Assessing a Decade of Kaş Underwater Archaeopark

Abstract Archaeological parks provide hypothetical reconstructions that allow the general public a better historical understanding. This paper presents the case of an underwater museum, Kaş Archaeopark, which incorporates interpretative reconstructions of the Uluburun shipwreck site and its cargo. The project emphasized three outcomes of the creation of an underwater museum: education through nautical archaeology training, recreational diving as a means to raise public awareness, and research through experimental archaeology projects. Overall, the Kaş Archaeopark has improved knowledge and awareness of heritage preservation in both the local and diving communities.
