Re: Man Arrested Collecting Ancient Jars from Sihanoukville Sea Bed
I think a few old jars are the least of their worries,
if they are that valuable why didn't the gov divers bring them to the surface years ago

What makes you assume that the relevant authorities knew about the location?
You think everything is discovered already? Would probably be the only country in the world with 100% historical sites/items discovered.

Ceramics Discovered Off Sihanoukville Date Back to 15th Century
AKP Phnom Penh, October 02, 2020 --
The Ministry of Culture has confirmed that the 284 ceramics discovered on the seabed off Sihanoukville, Preah Sihanouk province are ancient potteries dating between the 15th and 17th centuries.
Thorough examination and evaluation of the ceramics were made early this week by the Heritage Department of the Ministry of Culture and Fine Arts in cooperation with the Provincial Department of Culture and Fine Arts, and the result showed that the potteries are indeed ancient artifacts, the ministry said in a statement released on Oct. 1.
The ceramics have been seized from a Vietnamese fisherman who kept them illegally without reported to authorities.
The potteries will be preserved by the provincial department as national cultural heritage.
