A Roman cargo has become the focus of an ongoing underwater archaeological excavation in Lake Neuchâtel, Switzerland.

Hundreds of objects, the last remaining evidence of a now-vanished Roman shipwreck, have been identified, documented, and subsequently removed from the lakebed.

The richness and diversity of this collection, preserved in excellent condition, make the discovery exceptional and unique within Switzerland and in the inland waters north of the Alps. The site offers a rare and well-preserved snapshot of Roman transport and trade in a freshwater environment.
