As Horrell noted, the well-preserved nature of the anchor stock suggests that other wooden artifacts, including other remains from wooden ships, could be equally well-preserved. The most interesting anomalies, which signal various degrees of ferrous, or iron, material hidden below, are clustered together, which could indicate multiple components of a shipwreck site.
The volcanic geology of the area, which could present challenges by influencing the local magnetic field, also could actually benefit the researchers in the long run. Even more importantly, the ballast would likely have helped to preserve the wooden hull beneath them. In all, the archaeologists are searching for the remains of two fleets of Spanish ships, sunk a year apart.

His acceptance by the Indians and even his popularity as a relatively benign ruler was such that he could have established Mexico as an independent kingdom.
Indeed, this is what the Council of the Indies feared. But his upbringing in a feudal world in which the king commanded absolute allegiance was against it.
