Description: (curated)

Prof. Benedict J. E. Isserlin (wearing a hat) and students walk towards the rear of the sixth century BCE artificial "harbor " or dry-dock (cothon) on the Phoenician island-settlement of Motya, near Marsala in SW Sicily (Italy), in 1971. Harold E. Edgerton conducted sonar surveys along the island edge beyond the cothon at Isserlin's invitation. (CC)
