- Four years in the making, this two-part television series follows the world’s largest Maritime Archaeological Expedition in exploring how the Black Sea formed after the last ice age. Could it have been the origin of Noah’s flood?
Led by charismatic chief scientist Jon Adams, the team send space aged remote survey vehicles 2 kilometres underwater to scan the seabed. In seeking geological clues, they quickly make remarkable finds: over 70 shipwrecks almost perfectly preserved in the chilly, oxygen-depleted water of this near landlocked sea. The films reveal extraordinary ships from the Ottoman, Byzantine, Roman and Greek civilisations.
They include discoveries that are unique worldwide: the most perfectly preserved Roman vessel ever and the only preserved Greek warship known. The series witnesses the highs and lows of the handpicked international team of world-class scientists, on their remarkable journey into the past. Their adventures at sea include extreme dives to depths of 100m, tense recovery operations struggling to salvage amphora from Roman ships and costly equipment failures that threaten their entire operation.

Whoever did the cinematography for this doc deserves a raise. Movie level shots in a standard level documentary
Timeline is a PBS production lol
BBC and Discovery channel as well which is cool AF @@itsallmyfault264

Shout out to all Research Team for these thousand year old discovery
The fact that the most important shipwreck of the black sea could literally be just right there in the darkness but the darkness keeps it from being found. Incredible
The last wreck… what a discovery. And so intact still. As if it is ready to sail away.. unbelievable…. After 2000 years….. wow
I wish I could live long enough to see what new discoveries man can find to give a real face to how we lived 2000+ years ago. How people lived loved, traveled, knowing what was truly important. Today people take it for granted.
I could watch videos like this 24/7 and I would like to see more documentaries of diving and research of the Black Sea. I spent many years on a Canadian Research Vessel during the Cold War period and I would drop everything to get a chance to hop on a Research Vessel in the Black Sea
Awesome documentary, thank you
I hope what they recovered in Bulgarian waters stays in Bulgarian museums.
Bulgarians are great at making deals. I am sure they kept going back to the port in Bulgaria because Bulgaria gave them great discounts for the port facilities in exchange for exclusive rights to the artifacts discovered.
So fascinating. I can't even explain.
How I felt just watching this program. Thank you so much for letting us watch with you
"We have state of the art technology".
Whips out a plunger to save the day.
😂
Which shows, imo, that the most simple and situationally adapted solutions can be the best, or maybe even tend to be.
The human mind is also quite inquisitive and performs better for a brief period when put under certain forms of short-term stress.
Hey I think that thinking of that plunger move was a stroke of genius right there.
Very interesting and Well Done documentary. And narrated perfectly👍
Brought me to tears. Stunning, breathtaking, extraordinary
Amazing work! Congrats🎉
This was incredible thank you crew for your wonderful dedication!
Great discoveries! Great video!! Hope more can be founded. But that Roman ship was fantastic!
The daredevils of their time were the ancient sailors
Or slaves.
Thanks!
Great DOC! Thanks
Very interesting and great images. Thanks for posting.
Wow....❤❤❤
Watch this crew over a few episodes. Very riveting stories
An excellent watch.
Great video
Fantastic!
What a spectacular documentary. Thank you
Tow summers, 1967 and 1968, I got to dive with a Marine Archaeologist, Franco Colsimo in Sicilian waters. I saw a lot of amphora but all in less than 150 feet of water. Your ships are really deep! I would hope that a book or two such as Robert Ballard did for ships of Guadalcanal, Midway, Bismark and Titanic are in the works. I for one would reserve a copy.
Loved every minute of this.
😮😮 I know that John made the decision to go diving himself down to 95 meters I'm just wondering wouldn't it have been a more prudent decision to send the ROV instead down to that depth?
Impressive documentary
.
Totally fascinating!
brilliant documentary
One big thing to remember is those shipwrecks are the final resting place for their crew. Rescue in the ancient world was unlikely and when the ship went down in the middle of nowhere, that was the end the crew's lives.
Really interesting 👍
I love the entire program but what hit home is in the beginning when one of the diver's says diving to him means peice. I think other divers know that feeling like lots of us think of deserts and mountains or a day working the farm. The only more rare that most don't is what a Astronaut feels looking back at planet earth and the moon. How incredible and precious life is.
As a diver I can attest that it is very zen down there.
my 2010 truck has fallen apart more then that!! sure don't build things like they did in yesteryears
boy thats the truth,
btw nice profile pic
Imagine how much more there are on the sea bottom all over the earth still not seen.
I strongly recommend Schwerpunkt's naval history playlist on the subject
super badass...
Incredible show. Along with the amazing moments of discovery, NEVER underestimate the true power of a plunger.
This looks like the first of two documentaries I watched a few weeks ago on this channel about the black sea wrecks, has this been re titled and re released?
Probably. Most documentaries channles do it, so they can milk the algoritm, and get the extra ad money and extra subscribers, as renaming it and re releasing it tricks youtube to push the channel. A lot of youtube channels do this sort of stuff all the time now days.
Diving blue waters for ancient ship wrecks helps get to the bottom of historically unanswered questions and provides far deeper understanding, indeed! 😑
Chapeau !
Fascinating
Incredible!
Very moving. One feels the lives lost there still very close
There are no more words
If it was a slow fill over thousands of years, you would have evidence of the lake shore beach the entire way to the modern shore not just 56km off the modern shore, unless there was a catastrophic flood from the Mediterranean, or global flood.
For them to allow for this to have happened, they would have to entertain the idea that the story of the flood is at least partially true. And they would never do so.
To get the evidence of the ancient lake beach, they needed to find a core (No 59?) that had metres and metres of beach evidence (mixture of finely ground shells almost as a sand as well as newer complete shells). If it is a slow, constant fill over thousands of years, you possibly can't find those thick layers of shell in the higher areas where the beach gradually but consistently moves inland.
This one painted a vivid picture, thumbs up
There was another piece of bright blue next to jar!!!
is tthis on tv?
I wonder how many ancient sailors were out to make a fortune versus how many were out to earn a living.
💞💞
Good show, but it is definitely not new. Seen it at least 3 times with a different name on here!
At 54:47 was that the upper part of a human? On the sediment
Imagine cradling the one that fell off the pallets.
A 95-meter dive is insanely deep and too risky for the reward presented. Dee[p sea exploration is better done robotically than risking human life.
They dived to and recovered an amphora from another wreck at 95m in the first part of this 2 part documentary. They mentioned how dangerous it was.
Wait..wouldn't there been more lake shores...
Iveseen.this at least 3 times. New one???
Is this a reupload?
naw its part 2 of the other one starts at the end of the first
Yes. I watched a week ago. I was hoping this was part 3
The way byzantatine is pronounced hahaha its hurts
To many commercials
That's why I have premium 😂
excelente
The Black Sea was created from the melting of glaciers I would assume.
Yes, the prehistoric lake was primarily filled by melted glacier waters flowing through the Danube, Dnipro and Don rivers.
OMG
again?
2kms is not correct. Submarines only go about 400m deep. I can accept 200m for a dive of this nature. Apart from that, super story.
The remotely controlled vehicles used in these expeditions can go much deeper than 400m.

Oh wait, we have quite a bunch of macroscopic bacteria colonies over timber remains, would they be feeding from it? I don't know why mo Nobel price was awarded for it.
How cool would it be to find ancient shipwrecks like that! If only the people that was on these ships could see the world now.
Would be a sad sight I’m sure
@@jodiehighroller9820 As in the technology aspect but yes very true also
They'd probably flee as fast as possible back to there own time I'm pretty sure
Nah
In a thousand years humans will be rescuing space ships from the bottom
Just say what you can prove
Y'all need to stop reposting the same video on different channels 😒
Another 20 year old documentary re uploaded with a different title ?
No. This is fairly recent and quite excellent.
@user-iv1po3rr8g the amount of confidence too lol, "fairly recent and excellent" yeahhh loll
Does that really matter, don't watch if you don't like it
Men could not dive 20 yrs ago, a part from muffdiving that is..

Bye zan tine
its so weird how they always say "it wasnt a biblical flood" the great flood has been proven throughout multiple cultures throughout the world but not to these peeps?
If ship still here why should bring up?
At 35:00 in when discovering the ancient ship, what was the reasons saying it would take at least 3-4 days to prepare for the divers to go down?? Also, why is it always that these ‘discoveries’ are happening near the end of the trip, no doubt to add extra phony dramaI? I believe that all these adventures are fully staged and scripted.
...was doubting whether i was the only one to see that it was all scripted and made up ! ( mostly decorated and prepared ) 😊
Archeological exploration for showing ancient existence of Roman empire wierk boats and Ottoman empire wierk boats...in black sea 🌊..are these missions carrying political messages to Northern Russian neighborhoods?
As someone who worked on schilling ROVs for over a decade and 3 different iterations of that manipulator the fake noises they made for it is nearly peak cringe. It’s laughable that they have a hydraulic powered arm servo noises.
wow
