  • The Discovery of an Isolated Anchor in Monterey, California Is Puzzling Because It Is Made Entirely of Bronze
    THE MYSTERY OF BRONZE ANCHORS: THE MONTEREY BRONZE ANCHOR AS A CASE STUDY JEFFREY R. DELSESCAUX CALIFORNIA DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION, STOCKTON, CALIFORNIA The discovery of an isolated anchor in Monterey, California is puzzling because it is made entirely of bronze. Throughout history, iron and stone have been the typical material used in the manufacturing of ship anchors. The anchor was discovered in Monterey Bay, California in 1944 after becoming fouled in the anchor line of an oil tanker. Now permanently displayed outside the historic Customs House in Monterey State Historic Park, this bronze anchor continues to puzzle researchers. This paper will discuss the possible sources of the Monterey bronze anchor and hypothesize on geographical pressures and lack of industrial resources that could have produced a need for bronze anchors. Iron anchors are a common artifact type displayed in the various seaports around the world. They are so common that most people give them little attention. These anchors usually lack provenience and are in poor condition from their exposure to salt water and, having never been conserved after being recovered, they are deteriorating. It is disappointing because although they lack provenience, anchors can still provide useful data. Typology can provided details, such as age and nationality, and provide clues into the past trading patterns of seaports. The study of anchors might be neglected, but there is one anchor that deserves closer inspection. At Monterey State Historic Park (SHP) in Monterey, California, an unusual bronze anchor lies outside the Customs House, a historic structure that dates back to 1827 (Figure 1). A plaque placed next to it reads, "Old bronze anchor brought up from the bottom of Monterey Bay in July 1944.

    Fishery Basics – California Fisheries Market Squid (Doryteuthis opalescens) Left photo: squid swimming. Right photo: squisquidd layinglaying eggs. Photos courtesy of NOAA Fisheries Service Southwest Fisheries Science Center.Center. Life History Squid, Octopuses, Clams, and Oysters belong in the taxonomic phylum Mollusca and are characterized as having soft bodies with a hard shell portion. California Market Squid are small pelagic mollusks that inhabit the waters of the eastern Pacific Ocean from the southern tip of Baja California to southeastern Alaska. The highest abundance of squid occurs between Punta Eugenia, Baja California and Monterey Bay, California. Squid can be found in open waters above the continental shelf (See Biology & Ecology – Ecosystems Where Fish Live) from the surface to depths of at least 700 m (2,300 ft). Market Squid have a life span of approximately one year and reach a maximum total length of 30 cm (12 in). They are a semelparous species that spawn multiple times during the last few weeks of their lives. When adults reach maturity they move into shallow waters, usually semi-protected bays, where they congregate in dense schools over sandy bottoms. Spawning seasons are dependent on environmental conditions, like water temperature and water clarity. In Monterey Bay, mass spawning during the night usually occurs in April through November, while in southern California it occurs in October through April or May. When spawning (video) occurs, a male grabs a female and holds her in a vertical position and then uses a specialized ventral arm to transfer and deposit spermatophores into the female’s mantle cavity. The females lay eggs in elongated capsules, which each may hold up to 300 eggs.
