Dear Members of ICMAH, Esteemed Museum Professionals, and Colleagues,
Maritime archaeology plays a vital role in preserving and interpreting our underwater cultural heritage. As stewards of this legacy, history and archaeological museums are essential in safeguarding and sharing cultural artifacts recovered from shipwrecks and submerged sites, which include ancient urban centers and trading ports. These institutions serve as important repositories, fostering public engagement and appreciation for the rich stories hidden beneath the ocean’s depths.
Through careful excavation, meticulous documentation, and advanced conservation techniques, maritime archaeology helps bridge the connection between artifacts and their historical context. This practice not only provides insights into historical trade networks and cultural practices but also highlights the importance of various submerged sites and the museums that study them. Such museums act as crucial platforms, showcasing tangible evidence of maritime history while also addressing challenges related to accessibility and public involvement.
The collaboration between maritime archaeology and museums represents a dynamic partnership that deepens our understanding of global history, making the treasures of our underwater heritage available to a wider audience.
In this regard, The ICOM International Committee for Museums and Collections of Archaeology and History (ICMAH) invites submissions of abstracts for the ICOM ICMAH Annual Conference 2026 entitled:
