Synopsis

Hailing from academic training in fine and performing arts, Honor Frost learned to dive in the 1950s and within a decade began earning a reputation as a pioneering maritime archaeologist. She held unparalleled expertise in the study of ancient anchors, harbours, and shipwrecks in the eastern Mediterranean, where she helped to develop new archaeological applications for technologies like aerial photography and photogrammetry, which today are standard field practices. Over a career spanning five decades, Honor Frost published over a hundred research papers on maritime archaeological topics that integrate religious studies, linguistics, ethnography, geology, and oceanography, to name a few.

This volume curates a careful selection of nineteen of Honor’s most groundbreaking research papers, collected here for a new generation of maritime archaeologists and other interdisciplinary scholars. In addition to reproducing foundational yet often difficult to find research, the volume also includes archival materials that have never before been published and colour images that were originally printed in grayscale. It also features the complete bibliography of Honor Frost’s publications, from 1948 to 2011. With an introduction from the Honor Frost Foundation’s Maritime Archaeological Director, Honor Frost: Selected Works celebrates the legacy of an extraordinary scientist while making her most important works freely accessible to the public for the first time.
