Bruseth. 520 After two decades of searching for La Salle's lost ship La Belle, Texas Historical Commission (THC) divers in 1995 located a shipwreck containing historic artifacts of European origin in the silty bottom of Matagorda Bay, off the coast of Texas. The first cannon lifted from the waters bore late seventeenth-century French insignias. The ill-fated La Belle had been found. Under the direction of then-THC Archeology Division Director James Bruseth, the THC conducted a full excavation of the water-logged La Belle. The conservation was subsequently completed at Texas A & M University's Conservation Research Laboratory, resulting in preservation of more than one million artifacts from the wreck. An official naval vessel granted to La Salle by the king of France in 1684, La Belle is still considered a sovereign naval vessel belonging to the French government under international maritime law. A formal agreement negotiated by the French Republic, the Muse national de la Marine, the US Department of State, and the THC allows the ship and artifacts to remain in Texas permanently and to be housed in an exhibit at the Bob Bullock Texas State History Museum in Austin, opening October 2014. This richly illustrated catalog will accompany the exhibit. 588 0 Print version record. 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 600 10 La Salle, Robert Cavelier,|csieur de,|d1643-1687|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n50043391|vExhibitions. |0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh99001275 600 17 La Salle, Robert Cavelier,|csieur de,|d1643-1687.|2fast |0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/14960 610 20 La Belle (Frigate)|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/ n00027884|vExhibitions.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh99001275 610 27 La Belle (Frigate)|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 759442 650 0 Underwater archaeology|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh85139611|zTexas|zMatagorda Bay|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85082026-781 |vExhibitions.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh99001275 650 0 Shipwrecks|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85121666|zTexas|zMatagorda Bay|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh85082026-781|vExhibitions.|0https:/ /id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh99001275 650 7 Underwater archaeology.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/ fast/1161071 650 7 Shipwrecks.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1116638 650 7 HISTORY|zUnited States|xState & Local|xSouthwest (AZ, NM, OK, TX)|2bisacsh 650 7 Antiquities.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/810745 651 0 Matagorda Bay (Tex.)|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh85082026|xAntiquities|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh99002344|vExhibitions.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh99001275 651 7 Texas.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1210336 651 7 Gulf of Mexico|zMatagorda Bay.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/1239547 655 4 Electronic books. 655 7 Exhibition catalogs.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1424028 655 7 Exhibition catalogs.|2lcgft|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/genreForms/gf2014026098 700 1 Barr, Juliana.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/ n2006064091 700 1 Bruseth, James E.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/ n82095236 710 2 Bob Bullock Texas State History Museum.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/names/no2002046784 776 08 |iPrint version:|aBruseth, James E.|tBelle, the Ship That Changed History.|dCollege Station : Texas A & M University Press, ©2014|z9781623490331 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=816243|zOnline ebook via EBSCO.
