Extract

Travelling Europe at present is an exhibition about archaeological finds from the seas around Sicily. The island's most striking recent discovery (2004–2005) is the site of the Battle of the Egadi Islands, where Rome wrested control of the Tyrrhenian Sea from Carthage in 241 BC. Several of the exhibits are from that site.
