The Maritime Silk and Spice Route witnessed a vast exchange of ideas, religions, languages, and objects.
However, the significance of the salvaged shipwrecks and cargoes remains untold.
Reuniting Cargoes showcases trade ceramics from the 9th to the 19th centuries and digital reconstructions of the ships, illustrating how archaeologists and communities use science to uncover their cultural importance.
These narratives guide us towards protecting underwater cultural heritage for future generations.
