“…Two of the buttons have a back mark reading 'ORANGE TREBLE GILT•' encircling an omega shank. Back marks generally post-date 1790, but examples have been found as early as 1758 (Bingeman and Mack, 1997). Marks that reference the gilding process, however, did not appear until 1796, and omega shanks were not introduced until c.1800 (Hughes and Lester, 1981: 221;Meredith and Meredith, 2000: 26).…”

The 'Mardi Gras' Shipwreck is the remains of an early-19th-century sailing vessel lost in approximately 1220 m of water in the Gulf of Mexico. A recent archaeological investigation documented the wreck and recovered several artefacts, including glassware, ceramics, navigational instruments, a cannon, and a stove. Analyses of these artefacts and the surviving hull have led to preliminary conclusions on the nature of the vessel and its crew.
