons of unexploded ammunition dumped there since World War II.
Archaeologists have discovered the remains of a mysterious vessel that could be one of Norway's oldest shipwrecks, during an effort to locate tons of unexploded ammunition dumped on the bottom of a lake near Oslo.
"We only have the acoustic [sonar] images of the wreck," he said."But it appears from the data that there is the outline of something that possibly could be a stern — and if that's the case, then that doesn't really appear until the 1300s." The lake has also been a vital trade route between prosperous communities since at least the Viking Age , and Ødegård said he was drawn by the possibility of finding cultural objects in the depths.
The AUV is equipped with sonar — sound navigation and ranging — which uses the reflections of sound pulses to make detailed acoustic images of the surroundings, even in almost lightless environments, such as the depths of the lake.
