Divers off the coast of Italy have discovered a 2,100-year-old shipwreck containing more than 500 narrow-necked jars called amphorae.
The 70-foot wreck was located 151ft underwater three miles off Mazara del Vallo in Sicily, Italy, by divers Giacomo De Mola and Igor Bisulli following a tip-off from some fishermen.
“Visibility wasn’t the best… I got closer.
Below me was a vast expanse of amphorae,” De Mola said in a post on social media.
“This is, without a doubt, the most incredible discovery of my life,” he added.
