This project combines petrography, geochemistry, dendrology and archaeology, with the aim of reconstructing the last route taken by the Paržine-Ilovik sailing ship. The ballast will be studied and sampled in situ, then analyzed in the laboratory. The results will be compared with those obtained from petrographic analysis of the amphorae and dendrological analysis of the hull wood, log loading and dunnage.
During the restitution phase, the positioning of the ballast and the evaluation of the volume occupied in the hold will enable us to complete the hydrostatic study of the ship and propose hypotheses as to its trim before sinking.
