A 19th century Dutch shipwreck that went down in Australia more than 160 years ago has been located by Australian archaeologists.
The "significant discovery" was announced this week by the Australian National Maritime Museum and the SilentWorld Foundation after a four-year search.
The find "connects us to stories of trade and migration, having discharged over 400 Chinese miners just days before its sinking," the museum said in a post on social media about the discovery.
