Abstract
What factors determine the successful recovery and concentration of a full archaeological ship? While an article by G.D. van der Heide provides guidelines for recovery, he offers no analysis to explain why his issues are valid. Using ten case studies from diverse time periods and geographic locations around the world, this thesis explores van der Heide's issues to determine their significance. The case studies showed that while van der Heide's issues are valid there is no guarantee of a successful project even if they are addressed. There are other issues that are more influential to the outcome of a project, namely the parties responsible for the project and acquiring funding early on. Addressing these two issues increases the chances of having a successful outcome.
