👉 Treasure engineering is an interdisciplinary field that combines engineering principles with archaeological, historical, and scientific methodologies to recover, preserve, and study underwater cultural heritage. It involves designing and deploying specialized equipment and techniques to locate, excavate, and document shipwrecks, submerged settlements, and other underwater archaeological sites. Engineers develop remotely operated vehicles (ROVs), autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs), and advanced sonar systems to navigate and map these sites with precision, minimizing disturbance to delicate artifacts. They also create non-invasive methods for analyzing materials and reconstructing historical contexts, ensuring the preservation of these invaluable pieces of history while advancing our understanding of past civilizations.
