description Since 2002 a group of Maritime Archaeologists from Sri Lanka, The Netherlands and Australia are excavating a 17th century VOC shipwreck in the harbour of Galle in Sri Lanka. This excavation is part of a larger project that involves training local experts, research and the restoration of Dutch Heritage in Galle. This includes the Fort and the wreck of the Avondster. The article deals specifically about the consolidation of the shipwreck. Due to changes in the environment, the wreck is now heavily degrading. First it will be physically protected against further deterioration and then systematically excavated in sections. The first year has already given us some interesting results, which we report in this paper.
