“…The circumstances and implications of the multibeam survey and 3D visualization (on Sketchfab at https://skfb.ly/RICO) of Falmouth are addressed in a separate publication (Firth, et al ., 2019). Nonetheless, the Falmouth project was expected to be desk‐based only: no provision was made for a fieldwork element and the development of a 3D visualization was opportunistic rather than planned.…”

HMS Falmouth is the only known wreck of a Town Class light cruiser, which were 'arguably the best cruisers of the First World War' (Lyon, 1977c: 49). This article reports on a project to better understand the significance of the wreck and to raise public awareness of the heritage of the First World War at sea. Although the wreck is heavily degraded it is still of considerable importance, raising methodological questions about the role of multibeam survey and 3D visualization, access to archival material, and the characteristics of archaeology as applied to 20th-century warships.

An Immersive Digital Commemoration of the Japanese Submarine I-124 Sunk in 1942 outside Darwin Harbor, Australia

The Japanese submarine I-124 was sunk in a military engagement with Allied forces outside Darwin Harbor, Australia, with 80 submariners aboard on 20 January 1942. To mark the 80th anniversary of this historic event and complement more traditional commemorative activities, a virtual-reality experience was created for general public engagement. The experience was based on a high-resolution multi-beam sonar survey completed in October 2021 by the Australian Institute of Marine Science, and used an animation-based workflow to illustrate the survey of the submarine, the events of its sinking and the historical data used to digitally reconstruct it. The animation culminates in a virtual dive across its decks as they may have appeared in the years after the sinking. Future plans for the site include diver-based surveys for photogrammetric survey and management-based monitoring. The creation of the experience required an in-depth consideration of a wide range of stakeholder needs and Australian and Japanese cultural attitudes to commemoration of World War II casualties. We describe the technical and cultural challenges encountered throughout the project.

Este artículo discute las consideraciones teóricas, metodológicas y de instrumentación con las que es posible y necesario trabajar para auxiliar en la detección de restos humanos en contextos sumergidos de una manera científica, sistemática, y reproducible. Esta labor es también copartícipe del propósito de hacer de la arqueología una herramienta para ayudar a cerrar procesos profundamente dolorosos entre las familias que han sufrido pérdidas en el grave contexto de desapariciones forzadas en el México actual. Se consideran como parte del análisis los siguientes elementos clave: 1) la necesidad de un desarrollo explícitamente teórico en arqueología que incorpora estrategias para la resolución de preguntas, tal como es el caso de la arqueología procesual; 2) el análisis de las alteraciones tafonómicas que afectarán a un cuerpo humano y que se presentan en el escenario de un contexto sumergido, y, 3) el desarrollo de una metodología de prospección que incorpora tecnologías de punta de lanza en la arqueología marítima contemporánea, con énfasis en instrumentación de posicionamiento, geofísica marina, fotogrametría, robótica y buceo técnico y científico.
