The one hundred and ten archaeological finds discovered on the seabed of the Amalfi Coast will soon be on display in the Museum of the Ancient Arsenals of the Amalfi Republic .
Mostly amphorae, some dating back to Roman times, were recovered from the sea in the bays of Marmorata in Conca dei Marini. This was announced by Amalfi Mayor Daniele Milano during the presentation of the exclusive Diabolik comic book " Coup in Amalfi ," which aims to raise awareness of respect for cultural heritage and is set in the ancient maritime republic.
This is one of the last drawings, in a limited edition, by the master Enzo Facciolo , historic artist of Diabolik since 1963, who passed away at almost ninety years of age last August 13th. Just as he was still busy illustrating the tables of a new episode.
The collection of antiquities is very heterogeneous, with Roman, Greek-Italic, early Roman imperial, Norman, and medieval amphorae. Two finds, remains of amphorae and an anchor, which in the next few days will be subjected to “on sight” restoration. Anyone, enthusiasts and the curious, will be able to witness the recovery activities inside the arsenals.
" We are in a magical place for all Amalfi residents, the only living trace of Amalfi's ancient maritime tradition, " explained Mayor Daniele Milano . " Today, our history becomes Roman, at the bottom of the sea. This history tells us something, it tells us of a past of trade. The Municipality of Amalfi has invested resources to restore these assets that were found at the bottom of the sea."
