The true story of the city of Port Royal in Jamaica. In 1692 an
earthquake and tidal wave caused the city to sink beneath the sea.
Robert F. Marx was one of the men caught up in the legends of
buried treasure and this book describes the fulfillment of his
childhood dream: a two-and-a-half year exploration of the historic
Jamaican port. The first investigation of the site by a trained
marine archaeologist, his expedition discovered thousands of
perfectly preserved artifacts of life in the 17th century city:
silver and pewter ware; brass, iron and wooden tools; and much
more, including two hoards of classic buried treasure: Spanish
pieces of eight.
