BEIJING, Sept. 24 (Xinhua) -- Chinese archeologists have found a shipwreck, confirmed to be the warship Jingyuan sunk by the Japanese navy during the Sino-Japanese War (1894-1895), according to the National Cultural Heritage Administration (NCHA).

The National Center of Underwater Cultural Heritage, together with archeological research institutes from northeast China's Liaoning Province, found the warship after a two-month investigation near the city of Zhuanghe in Liaoning, the NCHA said.

The underwater investigation, which ran between July and September, also found more than 500 relics made of iron, glass, porcelain, leather, and other materials.

The archeologists identified the shipwreck, which was located on the seabed 12 meters underwater with its main body covered with sludge, on Sept. 15 from a plate carrying the warship's name.

The finding is of great value to research related to China's modern history as well as the history of the navy and warfare, and it offers precious materials for the research of the world history of naval ships, said Song Xinchao, deputy head of the NCHA.

The Sino-Japanese naval war relics have been on the agenda of Chinese underwater archeological research in recent years, with Zhiyuan, another warship sunk by the Japanese navy, found four years ago and confirmed a year later.
