I just watched a youtube video that they found a Roman shipwreck absolutely packed with lead ingots. They brought them up for use.

I second the request for a link if you can remember it. Raising stacks of lead from the seafloor sounds like an interesting (and expensive!) engineering challenge, especially if they aren't bound together.

Share the link? That sounds fascinating!

It was confounding. Please beware!
