"Well, divers in general have the tendency to look for new things, new sites, new interest, new thrills, and if they have the tendency or the feel for archaeology - bingo - they have two in one".

				          	Caesarea, May 25: Scuba divers swimming under the blue Mediterranean
    sea surface are not always looking for fish, in one spot
    they are checking out exhibits in Israel's first underwater
    museum in the city of Caesarea.
</blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.zeenews.com/znnew/articles.asp?rep=2&aid=297778&ssid=8&sid=LIF">
   					As divers descend, the light dissipates to reveal
    remnants of what experts say was one of the biggest and
    most sophisticated sea ports of the Roman Empire.
And for the first time in about 2,000 years, the
    ancient harbour is open for business. The tourism business,
    that is.
</blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.zeenews.com/znnew/articles.asp?rep=2&aid=297778&ssid=8&sid=LIF">      
 With waterproof maps and an instructor to guide them,
    scuba divers can maneuver through the larger artifacts by
    following ropes tied between the poles in the sea bed. Snorkelers can
    view remnants found in more shallow waters.

    BC. King Herod named the port city in 22 BC to honour his
    patron Caesar Augustus and commissioned the building of the
    harbour, as well as other major projects, many of whose
    remains are now on display.
