Construction, Identification, and Conservation of a 19th Century Iron Cannon (2017)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Clinton P Brooks.

There are multiple issues that must be addressed during the archaeological conservation of iron cannon from underwater environments.

The diversification of cannon types in the 19th century necessitates highly accurate documentation and recording to insure correct identification of type. This paper outlines the methods used for the recording,...
