INGENIOUS ENGINEERING AT IMPERIAL FLEET BASE BACOLI, ITALY—Underwater archaeologists located the remains of a Roman-era breakwater at the site of the ancient harbor of Misenum on the Bay of Naples. The team from the Underwater Archaeology Office was at first puzzled by the a six-foot-high collection of carved blocks, sculptural fragments, columns, and architectural elements that they found lying on the seafloor. Stacked to form a structure measuring 295 feet long and 75 feet wide to shelter the fleet from the sirocco winds.
