Océano Atlántico

The news articles reference the Atlantic Ocean in two distinct historical contexts. The first article discusses Spanish shipwrecks, specifically mentioning the Santa María, one of Christopher Columbus' ships. The wreck is significant because its wood was used to build the first Spanish fort in America. The search for the Santa María remains a major archaeological and historical challenge. The second article references Argentina and the 50th anniversary of its coup d'état. While the article doesn't explicitly mention the Atlantic Ocean, Argentina's eastern border is the Atlantic, making it geographically relevant. The anniversary is newsworthy due to the atrocities committed during the military dictatorship, including kidnapping, torture, and the disappearance of people, including the theft of babies. Both articles highlight the Atlantic Ocean's connection to significant historical events, from the age of exploration to more recent political turmoil.
