Hear the story of treasure — lost, then found — as William Mathers and Dr. Henry Parker take us on a journey of their recovery of a Spanish Galleon wrecked in 1638.

Hear about the modern-day adventure where our speakers led an international team of experts on history’s first archeological excavation of a Manila galleon.
