In 1387 two Prussian vessels were involved in shipwrecks on thecoast of Jutland. One, loaded mainly with cloth from Artois, Brabantand Flanders, was probably returning from the Low Countries; theother, carrying wax, furs, copper and iron, must have been headingfrom one of the Prussian ports to western Europe. The paper dis-cusses the goods carried by the two vessels and seeks to identifythe owners of the cargoes, who came mainly from Torun ́. The in-vestigation shows that the two shipwrecks can be seen as a repre-sentative sample of Prussian trade in the late Middle Ages
