Abstract
Underwater archaeological activities in the Philippines have been documented from the earliest recorded work in 1967 (Lopez, 1967) to the more recent undertakings in the 1980s (Conese, 1981, 1983; Alba, 1984; Philippine Delegation, 1984; Cuevas, 1986, 1988; Nicolas, 1986). The discovery and excavation of lashed-lug planked boats in northeastern Mindanao and the results of the archaeological research at sites having a maritime orientation, likewise, have been published (Peralta, 1976, 1980; Scott, 1981; Ronquillo, 1987).
