More of Jamestowne

I know...more photos from Jamestowne. Boy did my human went camera happy or what. But I have to admit we did spend a whole day there so that says a lot for why so many photos.

It was an amazing place to realize that this place. This small a little over one acre triangle was the start of the United States. That over 400 yrs so much is still being learned about a small triangle fort.

Only the best of bones,

This was one of the burial sites found. Some bodies were dated 1607-1608. Just before the "starving time".

A pipe bowl, and other artifacts.

The marker of where the body of who is believed to have been Captain Gosnold was found. The people are still trying to DNA type the body to make sure it was him. But so far everything is pointing in that direction.
