Their journeys were long and perilous and many of those ships came to an ill-fated end often with tragic loss of lives and precious cargoes. Artefacts salvaged from those wrecks are precious souvenirs of the maritime history of the IndianOcean. The National Museum of History is lucky to be the recipient of a few of those artefacts that remain a fascination among local and foreign visitors.<\/p>\n<p>This new exhibit is part of the museum\u2019s objective to improve its exhibition with new acquisition for the satisfaction of its visitors.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"603\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-10339 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/static.africa-press.net\/seychelles\/sites\/30\/2022\/07\/postMediaimg_5_3-62d012c0d9672.jpg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/static.africa-press.net\/seychelles\/sites\/30\/2022\/07\/postMediaimg_5_3-62d012c0d9672.jpg 800w, https:\/\/static.africa-press.net\/seychelles\/sites\/30\/2022\/07\/postMediaimg_5_3-62d012c0d9672-300x226.jpg 300w, https:\/\/static.africa-press.net\/seychelles\/sites\/30\/2022\/07\/postMediaimg_5_3-62d012c0d9672-768x579.jpg 768w, https:\/\/static.africa-press.net\/seychelles\/sites\/30\/2022\/07\/postMediaimg_5_3-62d012c0d9672-80x60.jpg 80w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/seychelles\">Seychelles<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Seychelles.
