Manila Bulletin

The National Museum of the Philippines (NMP) will embark on a two-week archaeological exploration of the San Bernardino Strait in Northern Samar to locate shipwrecks linked to the Manila Galleon Trade and naval vessels that sank during World War II.

The exploration activity, to be conducted in collaboration with Allen Exploration (AEX), an American ocean research company, is set from Nov. 5 to 18 and will first cover the municipal waters of Allen, Lavezares, Biri, and Capul in Northern Samar.

The provincial government on Thursday announced the plan after key officials from NMP's Maritime and Underwater Cultural Heritage Division paid a courtesy visit to Gov. Harris Christopher Ongchuan and other provincial officials to discuss the upcoming mission.
