Episode 12 ǀ Citizen science and the HMS Buffalo re-examination project
Rosemary talks to Dr Kurt Bennett about his role in the HMS Buffalo wreck re-examination project. Professional maritime archaeologists trained recreational divers to conduct fieldwork on the shipwreck in Mercury Bay. Public talks, museum exhibits, educational programmes, and collaboration with Ngāti Hei all led to wider community knowledge about the HMS Buffalo. The project won the New Zealand Archaeology Association’s Public Archaeology Award in 2022.
