Dear list members!

Does anyone have any tips, experience or references of the use of films and photography as a material source in archaeological investigations or theoretical discussion about such a thing?

As the material that me and Mirja Arnshav at the Maritime Museum in Stockholm are currently looking at are so deep on the ocean bed that it can only been investigated by ROV I was wondering if there are any other cases, maritime or on land, where films and photographs have been the main or only material? Maybe cases within historical or contemporary archaeology where the material itself is gone and investigations are done through records?

All ideas most welcome!

All the best
