función

Spanish to English Social Sciences Archaeology underwater cultural heritage

Por ejemplo, una completa investigación arqueológica de un pecio lo transforma en «un
medio de transporte cargado de conocimiento» y proporciona un gran volumen de información.
Una exhaustiva documentación de la estructura de la embarcación permite deducir su función, métodos y técnicas de construcción naval.
El estudio del cargamento hace posible averiguar su origen, su contenido, su ruta y su posible destino.
