Maritime Archaeology in the North Sea –
From Stone Age Landscapes to Shipwrecks
A Pilot Project of the German Maritime Museum in Bremerhaven:
“The North Sea – A Threatened cultural Archive”
The North Sea is among the German coastal waters under the greatest utilization pressure. Only relatively few areas of the North Sea are not exploited for fishery, maritime traffic, or the construction of wind parks, pipelines and the like. These intrusions therefore threaten to destroy the cultural assets preserved in the bed of the North Sea.
The state monument protection laws are not valid in the EEZ (exclusive economic zone), and in the context of archaeological monument preservation Germany has no national authority which would also apply to federal territorial waters. The underwater cultural assets outside the twelve-mile zone can accordingly not be placed under monument protection. What is more, to this day the German government has not signed the UNESCO Convention on the Protection of the Underwater Cultural Heritage.
For this reason, in a project to be carried out between 2011 and 2014 in close cooperation with the Bundesamt für Seeschifffahrt und Hydrographie (BSH; Federal Maritime and Hydrographic Agency), the shipwrecks known to lie on the floor of the North Sea are to be charted and their heritage value assessed. A selection of shipwrecks acutely threatened by construction measures are to be investigated as representative cases. In the process, cooperation with other Leibniz Institutes will ensure a comprehensive interdisciplinary approach (Senckenberg Institut, Wilhelmshaven; Institut für Baltische und Skandinavische Archäologie, Schleswig; Institut für Ostseeforschung, Warnemünde; Deutsches Bergbaumuseum, Bochum; Römisch-Germanisches Zentralmuseum, Mainz and the Forschungsallianz Kulturgütererhalt FALKE). The area of investigation will initially be confined to the EEZ of the German North Sea. In collaboration with the respective state agencies, however, the Deutsches Schiffahrtsmuseum (DSM; German Maritime Museum) will also be able to document and recover wrecks outside the twelve-mile limit if necessary. The DSM has already successfully carried out cooperative projects with the state archaeological agencies several times in the past.
The files of the BSH – with which the DSM has had a cooperation agreement for many years – will be analyzed with a view to these purposes. At the same time, a data base with the newly derived archaeological data will be set up at the DSM. The museum can also collect further data with its own geophysical prospection equipment, making use of the BSH infrastructure in certain individual cases. With this equipment the DSM will also create a basis for future projects.
