The methods applied include geophysical remote sensing, dendrochronological and anatomical analysis of ship’s timbers, RTI imagery for deciphering a series of illegible production stamps, and X-ray fluorescence analysis on non-ferrous fastenings. The above were crucial to the investigation, contributing to the discovery of the archaeological site, the establishing of its chronology and principal materials, and revealing of its association with the private Austro-Hungarian shipyard Stabilimento Tecnico Triestino. Thus a rare opportunity was created for further archival research to identify the Saint Nicholas Bay ship and unravel the history of her career and wrecking.
