For the past three seasons, volunteers and archaeologists have been excavating and documenting Warwick, a 17th century shipwreck, that sank in Bermuda. The Warwick Excavation is a National Museum of Bermuda (NMB) project in partnership with Texas A&M and the Institute of Nautical Archaeology (INA), in association with The Global Exploration and Oceanographic Society (G-EOS) and Department of Archaeology at the University of Southampton.
