The
La Salle-Griffon Project
Team
Currently, the Great
Lakes Exploration Group, the Republic of France, the Field
Museum, and the State of Michigan
have an interest in the wreck site.
Great Lakes is making every effort
to forge a unique public/private
endeavor that would preserve the
historical and archaeological value
of the find while also making it
available for further study.
The Great Lakes Exploration
Group has filed an admiralty arrest
to bring the wreck under the protection
of the court. Great Lakes hopes
to be able to continue to work with
the Field Museum to excavate and
recover the vessel.
The Field Museum is
involved because of the historic
and academic significance of this
Great Lakes discovery. Archeologist
Dr. Scott Demel has been instrumental
in providing guidance and advice
to the Great Lakes group in the
preliminary exploration in the area.
Dr. Demel is also actively facilitating
cooperation between the Great Lakes
Exploration Group and the State
of Michigan.
