via Focus Taiwan, 11 May 2019: A story from May about recent excavations in northern Taiwan, including one to locate a Spanish fort.
Multiple relics from different historical periods, including a Qing Dynasty blue and white porcelain medicine bottle, have been unearthed in Keelung during an excavation to find a city built by the Spaniards nearly 400 years ago.
The discovery was part of a joint project between Taiwanese and Spanish research teams which kicked off in early May at Heping Island in the northeastern Taiwanese city of Keelung.
It is aimed at locating a city named San Salvador constructed during Spain’s brief occupation of northern Taiwan from 1626-1642.
