It was among these shoals and hidden reefs that all 19 ships of the New Spain Fleet, under the command of Admiral Manuel Serrano, foundered and sank during a storm in 1631. Due to the threat posed by the reefs and islands of the Campeche Bank, the names and approximate locations of these ships appear on the earliest maps of the New World; yet they are among the least explored areas within the Gulf of Mexico. Over the past several years, Dr. Pilar Luna Erreguerena has carried out research regarding the New Spain Fleet in the archives of Spain, Cuba, and Mexico. She and her team from the National Institute of Anthropology and History (INAH) have identified 24 sites and recorded 150 targets along the Campeche Bank, the majority of which still await inspection. The treasure galleon Nuestra Señora del Juncal remains elusive. In 2008, the Waitt Institute for Discovery partnered with Mexicos National Institute of Anthropology and History (INAH) for this exploratory survey of Campeche and Chinchorro Banks.

May 28 (Bloomberg) -- Bloomberg's David Tweed reports from Madrid about the financial position of Spanish savings banks. The so-called cajas helped fuel Spain's housing boom, accounting for about 50 percent of loans, and since the property crash triggered by the country's worst recession in 60 years the lenders have been under pressure to merge. The Bank of Spain seized CajaSur on May 22 after the bank lost almost 600 million euros ($742 million) in 2009.
