For centuries, an ancient Roman shipwreck sat off the coast of Spain. Currents swirled around it and sand piled up on it, but the weathered ship survived relatively intact. And with more unique features than archaeologists initially thought. The ancient Roman shipwreck, nicknamed the Illes Formigues II after the nearby Formigues Islands, was rediscovered in 2016, according to a blog post from the Catalan Archaeology Museum. The ship sits about 150 feet down and has been under excavation for years.
