500-year-old shipwreck uncovered in Barcelona

Archaeologists digging up a former fish market in Barcelona, Spain, have discovered the wreck of a ship that may have sunk about 500 years ago.

"It is of great importance because it is unusual to find underwater archaeological remains and when we do the studies on the keel and wood, etcetera, more details will be known," said Santiago Palacios Nieto, director of the archaeological team.
