A granite anchor of 400kg was found in the sea ,near the island of Levinthos ( between Naxos and Kos) , dated VI century bC .The very interesting case is that it belonged to a very big ship unknown from other sources

Re: Huge anchor
Thank you for your reply, we dont know if this specific anchor has the name of this Sostratos..i think its too early yet... the item must be conserved
