| Chinanews, Guangzhou, January 17 – The salvage1 of the famous shipwreck2, Nanhai-1, now has entered the countdown phase, it being to be officially started in March 2007.
Guangdong provincial3 government has set up a salvage HQ, with Lei Yulan, the vice4 governor of Guangdong Porvince, as its director.
Nanhai-1 is a shipwreck of the Northern Song Dynasty (960-1127), which was discovered in 1986. Last year, 30 million yuan was allocated5 by the Ministry6 of Finance to support the salvage of Nanhai-1 (only lower than the allocation for the refurbishment of the Potala Palace in Tibet), in addition to the local government contribution of 60 million yuan.
Archaeologists found 4,000 pieces of precious cultural relics7 in a small cabin of about 1 sq m from March to May in 2002, and greater discoveries that even might rival the Qin Dynasty Terracotta Warriors8 in Xi'an of Shaanxi Province are expected from the salvage.
