Captain Kidd's Lost Ship, Part 1 of 2

This time we dive into the world of underwater archaeology and pirates with "Captain Kidd's Lost Ship: The Wreck for the Quedagh Merchant" by Frederick H. Hanselmann. In this episode we talk about how it's okay to skip theory chapters in archaeology books, we look at some of the big picture events in the world during Kidd's time, and finally we discuss Kidd's career and downfall.For our next podcast we will finish the book and get into the archaeology of the Quedagh Merchant and we will look at how the ship is interpreted for public divers to experience.Please note, due to schedules and the holidays we will not be releasing an episode in January, so our next episode will release in February.___Want to support this podcast?
