Conventional wisdom held that the original fort site had been swallowed by the constant erosion of the James River. Jamestown Rediscovery: a world uncovered tells the compelling story of the discovery of the first permanent English settlement in America. Hosted by veteran television journalist Roger Mudd, the program follows this remarkable journey by the archaeologists of the Association for the Preservation of Virginia Antiquities. Director of Archaeology Dr. William Kelso provides an inside look at the process of modern archaeology, from how simple stains in the soil show the "footprint" of the fort to unearthing the remains of one of the colony's first settlers. Jamestown Rediscovery is a fascinating adventure into America's past, exploring how what happened nearly four centuries ago still has meaning today. The 48 minute video is available from: |
