Abstract

This paper examines the organisations and policies that affect
underwater archaeology at an international level. International waters are
currently governed by the 1982 United Nations Convention on the Law of
the Sea, but will elements of that change with the adoption of the 2001
UNESCO Convention on the Protection of the Underwater Cultural
Heritage? What are the different aims of these pieces of legislation and how
do they affect the underwater cultural heritage? Is there any evidence for
countries adopting the goals of UNESCO or are they too idealistic?
The 2001 UNESCO Convention places a greater emphasis on the protection
of the material remains of the past than the 1982 Law of the Sea. It sets forth
more specific guidelines and recommendations on how to protect
archaeological remains.
