Abstract
The Xiaobaijiao No. I shipwreck is located just southwest of Beiyushan Island, Xiangshan County, in the East China Sea off the coast of Zhejiang Province. A preliminary underwater archaeological survey of this wreck was carried out in 2008 by the National Museum of China and Ningbo Municipal Institute of Cultural Relics and Archaeology. China’s Underwater Cultural Heritage Protection Center organized a systematic excavation of the site in 2012. The bottom part of the wreck, which sank during the reign of Qing Emperor Daoguang (1821–1850), has revealed the keel, rib and beam, partition board, and bottom plating timber. A series of artifacts as blue and white, brown glaze, colorful glaze porcelain, and coins and seals from different countries were collected. Those cultural relics show the maritime trade history of China with Ryukyu and Southeast Asia in the 18th and 19th centuries.
