During the voyage, the group of ships stopped in different locations along the West and East African coasts, such as Mozambique, finally sailing to India where they stayed until early 1503. Before departing back to Portugal, some of these ships remained on the Indian Ocean to disrupt maritime trade between India and the Red Sea. Two of those vessels, the Esmeralda and the São Pedro, wrecked off the coast of Oman in 1503. The...

This is a paper/report submission presented at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. During the winter of 2014 the Belinho beach (Esposende, Portugal) was surprisingly filled with wooden parts belonging to a ship, stone shots and metals objects. Everytime the sea was rough new objects would appear on the beach suggesting that a ship was wrecked close to the shore. The confirmation came in 2017 when the shipwreck site was found. Hundreds of objects have been found...
