Deux \u00e9paves datant du XVIIIe si\u00e8cle d\u00e9couvertes au large des c\u00f4tes du Costa Rica, que l’on pensait jusqu’alors \u00eatre celles de vaisseaux de pirates, \u00e9taient en fait celles de bateaux n\u00e9griers danois, a annonc\u00e9 dimanche le Mus\u00e9e national du Danemark. \u00ab\u00a0Des recherches sur du bois de la charpente des navires, des briques de la cargaison et des pipes en terre retrouv\u00e9s au cours de fouilles sous-marines\u00a0\u00bb ont permis d’identifier ces b\u00e2timents, a-t-il expliqu\u00e9 dans un communiqu\u00e9.
Il s’agit du Fridericus Quartus et du Christianus Quintus, qui, selon des sources historiques, ont coul\u00e9 au large des c\u00f4tes d’Am\u00e9rique centrale en 1710, a pr\u00e9cis\u00e9 le mus\u00e9e. Le premier a \u00e9t\u00e9 incendi\u00e9, tandis que le second a \u00e9t\u00e9 emport\u00e9 par les vagues apr\u00e8s que son ancre a \u00e9t\u00e9 coup\u00e9e.
Et, jusqu’\u00e0 pr\u00e9sent, on ignorait l’endroit exact o\u00f9 ils avaient coul\u00e9. Le mus\u00e9e a \u00e0 cet \u00e9gard soulign\u00e9 qu’au Costa Rica, on savait depuis longtemps d\u00e9j\u00e0 que deux \u00e9paves se trouvaient dans les eaux du parc national de Cahuita. Des fouilles sous-marines ont \u00e9t\u00e9 effectu\u00e9es en 2023 et les analyses r\u00e9alis\u00e9es se sont av\u00e9r\u00e9es \u00ab\u00a0tr\u00e8s convaincantes\u00a0\u00bb, a comment\u00e9 David Gregory, un arch\u00e9ologue du Mus\u00e9e national du Danemark. \u00ab\u00a0Nous n’avons plus aucun doute sur le fait qu’il s’agit des \u00e9paves des deux bateaux n\u00e9griers danois\u00a0\u00bb, a-t-il assur\u00e9 dans un communiqu\u00e9.
