Le site du 23 rue du Duc est localisé sur la côte Atlantique dans la ville de La Rochelle en Charente-Maritime. Son implantation au sein du quartier Saint-Nicolas en bordure du port en fait un site intéressant pour la compréhension de cette partie de l'agglomération. En effet, le quartier forme à lui seul une entité géographique et historique (Fig. n°1 : Plan général des vestiges (seconde moitié du XVII e s. à la première moitié du XVIII e s.)) .

Among the partners of the UNESCO Chair The Ocean’s Cultural Heritage are CHAM and IPC (Cape Verde) which defined as essential action the underwater archaeological site inventory of that archipelago. This action started in 2018 as part of the European project CONCHA, that aims to address the different ways that port cities developed around the Atlantic during the early modern era. CONCHA’s surveys were conducted on the island of Santiago, in Ribeira Grande anchorage, in São Francisco (17th century) and in Urânia shipwrecks (1809). The project included the underwater survey, a review of the documentation and of the archaeological materials, recovered from the sites, at the Museum of Archaeology in Praia. Dissemination and training activities were also carried out. This paper systematizes the results of these works.
