The Associated Press reports that a construction crew working at Pensacola's Naval Air Station in Florida has discovered a 16th century Spanish ship buried in the sand.
The partially-buried ship is believed to date from the earliest days of the Spanish colonies in Florida. The Navy plans to protect the buried ship and move construction project elsewhere on the base. |
