Abstract:

The results of the research on newly discovered wreck in Kobyla Kępa - a large river craft are presented and discussed. The wreck was found in the area of the former estuary of the Vistula River to the Vistula Lagoon. At the time of the discovery only the bottom part of the vessel 22 meter long and 3 meter wide was preserved. The characteristic element of this craft, however, is the L-shaped chine-plank. Carvels secured bottom planks were caulked in the way characteristic for the Hanseatic period. The dating of the last preserved sapwood ring to 1291 AD shows that the vessel was built very shortly after this year. The research made on the oak wood samples from Kobyla Kępa vessel shows that already at that time building material wastransported from different parts of Poland to one of the Hanseatic towns at the Lower Vistula River - most probably Elbląg
