The School's Maritime Archaeology Research Group was formed in 2001, and has an international reputation for high quality research in this area. The Group is currently engaged in research on many of England's Designated Historic Wreck sites. Designated sites Bournemouth students have worked on in the past include: Salcombe 'B' (a middle Bronze site that provides evidence of early contacts with the Mediterranean), Salcombe Cannon Site (the wreck of a 17th century vessel and one of the most spectacular wrecks found in UK waters), and the Erme Ingot Site (a site with tentative connections with Diodorus1st century BC reference to south west Britain tin trade).
