Honor Frost (1917-2010) was an early pioneer in the field of underwater archaeology. Early in her career, she worked in Byblos, Sidon, and Tyre, where she conducted ground-breaking research on ancient ports, harbours, and anchors under the auspices of the Institut Français d’Archéologie in Beirut. During the 1970’s, in collaboration with the Sicilian authorities and the British School at Rome, Honor directed the excavation and recovery of a Punic shipwreck, dated to the 3rd Century BC.
