Abstract:
Hurricane Bonnie exposed a wooden shipwreck on the shore of Currituck Beach. Archaeologists from the Underwater Archaeology Unit investigated the 58 feet of wreckage and determined it was most likely a steamship which sank in the late 19th-century and was likely between 130 and 170 feet long.
