Sarapis.The Roman ship found by <strong>Pitt</strong> near Gronquist Bay Village. Thought to be from the fourth<br />

century. <strong>Pitt</strong> dives through the ice in a dry suit using surface-supplied air <strong>and</strong> examines the wreck. <strong>Pitt</strong><br />

finds the wreck has no stern rudder <strong>and</strong> a lead-sheathed bottom. Asked to examine the stern post, <strong>Pitt</strong><br />

finds a hardwood plaque <strong>with</strong> the Greek letters spelling Serapis <strong>and</strong> a face <strong>with</strong> curly hair <strong>and</strong> a heavy<br />

beard. Graham explains that the letters are not Classical but Eastern Greek <strong>and</strong> that it is the name of a<br />

Greek Egyptian god. <strong>Pitt</strong> enters the hull <strong>and</strong> finds the galley in order but no bodies inside. Roaming<br />

through the ship, he examines the cargo hold <strong>and</strong> finds the crew, eight in all, perfectly preserved <strong>and</strong><br />

crowded around an iron stove. <strong>Pitt</strong> theorizes they were killed by a buildup of carbon monoxide. After the<br />

ship is excavated from the ice, it is measured at just under twenty meters in length <strong>with</strong> a beam of seven<br />

meters.
