The Mary Rose: A Tudor ship's secrets revealed


http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/special/panels/13/may/mary_rose/img/graphic_1369844034.jpg



More than 30 years after it was raised from the seabed - and almost 500 years since it
sank - the secrets of Henry VIII's flagship, the Mary Rose, are being revealed to the
public - along with the faces of its crew.Just yards from where it was first constructed
from 600 oak trees near Portsmouth's naval docks in 1510, the wreck of the Tudor
warship now stands on view in its new £35m home.Where once stood a proud, cutting-
edge ship built for war, now lies a reconstructed array of wooden decks and pillars,
withered by their hundreds of years at the bottom of the Solent.

Standing nearby are some of the men who shared a grave with the ship for hundreds of
years, their faces now reconstructed and displayed for the first time.Viewed through
windows on three separate floors, the preserved wreck stands opposite some of its
19,000 artefacts recovered from the depths.

Historical documentary looking at one of Britain's greatest maritime mysteries - the
sinking of the Mary Rose in 1545. Professor Hugh Montgomery, a leading intensive-
care doctor who dived on the wreck as a young man, returns to Portsmouth to
investigate the skeletons of the crew who drowned when the ship keeled over. The
bones lead to a startling discovery and a new theory as to why the ship sank.

Thank you very much for the latest news about this wonderful ship. I would love to go and see it, as I have been closely following the story of its discovery and raising. The reconstructions of the faces is superb- it all seems so real. The whole story about the pride of the fleet sinking within the harbour and while the king watched is one you couldn't make up, and no one would believe you if you did! It's a really vivid picture of the past and the people who lived at the time..

Not sure why they would hide inside that grey building (which, for some reason looks ALOT like a craft that I once
saw quite too close for comfort. Thank you for posting. Much great history in that ship.
