Historical archaeologists are in a unique position to analyze
both historical documents and archaeological data in order to
generate hypotheses and draw conclusions. In this work, the data
not only provided the history of the ship "Catharine" but also the
economic, social and political environments in which the ship was
built and employed.
This work focuses not only on the shipwreck and the wrecking event,
but on the history and archaeology of a single ship. With this
expanded view, the research also delves into:
*International shipbuilding;
*The struggle for dominance in the ship trade in the 19th
century.This book will be of interest to underwater, historical and
cultural archaeologists, social historians, cultural heritage
managers and archaeologists working in the southeastern United
States.
