Cable
Ship's cable have been surprisingly well preserved. Sadly economy prevents us from
preserving but the most well-preserved. Numerous samples are taken from the cable that is
re-deposited, though. These samples show all the different knots, braids, splices and
whippings encountered.
This massive roll of cable has been found in trench 2, what might have been the frigate's
cable stores.
