Two stories are told simultaneously: one that may have been, and one that yet might be. The story of the voyage that might have been is based on archaeological evidence provided by the earliest shipwreck discovered in the New World. These two stories are set in different eras to demonstrate certain constants in the human drive to explore the unknown,

The focus of this project was the World War II (WWII) Battle of Peleliu that began on September 12, 1944. The project was limited to the Peleliu invasion beaches to approximately 30 meters (100 ft.) inland. Seaward, it included the lagoon, the reef, and the immediate area just beyond the reef. This was the first effort to study the Peleliu WWII invasion beaches and the offshore battlespace. The historical analysis of the assault, research undertaken to identify landscape modification and post-war salvage, KOCOA analysis, and the invasion beach site visit, provided a framework for understanding and modeling the loss locations and the remains documented in 2018.

The focus of the project is the WWII battle for the island of Peleliu and the scattered material remains present in the submerged battlefield. The goal was to locate and photogrammetrically record sites, characterize coral growth and impacts, and to examine the reef substrate and its coral communities to determine if the scars from U.S. military blasting for access to the lagoon is visible after more than 74 years.

Synthesis and overview of the maritime history of the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands (CNMI). It provides a maritime historical and archaeological context for all maritime related activities (prehistory to the modern era). In addition to watercraft, it includes traditional fishing sites, caves, whaling stations, dumpsites, and other losses.

The National Park Service (NPS) American Battlefield Protection Program (ABPP) was created to assist individuals, groups, organizations, and governments with researching, evaluating, interpreting, and protecting historic American battlefields. Battlefield sites hold national significance and are preserved so that present and future generations can “better understand the connection between military conflicts and important social and political changes” (ABPP 2019). Since 1991, ABPP and partner organizations have surveyed more than 650 American battlefields covering 16 wars. Today, ABPP continues to allocate grants for the study and preservation of historic American battlefields, both submerged and terrestrial. The ABPP provided funding for the development of this manual because of the unique circumstances inherent in the study of submerged battlefields. For more information, visit www.nps.gov/abpp.
The study of submerged battlefields is guided by current battlefield
research methodologies, including analysis of historic documents,
terrain, and artifacts. The major difference between terrestrial and
submerged battlefield archeology is the environmental site context;
working in submerged environments requires the use of different
technologies to access sites and interpret terrain features. The aim of
this manual is to present the steps necessary for identifying, recording,
and preserving submerged battlefields and is designed for use by
SHPOs, THPOs, and ABPP grantees.
