Recently in a seaside resort in Mexico, archeologists discovered the remains of two centuries-old wrecks on the seabed. One of them is a Dutch battleship while the other belongs to the United Kingdom.
Found near the coast of Sisal, Yucatan, Mexico, hundreds of years ago, Sisal was a busy port. There were also large numbers of artillery found here, possibly belonging to one of the 18th-century Dutch warships. It is reported that another wreck belongs to the United Kingdom, dating back to the 19th century.
The wrecks and artillery were found beneath 15 cm of coral, and the British warship was a steamboat which was reportedly built between 1807 and 1870. It has machines and paddle wheels, most likely built by the Royal Mail Steam Packet Company.
In addition, porcelain and some cutlery were found on board. These two ships are considered the longest shipwreck found in the area. Found near the sea area of the ship also found a beacon wreckage.
