In 2015, divers discovered a more than 2,000-year-old Roman shipwreck off the coast of Sardinia that carried terracotta tiles produced around Rome. The product was probably to be used in the construction of the villa of a Roman aristocrat or wealthy merchant. According to scientists, the goods were to be transported either to Spain or to the western part of Sardinia.
