Abstract

During winter storms in 2014 and 2017, strong waves exposed hundreds of timbers and artefacts at the Belinho beach, in the North of Portugal. These ship remains were later discovered to belong to a 16th-century shipwreck, probably originating from Northern Europe. This paper aims to discuss the importance of cargo analysis through the study of the material culture associated with that site, consisting mainly of hundreds of pewter, brass, lead, iron, and stone artefacts. Most of these objects seem to have belonged to the ship’s cargo and are tied to a European trade system reflecting economic, cultural, and symbolic behaviours.

金属物品备受青睐：葡萄牙埃斯波桑德海岸的十六世纪沉船货物和研究船舶货物的重要性

在 2014 年和 2017 年的冬季风暴中，强浪使葡萄牙北部贝林霍海滩上的数百根木头和文物暴露出来。这些船只遗骸后来被发现属于一艘 16 世纪的沉船，可能来自北欧。本文旨在通过研究与该遗址相关的物质文化（主要包括数百件锡器、黄铜、铅、铁和石器），讨论货物分析的重要性。这些物品中的大多数似乎都属于船上的货物，并与反映经济、文化和象征行为的欧洲贸易体系联系在一起。
