Amongst his most notable discoveries is that of a 2nd century BC Roman shipwreck in Brazil, which predated Columbus's discovery by 1,700 years.
Most notable among the many honors bestowed on Mr. Marx was being made a Knight-commander in the Order of Isabel The Catholic for his duplication of an authentic voyage of Columbus' first voyage of exploration in the Nina II.
