Italian divers have discovered the 2,100-year-old wreck of a Roman ship off Sicily, piled high with hundreds of well-preserved ancient clay jars, known as amphorae, which were likely used to transport wine.The wreck, dubbed by Italy's Culture Minister Alessandro Giuli as "one of the most important underwater archaeological discoveries of recent years", was found some three miles off the coast of Mazara del Vallo.Divers from the cultural heritage protection arm of Palermo's police said Saturday they had located the ship, thought to date to between the 2nd and 1st centuries BC, some 150 feet down, after a tip-off from fishermen. In an Instagram post, underwater fishermen Giacomo De Mola described seeing "something" on his boat's underwater scanner which resembled a rock.

I got closer. And my heart stopped. Below me was a vast expanse of amphorae," De Mola said in the instagram post, along with video footage of the discovery.He said he "immediately" reported the discovery to the Superintendent of the sea of the Sicilian Region.Screenshot from video posted by Italy's Ministry of Culture showing the discovery of an underwater Roman shipwreck laden with amphorae, believed to be more than 2,000 years old.
