Cannons lost underwater during the American Revolution will soon go on display at a Georgia museum

These 17 cannons, lost in the Savannah River during the American Revolution, are set to be displayed at a museum in Georgia's oldest city. After lying undisturbed for nearly 240 years, these artifacts provide a rare glimpse into the early days of the U.S. military and its struggles during the revolution. This discovery is significant as it offers historians a tangible connection to that pivotal era, enriching our understanding of the revolutionary period and the technology used in early American warfare.
