Archaeologists estimated that the cargo ship sank 4,400 to 4,700 years ago. Archaeologists announced they have discovered the remains of the world's oldest shipwreck, a wooden cargo vessel they estimated sank off the coast of Turkey nearly 5,000 years ago. Hakan Öniz, who led the underwater excavation, said the shipwreck dates back to when the Great Pyramid of Giza was being constructed. Among the artifacts recovered from the ship, estimated to be around 30 feet long, were ceramic storage pots and clay containers that may have been used to transport olive oil and wine, Mehmet Nuri Ersoy, the Turkish minister of culture and tourism, said in a social media post on Wednesday.
