The project is based on four shipwrecks, all of them significant and important, showing a diversity of intercultural relationships throughout a long period of European history. The wrecks are in the Netherlands, Germany, Sweden, and Finland, representing different ship types. The oldest is from the 13th century and the youngest from the mid-19th century. The wrecks are in different underwater environments; in sea, lake, and brackish waters, and the conditions are both stable and unstable. The wrecks are all preserved extremely well; two of them are almost intact.
