However, when an ancient shipwreck is pulled from the water, the process of acidification can start and they can begin to crumble. In addition to structural changes from the drying of the wood – causing shrinking and cracking – iron present in features such as nails, combined with sulphur from bacteria, creates the compound ‘iron sulphide’.
