    <p>The giant earthquake that hit the region caused huge layers of sediment to cover the artefacts and allowed them to barely be touched by decay, despite their age.</p><p>Bj&oslash;rn Lov&eacute;n, director of the Leichaion Harbour Project (LHP) which is responsible for the excavations, said: &ldquo;For almost two decades I have been hunting for the perfect archaeological context where all the organic material normally not found on land is preserved.</p><p>&ldquo;The potential for more unique discoveries is mind-blowing.&rdquo;</p><p>Corinth officials built the harbour towns of Lechaion and Kenchreai to take advantage of its two-mile distance from the sea in Greece.</p></section>
