Genava55 Posted December 31, 2020 Report Share Posted December 31, 2020 I don't think there are issues using it as an inspiration since it is itself based on other works and drafts made by historians (see my previous posts). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Genava55 Posted February 23, 2021 Report Share Posted February 23, 2021 (edited) Blackfriars ship 1 This Roman ship was discovered by Peter Marsden in 1962 in the bed of the River Thames, off Blackfriars in the City of London, and excavated in 1962-1963. The ship was a wreck that lay about 120 metres from the Roman shore at the south-west corner of the Roman city of Londinium. The construction of the ship was dated to about AD 150 by dendrochronology, and its sinking soon after by associated pottery and a coin. The remains of the forward half of the ship and the extreme aft timbers were excavated, and only the forward half was destroyed during the modern construction work. The aft half remains unexcavated. The wreck was about 14m long and 6.5m wide, and comprised the bottom and parts of the collapsed sides of a Romano-Celtic ship. The vessel was built of oak (Quercus) and had no keel, but instead two broad keel-planks. A stempost lay at the bow and a sternpost at the stern. The planks were carvel laid and fastened by large iron nails to oak frames - massive floor-timbers in the bottom, and lighter side-frames at the sides. The bottom nails had partly cone-shaped heads hollowed to contain a caulking of thin slivers of hazel (Corylus avellana) in pine resin, and the sides had fully cone-shaped heads similarly caulked. The pointed ends of all nails had been turned over the inboard face of the frames. Between the strakes was a caulking of hazel (Corylus avellana) shavings in a pine resin. https://www2.rgzm.de/navis/ships/ship020/Ship020.htm Edited February 23, 2021 by Genava55 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
