100-Year-Old Coal Blocks Still Perfectly Stacked on Shipwreck #underwater #history #discovery
Dec 26, 2025
On the wreck of the SS Skaala, we found patent coal blocks, evidence of early 20th-century maritime history. These coal blocks, designed for efficiency, were stacked exactly as loaded over a century ago, offering a glimpse into the ship's past. This deep sea discovery contributes to our understanding of shipwrecks and the ancient artifacts they hold, making for fascinating underwater exploration.
