Abstract Warwick, a colonial merchantman owned and operated by Sir Robert Rich, Second Earl of Warwick, sank in Castle Harbour, Bermuda, in1619. Between 2010 and 2012, Warwick's hull remains and associated artefacts were excavated and recorded. Built early in the 17th century, Warwick’s structure revealed a traditional shipbuilding style. Covered with two layers of planking and a layer of sheathing, the ship was purpose‐built for extended transatlantic voyages. Not exceeding 200 tons, Warwick was an average‐size vessel with sufficient burthen to bring supplies and passengers to the colonies and return with tobacco. 抽象 Warwick (沃威克号) :百慕大城堡港17世纪早期英国沉船发掘报告 Warwick (沃威克号) 是一艘殖民地商船, 由第二代沃威克伯爵罗伯特·富奇爵士拥有和经营, 于1619年在百慕大的城堡港沉没。2010-2012年间, 沃威克号的船体残骸及相关文物遗存得到了发掘和记录。沃威克号建于17世纪早期, 其结构揭示了一种传统造-风格。这-船有两层船壳板及一层船底包板, 是专-长时间-越大西洋的航程而-计。沃威克号不超-200吨, 是一艘平均规模的船只, 它将物资和乘客带到殖民地而后运载烟草-航。 关键词:英国造船, 沃威克号, 17世纪, 百慕大, 薩默斯岛公司 Warwick (沃威克號) :百慕大城堡港17世紀早期英國沈船發掘報告 Warwick (沃威克號) 是一艘殖民地商船, 由第二代沃威克伯爵羅伯特•富奇爵士擁有和經營, 于1619年在百慕大的城堡港沉沒。2010-2012年間, 沃威克號的船體殘骸及相關文物遺存得到了發掘和記錄。沃威克號建于17世紀早期, 其結構揭示了一種傳統造-風格。這-船有兩層船殼板及一層船底包板, 是專爲長時間-越大西洋的航程而-計。沃威克號不超-200噸, 是一艘平均規模的船只, 它將物資和乘客帶到殖民地而後運載煙草-航。 關-詞:英國造船, 沃威克號, 17世紀, 百慕大, 薩默斯島公司
