This volume gathers 88 contributions related to the theme ‘Ships and Maritime Landscapes’ of the Thirteenth International Symposium on Boat and Ship Archaeology (ISBSA 13) held in Amsterdam on the 7th to 12th October 2012. The articles include both papers and poster presentations by experts in the field of nautical archaeology, history of ships and shipbuilding, and naval architecture. The contributions deal not only with the theme of maritime landscapes but also with a variety of ship related subjects, like regional watercraft, construction and typology, material applications and design, outfi tting, reconstruction and current research.
Reviews
“…we congratulate the editors for having the will and the courage to publish almost exhaustively these proceedings, including no fewer than 88 papers, which may explain the delay in publication. In doing so, they give an account, without complacency, of the state of current research in nautical archaeology. Their merit is even greater, that the whole is of high editorial quality and that the 525 pages are abundantly and richly illustrated in colour and black-and-white. In total, the 13th volume of the Proceedings of the International Symposium on Boat and Ship Archaeology is perfectly integrated into the collection, and is an essential reference thatmust find its place in all libraries and a must-have for any specialist or amateur of nautical and maritime archaeology and also anyone interested in maritime history.” Patrice Pomey in The International Journal of Nautical Archaeology (2018) 47.2: 477-497
