Can anybody recommend a good book on modern underwater archeology? Most of my knowledge on the subject comes from the 1970s-90s and I need to learn some modern information for an idea I'm working on.
Ooh! That sounds like an interesting topic! I've never read a book on it, but I'd love to find one. I'll come back here and tell you if I find one.
If you ever want to talk, please feel free to PM me for any reason! ^^ Don't write because you're a writer; write because you have something to say. Orabella ~ Ora ~ Avenue ~ Aven She/her
What sort of specific things are you trying to learn about it?
I found an article written by the North Carolina Office of State Archeology published in 2020, if that is of any use. The NCOSA Seems to have a branch dedicated to the field.(https://archaeology.ncdcr.gov/blog/2020 ... rchaeology)
The website Sapiens, which I recommend for all sorts of anthropology/archeology content, has a few articles about the ethics of underwater archeology, as well as methods for underwater forensics, which could be useful. (https://www.sapiens.org/biology/search- ... forensics/)
If you are looking for books specifically, I haven't read a lot on the topic, but The Oxford Handbook of Maritime Archeology (ISBN: 9780199336005) looks like it has tons of useful info, and it was published in 2014 so it's more modern than the other sources you have.
