Hunley skull found with possible bellows aids study
In Charleston a skull was recovered from the Confederate submarine H L Hunley along with what appears to be a bellows, potentially helping researchers reconstruct the vessel's final moments. The Hunley’s nine crew perished on February 17, 1864 after detonating an explosive against the Housatonic. The wreck was raised last year and moved to a conservation lab at the old Charleston Navy base.
