How ancient wooden wrecks survive on the seabed

Could more ancient wooden wrecks survive at depth?

Yes, when a wreck descends gently, avoids crushing pressure, and settles where chemistry and marine organisms do not rapidly consume it.

A ship that glides or slows through sufficiently deep water may reach the bottom without shattering on impact. It must also avoid depths where pressure crushes surviving structure. Low-oxygen or otherwise unfavorable conditions for wood-eating organisms can then preserve material for centuries. The Black Sea is an especially promising place to find Phoenician and other ancient wrecks.
