Heavy erosion caused by flooding and Typhoon Kalmaegi have exposed an uncovered shipwreck on the beach of Tan Thanh in Hoi An Tay ward, Da Nang city, just a short walk from the beach, offering a clear opportunity for salvage after a two-year delay. The shipwreck was found on the beach in 2023, but the rough sea and poor climate conditions have prevented any excavation work. Initial surveys in late 2023 revealed that the ship measured roughly 15m in length and 3m in width, and was similar in shape to merchant ships used by Hội An people in previous centuries. The Hoi An Heritage Centre emphasised that the ship is a unique and vivid physical testament to a vibrant period of maritime trade in the East Sea. VNA Photo: Trần Lê Lâm
