In Slovenian and Croatian, without translation.

Hodalič has been collaborating with Croatian archaeologists for a number of years, and has taken numerous photographs of exceptional underwater archaeological finds in the Eastern Adriatic. The talk will be dedicated to the mysteries of the Adriatic Sea – more specifically, the area around the island of Mljet, where archaeologist Igor Miholjek from the Croatian Conservation Institute is conducting groundbreaking underwater research. The discoveries of shipwrecks and their valuable cargo reveal important fragments of maritime history and shed light on the onetime dynamics of trade routes in this area.
