Chinese ceramic wares were exported from Ningbo in Zhejiang Province to Korea and Japan in mass quantities. An early 14th-century wreck of a large Chinese ship traveling to Japan was discovered in 1976 off the coast of Sinan, South Korea. Its cargo included white porcelain, greenwaes, and blackwares from Fujian. The salavage effort recovered 20,000 ceramics.
