Ancient sacrificial altar discovered by divers

It is a significant find that will aid in the understanding of commerce and trade routes in the ancient world, around 218-210 B.C.

Jarrod Jablonski, president of GUE, said the find was a “remarkable piece of history”, exhibiting intricate wave patterns and Greek letters inscribed into its surface. Sixteen other unique artifacts were recovered by GUE technical divers working closely with submersibles from Brownie’s Global Logistics. The Sicilian government will study and preserve these artifacts.
