Abstract:

The shipwreck in Beaufort inlet believed to be one of Blackbeard’s ships, the Queen Anne’s Revenge, continues to be surveyed and excavated. Current magnetometer surveys of a thirty by fifty foot section of the site reveals what could be an additional cannon in an area where four have already been recovered. This would be the nineteenth cannon found from this site so far.
