A 4,700-year-old shipwreck discovered in 2024 off Kekova Island near Antalya, Turkey, has been certified by Guinness World Records as the world's oldest known shipwreck. Initial assessments had placed the vessel in the Ottoman era, but further examination dated it to the Early Bronze Age. Artifacts recovered from the site will go on display in museums in Istanbul and Antalya. The recognition underscores Turkey's growing profile in underwater archaeology and could boost cultural tourism along its Mediterranean coast.
