This essay presents finds, which were made during excavations in the south during the 2023 campaign. The find spectrum consists of several worked timbers, pottery, animal bones and skin as well as possible post stand-tracks.
Unfortunately, a few errors crept in during printing. Therefore these have been corrected here.

In this essay aerial pictures as well as core drilling catenae are being discussed in connection to a pincer-shaped submerged structure. One possible interpretative approach is identifying the possibly man-made structure as breakwaters.

This paper deals with the investigation in the area of the imbarcadero storico Whitaker, where one half of a stone anchor stock was found as well as some translocated finds, a diverse spectrum of pottery and a net sinker made by stone. The finds which are being published and studied in this essay are being continously flushed out of the ground and their contexts by the ship's propellers of the ferry boats, running from the Sicilian mainland to the island multiple times a day.
Unfortunately, a few errors crept in during printing and there were confusions in the captions in the article on the stone anchor stock. Therefore these have been corrected here.
Underwater Archaeology in the Aeolian Islands, the Panarea 1 shipwreck, 2017

The "ArchEolie 2010" project included the extensive survey of the aeolian seabeds by remote sensing systems. The identified shipwrecks, that lie on the seabed approximetely between -85 and -135 metres in depth, were designated as Panarea 1, 2, 3 and 4 (Fig. 2). The Panarea 1 wreck was thoroughly explored in 2014 by Soprintendenza del Mare della Regione Siciliana, in cooperation with Global Underwater Explorers. In 2015, Aurora Trust Foundation realized detailed 2D and 3D models of the site (Fig. 4 and Fig. 5).

Although this region has been settled since prehistory, only during Roman times were coastal installations built in these islands. In this study, we present and discuss data on the relative sea level change estimated from a submerged pier of Roman age dated 2100 ± 100 BP. This structure, about 140 Â 60 m, is located along the coast of Marina Lunga, corresponding to the present location of the main harbor of Lipari island. This pier, which was accidentally discovered in 2008 during preliminary excavations for the construction of a new pier, is a valuable indicator of relative sea level changes and vertical land movements. Its top surface is presently located at À9.1 ± 0.05 m, while the foundations at the outer end of the pier are at À11.6 ± 0.05 m, above a shoreline placed at À13.0 ± 0.05 m. We studied this site through direct archaeological investigations and ultra-high resolution multibeam bathymetry.

Le prime ricognizioni risalgono al mese di luglio del 2010 quando la Soprintendenza del Mare in collaborazione con la statunitense Aurora Trust Foundation nell'ambito del progetto "Archeorete Eolie 2010" ha individuato i primi target.
